  • Publication number: 20260228599
    Abstract: A system monitors a vehicle navigating in an environment using a pre-trained machine learning model that is configured to make navigation decisions during autonomous driving of the vehicle. The system identifies a first simulated trajectory generated by the pre-trained machine learning model and a first real trajectory driven by the vehicle. In response to determining that a trajectory type of the first real trajectory is one of a plurality of trajectory types that trigger fine-tuning of the pre-trained machine learning model, the system calculates a discrepancy value between the first real trajectory and the first simulated trajectory. In response to determining that the discrepancy value is greater than a threshold discrepancy value, the system updates weights of the pre-trained machine learning model and executes the pre-trained machine learning model with the updated weights.

  • Patent number: 12698000
    Abstract: Systems and methods include detecting obstacles and drivable areas by an autonomous vehicle by inputting image and map data into a neural network to extract feature vectors. A transformer encoder converts these vectors from camera space to Bird's Eye View (BEV) space. A detection head identifies objects, and a segmentation head generates a BEV map showing objects and drivable surfaces. Attributes from both heads are compared, and the segmentation head's weights are updated accordingly, resulting in an updated BEV segmentation map output by the updated segmentation head.

  • Publication number: 20260213919
    Abstract: A system obtains a weight matrix associated with a linear operation, the weight matrix comprising a first non-zero value and a second non-zero value that is a negative value. The system decomposes the weight matrix into a first binary matrix indicating positions of the first non-zero value and a second binary matrix indicating positions of the second non-zero value. The system encrypts vector elements of an input vector using an encryption scheme to obtain an encrypted input vector. For each row of the first and second binary matrices, the system homomorphically processes selected encrypted elements of the encrypted input vector to generate at least two intermediate encrypted aggregates corresponding to respective contribution signs. The system generates an output element for each row based on a combination of the intermediate encrypted aggregates.

  • Publication number: 20260197534
    Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for generating video content where speech audio is accurately synchronized with facial movements. The method begins by converting input text into speech audio using a text-to-speech (TTS) system. An original video is then processed to identify and extract the mouth area of the human face. The method generates a plurality of frames of the mouth area corresponding to segments of the speech audio using a trained generative neural network. These frames are lip-synced with the corresponding audio segments. The extracted mouth area frames are overlaid onto the original video, followed by performing facial reconstruction using a trained facial reconstruction model to correct distortions and achieve a natural and expressive appearance around the mouth area. Finally, the generated speech audio is combined with the modified video to produce a final video with synchronized lip movements and phonetic sounds.

  • Publication number: 20260195269
    Abstract: A system receives a user request to mount a child frontend application comprised in a primary frontend application. The system, in response to receiving the user request, checks whether the child frontend application is in a cache. The system, in response to determining that the child frontend application is not in the cache, mounts the child frontend application and initializes the child frontend application using a first lifecycle function that performs initial setup for the child frontend application. The system stores the child frontend application in the cache using a second lifecycle function for saving a current state of the child frontend application.

  • Patent number: 12676888
    Abstract: Virtual file honeypots (VFHs) are deployed to protect real files in a computing system. The storage footprint is reduced because the virtual file honeypots do not require storage resources. VFHs are generated to appear the same as other files in a computing system, presenting an attractive attack surface as bait to reveal malicious processes and agents. The VFHs are generated on-demand and are not backed up in system storage. The use of VFHs requires less storage capacity than real honeypot files and conserves computing system resources.

  • Publication number: 20260187087
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide a multidimensional data structure to tailor data storage and corresponding user output. Tailored graph data structures reduce the level of hallucination in composing an answer to a user using a large language model. In response to a user query of documents, the user query is translated to a vector. From the vector, the most relevant pieces of documents that are as similar as possible in semantics to the question of a person can be determined and communicated to the user. In one aspect, using the vector base (vector query applied to the documents), a graph can be generated in the form of nodes and connections between data in the documents.
