  • Publication number: 20230351759
    Abstract: A system and method for providing an agent action anticipative transformer that include receiving image data associated with a video of a surrounding environment of an ego agent. The system and method additionally include analyzing the image data and extracting short range clips from the image data. The system and method also include analyzing the short range clips and extracting clip-level features associated with each of the short range clips. The system and method further include executing self-supervision using causal masking with respect to the extracted clip-level features to output action predictions and feature predictions to enable ego-centric action anticipation with respect to at least one target agent to autonomously control the ego agent.

  • Patent number: 11741723
    Abstract: A system and method for performing intersection scenario retrieval that includes receiving a video stream of a surrounding environment of an ego vehicle. The system and method also include analyzing the video stream to trim the video stream into video clips of an intersection scene associated with the travel of the ego vehicle. The system and method additionally include annotating the ego vehicle, dynamic objects, and their motion paths that are included within the intersection scene with action units that describe an intersection scenario. The system and method further include retrieving at least one intersection scenario based on a query of an electronic dataset that stores a combination of action units to operably control a presentation of at least one intersection scenario video clip that includes the at least one intersection scenario.

  • Publication number: 20230154195
    Abstract: According to one aspect, intersection scenario description may be implemented by receiving a video stream of a surrounding environment of an ego-vehicle, extracting tracklets and appearance features associated with dynamic objects from the surrounding environment, extracting motion features associated with dynamic objects from the surrounding environment based on the corresponding tracklets, passing the appearance features through an appearance neural network to generate an appearance model, passing the motion features through a motion neural network to generate a motion model, passing the appearance model and the motion model through a fusion network to generate a fusion output, passing the fusion output through a classifier to generate a classifier output, and passing the classifier output through a loss function to generate a multi-label classification output associated with the ego-vehicle, dynamic objects, and corresponding motion paths.

  • Publication number: 20230141037
    Abstract: A system and method for providing weakly-supervised online action segmentation that include receiving image data associated with multi-view videos of a procedure, wherein the procedure involves a plurality of atomic actions. The system and method also include analyzing the image data using weakly-supervised action segmentation to identify each of the plurality of atomic actions by using an ordered sequence of action labels. The system and method additionally include training a neural network with data pertaining to the plurality of atomic actions based on the weakly-supervised action segmentation. The system and method further include executing online action segmentation to label atomic actions that are occurring in real-time based on the plurality of atomic actions trained to the neural network.

  • Patent number: 11580743
    Abstract: A system and method for providing unsupervised domain adaption for spatio-temporal action localization that includes receiving video data associated with a source domain and a target domain that are associated with a surrounding environment of a vehicle. The system and method also include analyzing the video data associated with the source domain and the target domain and determining a key frame of the source domain and a key frame of the target domain. The system and method additionally include completing an action localization model to model a temporal context of actions occurring within the key frame of the source domain and the key frame of the target domain and completing an action adaption model to localize individuals and their actions and to classify the actions based on the video data. The system and method further include combining losses to complete spatio-temporal action localization of individuals and actions.
