  • Publication number: 20250053850
    Abstract: A system and related method, including memory and processing circuitry, which is to receive multiple weights from a host device to implement an instantiation of a model on the storage device. The instantiation of the model includes multiple weights, and each weight is determined using another instantiation of the model that was trained on the host device. The processing circuitry is then to generate inference information using the instantiation of the model implemented on the storage device. The processing circuitry is further to receive multiple updated weights from the host device and update the instantiation of the model based on the multiple updated weights to implement an updated instantiation of the model on the storage device. The processing circuitry is then to generate updated inference information on the storage device using the updated instantiation of the model based on at least one signal to be processed by the processing circuitry.

  • Publication number: 20240361461
    Abstract: A lidar system, preferably including one or more optical emitters, optical detectors, beam directors, and/or processing modules. A method for environment mapping and/or lidar data analysis, preferably including generating a spatial representation and processing the spatial representation. The method can optionally include sampling lidar data, generating temporal representations, and/or detecting object locations. The lidar system is preferably operable and/or configured to perform the method for environment mapping and/or lidar data analysis, but can additionally or alternatively have any other suitable functionality and/or be configured in any other suitable manner. The method for environment mapping and/or lidar data analysis is preferably performed using the lidar system, but can additionally or alternatively be performed using any other suitable system.
