A method for generating an optimised domain-generalisable model for re-identification of a target in a set of candidate images. The method optimises a local feature embedding model for domain-specific feature representation at each client of a plurality of clients, then receives, at a central server, information on changes to the local feature embedding model at each respective client resulting from the optimising step, and then updates a global feature embedding model based on the changes to the local feature embedding model. The method further receives, at each client from the central server, information representative of the updates to the global feature embedding model, then maps, at each client, on to the respective local feature embedding model at least a portion of the received updates, and subsequently updates, at each client, the respective local feature embedding model based on the mapped updates. The steps are repeated until convergence criteria are met, wherein the global feature embedding model is the optimised domain-generalisable model for re-identification of a target in a set of candidate images.

Examples disclosed herein may involve (i) obtaining a first layer of map data associated with sensor data capturing a geographical area, the first layer of map data comprising an aggregated overhead-view image of the geographical area, where the aggregated overhead-view image is generated from aggregated pixel values from a plurality of images associated with the geographical area, (ii) obtaining a second layer of map data, the second layer of map data comprising label data for the geographical area derived from the aggregated overhead-view image of the geographical area, and (iii) causing the first layer of map data and the second layer of map data to be presented to a user for curation of the label data.

This application relates to systems, methods, devices, and other techniques that can be utilized to generate models for a camera system simulation in a retail environment and perform simulation to perfect these models.

A system and method for translating audio, and video when desired. The translations include synthetic media and data generated using AI systems. Through unique processors and generators executing a unique sequence of steps, the system and method produces more accurate translations that can account for various speech characteristics (e.g., emotion, pacing, idioms, sarcasm, jokes, tone, phonemes, etc.). These speech characteristics are identified in the input media and synthetically incorporated into the translated outputs to mirror the characteristics in the input media. Some embodiments further include systems and methods that manipulate the input video such that the speakers’ faces and/or lips appear as if they are natively speaking the generated audio.

Provided is a method for performing accurate object recognition in a stable manner in consideration of changes in a shooting environment. In such a method, a camera captures an image of a shooting location where an object is to be placed and an object included in an image of the shooting location is recognized utilizing a machine learning model for object recognition. The method further involves: determining necessity of an update operation on the machine learning model for object recognition at a predetermined time; when the update operation is necessary, causing the camera to capture an image of the shooting location where no object is placed to thereby re-acquire a background image for training; and causing the machine learning model to be trained using a composite image of a backgroundless object image and the re-acquired background image for training as training data.
