Each spoken training utterance in the training dataset paired with a corresponding transcription and a corresponding target sequence of auxiliary tokens. For each spoken training utterance, the method includes generating a speech recognition hypothesis for a corresponding spoken training utterance, determining a speech recognition loss based on the speech recognition hypothesis and the corresponding transcription, generating a predicted auxiliary token for the corresponding spoken training utterance, and determining an auxiliary task loss based on the predicted auxiliary token and the corresponding target sequence of auxiliary tokens.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating new images for training a machine-learning model are disclosed. Image data is produced regarding an image captured by an image sensor. The image data is altered such that the style of the image (e.g., color, shading, orientation, etc.) is altered. The altered image data is encoded into a first latent space. An image from a database is selected based on its similarity to the altered image and a decoding of the first latent space. Style encodings of the first latent space are extracted to classify a style of the altered image data in a second latent space. New images are then generated utilizing a reconstructor model that combines the two latent spaces. These new images can be used to train an image-recognition model.

The third space contains a lubricant oil.

Abstract: An automated speech recognition (ASR) model includes a first encoder, a first encoder, a second encoder, and a second decoder. The first encoder receives, as input, a sequence of acoustic frames, and generates, at each of a plurality of output steps, a first higher order feature representation for a corresponding acoustic frame in the sequence of acoustic frames.

The second decoder receives, as input, the second higher order feature representation generated by the second encoder, and generates a second probability distribution over possible speech recognition hypotheses.

Abstract: In one embodiment, example systems and methods related to a manner of unifying heterogeneous datasets are provided. Multiple heterogeneous datasets containing traffic or driving data are collected. The records of the datasets are combined, and the records in the combined dataset are ordered into a plurality of time series based on timestamps associated with each record. A Bayesian learning method, such as hidden Markov models, is used to identify traffic primitives in the datasets. Each traffic primitive may include several consecutive records in the combined dataset and may correspond to particular driving actions such as turning left or right, stopping, accelerating, etc. The traffic primitives are used to create a traffic primitive index that can be queried by users or researchers for specific records. These records can be used to train or test one or more learning-based algorithms.

Abstract: In one embodiment, example systems and methods related to a manner of optimizing LiDAR sensor placement on autonomous vehicles are provided. A range-of-interest is defined for the autonomous vehicle that includes the distances from which the autonomous vehicle is interested in collecting sensor data. The range-of-interest is segmented into multiple cubes of the same size. For each LiDAR sensor, a shape is determined based on information such as the number of lasers in each LiDAR sensor and the angle associated with each laser. An optimization problem is solved using the determined shape for each LiDAR sensor and the cubes of the range-of-interest to determine the locations to place each LiDAR sensor to maximize the number of cubes that are captured. The optimization problem may further determine the optimal pitch angle and roll angle to use for each LiDAR sensor to maximize the number of cubes that are captured.
