Abstract: A method for determining an encoder architecture of a convolutional neural network configured to process image processing tasks. For each image processing task), characteristic scale distribution is calculated based on training data. Encoder architecture candidates are generated, each including a shared encoder layer providing computational operations for image processing tasks and branches which span over encoder layers providing at least partly different computational operations for the image processing tasks. Each branch is associated with a certain image processing task. Receptive encoder layer field sizes and assessment measures are calculated, each assessment measure referring to a combination of a certain encoder architecture and a certain image processing task, and including information regarding matching quality of characteristic scale distribution associated with the assessment measure to the receptive field sizes of the encoder layers.

Abstract: A magnetic momentum transfer generator utilizes three or more magnets aligned with each other. A first control magnet is positioned outside a coil. A second magnet is positioned within the windings of the coil and a third magnet is positioned on the opposite side of the coil opposite the control magnet. When the control magnet rotated or moved, mutual magnetic flux lines generated by all three magnets and passing through the coil winding are aligned at right angles to the coil, thereby inducing a maximum voltage at the terminals. This generator is particularly useful for short burst radio micro-transmitters that can be used for battery-less and wireless switching applications.

Abstract: The present disclosure is of energy harvesting generators producing power to electrical loads by a novel method of the inline triggering of a horizontal pendulum that vertically oscillates for an established time duration. The horizontal pendulum component has disposed and fixed, a magnet whose travel is under the direct influence of the motion of the pendulum component. This oscillation of the pendulum and its disposed magnet is situated proximal to an electrical coil that has disposed a magnet enclosure with a disposed magnet that is in the center of the coil arrangement. The instant triggering is accomplished by a novel trigger whose end has a first trigger tooth that upon an external applied force comes in contact with a second trigger tooth that forces the pendulum downward beyond it release position to allow the pendulum and magnet to freely oscillate. Converse action occurs when the triggering force is instantly removed.

Abstract: The present disclosure is of energy harvesting generators producing power to electrical loads by a novel method of a “state-change” tensor component of the magnetic field intensity of a Neodymium spherical magnet; and the accumulative directional Lorentz Force created by a moving high permeability magnetic steel toroid bi-directional guide that causes multi degrees of rotational freedom on the spherical Neodymium magnet. This action of the “state-change” Lorentz Force tensor, is caused by a sudden “state-change” in the position of the moving high permeability magnetic steel toroid, when the spherical Neodymium magnet is surrounded by an electric coil. This action produces an induced current to flow when the coil is connected to an electric load, and this action produces a voltage drop across the electric load.

Abstract: A novel method of triggering an electromagnetic type energy harvesting generator that has disposed a spherical magnet, surrounded by a coil of wire and rotatable in an enclosure about an axis with an axially protruding paddle member, axially aligned dual offset paddle members, or other flick trigger mechanism structure situated tangent along the surface of the spherical magnet enclosure, wherein this enclosed magnet is centred within the electrical coil, which is free to rotate about its axis. The magnet is held in a static state rotational position by two opposite outwardly disposed flux focus magnets. The spherical magnet and the focus magnets are all in a magnetic attractive circuit; and the magnetic flux lines are in a static field concentration throughout the coil windings aided by the focus magnets. A reciprocating trigger device means with a contact finger is utilized to engage the axially protruding paddle member(s).

Abstract: A method of triggering an electromagnetic energy harvesting generator that has disposed two opposite magnets, and each rotatable either clockwise or anti-clockwise within an enclosure about an axis with an axially protruding paddle member each, and movable axially aligned dual offset paddle members, or other flick trigger mechanism structures situated tangent along the surface of the magnets each on opposite sides of a coil that has in its centre, a stationary “centre-field-directive magnet” whose magnetic field poles are centrally common to each opposite bi-directional rotatable opposite magnets. By way of magnetic attractive forces, the two opposite rotatable magnets on opposite sides of the coil are in magnetic equilibrium by the centre stationary magnet disposed within the coil's centre region. Either of the protruding paddle members can be “independently and sequentially pushed” by an external force to cause rotation of either rotatable magnet that is common to each protruding paddle member.
