  • Publication number: 20220383048
    Abstract: Current pretrained vision-language models for cross-modal retrieval tasks in English depend upon on the availability of many annotated image-caption datasets for pretraining to have English text. However, the texts are not necessarily in English. Although machine translation (MT) tools may be used to translate text to English, the performance largely relies on MT's quality and may suffer from high latency problems in real-world applications. Embodiments herein address these problems by learning cross-lingual cross-modal representations for matching images and their relevant captions in multiple languages. Embodiments seamlessly combine cross-lingual pretraining objectives and cross-modal pretraining objectives in a unified framework to learn image and text in a joint embedding space from available English image-caption data, monolingual corpus, and parallel corpus. Embodiments are shown to achieve state-of-the-art performance in retrieval tasks on multimodal multilingual image caption datasets.

  • Patent number: 10302266
    Abstract: A vehicular headlamp includes a reflector, a lighting element and a shade with a reflection body. The shade is fixed to the reflector, with the reflection body extending forward from the front end of the shade. The reflection body includes a reflective surface inclined to face a front of the headlamp and a supplemental light plane inclined to face a rear of the headlamp. The lighting element emits light to the reflector, which is then reflected towards the upper surface of the shade, the reflective surface of the reflection body, and the supplemental light plane, before being projected as a main light beam towards an outside of the vehicle. The reflective surface and the supplemental light plane redirect at least a portion of light from a lower part of the main light beam and the supplemental light plane redirect at least a portion of projected on an opposite lane, an upper part of the main light beam.

  • Publication number: 20180224085
    Abstract: A shading module for enhancing the light intensity of a vehicular headlamp includes a shade, a reflection body, and a lighting element. The shade is fixed to a reflector of the vehicular headlamp and located under the reflector. The reflection body is extended frontward from the front end of the shade and has a reflective surface and a supplemental light plane. The lighting element emits light to the reflector. The reflector reflects the light to the upper surface of the shade, the reflective surface of the reflection body, and the supplemental light plane, so as to project a main light beam on an environment outside the vehicle. The reflective surface reduces the light intensity of a lower part of the main light beam projected on an opposite lane, and the supplemental light plane enhances the light intensity of an upper part of the main light beam.
