  • Patent number: 12271983
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that implements related image search and image modification processes using various search engines and a consolidated graphical user interface. For instance, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems receive an input digital image and search input and further modify the input digital image using the image search results retrieved in response to the search input. In some cases, the search input includes a multi-modal search input having multiple queries (e.g., an image query and a text query), and the disclosed systems retrieve the image search results utilizing a weighted combination of the queries. In some implementations, the disclosed systems generate an input embedding for the search input (e.g., the multi-modal search input) and retrieve the image search results using the input embedding.

  • Patent number: 12273292
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may measure a frequency selectivity of a channel between the UE and a base station and may transmit signaling to the base station indicating one or both of a frequency selectivity metric or a recommended demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port multiplexing pattern based on measuring the frequency selectivity. In some aspects, the UE may transmit the signaling to assist the base station in configuring a DMRS port multiplexing pattern based on current channel conditions. For example, if the frequency selectivity metric satisfies a threshold, the UE may recommend a DMRS port multiplexing pattern absent of code division multiplexing (CDM). Alternatively, if the frequency selectivity metric fails to satisfy the threshold, the UE may recommend a DMRS port multiplexing patter including CDM.

  • Publication number: 20250080298
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described that support user equipment (UE)-assisted transmission and reception point (TRP) synchronization. A first TRP and a second TRP may send a first downlink reference signal (RS) and a second downlink RS to an assisting UE. The assisting UE may transmit a first uplink RS to the first TRP and a second uplink RS to the second TRP, where the first uplink RS and the second uplink RS are precoded based on the first downlink RS and the second downlink RS. A central node may calculate a relative timing offset, relative phase offset, or both, between the first TRP and the second TRP based on the first uplink RS and the second uplink RS. Then, one of the first TRP or the second TRP may use the relative timing offset, phase offset, or both to synchronize with the other TRP.
