  • Patent number: 11126330
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a training application generates a trained encoder that automatically generates shape embeddings having a first size and representing three-dimensional (3D) geometry shapes, First, the training application generates a different view activation for each of multiple views associated with a first 3D geometry based on a first convolutional neural network (CNN) block. The training application then aggregates the view activations to generate a tiled activation. Subsequently, the training application generates a first shape embedding having the first size based on the tiled activation and a second CNN block. The training application then generates multiple re-constructed views based on the first shape embedding. The training application performs training operation(s) on at least one of the first CNN block and the second CNN block based on the views and the re-constructed views to generate the trained encoder.

  • Patent number: 11119624
    Abstract: An electronic device may include a display for displaying image content to a user and dynamic image stabilization circuitry for dynamically compensating the image content if the device is moving unpredictably to help keep the image content aligned with the user's gaze. The electronic device may include sensors for detecting the displacement of the device. The dynamic image stabilization circuitry may include a usage scenario detection circuit and a content displacement compensation calculation circuit. The usage scenario detection circuit receives data from the sensors and infers a usage scenario based on the sensor data. The content displacement compensation calculation circuit uses the inferred usage scenario to compute a displacement amount by which to adjust image content. When motion stops, the image content may gradually drift back to the center of the display.
