Publication number: 20250149058Abstract: Apparatus and methods related to separation of audio sources are provided. The method includes receiving an audio waveform associated with a plurality of video frames. The method includes estimating, by a neural network, one or more audio sources associated with the plurality of video frames. The method includes generating, by the neural network, one or more audio embeddings corresponding to the one or more estimated audio sources. The method includes determining, based on the audio embeddings and a video embedding, whether one or more audio sources of the one or more estimated audio sources correspond to objects in the plurality of video frames. The method includes predicting, by the neural network and based on the one or more audio embeddings and the video embedding, a version of the audio waveform comprising audio sources that correspond to objects in the plurality of video frames.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2025Publication date: May 8, 2025Inventors: Efthymios Tzinis, Scott Wisdom, Aren Jansen, John R.

Patent number: 11722017Abstract: An adaptive system for efficient and long-range wireless power delivery using magnetically coupled resonators responds to changes in a dynamic environment, and maintains high efficiency over a narrow or fixed frequency range. The system uses adaptive impedance matching to maintain high efficiency. The wireless power transfer system includes a drive inductor coupled to a high-Q transmitter coil, and a load inductor coupled to a high-Q receiver coil. The transmitter coil and receiver coil for a magnetically coupled resonator. A first matching network is (i) operably coupled to the drive inductor and configured to selectively adjust the impedance between the drive inductor and the transmitter coil, or (ii) is operably coupled to the load inductor and configured to selectively adjust the impedance between the load inductor and the receiver coil.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: University of Washington through its Center for CommercializationInventors: Joshua R.
