Abstract: COVID-19 has become a global pandemic after its inception in late 2019. SARS-CoV-2 genomes are sequenced and shared on public repositories at a fast pace. To keep up with these updates, datasets need to be refreshed and re-cleaned frequently.

In the present disclosure, system and method embodiments for genome analysis and visualization are developed to address these challenges. A webserver may be used to enable simple and rapid analysis of genomes. Given a new sequence, the system may automatically predict gene boundaries and identify genetic variants, which are presented in an interactive genome visualizer and are downloadable for analysis. A command-line interface may be available for high throughput processing.

The detected object may be determined to be an object of interest responsive to results of hypotheses merging.

Abstract: A vehicular vision system includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and capturing image data. The system, via processing at an electronic control unit (ECU) of image data captured by the camera, detects an object at a first orientation relative to camera. A first local binary pattern represents in binary form a first portion of the image data that includes the detected object. The system detects the object at a second orientation relative to camera. A second local binary pattern represents in binary form a second portion of the image data that includes the detected object. The second orientation is different from the first orientation and the second local binary pattern is different than the first local binary pattern. The system groups the first and second local binary patterns into a common histogram bin. The system classifies the detected object based at least in part on the common histogram bin.
