  • Publication number: 20230316789
    Abstract: There is provided a method for annotating digital images for training a machine learning model, comprising: generating, from digital images and a plurality of dense depth maps, each associated with one of the digital images, an aligned three-dimensional stacked scene representation of a scene, where the digital images are captured by sensor(s) at the scene, and where each point in the three-dimensional stacked scene is associated with a stability score indicative of a likelihood the point is associated with a static object of the scene, removing from the three-dimensional stacked scene unstable points to produce a static three-dimensional stacked scene, detecting in at least one of the digital images static object(s) according to the static three-dimensional stacked scene, and classifying and annotating the static object(s). The machine learning model may be trained on the images annotated with a ground truth of the static object(s).

  • Publication number: 20200401617
    Abstract: Systems and methods for image-based self-localization of an image capture device, include receiving a query image of an undetermined location of the image and comparing the query image to a set of geotagged reference images to determine a location of the query image. The system and method may alternatively compare a series of query images to reference images or portions of feature vectors generated from said query images and reference images to determine the closest query image in the series to respective reference images. The set of geotagged reference images may include a sequence of previously obtained reference images of a route, each reference image corresponding to a known geolocation. The geolocation of the user may be determined based on the location of the query image within the set. Ambient conditions of the images may be used to improve comparison of a query image to reference images. Segment and/or abstractions of cell images may be used to reduce computational and/or communications resources.
