  • Publication number: 20250232021
    Abstract: Connected computing enables the use of highly diverse environments that support operating frameworks for contemporary civilization. But computing productivity and trustworthiness are undermined by such environments' largely inchoate organization. These environments and their identity infrastructures are fragmented, and unnecessarily unreliable, insecure, and insufficiently informative due to current computing entity (e.g., resource) identification infrastructure design, which lacks root identification reliability. Such reliability is enabled herein by a fundamentally accurate and authenticity ensuring, near-existential or existential quality, biometrically and liveness based, portable identification and provenance infrastructure. Such an infrastructure provides ubiquitously available identification information that can be used universally for identification processes.

  • Publication number: 20250234202
    Abstract: A method, performed by a first node (111) operating in a communications system (100), for handling a Denial of Service (DOS) attack. The first node (111) receives (401), from a second node (112) operating outside of the communications system (100), a first message. The first message indicates i) an identifier identifying the second node (112), and ii) a first indication. The first indication indicates at least one of: i) one or more target nodes (121) outside of the communications system (100) under DOS attack, and ii) one or more source nodes (122) of the attack. The first message also indicates iii) a second indication indicating an action to be taken to mitigate the attack. The first node (111) also initiates (403) sending, directly or indirectly, a second message to one of one or more third nodes (113, 114, 115, 116, 117) in the communications system (100).

  • Publication number: 20250232438
    Abstract: A plant or a group of plants in a grow facility may be registered for tracking based on a corresponding unique plant identifier (UPI) feature set as extracted from one or more images captured by a plurality of image sensors monitoring the grow facility. One or more locations of the plant or the group of plants in the grow facility at one or more dates and times may be identified based on the corresponding UPI feature set as the plant or the group of plants grow in the grow facility. The plant or the group of plants may be de-registered from being tracked based on the corresponding UPI feature set when the plant or the group of plants reaches an end of a growth cycle in the grow facility. Alternatively, visual identifier devices and/or regions of interest (ROIs) may be used with or without UPI feature sets for such tracking.

  • Publication number: 20250232469
    Abstract: A relocalizer model for an environment is trained using an iterative process. To initialize the relocalizer model, an initial image is registered with its camera pose established as the reference. In each subsequent iteration of training, the relocalizer model is applied to additional images to predict pose estimates for the images. The images and their pose estimates are then leveraged in retraining of the relocalizer model. In general, the training of the relocalizer model entails extracting scene coordinates for pixels of a training image. The scene coordinates are then projected into a projection based on the pose estimate of the training image. A loss is calculated between the projection and the training image. And parameters of the relocalizer model are adjusted to minimize the loss. The iterative training may continue until an end condition is met. The trained relocalizer model is configured to input an image of the environment and to output the camera pose for the image.

  • Publication number: 20250231271
    Abstract: In one general aspect, RF localization methods and systems are disclosed. An exemplary method includes providing a node having a communications device and antenna elements; capturing, via the communications device, a relative signal strength indicator (RSSI) value for each antenna element to generate cardinal RSSI values associated with a RF signal; and determining, using the cardinal RSSI values, a position of a RF source of interest (RFSOI) relative to the node. The antenna elements are oriented in each nodal cardinal direction and conductively coupled to the communications device. The RF signal emanates from the RFSOI. Capturing the RSSI value for each antenna element may include causing a RF switch to successively activate the antenna elements in a predetermined order; capturing the RSSI value of each antenna element when activated; and determining at least two cardinal RSSI values that are greater than a predetermined amount thereby determining antenna elements of interest.
