Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for using a machine-trained model to identify individual objects within images. The technique then creates a relational index for the identified objects. That is, each index entry in the relational index is associated with a given object, and includes a set of attributes pertaining to the given object. One such attribute identifies at least one latent semantic vector associated with the given object. Each attribute provides a way of linking the given object to one or more other objects in the relational index. In one application of this technique, a user may submit a query that specifies a query object. The technique consults the relational index to find one or more objects that are related to the query object. In some cases, the query object and each of the other objects have a complementary relationship.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for enabling a mesh network node to switch from a base station role to a user equipment role relative to a second mesh network node, and vice versa. By switching roles in this manner, the mesh network node may be able to benefit from increased uplink or downlink speed in the new role. This role reversal technique is particularly useful when using wireless protocols such as LTE that are asymmetric and allow differing throughput on uplink and downlink connections. Methods for determining whether to perform role reversal are disclosed, and methods for using role reversal in mesh networks comprising greater than two nodes are also disclosed.
