Patent number: 11625812Abstract: Examples disclosed herein are related to using a machine learning model to generate image data. One example provides a system, comprising one or more processors, and storage comprising instructions executable by the one or more processors to obtain image data comprising an image with unoccluded features, apply a mask to the unoccluded features in the image to form partial observation training data comprising a masked region that obscures at least a portion of the unoccluded features, and train a machine learning model comprising a generator and a discriminator at least in part by generating image data for the masked region and comparing the image data generated for the masked region to the image with unoccluded features.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2020Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Ranveer Chandra, Peder Andreas Olsen, Mingmin Zhao

Patent number: 11528040Abstract: This disclosure provides a data retransmission method and apparatus. The method includes: A transmitting device obtains information to be transmitted for a tth time, where the information to be transmitted for the tth time includes Rt extension locations and information to be transmitted for a (t?1)th time, and the extension locations include Mt information bits and Lt check bits corresponding to the Mt information bits. The transmitting device then performs Polar encoding on the information to be transmitted for the tth time, to obtain a codeword after the Polar encoding, obtains a codeword for (t?1)th retransmission based on the codeword after the Polar encoding, and transmits the codeword for (t?1)th retransmission. A receiving device performs polar decoding after receiving the codeword for (t?1)th retransmission, to obtain a decoding result of codewords for t times of transmission.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2020Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Mingmin Zhao, Gongzheng Zhang, Chen Xu, Rong Li

Publication number: 20200341115Abstract: In a data-processing system a frame generator generates frames from the reflection data representing successive patterns of reflection that result from having launched a transmitted radio signal into a space. Each frame indicates a pattern of reflection at a particular time that corresponds to the frame. A trajectory generator receives the frame data and uses it to identify of a subject's trajectory through the space. An identification module identifies the subject based at least in part on the trajectory.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2020Publication date: October 29, 2020Inventors: Dina Katabi, Rumen H.

Publication number: 20180271435Abstract: A method for tracking a sleep stage of a subject takes as input a sequence of observations sensed over an observation time period. The sequence of observation values is processed to yield a corresponding sequence of encoded observations using a first artificial neural network (ANN) and the sequence of encoded observation values is processed to yield a sequence of sleep stage indicators using a second artificial network. Each observation may correspond to an interval of the observation period (e.g., at least 30 seconds). The first ANN may be configured to reduce information representing a source of the sequence of observations in the encoded observations.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2018Publication date: September 27, 2018Inventors: Mingmin Zhao, Shichao Yue, Dina Katabi, Tommi S. Jaakkola
