  • Patent number: 12060082
    Abstract: Techniques are discussed for interaction probabilities associated with regions of an environment around a vehicle. An interaction probability of a region may indicate a likelihood an object positioned at the region will interact with the vehicle. A top-down multi-channel image representing a top-down view of the environment and objects therein may be generated and input to a machine learned (ML) model. The ML model may output a probability map, a portion of the probability map comprising a region and an interaction probability associated with the region that indicates a likelihood objects positioned at the region will interact with the vehicle. A priority for resource assignment or analysis may be determined based on the interaction probability for an object positioned in the region. Control of the vehicle may be performed based at least in part on the priority for resource assignment or analysis.

  • Publication number: 20240199083
    Abstract: A machine-learned architecture for estimating the cost determined by a cost function for a prediction node of a tree search for exploring potential paths for controlling a vehicle may include two portions: a set up portion that includes models trained to process static data and a second portion that processes dynamic object data. The respective portions of the architecture may comprise various models that determine intermediate outputs that may be projected into a space associated with estimated cost. That estimated cost may identify an estimate of an output of the cost function for paths that are based on a particular prediction node of the tree search.

  • Publication number: 20180165188
    Abstract: An improved garbage collection (“GC”) process configured to recover new blocks from used storage space is disclosed. After initiating the GC process for a flash memory in accordance with at least one of predefined triggering events, a first valid page within a first block marked as an erasable block is identified. Upon determining a first signature representing the content of the first valid page according to a predefined signature generator, the process identifies a second valid page within a second block as a duplicated page of the first valid page in response to the first signature. The process subsequently associates the logical block address (“LBA”) of the first valid page to the second valid page. In an alternative embodiment, page compression and sequential order of page arrangement can also be implemented to further enhance efficiency of garbage collection.
