  • Publication number: 20240111550
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process is disclosed. An application is loaded into a local address space. A request by the application to load a target shared library is intercepted by an interceptor. Using the interceptor and based upon the request being intercepted, a shared library correlation table is searched for a loading count and a loading policy associated with the target shared library. Based upon the loading count and the loading policy, a selection is made between loading the target shared library as a shared library container, and loading the target shared library into the local address space. The target shared library is loaded based upon the selecting. The loading count represents a number of times the target shared library was loaded, and the loading policy indicates how the target shared library is to be loaded.

  • Patent number: 11852618
    Abstract: A system and processing methods for configuring and utilizing a convolutional neural network (CNN) for plant disease recognition are disclosed. In some embodiments, the system is programmed to collect photos of infected plants or leaves where regions showing symptoms of infecting diseases are marked. Each photo may have multiple marked regions. Depending on how the symptoms are sized or clustered, one marked region may include only one lesion caused by one disease, while another may include multiple, closely-spaced lesions caused by one disease. The system is programmed to determine anchor boxes having distinct aspect ratios from these marked regions for each convolutional layer of a single shot multibox detector (SSD). For certain types of plants, common diseases lead to relatively many aspect ratios, some having relatively extreme values. The system is programmed to then train the SSD using the marked regions and the anchor boxes and apply the SSD to new photos to identify diseased plants.

  • Publication number: 20230171077
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums for configuring, based on capability of the user equipment (UE) in switching among multiple component carriers (CCs), the UEs for communications with multiple activated CCs. For example, the network may configure the UE with a number of activated CCs that exceeds a number of CCs supported by the UE for simultaneous connections, such that the UE quickly switches among the activated CCs. The UE can thus effectively utilize more operating bands than the number allowed for simultaneous connections using inter-band carrier aggregations.

  • Patent number: 11657597
    Abstract: A system for detecting clouds and cloud shadows is described. In one approach, clouds and cloud shadows within a remote sensing image are detected through a three step process. In the first stage a high-precision low-recall classifier is used to identify cloud seed pixels within the image. In the second stage, a low-precision high-recall classifier is used to identify potential cloud pixels within the image. Additionally, in the second stage, the cloud seed pixels are grown into the potential cloud pixels to identify clusters of pixels which have a high likelihood of representing clouds. In the third stage, a geometric technique is used to determine pixels which likely represent shadows cast by the clouds identified in the second stage. The clouds identified in the second stage and the shadows identified in the third stage are then exported as a cloud mask and shadow mask of the remote sensing image.
