  • Publication number: 20260147121
    Abstract: In various examples, data collection vehicles or machines may be equipped with one or more LiDAR sensors (and/or other sensors), and the LiDAR sensor(s) may be used to collect frames of LiDAR data representing various real-world conditions. The LiDAR data may be processed using one or more deep neural networks (DNNs) such as a transformer neural network to generate auto-labels representing detected dynamic obstacles of any designated class. Tracking may be applied to generate object tracks (tracklines), estimate velocity, and/or handle occlusions. In some embodiments, the object tracks may be refined based on geometry and/or confidence to improve their accuracy. In some embodiments, the auto-labels are classified to generate an estimated representation of quality, and auto-labels with at least a threshold quality score may be skipped during human labeling. As such, auto-label quality scores may be used to accelerate human validation of auto-labeled scenes by skipping high quality auto-labels.

  • Publication number: 20260079258
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to multi-view LIDAR perception with motion cues for autonomous and semi-autonomous machines and applications. A DNN may be used to detect objects, a navigable space, weather or surface conditions, artifacts, and/or other parts or features of an environment based on multiple views of LIDAR data from multiple time slices. The DNN may include multiple input channels for processing multiple views of sensor data from multiple time slices to provide motion cues, and the extracted features from the different time slices may be geometrically projected from a first 2D view to a second 2D view, combined with features that were extracted from the second 2D view, and applied to a subsequent stage of the DNN. The data generated by the DNN may be provided to the drive stack of an autonomous vehicle or other ego-machine to enable safe planning and control of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20260080668
    Abstract: In various examples, self-supervised learning may be used to pre-train an encoder network of a masked prediction model to reconstruct masked regions of an input representation of 3D detections such as LiDAR point cloud(s). Spatial and/or temporal masking may be applied to a projected representation of 3D detections (e.g., a two-dimensional (2D) projection image), and the masked prediction model (e.g., a masked auto-encoder or joint-embedding predictive architecture) may be used to reconstruct a representation of the masked regions (e.g., reflection characteristic(s) stored in corresponding pixels or cells of the projected representation, a latent representation of the reflection characteristic(s)) during iterations of self-supervised learning. As such, the pre-trained encoder network of the masked prediction model may be used as a foundation model and fine-tuned with a task-specific output head or its pre-trained weights may be used to initialize a task-specific model.

  • Publication number: 20160196353
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for improved management of unattended user queries. An unattended user query management system is implemented to detect an unattended user query in a social media environment. Data associated with the unattended user query is then retrieved from the social media environment and processed to assign the unattended user query to a predetermined category. Once the unattended user query has been categorized, it is provided to a resource, such as a subject matter expert (SME), associated with the query. In response, an answer to the previously-unattended user query is received from the resource, which is then provided to the social media environment that was the source of the unattended user query.
