Abstract

An automobile image processing method and apparatus, and a readable storage medium are provided. A to-be-processed image collected by a collecting point of automobile images is obtained, where the collecting point is provided on a self-driving device; the to-be-processed image is processed using a deep learning model, and a state parameter of an automobile in the to-be-processed image is outputted; and an automobile behavior in the to-be-processed image is determined according to the state parameter. Thus the to-be-processed image collected by the collecting point can be processed using the deep learning model to obtain the state parameter for determining the automobile behavior, and thus the automobile behavior can be obtained, thereby providing a foundation and a basis for the self-driving device to adjust the driving strategy according to the road condition.
