  • Patent number: 11968745
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for providing UICC/eUICC related response information to information requests at a cellular router. The method includes receiving an information request from a wireless communication module, and determining whether a response to the information request is cached. When the response information is not cached, forwarding the information request to a massive SIM apparatus (MSA). MSA will then respond to the information request. A response based on the MSA's response will then be sent to the wireless communication module for the information request. When the response information is cached, retrieve the response information and send it to the wireless communication module.

  • Patent number: 11950321
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for communicating at a cellular router between a first wireless communication module and a first subscriber identity module (SIM). The cellular router receives a first request from a first wireless communication module and encapsulates the first request in a first modified request. The cellular router then sends the first modified request to a first SIM card in a first communication apparatus and waits for a first modified reply. While waiting for the first modified reply the cellular router sends at least one halt message to the first wireless communication module after a first time threshold. After receiving the first modified reply, the cellular router decapsulates the first modified reply to retrieve a first reply and sends the first reply to the first wireless communication module where the first modified reply is a reply to the first modified request.

  • Publication number: 20240104893
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method for increasing the confidence of a match between the test image and an image stored in a library database. Features are extracted from the test image and compared to features stored in the image database and, if a match is determined, one or more transformations are performed on the test image to generate pose-altered images. Features are then extracted from the pose-altered images and matched with pose-altered images in the database. The scores for the subsequent matchings can be aggregated to determine an overall probability of a match between the test image in an image in the library database.

  • Patent number: 11943839
    Abstract: A method and a wireless communication device for providing communication service to devices connected to the wireless communication device. By establishing a starter wireless carrier connection using a starter SIM from a plurality of local SIMs, the wireless communication device establishes one or more logical data connections with one or more SIM banks. Remote-SIMs are selected from the one or more SIM banks and used to establish further wireless carrier connections to allow communication service to be provided to the devices over wireless carrier connections.

  • Publication number: 20240095524
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method for evolving a deep neural network model by searching for hidden sub-networks within the model. The model is evolved by adding convolutional layers to the model, then pruning the model to remove redundant filters. The model is exposed to training samples of increasing complexity each time the model is evolved, until a desired level of performance is achieved, at which time, the model is exposed to all available training data.

  • Publication number: 20240073674
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for establishing data communication at a network device. The method includes identifying a cellular network by the network device. After that, the network device sends a request to an MSA for an embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) profile of the cellular network. The MSA may or may not have an eSIM profile of the cellular network available. When an eSIM profile of the cellular network is available, the network device receives the eSIM profile information from the MSA. The network device then sends a request for data communication access to the cellular network using the eSIM profile information to obtain data communication access through the cellular network. The network device may comprise at least one universal integrated circuit card (UICC) and/or embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC).

  • Publication number: 20240071024
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method for performing pose-correction on images containing objects within a scene, or the entire scene, to compensate for off-centered camera views. The system and method generates a more frontal view of the object or scene by applying planar homography by identifying corner endpoints of the object or the scene and repositioning the corner endpoints to provide a more frontal view. The pose-corrected scene may then be input to an object detector to determine a location of a bounding box of an object-of-interest which would be more accurate than a bounding box from the original off-centered image.

  • Patent number: 11915463
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method of identifying new products on a retail shelf using a feature extractor trained to extract features from images of products on the shelf and output identifying information regarding the product in the product image. The extracted features are compared to extracted features in a product library and a best-fit is obtained. A new product is identified if the distance between the features of the product on the shelf and the features of the best-fit product from the product library are above a predetermined threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240062532
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method for pooling local features for fine-grained image classification. The deep features learned by the deep network are augmented with low level local landmark features by learning a pooling strategy that pools landmark features from earlier layers of the deep network. These low level landmark features are combined with the deep features and sent to the classifier.

  • Publication number: 20240057176
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for using one or more substitute connections between a cellular router and a server. When the server detects that one or more connections fail, the server starts using one or more substitute connections to the one or more failed connections. The connections are used to transmit requests and responses between the cellular router and the server. The requests comprise authentication requests that are transmitted to the server from the cellular router. The responses comprise authentication responses that are transmitted to the cellular router from the server. The authentication requests and the authentication responses are to authenticate one or more SIM cards housed in the server. The cellular router authenticates the one or more SIM cards by utilizing the authentication responses to keep maintaining respective cellular connections established using the one or more SIM cards from the server.
