Abstract: Methods for rendering augmented reality (AR) content are presented. An a priori defined 3D albedo model of an object is leveraged to adjust AR content so that is appears as a natural part of a scene. Disclosed devices recognize a known object having a corresponding albedo model. The devices compare the observed object to the known albedo model to determine a content transformation referred to as an estimated shading (environmental shading) model. The transformation is then applied to the AR content to generate adjusted content, which is then rendered and presented for consumption by a user.

Abstract: An activity recognition system is disclosed. A plurality of temporal features is generated from a digital representation of an observed activity using a feature detection algorithm. An observed activity graph comprising one or more clusters of temporal features generated from the digital representation is established, wherein each one of the one or more clusters of temporal features defines a node of the observed activity graph. At least one contextually relevant scoring technique is selected from similarity scoring techniques for known activity graphs, the at least one contextually relevant scoring technique being associated with activity ingestion metadata that satisfies device context criteria defined based on device contextual attributes of the digital representation, and a similarity activity score is calculated for the observed activity graph as a function of the at least one contextually relevant scoring technique, the similarity activity score being relative to at least one known activity graph.

Abstract: A sensor data processing system and method is described. Contemplated systems and methods derive a first recognition trait of an object from a first data set that represents the object in a first environmental state. A second recognition trait of the object is then derived from a second data set that represents the object in a second environmental state. The sensor data processing systems and methods then identifies a mapping of elements of the first and second recognition traits in a new representation space. The mapping of elements satisfies a variance criterion for corresponding elements, which allows the mapping to be used for object recognition. The sensor data processing systems and methods described herein provide new object recognition techniques that are computationally efficient and can be performed in real-time by the mobile phone technology that is currently available.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for predicting MHC-peptide binding affinity. A plurality of training peptide sequences is obtained, and a neural network model is trained to predict MHC-peptide binding affinity using the training peptide sequences. An encoder of the neural network model comprising an RNN is configured to process an input training peptide sequence to generate a fixed-dimension encoding output by applying a final hidden state of the RNN at intermediate state outputs of the RNN to generate attention weighted outputs, and linearly combining the attention weighted outputs. A fully connected layer following the encoder is configured to process the fixed-dimension encoding output to generate an MHC-peptide binding affinity prediction output. A computing device is configured to use the trained neural network to predict MHC-peptide binding affinity for a test peptide sequence.

Abstract: An object recognition ingestion system is presented. The object ingestion system captures image data of objects, possibly in an uncontrolled setting. The image data is analyzed to determine if one or more a priori know canonical shape objects match the object represented in the image data. The canonical shape object also includes one or more reference PoVs indicating perspectives from which to analyze objects having the corresponding shape. An object ingestion engine combines the canonical shape object along with the image data to create a model of the object. The engine generates a desirable set of model PoVs from the reference PoVs, and then generates recognition descriptors from each of the model PoVs. The descriptors, image data, model PoVs, or other contextually relevant information are combined into key frame bundles having sufficient information to allow other computing devices to recognize the object at a later time.

Abstract: Systems and methods of quickly recognizing or differentiating many objects are presented. Contemplated systems include an object model database storing recognition models associated with known modeled objects. The object identifiers can be indexed in the object model database based on recognition features derived from key frames of the modeled object. Such objects are recognized by a recognition engine at a later time. The recognition engine can construct a recognition strategy based on a current context where the recognition strategy includes rules for executing one or more recognition algorithms on a digital representation of a scene. The recognition engine can recognize an object from the object model database, and then attempt to identify key frame bundles that are contextually relevant, which can then be used to track the object or to query a content database for content information.
