  • Publication number: 20240071060
    Abstract: Example aspects of the present disclosure relate to an example computer-implemented method for data annotation for training machine perception models. The example method can include (a) receiving source sensor data descriptive of an object, the source sensor data having a source reference frame of at least three dimensions, wherein the source sensor data includes annotated data associated with the object; (b) receiving target sensor data descriptive of the object, the target sensor data having a target reference frame of at least two dimensions; (c) providing an input to a machine-learned boundary recognition model, wherein the input includes the target sensor data and a projection of the source sensor data into the target reference frame; and (d) determining, using the machine-learned boundary recognition model, a bounded portion of the target sensor data, wherein the bounded portion indicates a subset of the target sensor data descriptive of the object.

  • Patent number: 8065293
    Abstract: An indexing system uses a graph-like data structure that clusters features indexes together. The minimum atomic value in the data structure is represented as a leaf node which is either a single feature index or a sequence of two or more feature indexes when a minimum sequence length is imposed. Root nodes are formed as clustered collections of leaf nodes and/or other root nodes. Context nodes are formed from root nodes that are associated with content that is being indexed. Links between a root node and other nodes each include a sequence order value that is used to maintain the sequencing order for feature indexes relative to the root node. The collection of nodes forms a graph-like data structure, where each context node is indexed according to the sequenced pattern of feature indexes. Clusters can be split, merged, and promoted to increase the efficiency in searching the data structure.

  • Publication number: 20100057452
    Abstract: The described implementations relate to speech interfaces and in some instances to speech pattern recognition techniques that enable speech interfaces. One system includes a feature pipeline configured to produce speech feature vectors from input speech. This system also includes a classifier pipeline configured to classify individual speech feature vectors utilizing multi-level classification.
