COMPUTING DEVICE AND METHOD USING A NEURAL NETWORK TO BYPASS CALIBRATION DATA OF AN INFRARED SENSOR

Method and computing device using a neural network to bypass calibration data of an infrared sensor. A predictive model generated by a neural network training engine is stored by the computing device. The computing device determines a two-dimensional (2D) matrix of raw sensor data. Each raw sensor datum is representative of heat energy collected by the infrared sensor. The computing device executes a neural network inference engine. The neural network inference engine implements the neural network using the predictive model for generating outputs based on inputs. The inputs comprise the 2D matrix of raw sensor data. The outputs comprise a 2D matrix of inferred temperatures. A method for training a neural network to bypass calibration data of an infrared sensor is also provided.
