Publication number: 20250139342Abstract: Embodiments herein use constraints from a target process (e.g., testing a semiconductor wafer or designing a new integrated circuit) and historical real-world samples (e.g., probe test sample, fault detection, or measured signals) to generate synthesized samples using AI synthesis embedded in a digital twin. These test samples can be combined with real-world test samples and then evaluated to determine next actions. In another example, a digital twin can use an new IC design and a design from an older, but related, IC to synthesize new IC design samples.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Arun Kumar CHANDRAN, Yao Cui FEHLIS

Patent number: 11488387Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for identifying an individual in a crowd. The method comprises the steps of capturing a plurality of crowd-viewing images using multiple image-capturing devices. For each image, a reference point within a facial contour of a person in the image is selected. The reference point is selected based on a facial feature on the facial contour of the person. The method further comprises the step of processing the image to obtain one or more angular measurements associated with a posture displayed by the person in the image. Based on the obtained angular measurements, location data of a predetermined body point of the person relative to the reference point is extracted.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2019Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Wen Zhang, Arun Kumar Chandran, Hui Lam Ong

Publication number: 20210350116Abstract: This document describes a system and method for identifying persons-of-interest based on images and/or information captured by image capturing devices and information provided by third party sources/databases. In particular, this document describes a system that comprises at least one set of image capturing devices that are provided at a particular location-of-interest, a remote database that is configured to receive the captured images and its associated information from the set of image capturing devices, a server and a third party database whereby the remote database, the server and the third party database are all communicatively connected together. The server is then configured to utilize information from the remote database and the third party database to identify persons-of-interest from the images of individuals that were captured by the set of image capturing devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2021Publication date: November 11, 2021Inventors: Yan Shixing, Arun Kumar Chandran
