  • Publication number: 20250187609
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of managing a fleet of autonomous vehicles providing trip services. The method includes receiving information identifying an intermediate destination and a final destination for a trip. In this example, the intermediate destination is a destination where an autonomous vehicle will drop off and wait for a passenger in order to continue the trip, and the final destination is a destination where the trip ends. The method also includes determining an amount of waiting time the vehicle is likely to be waiting for the passenger at the intermediate destination, determining how a vehicle of the fleet of autonomous vehicles should spend the amount of waiting time, and sending an instruction to the vehicle, based on the determination of how the vehicle should spend the amount of waiting time.

  • Publication number: 20250191380
    Abstract: A method of identifying road distress on a road based on imagery of the road is disclosed. The method is performed by a processor and comprises the steps of: identifying a region of interest from road regions detected in the imagery of the road; detecting one or more road distresses present in the region of interest by identifying features associated with physical characteristics related to road distress in an original image comprising the region of interest; detecting one or more road distresses present in the region of interest by identifying features associated with physical characteristics related to road distress in a corrected image obtained by applying at least one of optical distortion correction and perspective distortion correction to the original image comprising the region of interest; and identifying one or more road distresses by combining the detection based on the original image and the detection based on the corrected image.

  • Patent number: 12327564
    Abstract: Techniques for performing voice-based user recognition are described. When a device receives audio data corresponding to a spoken user input, the device may generate spoken user input embedding data representing speech characteristics of the spoken user input. The device may also identify user embedding data representing speech characteristics of a user known to the device. A machine learning (ML) model may process the spoken user input embedding data to generate reduced spoken user input embedding data including a reduced number of dimensions, where the reduced number of dimensions are functions of the higher number of dimensions of the spoken user input embedding data.
