  • Publication number: 20240119697
    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure provide an example computer-implemented method for constructing a three-dimensional semantic segmentation of a scene from two-dimensional inputs. The example method includes obtaining, by a computing system comprising one or more processors, an image set comprising one or more views of a subject scene. The example method includes generating, by the computing system and based at least in part on the image set, a scene representation describing the subject scene in three dimensions. The example method includes generating, by the computing system and using a machine-learned semantic segmentation model framework, a multidimensional field of probability distributions over semantic categories, the multidimensional field defined over the three dimensions of the subject scene. The example method includes outputting, by the computing system, classification data for at least one location in the subject scene.

  • Publication number: 20240096001
    Abstract: Provided are machine learning models that generate geometry-free neural scene representations through efficient object-centric novel-view synthesis. In particular, one example aspect of the present disclosure provides a novel framework in which an encoder model (e.g., an encoder transformer network) processes one or more RGB images (with or without pose) to produce a fully latent scene representation that can be passed to a decoder model (e.g., a decoder transformer network). Given one or more target poses, the decoder model can synthesize images in a single forward pass. In some example implementations, because transformers are used rather than convolutional or MLP networks, the encoder can learn an attention model that extracts enough 3D information about a scene from a small set of images to render novel views with correct projections, parallax, occlusions, and even semantics, without explicit geometry.

  • Publication number: 20230236279
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting radio frequency (“RF”) signals and corresponding origination locations are disclosed. An RF sensor device includes a software-defined radio and an antenna pair for receiving RF signals. Furthermore the RF sensor device may include a processing unit for processing/analyzing the RF signals, or the processing unit may be remote. The system calculates a phase difference between an RF signal received at two separate antennas of an antenna pair. The phase difference, the distance between the antennas, and the frequency of the RF signal are used for determining the origination direction of the RF signal. In various embodiments, the origination direction may indicate the location of a UAV controller or base station. The software-defined radio may include more than one antenna pair, connected to multiplexers, for efficiently scanning different frequencies by alternating active antenna pairs. Moreover, the system may execute packet-based processing on the RF signal data.

  • Publication number: 20220406067
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for performing an action when an aggregated confidence measure. Data is received from a first sensor proximate to a particular air space. Data is also received from a second sensor and a third sensor proximate to the particular air space. The data from the first sensor, second sensor, and third sensor are each analyzed to determine respective confidence measures that a UAV is within the particular air space. The first sensor corresponds to a first type of data, the second sensor corresponds to a second type of data, and the third sensor corresponds to a third type of data. The confidence measures from each sensor are aggregated together to generate a combined confidence measure indicating a possible presence of the UAV within in the particular air space. When the combined confidence measure exceeds a threshold, an action is taken.

  • Publication number: 20200356783
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for identifying and tracking UAVs including a plurality of sensors operatively connected over a network to a configuration of software and/or hardware. Generally, the plurality of sensors monitors a particular environment and transmits the sensor data to the configuration of software and/or hardware. The data from each individual sensor can be directed towards a process configured to best determine if a UAV is present or approaching the monitored environment. The system generally allows for a detected UAV to be tracked, which may allow for the system or a user of the system to predict how the UAV will continue to behave over time. The sensor information as well as the results generated from the systems and methods may be stored in one or more databases in order to improve the continued identifying and tracking of UAVs.

  • Publication number: 20180171759
    Abstract: A system includes a distributed control system and a subsea tree that includes subsea tree chokes and a subsea control module communicatively coupled to flow control valves. The distributed control system communicatively couples to the subsea control module, is located at a surface level, and includes processors that send a first instruction to the flow control valves to adjust hydrocarbon production flow when water or gas cut is above a threshold. The processors also send a second instruction to the subsea tree chokes to adjust the flow of the production when a quality of commingling of the production flow with additional production flows is less than a threshold, an arrival pressure is less than a threshold, or an arrival flow rate is less than a threshold. The processors further continue the production of the fluids with current settings when a production rate is above a production rate threshold.

  • Patent number: 8847798
    Abstract: A method of data compression includes obtaining a data set comprising a sequence of data blocks comprising a predetermined number of data items, partitioning said data set into one or more groups each comprising a predetermined number of data blocks, and performing data compression on one or more groups of data blocks. Data compression is performed by associating a control data item with each of said blocks, generating a control vector comprising the control data items assigned to each of said blocks within a group, removing data blocks comprising entirely data items having said specified value, compressing data blocks comprising at least one data item having a value different from said specified value using a fixed-rate compression scheme, providing a compressed data stream comprising said compressed data blocks, and providing an associated control vector stream to enable control of said compressed data stream.
