  • Patent number: 11615288
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to secure broker-mediated data analysis and prediction. One example embodiment includes a method. The method includes receiving, by a managing computing device, a plurality of datasets from client computing devices. The method also includes computing, by the managing computing device, a shared representation based on a shared function having one or more shared parameters. Further, the method includes transmitting, by the managing computing device, the shared representation and other data to the client computing devices. In addition, the method includes, based on the shared representation and the other data, the client computing devices update partial representations and individual functions with one or more individual parameters. Still further, the method includes determining, by the client computing devices, feedback values to provide to the managing computing device.

  • Patent number: 9117310
    Abstract: A virtual camera system comprises a plurality of physical cameras and a hardware setup miming software to create virtual viewpoints for the virtual camera system. The position of the physical cameras is constrained, where the main constraint is the overlap between the physical cameras. The present invention provides a method for creating a virtual viewpoint of a plurality of images captured by the plurality of cameras, the images comprising current frames and previous frames.
