  • Patent number: 11557917
    Abstract: A switched mode power supply comprises a communication interface including an address terminal configured to couple to an external resistor for setting a communication address of the switched mode power supply. A control circuit is configured to determine the value of the external resistor a first time with a first technique and set the communication address of the switched mode power supply based on the value of the external resistor determined using the first technique if the value of the external resistor is greater than the threshold value. The control circuit is also configured to, if the value of the external resistor is less than the threshold value, determine the value of the external resistor a second time with a second technique and set the communication address of the switched mode power supply based on the value of the external resistor determined using the second technique.

  • Publication number: 20220414367
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for implementing video action recognition is provided. The method includes receiving a video stream comprising user movement actions. Skeleton points associated with a video representation of a user executing the user movement actions are extracted and categorized with respect to multiple digital levels. Initial visual windows points are generated within video frames and an average movement distance for the group of skeleton points are determined with respect to the video frames. In response, sizes for the visual windows are adjusted and feature vectors are extracted from the group of skeleton points. Point coordinates of the skeleton points are extracted and linked with the feature vectors. A convolutional neural network associated with linking the feature vectors with the point coordinates is generated and the video stream is enabled with respect to video action recognition associated with accurate presentation of the video stream.

  • Patent number: 11514605
    Abstract: Computer automated interactive activity recognition based on keypoint detection includes retrieving, by one or more processors, a temporal sequence of image frames from a video recording. The one or more processors identify first and second keypoints in each of the image frames in the temporal sequence using machine learning techniques. The first keypoints are associated with an object in the temporal sequence of image frames while the second keypoints are associated with an individual interacting with the object. The one or more processors combine the first keypoints with the second keypoints and extract spatial-temporal features from the combination that are used to train a classification model based on which interactive activities can be recognized.
