Patent number: 12248872Abstract: Systems and methods are described for recommending pairs or sets of clothing items for an individual to wear together, including learning a compatibility metric personalized to each individual. A framework is used to learn compatibility that is personalized to the user based on initial item feedback that may be received from the user via user interfaces that prompt the user to indicate whether the user would wear certain clothing items together and/or individually.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2021Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Anurag Beniwal, Meet Taraviya, Yen-Liang Lin, Larry Davis

Publication number: 20240331211Abstract: Systems and methods are described for generating images of synthesized bodies wearing a garment. For instance, a source image of a human or mannequin wearing a garment may be submitted to a synthesized human generation system. In response to receiving the source image, the synthesized human generation system may use a classifier to classify the image as depicting one or more body types or orientations. The synthesized human generation system may also apply segmentation to the source image to segment the garment pixels. The synthesized human generation system may then select one or more body generation machine learning models based on the classification of the source image. The synthesized human generation system may utilize the selected machine learning models to generate one or more output images of synthesized bodies that appear to be wearing the garment, using the segmented garment as input.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2023Publication date: October 3, 2024Inventors: Larry Davis, Nicolas Heron, Amit Kumar Agrawal, Nina Mitra Khosrowsalafi, Osama Makansi, Oleksandr Vorobiov

Publication number: 20220161159Abstract: The present invention relates to a filter device for separating debris from a fluid. The filter device includes a housing having at least one inlet, at least one first outlet, and a second outlet. The filter device further includes a filter cartridge that allows fluid to pass therethrough but prevents passage of debris therethrough. The filter cartridge is positioned within the housing so as to define an upper chamber and a lower chamber within the housing. The at least one inlet is positioned so as to allow contaminated fluid to enter the lower chamber of the housing. Fluid must pass through the filter cartridge in an upward direction to reach the upper chamber, and the first outlet is positioned so as to allow filtered fluid to exit the upper chamber. The second outlet is positioned to allow debris accumulated within the lower chamber to be discharged.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2022Publication date: May 26, 2022Inventors: Wayne Larry Davis, Jeffrey John Melillo

Patent number: 10943154Abstract: Multi-modal data representing driving events and corresponding actions related to the driving events can be obtained and used to train a neural network at least in part by using a triplet loss computed for the driving events as a regression loss to determine an embedding of driving event data. In some cases, using the trained neural network, a retrieval request for an input driving event and corresponding action can be processed by determining, from the neural network, one or more similar driving events or corresponding actions in the multi-modal data.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2019Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignee: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Ahmed Taha, Yi-Ting Chen, Teruhisa Misu, Larry Davis, Xitong Yang

Publication number: 20150251704Abstract: The vehicle will support two or more passengers moving from Point A to Point B—the grocery store, a friend's house, to work or out on out-of-town trips. Because of its new ornamental design, the public will be pleased with its motorcycle and automobile characteristics. Passengers don't have to hold up the weight of the vehicle with their legs, compared to a two-wheel motorcycle. The public will enjoy the open seating compartment to Mother Nature, enjoying the hot or cold climate. The new vehicle will have its own heating and cooling system which can be adjusted by the passenger for climate control when there is a change in the temperature around them. Passengers will be seated in an open compartment, having fun, relieving stress, and seeing everything around them. Compared to a two-wheel motorcycle, the new vehicle is more visible on the road and highway, making it safer for passengers in case of a highway accident.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 5, 2014Publication date: September 10, 2015Inventor: Larry Davis

Publication number: 20130343642Abstract: Automated person re-identification may be assisted by consideration of attributes of the person in a joint classification with matching of the person. By both solving for similarities in a plurality of attributes and identities, discriminative interactions may be captured. Automated person re-identification may be assisted by consideration of a semantic color name. Rather than a color histogram, probability distributions are mapped to color terms of the semantic color name. Using other descriptors as well, similarity measures for the various descriptors are weighted and combined into a score. Either or both considerations may be used.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2013Publication date: December 26, 2013Applicant: SIEMENS CORPORATIONInventors: Cheng-Hao Kuo, Vinay Damodar Shet, Sameh Khamis, Larry Davis, Vivek Kumar Singh

Patent number: 7961215Abstract: A multi-camera system that collects images and videos of moving objects in dynamic and crowded scenes, subject to task constraints is disclosed. The system constructs “task visibility intervals” comprising information about what can be sensed in future time intervals. Methods for constructing these intervals applying prediction of future object motion and including consideration of factors such as object occlusion and camera control parameters are also disclosed. Using a plane-sweep algorithm, these atomic intervals can be combined in a method to form multi-task intervals, during which a single camera can collect videos suitable for multiple tasks simultaneously. Methods for fast camera scheduling that yield solutions within a small constant factor of an optimal solution are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2007Date of Patent: June 14, 2011Assignee: Siemens CorporationInventors: Ser-Nam Lim, Anurag Mittal, Larry Davis
