  • Patent number: 12694653
    Abstract: A computer that includes a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions executable by the processor to plot three-dimensional positions of labeled cuboids from successive frames between a first keyframe and a second keyframe of a densely labeled video sequence. A sparsely labeled video sequence can be generated by removing labeled cuboids from the densely labeled video sequence with positions that are within a user-selected distance from a line extending from a position of the labeled cuboid in the first keyframe to a position of the labeled cuboid in the second keyframe. The sparsely labeled video sequence can be output for training a machine learning system.
