Abstract: A method and system for training a machine learning model for point of gaze prediction simultaneously analyzes the image of the scene and the image of the driver's face using the machine learning model to generate a point of gaze of a driver in traffic environments. The machine learning model comprises a camera calibration module that can compute an embedding vector that represents the spatial configuration between the driver and the camera system. The camera calibration module improves the overall model's performance, which is jointly trained end to end.

Abstract: Techniques are described for creating a container environment that implements direct communications between pods. This includes the creation of a management component (such as a control plane) of the container environment, the creation of nodes within an implementation component (such as a data plane) of the container environment, and the attaching of virtualized network interface cards (VNICs) to each node. This also includes creating a custom resource for each node, where the custom resource stores internet protocol (IP) addresses assigned to the node and stored within the VNICs for the node. Pods implemented within these nodes obtain an IP address from the VNICs for their respective node and communicate with each other utilizing the IP addresses via virtual communication devices and the VNICs.
