Abstract: The methods and apparatus described enable automatic configuration, or commissioning, of controller devices and load control devices through a low voltage communication network controlled by one or more controller devices. These methods and apparatus further enable expansion of the load control system by connection of additional loads and or load control devices and or controller devices which will reinitialize the low voltage communication network and automatically reconfigure the controller devices and load control devices connected to the network.

Abstract: The present embodiments relate to tracking player movements from a video broadcast and determining a defensive influence score from the tracked movements of the player. The present embodiments can implement one or more models to generate a defensive influence score that quantifies a defensive intensity of a player during the course of a game. The defensive influence score can include a frame-by-frame machine learning prediction that can be used to estimate the defensive pressure a player is having on another player during the course of the game. Additionally, the present embodiments can capture and estimate fitness metrics, such as sprints and efforts around detected plays such as pick-and-rolls and off-ball screens, which can be good proxies for player effort. Further, event detection outputs (both offensive and defensive metrics), can be used as features to estimate fitness metrics for the player (e.g., player load, sprints, jogs, etc.).

Abstract: A method for tracking one or more individuals during a sporting event, the method including: receiving, as an input, a geospatial data of a sporting event; receiving, as an input, labeled event data of the sporting event; performing multi-object tracking of one or more agents of the geospatial data to determine one or more vectors; inputting the labeled event data and one or more vectors into a diffusion model; and determining, using the diffusion model, one or more trajectory sequences for the one or more agents.

Abstract: A method for generating predictions for teams and players associated with a sporting event using a transformer neural network, the method including: receiving a set of input features, the set of input features representing a set of players and teams within a match, each input within the set of input features being represented by a tensor; inputting the set of input features into a transformer neural network, the transformer neural network including: a set of embedding layers; transformer encoder layers; and fully connected layers; and generating, using the transformer neural network, a set of target metric predictions for the set of players and teams within the match.

Abstract: A monitoring system for use in combination with, in particular a ferromagnetic, detection system of the kind that generates a warning signal to indicate a detection event when the detection system detects movement of a door protecting an entrance to a protected area. The monitoring system may include a processor configured to present information to a user to alert the user when the warning signal indicates a detection event; and a user interface configured to accept a user input in response to the presentation of the detection event that generates a user generated signal indicative of whether the detection event was the result of an unintentional action or an intentional action. The processor may be configured to automatically store data relating to the detection event in a memory unit when the user generated signals indicates that the detection event was the result of an unintentional action.
