Abstract: In a materials handling facility, events may be associated with users based on imaging data captured from multiple fields of view. When an event is detected at a location within the fields of view of multiple cameras, two or more of the cameras may be identified as having captured images of the location at a time of the event. Users within the materials handling facility may be identified from images captured prior to, during or after the event, and visual representations of the respective actors may be generated from the images. The event may be associated with one of the users based on distances between the users' hands and the location of the event, as determined from the visual representations, or based on imaging data captured from the users' hands, which may be processed to determine which, if any, of such hands includes an item associated with the event.

Abstract: Actors may be detected and tracked within a scene using multiple imaging devices provided in a network that are aligned with fields of view that overlap at least in part. Processors operating on the imaging devices may evaluate the images using one or more classifiers to recognize body parts within the images, and to associate the body parts with a common actor within the scene. Each of the imaging devices may generate records of the positions of the body parts and provide such records to a central server, that may correlate body parts appearing within images captured by two or more of the imaging devices and generate a three-dimensional model of an actor based on positions of the body parts. Motion of the body parts may be tracked in subsequent images, and the model of the actor may be updated based on the motion.

Abstract: The technology relates to power saving modes for subsystems in solar powered aircraft. An onboard subsystem of an aircraft includes a first processor configured to monitor a state of the subsystem and generate state data; a heating component configured to heat the subsystem to at least a minimum viable temperature; an operational component; and a hardware controller configured to control power to the heating component, the first processor, and the operational component, at least during a preservation mode and a monitoring mode. The subsystem draws a moderate amount of power when the heating component is on and a minimum threshold amount of power in the preservation mode. The subsystem draws a moderate amount of power in the monitoring mode in order to generate and communicate state data by the first processor, a moderate amount of power being lower than the higher amount of power required to operate the operational component.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for restoring a 3D tomographic model of the Earth's subsurface geology from the present-day to a past restoration time. Whereas at the present time all faults represent active discontinuities, at a past restoration time some faults have not yet formed. Accordingly, the restored model divides the fault network into ?-active faults (discontinuous surfaces for faults that intersect the layer deposited at the past restoration time) and ?-inactive faults (continuous surfaces for faults that do not intersect the layer deposited at the past restoration time). A new 3D restoration transformation is also provided that uses linear geological constraints to process the restoration model in less time and generate more accurate geological images.

Abstract: Automatic propagation of real-world parent seismic images to efficiently generate a collection of realistic synthetic child training images to train a model for accurate automatic seismic interpretation. A 3D structural model in a present-day geological space (e.g., GB) depicting subsurface locations of particles (e.g., in region B) may be transformed by a 3D coordinate space transformation (e.g., uvtB) to a depositional space (e.g., G*B) depicting past depositional locations of those particles (e.g., corresponding depositional region B). A real-world parent image depicting subsurface locations of particles (e.g., in region A) may be transformed, via a forward transformation (e.g., uvtA), to a depositional seismic image in the depositional space of the three-dimensional structural model (e.g., G*A=G*B). A reverse transformation (e.g., uutB?1) may transform the depositional seismic image from the depositional space into synthetic child training images in the present-day geological space (e.g.
