Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for object detection in sensor data having at least two modalities using a common embedding space includes creating first modality vector representations of features of sensor data having a first modality and second modality vector representations of features of sensor data having a second modality, projecting the first and second modality vector representations into the common embedding space such that related embedded modality vectors are closer together in the common embedding space than unrelated modality vectors, combining the projected first and second modality vector representations, and determining a similarity between the combined modality vector representations and respective embedded vector representations of features of objects in the common embedding space to identify at least one object depicted by the captured sensor data. In some instances, data manipulation of the method, apparatus and system can be guided by physics properties of a sensor and/or sensor data.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for an image understanding system comprising a machine learning system that applies a machine learning model to perform image understanding of each pixel of an image, the pixel labeled with a class, to determine an estimated class to which the pixel belongs. The machine learning system determines, based on the classes with which the pixels are labeled and the estimated classes, a cross entropy loss of each class. The machine learning system determines, based on one or more region metrics, a weight for each class and applies the weight to the cross entropy loss of each class to obtain a weighted cross entropy loss. The machine learning system updates the machine learning model with the weighted cross entropy loss to improve a performance metric of the machine learning model for each class.
