  • Patent number: 9752960
    Abstract: A system and method for anomaly detection is provided. The system (100) and method (200) include utilizing one or more processors, such as in a server, for receiving (108) operational and dynamics data (104) from sensors associated with devices (102), filtering the data, establishing a set of baseline dynamics data and eliminating data dependencies (110). The system and method further include generating an expected level of data variation (112), identifying an anomaly based on a deviation of the device data from the baseline data normalized by the expected level of data variation (114), optionally correlating an anomaly with potential causes, and providing an output indicating an anomaly (116).

  • Patent number: 9756316
    Abstract: Multi-view autostereoscopic displays provide an immersive, glasses-free 3D viewing experience, but they preferably use correctly filtered content from multiple viewpoints. The filtered content, however, may not be easily obtained with current stereoscopic production pipelines. The proposed method and system takes a stereoscopic video as an input and converts it to multi-view and filtered video streams that may be used to drive multi-view autostereoscopic displays. The method combines a phase-based video magnification and an interperspective antialiasing into a single filtering process. The whole algorithm is simple and may be efficiently implemented on current GPUs to yield real-time performance. Furthermore, the ability to retarget disparity is naturally supported. The method is robust and works transparent materials, and specularities. The method provides superior results when compared to the state-of-the-art depth-based rendering methods.
