  • Patent number: 11927502
    Abstract: In various examples, sensor data recorded in the real-world may be leveraged to generate transformed, additional, sensor data to test one or more functions of a vehicle—such as a function of an AEB, CMW, LDW, ALC, or ACC system. Sensor data recorded by the sensors may be augmented, transformed, or otherwise updated to represent sensor data corresponding to state information defined by a simulation test profile for testing the vehicle function(s). Once a set of test data has been generated, the test data may be processed by a system of the vehicle to determine the efficacy of the system with respect to any number of test criteria. As a result, a test set including additional or alternative instances of sensor data may be generated from real-world recorded sensor data to test a vehicle in a variety of test scenarios—including those that may be too dangerous to test in the real-world.

The current image is scaled to the next image relative to the optical center, wherein the scaling includes applying a scale vector to the first contour. A frame offset vector is determined, and the second contour is translated, based on the frame offset vector and the scale vector, to align the translated second contour to a focus of expansion. An image velocity is determined, based on the first contour and the translated second contour, wherein the image velocity is used to determine object movement from the image data.

  • Publication number: 20240070626
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing tip-pooling aggregation and distribution. In some implementations, data is extracted from a plurality of different data sources. The data is normalized to a same format. The normalized data, which is attributed to a remote identifier, is indexed to an identifier representing a same source as the remote identifier. Portions of the normalized data indexed to the same contribution source are allocated to buckets based on a contribution period and a role for the same contribution source and a rule applicable to the contribution period. Portions of the normalized data indexed to different contribution sources are aggregated in the buckets to different contribution sources according to the allocation rule. The aggregated portions of the normalized data are assigned to targets based on assignment rules applicable to the buckets and distribution targets active during the contribution period.

  • Patent number: 11893799
    Abstract: Technologies and techniques for vehicle perception. Contours are extracted from image data, and a first and second contour of a current image and next image are determined along a plurality of image row boundaries, wherein the contours includes a plurality of contour points linked to each other via respective edges. An image velocity vector is applied to project each of the plurality of first contour points to the next image, wherein at least some of the projected first contour points are not located on an image row boundary. The projected contour points are processed to determine projected edges forming a projected link between each projected contour point. The projected contour points are moved along the projected link to align each of the moved projected contour points to a respective image boundary. Each of the moved projected contour points are then linked to each of the second contour points.

  • Publication number: 20240039809
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods, media, and systems for right-sizing containerized workloads running on edge devices are disclosed. One example method includes receiving a manifest file including one or more runtime service level agreement (SLA) requirements and one or more upper bounds on resource allocation for running the workload on a software defined wide area network (SD-WAN) edge device. The workload on the SD-WAN edge device is started based on the manifest file. Telemetry data from the SD-WAN edge device is monitored, where the telemetry data includes resource usage data for running the workload on the SD-WAN edge device. A model for resource usage behavior of the workload running on the SD-WAN edge device is established based on the monitored telemetry data.

  • Publication number: 20240039808
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods, media, and systems for context based meta scheduling of containerized workloads across edge devices are disclosed. One example computer-implemented method includes receiving a manifest file that includes multiple context requirements of a workload, where the multiple context requirements include multiple runtime service level agreement (SLA) requirements of the workload. Telemetry data is received from multiple software defined wide area network (SD-WAN) edge devices, where the telemetry data includes respective context data of each of the multiple SD-WAN edge devices. A SD-WAN edge device is selected, based on the telemetry data and the multiple context requirements of the workload, from the multiple SD-WAN edge devices for placing the workload on the selected SD-WAN edge device, where the context data of the selected SD-WAN edge device meets the multiple context requirements of the workload. The workload is run on the selected SD-WAN edge device.

  • Publication number: 20240039804
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods, media, and systems for automating secured deployment of containerized workloads on edge devices are disclosed. One example computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a software defined wide area network (SD-WAN) edge device and from a remote manager, resource quotas for a compute service to be enabled at the SD-WAN edge device. Pre-deployment sanity checks are performed by confirming availability of resources satisfying the resource quotas, where the resources are at the SD-WAN edge device. In response to the confirmation of the availability of resources satisfying the resource quotas, one or more security constructs are set up to isolate SD-WAN network functions at the SD-WAN edge device from the compute service at the SD-WAN edge device. The compute service is attached to a SD-WAN network by the SD-WAN edge device. An acknowledgement that the compute service is enabled at the SD-WAN edge device is sent to the remote manager.

  • Patent number: 11888900
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a service receives captured traffic flow data regarding a traffic flow sent via a network between a first device assigned to a first network zone and a second device assigned to a second network zone. The service identifies, from the captured traffic flow data, one or more cryptographic parameters of the traffic flow. The service determines whether the one or more cryptographic parameters of the traffic flow satisfy an inter-zone policy associated with the first and second network zones. The service causes performance of a mitigation action in the network when the one or more cryptographic parameters of the traffic flow do not satisfy the inter-zone policy associated with the first and second network zones.
