Development of an Object Detection Model Using Hybrid Data Synthesis

Outline

This paper addresses the challenges of data scarcity and high data acquisition costs in training robust object detection models in complex industrial environments such as offshore oil platforms. Data collection in hazardous environments often limits the development of autonomous inspection systems. To address these challenges, we propose a hybrid data synthesis pipeline that integrates procedural rendering and AI-based video generation. BlenderProc is used to generate realistic images through domain randomization, and NVIDIA's Cosmos-Predict2 generates temporally varying, physically consistent video sequences. A YOLO-based detector trained on a composite dataset combining real and synthetic data outperforms a model trained solely on real images. A 1:1 ratio of real and synthetic samples achieved the highest accuracy.

Takeaways, Limitations

Synthetic data generation is a viable, cost-effective, and secure strategy for developing reliable perception systems in safety-critical, resource-constrained industrial applications.
The highest accuracy was achieved at a 1:1 ratio of real and synthetic data.
This paper focuses on a synthetic data generation pipeline, which limits its applicability to specific industrial environments.
Further research is needed to determine the extent to which Cosmos-Predict2's physical consistency guarantees contribute to improving object detection performance.
Pipelines that rely on specific tools, such as BlenderProc and Cosmos-Predict2, may limit generalization to other environments.
