  • Patent number: 12248056
    Abstract: In implementations of systems for estimating three-dimensional trajectories of physical objects, a computing device implements a three-dimensional trajectory system to receive radar data describing millimeter wavelength radio waves directed within a physical environment using beamforming and reflected from physical objects in the physical environment. The three-dimensional trajectory system generates a cloud of three-dimensional points based on the radar, each of the three-dimensional points corresponds to a reflected millimeter wavelength radio wave within a sliding temporal window. The three-dimensional points are grouped into at least one group based on Euclidean distances between the three-dimensional points within the cloud. The three-dimensional trajectory system generates an indication of a three-dimensional trajectory of a physical object corresponding to the at least one group using a Kalman filter to track a position and a velocity a centroid of the at least one group in three-dimensions.

  • Patent number: 12174599
    Abstract: An energy-saving strategy formulation method for a semi-automatic production line based on model predictive control is performed as follows. max-plus algebra model is constructed, based on which an optimization objective function with the WIP products as discrete elements and sleep start moment and sleep end moment of the automated device as control variables is established. A first unoptimized WIP product is substituted into the optimization objective function, and the optimization objective function is solved to obtain an optimal sequence, in which a first set of values is output as optimization result. Whether all WIP products have been optimized is determined, and if yes, an energy-saving strategy is generated and used to control the automated device, otherwise, the optimization result is treated as disturbance information to be incorporated into the modeling. An energy-saving strategy formulation system is also provided.

  • Patent number: 12174881
    Abstract: Described are systems and methods to determine hair patterns presented in content items. The determined hair patterns may be associated with the content items to facilitate indexing, filtering, etc. of the content items based on the determined hair patterns. In exemplary implementations, a corpus of content items may be associated with an embedding vector that includes a binary representation of the content item. The embedding vectors associated with each content item can be provided as inputs to a trained machine learning model, which can process the embedding vectors to determine one or more hair patterns presented in each content item while eliminating the need for performing image pre-processing prior to determination of the hair pattern(s) presented in the content item.
