A temporal sequence of multi-modal signals is generated from a feature probe signal, a relation probe signal, and attribute probe signal, and multi-modal signals are selected from the temporal sequence of multi-modal signals. The selected multi-modal signals are compared to a model multi-modal…
A corner bracket comprising a volume of matter having n pairs of parallel faces, where n is an integer larger than 2; each face of each pair of parallel faces comprising an opening; the openings in the faces of each pair of parallel faces being joined by a cylindrical recess having a longitudinal…
A computer system is disclosed for processing a sensor signal comprising a signal component and a noise component. A signal shifter is configured to generate a shifted version of the sensor signal, and a blind source separator (BSS) module is configured to process the sensor signal and the shifted…
Described is a system for training a neural network for estimating surface normals for use in operating an autonomous platform. The system uses a parallelizable k-nearest neighbor sorting algorithm to provide a patch of points, sampled from the point cloud data, as input to the neural network…
Described is a system for learning object labels for control of an autonomous platform. Pseudo-task optimization is performed to identify an optimal pseudo-task for each source model of one or more source models. An initial target network is trained using the optimal pseudo-task. Source image…
Described is a system for competency assessment of an autonomous system. The system extracts semantic concepts representing a situation. Actions taken by the autonomous system are associated with semantic concepts that are activated when the actions are taken in the situation. The system measures…
A lithium-ion battery structure with a third electrode as reference electrode is disclosed. The reference electrode may be fabricated from lithium metal, lithiated carbon, or a variety of other lithium-containing electrode materials. A porous current collector allows permeation of reference lithium…
