Patent number: 11670024Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed configured to train an autoencoder using images that include faces, wherein the autoencoder comprises an input layer, an encoder configured to output a latent image from a corresponding input image, and a decoder configured to attempt to reconstruct the input image from the latent image. An image sequence of a face exhibiting a plurality of facial expressions and transitions between facial expressions is generated and accessed. Images of the plurality of facial expressions and transitions between facial expressions are captured from a plurality of different angles and using different lighting. An autoencoder is trained using source images that include the face with different facial expressions captured at different angles with different lighting, and using destination images that include a destination face.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2021Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Neon Evolution Inc.Inventors: Cody Gustave Berlin, Carl Davis Bogan, III, Kenneth Michael Lande, Jacob Myles Laser, Brian Sung Lee, Anders Øland

Publication number: 20230049729Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed configured to train an autoencoder. A data training set is generated comprising images of different faces. A first autoencoder configuration is generated, comprising a first encoder, and a first decoder. The first autoencoder configuration is trained using dataset images, wherein weights associated with the first encoder and weights associated with the first decoder are modified. A second autoencoder configuration is generated comprising the first encoder and a second decoder. The second decoder is trained using images of a first target face. First encoder weights are substantially maintained, and weights associated with the second decoder are modified. An autoencoder comprising the trained first encoder and the trained second decoder generates an output using a source image of a first face having a facial expression, where the facial expression of the first face from the source image is applied to the first specific target face.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2022Publication date: February 16, 2023Inventors: Cody Gustave Berlin, Carl Davis Bogan, III, Kenneth Michael Lande, Anders Øland, Davide Toniolo, Alessia Bertugli, Dario Bertazioli, Brian Sung Lee

Publication number: 20220335536Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media that support local and cloud-based tax determination operations. In some examples, a transaction system may execute a local tax engine to enable localized tax calculation services in a lightweight footprint while still achieving one or more benefits of a cloud-based system (e.g., technical support and automatic updates of software and tax content). As a result, some aspects of the present disclosure may enable a “full power” tax engine that is local to a transactional system, such as an edge device, while also enabling the tax engine to automatically sync back to a cloud-based system, such as to receive one or more of a configuration update, a software release, a software update, or updated tax content. Further, the transaction system may transmit results of tax calculations to the cloud-based system, such as for reporting, compliance, or both.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2022Publication date: October 20, 2022Inventors: Christopher Reich, Carl Davis, Ray Grove, Anu Dodda, Emre Caglar, Vitaly Tomlin, Pankaj Joshi, Debraj Roy, Paul Shadbolt

Patent number: 10552667Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed configured to pre-train an autoencoder using images that include faces, wherein the autoencoder comprises an input layer, an encoder configured to output a latent image from a corresponding input image, and a decoder configured to attempt to reconstruct the input image from the latent image. An image sequence of a CGI sculpted and textured face exhibiting a plurality of facial expressions and transitions between facial expressions is accessed. Images of the plurality of facial expressions and transitions between facial expressions are captured from a plurality of different angles. The pre-trained autoencoder is trained using source images that include a CGI face with different facial expressions captured at different angles, and using destination images that include a real face. The trained autoencoder is used to generate an output where the real face in the destination images is swapped with the CGI face, while preserving expressions of the real face.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2019Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: Neon Evolution Inc.Inventors: Carl Davis Bogan, III, Kenneth Michael Lande, Jacob Myles Laser, Brian Sung Lee

Publication number: 20050016664Abstract: The present invention is directed to the welding of a trailing sheet tail on a roll of sheet material to an underlying layer of the sheet material on the roll to form a finished roll product ready for packaging. A device for effecting the welding comprises a thermally conductive, heat sealing disk mounted for rotation about an axis, and a heating element for heating an inner portion of the disk so as to cause thermal conduction through an outer portion of the disk towards an outer peripheral surface thereof. The heat sealing disk is mounted for engagement with the outer surface of the trailing sheet tail to weld this tail to the underlying layer of sheet material on the roll.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2003Publication date: January 27, 2005Inventors: Carl Davis, Joseph Zeeben, Robert Davidovich
