  • Patent number: 11861490
    Abstract: A machine learning environment utilizing training data generated by customer environments. A reinforced learning machine learning environment receives and processes training data generated by independently hosted, or decoupled, customer environments. The reinforced learning machine learning environment corresponds to machine learning clusters that receive and process training data sets provided by the decoupled customer environments. The customer environments include an agent process that collects training data and forwards the training data to the machine learning clusters without exposing the customer environment. The machine learning clusters can be configured in a manner to automatically process the training data without requiring additional user inputs or controls to configured the application of the reinforced learning machine learning processes.

  • Patent number: 10474926
    Abstract: Features related to systems and methods expediting generation of a machine learning model, such as an image recognition model, are described. Existing machine learning models are analyzed to identify a starting point for creating the new machine learning model. An existing machine learning model can suggest learning parameters (e.g., training parameters or structural features of the model) that can be used to expedite the generating and training process along with training data that can augment the training of the new machine learning model.

  • Patent number: 10467729
    Abstract: A method and system for a deep learning-based approach to image processing to increase a level of optical zooming and increasing the resolution associated with a captured image. The system includes an image capture device to generate a display of a field of view (e.g., of a scene within a viewable range of a lens of the image capture device). An indication of a desired zoom level (e.g., 1.1× to 5×) is received, and, based on this selection, a portion of the field of view is cropped. In one embodiment, the cropped portion displayed by the image capture device for a user's inspection, prior to the capturing of a low resolution image. The low resolution image is provided to an artificial neural network trained to apply a resolution up-scaling model to transform the low resolution image to a high resolution image of the cropped portion.

  • Patent number: 10360482
    Abstract: Features related to systems and methods for generating a machine learning model that is a composite of at least two other models (e.g., crowd-sourced models contributed by users) are described. Each of the contributed models provide output values that may not be to scale. To account for these differences, a normalization factor for a first machine learning model is generated to adjust values produced by the first machine learning model to correspond with results from the second machine learning model. The crowd-sourced models along with the normalization factor are included in the new image model generated in the claims.

  • Patent number: 10321132
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting motion in compressed video are provided. Some methods can include parsing a stream of compressed video, obtaining macroblock size information from the parsed stream, computing factors derived from the macroblock size information, computing adaptive threshold values derived from relative frame characteristics of the compressed video, comparing the factors derived from the macroblock size information with the adaptive threshold values, and detecting motion based upon the comparing when at least one of the factors exceeds at least one of the adaptive threshold values. In some embodiments, detecting the motion can include performing spatio-temporal filtering on macroblocks in which the motion is detected or performing spatio-temporal filtering on at least one non-motion macroblock.

  • Patent number: 9792524
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for improving optical character recognition approaches through the use of gap shifting. A text detection process is performed upon an image to detect a first region of text. A second region that is in line with the first region is shifted to reduce a gap between the first region and the second region, thereby creating a modified image. The text detection process is performed upon the modified image in order to detect text within the second region.
