Abstract: Techniques are provided for input/output operations per second (lOPS) and throughput monitoring for dynamic and/or optimal resource allocation. These techniques provide automated monitoring of resources, such as memory and processor utilization by a container accessing a volume. The automated monitoring is performed in order to generate and execute intelligent recommendations for improved resource utilization. Resource allocations can be scaled up to meet l/O load demand and satisfy service level agreements (SLAs). Resource allocations can be scaled down or adjusted to conserve resources, such as by consolidating containers or pods hosted in multiple virtual machines into a single virtual machine and decommissioning virtual machines no longer hosting containers or pods.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an improved training methodology that enables supervised contrastive learning to be simultaneously performed across multiple positive and negative training examples. In particular, example aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an improved, supervised version of the batch contrastive loss, which has been shown to be very effective at learning powerful representations in the self-supervised setting Thus, the proposed techniques adapt contrastive learning to the fully supervised setting and also enable learning to occur simultaneously across multiple positive examples.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods that perform face reconstruction based on an image of a face. In particular, one example system of the present disclosure combines a machine-learned image recognition model with a face modeler that uses a morphable model of a human's facial appearance. The image recognition model can be a deep learning model that generates an embedding in response to receipt of an image (e.g., an uncontrolled image of a face). The example system can further include a small, lightweight, translation model structurally positioned between the image recognition model and the face modeler. The translation model can be a machine-learned model that is trained to receive the embedding generated by the image recognition model and, in response, output a plurality of facial modeling parameter values usable by the face modeler to generate a model of the face.

In one aspect, a method comprises providing an input that comprises a provided image to a generative neural network having a plurality of generative neural network parameters.

Abstract: Insects can be localized and classified using a predictive model. To begin, image data is obtained that corresponds to the insects. Using a predictive model, samples of the image data are evaluated to determine whether the image portions include an insect and, if so, into what category the insect should be classified (e.g., male/female, species A/species B, etc.).
