  • Patent number: 11983955
    Abstract: Image fingerprints (embeddings) are generated by an image fingerprinting model and indexed with an approximate nearest neighbors (ANN) model trained to identify the most similar fingerprint based on a subject embedding. For image matching, a score is provided that indicates a similarity between the input embedding and the most similar identified embedding, which allows for matching even when an image has been distorted, rotated, cropped, or otherwise modified. For image classification, the embeddings in the index are clustered and the clusters are labeled. Users can provide just a few images to add to the index as a labeled cluster. The ANN model returns a score and label of the most similar identified embedding for labeling the subject image if the score exceeds a threshold. As improvements are made to the image fingerprinting model, a converter model is trained to convert the original embeddings to be compatible with the new embeddings.

  • Patent number: 11985629
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed for a vehicle-capable user equipment (vUE) operable for sensing-based distributed scheduling 5 of event-based mission critical (MC) vehicle-to everything (V2X) traffic. The vUE can sense sidelink control information (SCI) for semi persistent scheduling (SPS) resource selection from one or more SCI messages received in one or more physical sidelink control channels (PSCCHs) from one or more neighboring vUEs. The vUE can identify: a number of MC resources to transmit event10 based MC data with a selected number of repetitions within a latency budget, wherein the MC resources include one or more of MC-SCI or MC data with the selected number of repetitions; and a number of available resources to transmit event-based MC data within the latency budget. The vUE can select revocable resources from one or more scheduled low-priority resources based on the sensed SCI for SPS resource selection.

  • Publication number: 20240154513
    Abstract: A modular multilevel converter and a control method are provided. When an AC input voltage from a power grid is lower than a drop threshold value and the modular multilevel converter is in a drop state, the idle upper bridge arm submodules of the n upper bridge arm submodules and the idle lower bridge arm submodules of the n lower bridge arm submodules are in the on-state. Consequently, the total number of the on-state upper bridge arm submodules and the on-state lower bridge arm submodules is increased to be greater than n. Since the average value of the DC voltages received by the upper bridge arm submodules or the lower bridge arm submodules is decreased, the voltage stress of the total submodule capacitor voltage of the on-state upper bridge arm submodules and the on-state lower bridge arm submodules is reduced.
