  • Patent number: 11829882
    Abstract: A system for training a neural network. A switch is linked to feature detectors in at least some of the layers of the neural network. For each training case, the switch randomly selectively disables each of the feature detectors in accordance with a preconfigured probability. The weights from each training case are then normalized for applying the neural network to test data.

  • Publication number: 20220292781
    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology relate to generative scene networks (GSNs) that are able to generate realistic scenes that can be rendered from a free moving camera at any location and orientation. A GSN may be implemented using a global generator and a locally conditioned radiance field. GSNs may employ a spatial latent representation as conditioning for a grid of locally conditioned radiance fields, and may be trained using an adversarial learning framework. Inverting a GSN may allow free navigation of a generated scene conditioned on one or more observations.

  • Patent number: 11080562
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining training samples that include images that depict objects and annotations of annotated key point locations for the objects. The method also includes training a machine learning model to determine estimated key point locations for the objects and key point uncertainty values for the estimated key point locations by minimizing a loss function that is based in part on a key point localization loss value that represents a difference between the annotated key point locations and the estimated key point locations values and is weighted by the key point uncertainty values.

  • Publication number: 20210090302
    Abstract: A method includes defining a geometric capsule that is interpretable by a capsule neural network, wherein the geometric capsule includes a feature representation and a pose. The method also includes determining multiple viewpoints relative to the geometric capsule and determining a first appearance representation of the geometric capsule for each of the multiple viewpoints. The method also includes determining a transform for each of the multiple viewpoints that moves each of the multiple viewpoints to a respective transformed viewpoint and determining second appearance representations that each correspond to one of the transformed viewpoints. The method also includes combining the second appearance representations to define an agreed appearance representation. The method also includes updating the feature representation for the geometric capsule based on the agreed appearance representation.

  • Patent number: 10943148
    Abstract: A system employs an inspection neural network (INN) to inspect data generated during an inference process of a primary neural network (PNN) to generate an indication of reliability for an output generated by the PNN. The system includes a sensor configured to capture sensor data. Sensor data captured by the sensor is provided to a data analyzer to generate an output using the PNN. An analyzer inspector is configured to capture inspection data associated with the generation of the output by the data analyzer, and use the INN to generate an indication of reliability for the PNN's output based on the inspection data. The INN is trained using a set of training data that is distinct from the training data used to train the PNN.

  • Publication number: 20180157972
    Abstract: A system includes a neural network organized into layers corresponding to stages of inferences. The neural network includes a common portion, a first portion, and a second portion. The first portion includes a first set of layers dedicated to performing a first inference task on an input data. The second portion includes a second set of layers dedicated to performing a second inference task on the same input data. The common portion includes a third set of layers, which may include an input layer to the neural network, that are used in the performance of both the first and second inference tasks. The system may receive an input data and perform both inference tasks on the input data in a single pass. During training, a training sample with annotations for both inference tasks may be used to train the neural network in a single pass.
