  • Publication number: 20250095207
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for providing improvements for red green blue white (RGBW) images and red yellow blue (RYYB) images. For example, a computing device can obtain first image frame(s) of a scene captured by one or more RGBW sensors with a first exposure at a sensor frame rate. The computing device can obtain second image frame(s) of the scene captured by the RGBW sensor(s) with a second exposure at the sensor frame rate. The second exposure is lower than the first exposure. The computing device can blend red green blue (RGB) components of each image frame of the first image frame(s) with RGB components of a respective adjacent second image frame of the second image frame(s) to produce blended image frame(s). The computing device can apply a white component of each image frame of the second image frame(s) to a respective blended image frame of the blended image frame(s).

  • Patent number: 12250457
    Abstract: Imaging systems and techniques are described. An imaging system can receive image data from an image sensor with different sets of photodetectors sensitive to different electromagnetic (EM) frequency domains. The imaging system determines, based on image data of a scene received from the image sensor, a first focus setting for focusing on the scene using the image sensor in the first domain. The imaging system determines, based on the first focus setting and a difference between respective characteristics of the first domain and a second domain, a second focus setting for focusing on the scene using the image sensor in the second domain. The imaging system causes the image sensor to capture a first image of the scene in the first domain according to the first focus setting, and to capture a second image of the scene in the second domain according to the second focus setting.

  • Publication number: 20250061465
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting trending topics in customer inquiries includes retrieving customer inquiries from a plurality of data sources for a target time window and reference time windows and detecting trending keywords in the target time window as compared to keywords in the reference time windows. Responsive to detecting the trending keywords, customer inquiries in the target time window that include one or more of the trending keywords are collected and a weight is measured for each collected customer inquiry based on weights of detected trending keywords in each collected customer inquiry. A connection graph is generated for the detected trending keywords and the collected customer inquiries. The detected trending keywords are then clustered into a plurality of trending topics based on the connection graph, and the trending topics are ranked based on the measured weights of the collected customer inquiries associated with each trending topic.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for treating impairment of a limb in a subject. Particular methods comprise applying a therapeutically effective amount of an electrical stimulus to dorsal roots, dorsal rootlets, or dorsal root ganglia, of sensory neurons innervating the limb of the subject, wherein the impairment is a motor impairment and/or a proprioception impairment due to neurological disorder or injury, the electrical stimulus is applied with one or more electrodes controlled by a neurostimulator, and the one or more electrodes are implanted in the epidural space at the dorsolateral aspect of the spinal cord and proximate to the dorsal roots or dorsal rootlets of the sensory neurons innervating the limb of the subject, or the one or more electrodes are implanted proximate to dorsal root ganglia of sensory neurons innervating the limb of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20240399861
    Abstract: In some aspects, a device may obtain information indicating a seating configuration for a vehicle, and determine, in accordance with the seating configuration, that there is a change to an orientation of a seat from a front-facing orientation to a rear-facing orientation or from the rear-facing orientation to the front-facing orientation. The device may cause, in accordance with the change to the orientation of the seat, an adjustment of a mapping of audio channels to speakers of the vehicle. The device may determine, in accordance with the seating configuration, that the adjustment of the mapping is to cause disagreement between visual content on a display device associated with an additional seat and multiple-channel audio to be output by the speakers, and cause an adjustment of the visual content on the display device to cause agreement between the visual content and the multiple-channel audio. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • Publication number: 20240305688
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data management are described. A first computing node within a first set of computing nodes may receive, from a network gateway, a first replication request that is associated with a first replication job for the first cluster of computing nodes to provide copies of a first set of one or more computing snapshots to a second cluster of computing nodes. The first set of computing nodes may determine that a second computing node different from the first computing node will service the data replication request. A network bandwidth allocation may be increased for the first computing node that received the replication request directly from the network gateway while the network bandwidth allocation for the second computing node is maintained for the second computing node based on the second computing node receiving the request via an internal redirection of the request.

  • Publication number: 20240179382
    Abstract: Imaging systems and techniques are described. An imaging system includes a multi-domain image sensor that is sensitive to a first electromagnetic frequency domain (e.g., visible light) and a second electromagnetic frequency domain (e.g., infrared). The imaging system blends images of a scene to generate a blended image of the scene that represents the scene according to the first electromagnetic frequency domain. At least one image of the images is captured using a first image capture setting (e.g., a first ISO). The imaging system reduces pixel values in the blended image by adjustment values to generate an output image. The adjustment values are based on a representation of the scene according to a second EM frequency domain from an additional image of the scene that is captured using a second image capture setting (e.g., a second ISO).
