Abstract: A measuring system includes a processor. The processor calculates first information. The first information indicates a position and an attitude of a camera. The camera measures depth information along with an image of a measurement target. The processor extract second shape information from first shape information based on the first information. The first shape information indicates a three-dimensional shape of the measurement target. The second shape information indicates a three-dimensional shape corresponding to an imaging range of the camera. The processor calculates second information based on a result of a comparison between the depth information and the second shape information. The second information indicates the position and the attitude of the camera with a higher precision than the first information.

Abstract: Systems and methods for quality analysis of a source code are disclosed. The method includes obtaining plural comments included in the source code. Each of the plural comments includes at least one of plural predetermined words. Also the method extracts plural candidate comments which are comments obtained by excluding plural specific comments from the obtained plural comments. Each of the plural specific comments can be identified using a similarity between a source code fragment relating to any of the obtained plural comments and an adjacent source code fragment adjacent to the source code fragment. In addition, the method outputs an evaluation about incompletion of the source code. The evaluation is determined using the plural candidate comments.

Abstract: Methods and systems for deploying an automated driving model include testing an automated driving model with a set of scenarios that include a single obstacle. The set of scenarios is pruned to include only those scenarios that do not result in a collision, but that may result in a collision with the addition of another obstacle. New scenarios are added to the set of scenarios to include scenarios that have an additional obstacle to form an updated set of scenarios. The automated driving model is tested with the updated set of scenarios. The automated driving model is deployed to a vehicle to control operation of one or more systems in the vehicle.
