In an aspect, an on-board computer of a host vehicle receives, from a radar sensor of the vehicle, a plurality of radar frames, executes a neural network on a subset of the plurality of radar frames, and detects one or more objects in the subset of the plurality of radar frames based on execution of the neural network on the subset of the plurality of radar frames. Further, techniques for transforming polar coordinates to Cartesian coordinates in a neural network are disclosed. In an aspect, a neural network receives a plurality of radar frames in polar coordinate space, a polar-to-Cartesian transformation layer of the neural network transforms the plurality of radar frames to Cartesian coordinate space, and the neural network outputs the plurality of radar frames in the Cartesian coordinate space.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for radar detection by an apparatus.

Abstract: Embodiments provided herein allow for identification of one or more regions of interest in a radar return signal that would be suitable for selected application of super-resolution processing. One or more super-resolution processing techniques can be applied to the identified regions of interest. The selective application of super-resolution processing techniques can reduce processing requirements and overall system delay. The output data of the super-resolution processing can be provided to a mobile computer system. The output data of the super-resolution processing can also be used to reconfigure the radar radio frequency front end to beam form the radar signal in region of the detected objects. The mobile computer system can use the output data for implementation of deep learning techniques. The deep learning techniques enable the vehicle to identify and classify detected objects for use in automated driving processes.

Abstract: Provided is a method for presenting images with embedded links for multi-channel redemption in a user interface. The method includes displaying an image including a first selectable portion and a second selectable portion, wherein a first link is embedded in the first selectable portion and points to a portal under control of a transaction handler, the first link identifying an offer for a merchant including at least one condition, and wherein a second link is embedded in the second selectable portion and points to the merchant. The method further includes, in response to a user selecting the first selectable portion of the image and following the first link, identifying, by the transaction handler and/or the portal, the user and an account of the user, and associating, by the transaction handler and/or the portal under control of the transaction handler, the offer with the account of the user.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for communicating between distributed automotive sensors, including radar sensors, wherein sensors transmit a synchronization (SYNC) signal, each SYNC signal transmitted via a substantially equal-length fiber optic link corresponding with each sensor. A central node receives the SYNC signals via the fiber optic links corresponding with each of the sensors and determines a master SYNC signal based on the received SYNC signals. The central node then transmits the master SYNC signal via the fiber optic links to the sensors, which receive the master SYNC signal and transmit, via fiber optic link, sensor data synchronized in accordance with the master SYNC signal. The synchronized sensor data are received at the central node and coherently aggregated, and transmitted to a compute node for post-processing. For radar data, the post-processing may include determination of an angular position of an object within detection range of at least two radar sensors.

Abstract: An advertised incentive system receives advertised incentive configuration information provided by a merchant. The advertised incentive configuration information defines the content of advertised incentive banners. The advertised incentive banners are provided as needed to merchants to display on the merchant's website. Advertised incentive registration information is received from an account holder after the account holder interacts with the advertised incentive banner. Transaction information is received that contains a qualified purchase made by the account holder. The advertised incentive registration and the qualified purchase are matched. A statement credit is issued against the account holder's account and a debit is issued against the merchant's account in the amount of the statement credit.

Abstract: A system determines an object-design for a three-dimensional model of an object. The object-design may exhibit a design continuity. The system breaks the object-design in to spatial patterns corresponding to the discrete surfaces making up the outward surface of the object. The system then generates flattened patterns by projecting the spatial patterns into a two-dimensional plane. The system prints the flattened patterns on to designated regions of material sheets in an orientation that preserves the design continuity of the object-design. The regions may be extracted from the sheets and then joined at their edges to form a cover for object that exhibits the continuity of the object design.
