Patent number: 11971329Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to autonomously detect thermal anomalies. Disclosed examples include an example apparatus to detect engine anomalies comprising: at least one memory; instructions in the apparatus; and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to: control a plurality of infrared cameras to capture a baseline image set, the baseline image set including at least two thermal images; generate emissivity data based on the baseline image set; provide the baseline image set and the emissivity data to an artificial intelligence model, the artificial intelligence model to generate a reconstructed image set; determine a difference between the baseline image set and the reconstructed image set; and in response to the difference exceeding a threshold, generate an alert indicating detection of an engine anomaly.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2021Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANYInventors: Brandon S. Good, Bijan Chitsaz, Guanghua Wang, Bernard P. Bewlay, Gyeong Woo Cheon, Alberto Santamaria-Pang

Patent number: 11657506Abstract: A method of robot autonomous navigation includes capturing an image of the environment, segmenting the captured image to identify one or more foreground objects and one or more background objects, determining a match between one or more of the foreground objects to one or more predefined image files, estimating an object pose for the one or more foreground objects by implementing an iterative estimation loop, determining a robot pose estimate by applying a robot-centric environmental model to the object pose estimate by implementing an iterative refinement loop, associating semantic labels to the matched foreground object, compiling a semantic map containing the semantic labels and segmented object image pose, and providing localization information to the robot based on the semantic map and the robot pose estimate. A system and a non-transitory computer-readable medium are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2019Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Huan Tan, Isabella Heukensfeldt Jansen, Gyeong Woo Cheon, Li Zhang
