  • Patent number: 11869227
    Abstract: Image recognition may include obtaining a first image, segmenting the first image into a plurality of first regions by using a target model, and searching for a target region among bounding boxes in the first image that use points in the first regions as centers. The target region is a bounding box in the first image in which a target object is located. The target model is a pre-trained neural network model configured to recognize from an image, a region in which the target object is located. The target model is obtained through training by using positive samples with a region in which the target object is located marked and negative samples with a region in which a noise is located marked. The target region is marked in the first image to improve accuracy of target object detection in an image.

  • Patent number: 11856402
    Abstract: Techniques for identity-based message integrity protection and verification between a user equipment (UE) and a wireless network entity, include use of signatures derived from identity-based keys. To protect against attacks from rogue network entities before activation of a security context with a network entity, the UE verifies integrity of messages by checking a signature using an identity-based public key PKID derived by the UE based on (i) an identity value (ID) of the network entity and (ii) a separate public key PKPKG of a private key generator (PKG) server. The network entity generates signatures for messages using an identity-based private key SKID obtained from the PKG server, which generates the identity-based private key SKID using (i) the ID value of the network entity and (ii) a private key SKPKG that is known only by the PKG server and corresponds to the public key PKPKG.

  • Publication number: 20230355869
    Abstract: A low dose drug delivery pod comprised of a reciprocating pump, an active valve set, and, in some embodiments, a dispense confirmation sensor. The active valve set can be designed with mechanical interference between them so that both the inlet and outlet valve must close before either one opens, ensuring that at least one of the two valves is closed at all times. The dispense confirmation sensor is a flow-based detection system that provides rapid feedback if an individual dose has or has not been delivered.

  • Patent number: 11792159
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for deploying network elements for a set of machines in a set of one or more datacenters. The datacenter set is part of one availability zone in some embodiments. The method receives intent-based API (Application Programming Interface) requests, and parses these API requests to identify a set of network elements to connect and/or perform services for the set of machines. In some embodiments, the API is a hierarchical document that can specify multiple different compute and/or network elements at different levels of compute and/or network element hierarchy. The method performs automated processes to define a virtual private cloud (VPC) to connect the set of machines to a logical network that segregates the set of machines from other machines in the datacenter set. In some embodiments, the set of machines include virtual machines and containers, the VPC is defined with a supervisor cluster namespace, and the API requests are provided as YAML files.

  • Publication number: 20230244591
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for monitoring a container cluster that includes multiple nodes on which application resources are deployed. The method deploys an agent on each node of a set of nodes of the cluster. Each agent is for configuring a logical network on the node to which the agent is deployed. The method monitors status of the deployed agents. Upon detection that a particular agent on a particular node is no longer operating correctly, the method prevents a container cluster control plane from deploying application resources to the particular node.

  • Publication number: 20230117540
    Abstract: The subject technology receives, at a local device, a requested camera format based on specifications of a display associated with a remote device. The remote device and the local device are devices participating in a video conference. The requested camera format includes a first resolution. Camera formats supported by a camera associated with the local device are determined. If a second resolution of a first camera format matches among the supported camera formats matches with the first resolution, the first camera format is selected for capturing the video stream by the camera. Otherwise, a second camera format among the supported camera formats is determined for capturing the video stream so as to maximize a field of view of the video stream relative to other camera formats supported by the camera.

  • Patent number: 11512976
    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a latitude-free initial alignment method under a swaying base based on gradient descent optimization. Firstly, swaying base latitude-free alignment is regarded as a Wahba attitude determination problem to inhibit device noise interference, and an objective function is established based on a gravitational acceleration vector under an earth system; then an exact solution of the objective function is obtained through a gradient descent optimization method, and inertial system conversion quaternion estimation is achieved under the latitude-free condition; and finally, an attitude quaternion is determined by only using information of an accelerometer and a gyroscope of a strapdown attitude heading reference system, and therefore latitude-free initial alignment under the swaying base is achieved.
