  • Publication number: 20250094480
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed herein for generating and using a knowledge base of information extracted from documents. The techniques include accessing a document comprising text and dividing the document into a plurality of chunks of text. The chunks are indexed by storing each chunk mapped to respective identifying metadata including a chunk index for each chunk. A query is received and a chunk relevant to the query is identified. A prompt is formulated including the query, the identified relevant chunk, and a subsequent chunk. The prompt is provided to a language model and output is received from the language model based on the prompt. An answer to the query is returned based on the received output.

  • Publication number: 20250094717
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for returning references associated with an answer to a query. The techniques include accessing a text portion and identifying a plurality of sentences in the text portion. Each of the sentences is embedded to generate a respective plurality of text sentence embeddings. The text portion or a derivative thereof and a query are provided to a language model and a response to the query based on the text portion is received from the language model. A plurality of sentences are identified in the response. The plurality of sentences in the response is embedded to generate a plurality of response embeddings. The response embeddings are compared to the sentence embeddings to generate a similarity score for each sentence embedding-response embedding pair. Based on the similarity scores, an indication of a subset of the plurality of sentences is output with the response to the query.

  • Publication number: 20250083704
    Abstract: In various examples, a safety decomposition architecture for autonomous machine applications is presented that uses two or more individual safety assessments to satisfy a higher safety integrity level (e.g., ASIL D). For example, a behavior planner may be used as a primary planning component, and a collision avoidance feature may be used as a diverse safety monitoring component—such that both may redundantly and independently prevent violation of safety goals. In addition, robustness of the system may be improved as single point and systematic failures may be avoided due to the requirement that two independent failures—e.g., of the behavior planner component and the collision avoidance component—occur simultaneously to cause a violation of the safety goals.

  • Publication number: 20250047072
    Abstract: In one example, a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) may include an active region to produce light at a wavelength, an emission surface to emit the light at the wavelength, a first oxide region spaced apart from the active region by a distance of at least a half-wavelength of the wavelength, a first oxide aperture in the first oxide region, a second oxide region between the first oxide region and the second oxide region, and a second oxide aperture in the second oxide region. The emitted light may have a divergence angle that is based on the respective positions and thicknesses of the first oxide region and the second oxide region.
