Patent number: 11688183Abstract: A neural network is configured to process image data captured by a vehicle-mounted camera. The neural network includes common processing layers (a trunk) and separate, parallelizable processing layers (branches). An object detection branch of the neural network is trained to detect objects that may be visible from the vehicle-mounted camera, such as cars, trucks, and traffic signs. A curve determination branch is trained to detect and parameterize salient curves, such as lane boundaries and road boundaries. The curve determination branch itself is configured with a trunk and branch architecture, having both common and separate processing layers. A first branch computes a likelihood that a curve is present in a given location of the image data and a second branch further localizes the curve within the given location if such a curve is present. Training of the different branches of the neural network may be decoupled.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2022Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: NETRADYNE, INC.Inventors: Michael Campos, Venkata Sreekanta Reddy Annapureddy, David Jonathan Julian, Veeresh Taranalli, Jonathan Albert Cox, Arvind Yedla

Patent number: 10025123Abstract: The various technologies presented herein relate to various hybrid phononic-photonic waveguide structures that can exhibit nonlinear behavior associated with traveling-wave forward stimulated Brillouin scattering (forward-SBS). The various structures can simultaneously guide photons and phonons in a suspended membrane. By utilizing a suspended membrane, a substrate pathway can be eliminated for loss of phonons that suppresses SBS in conventional silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguides. Consequently, forward-SBS nonlinear susceptibilities are achievable at about 3000 times greater than achievable with a conventional waveguide system. Owing to the strong phonon-photon coupling achievable with the various embodiments, potential application for the various embodiments presented herein cover a range of radiofrequency (RF) and photonic signal processing applications. Further, the various embodiments presented herein are applicable to applications operating over a wide bandwidth, e.g. 100 MHz to 50 GHz or more.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2015Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignees: National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLCInventors: Peter Thomas Rakich, Heedeuk Shin, Ryan Camacho, Jonathan Albert Cox, Robert L.

The input structures are configured to extract pre-modulation and post-modulation portions of a carrier signal. The processing elements are configured to determine average powers from the extracted portions. The comparator is configured to compare the average input power and the average output power. The control element operates a heater coupled to the modulator based on the comparison.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2014Date of Patent: October 11, 2016Assignee: Sandia CorporationInventors: Anthony L.
