Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for image categorization using a visual language model. A set of images is clustered into clusters respectively corresponding to differently categorized objects. Names are respectively assigned to the clusters, and image captions are respectively generated for the clusters using the names. The image captions and respective images represent image-text pairs. Those image-text pairs are input to the visual language model as context for a query. The query is then input to the visual language model. The query includes a request to categorize a query image of a class represented in the context. In response to the query, the visual language model performs an open-ended generative categorization of the query image.

Abstract: The invention provides a system configured to adjust a data rate of an image capturing device. The system comprises a computing device comprising a data processor, and a computer program product comprising a computer vision system for categorizing living beings having a pose that appear in a live video stream. The computer program product, when running on the data processor, receives a live video stream from the image capturing device at a first data rate, where the live video stream comprises a time slice with at least one frame comprising a living being having a pose; applies the computer vision system to the time slice for categorizing the living being, resulting in a category; and signals the image capturing device to set the live video stream at a second data rate, different from the first data rate and based upon the category.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for kernel continuing learning. A dataset is obtained that corresponds to a classification task. Feature extraction is performed on the dataset using an artificial neural network. A kernel is constructed using features extracted during that feature extraction for use in performing the classification task. More particularly, during training, a coreset dataset corresponding to the classification task is saved; and during subsequent inference, the coreset dataset is retrieved and used to construct a task-specific kernel for classification.
