  • Publication number: 20200184881
    Abstract: An LED display system has and LED display panel coupled to a driver circuitry. The driver circuitry includes a scrambled PWM generator, a register, and a memory. The scrambled PWM generator receives an image data from an external source and, after certain compensations, is sent to a scramble PWM generator to be distributed according to a new set of rules that involves a compensation image data K. Image data K can be an empirical value or obtained according a formula using coefficients p and q, which can be obtained by calibration.

  • Publication number: 20200167437
    Abstract: A simulation workflow manager obtains a set of parameters for simulation of a system and training of a reinforcement learning model for optimizing an application of the system. In response to obtaining the set of parameters, the simulation workflow manager configures a first compute node that includes a training application for training the reinforcement learning model. The simulation workflow manager also configures a second compute note with a simulation application to perform the simulation of the system in a simulation environment. Data is generated through execution of the simulation in the second compute node that is provided to the first compute node to cause the training application to use the data to train the reinforcement learning model.

  • Publication number: 20200167686
    Abstract: A simulation management service receives a request to perform reinforcement learning for a robotic device. The request can include computer-executable code defining a reinforcement function for training a reinforcement learning model for the robotic device. In response to the request, the simulation management service generates a simulation environment and injects the computer-executable code into a simulation application for the robotic device. Using the simulation application and the computer-executable code, the simulation management service performs the reinforcement learning within the simulation environment.
