This study trained a network to perceive three-dimensional motion information of binocular vision targets, capable of providing real-time three-dimensional coordinates, velocity, and acceleration, with basic spatiotemporal perception capability. It understood the ability of neural networks to fit nonlinear problems from the perspective of PID. A single-layer neural network was considered as using a second-order difference equation and nonlinearity to describe local problems. Multilayer networks gradually transform raw representations to desired representations through multiple combinations.
Some reference principles for designing neural networks were analyzed, resulting in a relatively small PID convolutional neural network with a total of 17 layers and 413,000 parameters. A simple but practical feature reuse method was implemented through concatenation and pooling. The network was trained and tested using simulated datasets of randomly moving balls, and the experimental results showed that prediction accuracy was close to the upper limit representable by the input image resolution.
The results and errors were analyzed, highlighting existing shortcomings and potential directions for improvement. Finally, the advantages of high-dimensional convolution in enhancing computational efficiency and feature space utilization were discussed, along with the potential benefits of using PID information to implement memory and attention mechanisms.
