System and method for reducing false negatives in object detection, including: extracting an object of interest from a respective image in a first set of training data that includes in distribution (ID) data. For each of the object of interest extracted from the respective image in the first set of training data: fusing the object of interest with an image from a second set of data that does not include any objects of interest to form a fused image; adding the fused image to the training data; and using the training data to train a detection model for object detection.

Method and system for reducing false positives in object detection neural networks caused by novel objects

A method and system of controlling an appliance includes: receiving, from a first home appliance, a request to start video image processing for detecting a motion gesture of a user; processing a sequence of image frames captured by a camera corresponding to the first home appliance to identify a first motion gesture; selecting a second home appliance as a target home appliance for the first motion gesture in accordance with one or more target selection criteria, including first target selection criteria based on a location of the user relative to the first home appliance and second target selection criteria based on a level of match between the first motion gesture and a first control gesture corresponding to the second home appliance; and generating a control command to control the second home appliance in accordance with the first control gesture corresponding to the second home appliance.
