Systems and methods for self-supervised residual flow estimation

A method includes generating a first warped image based on a pose and a depth estimated from a current image and a previous image in a sequence of images captured by a camera of the agent. The method also includes estimating a motion of dynamic object between the previous image and the target image. The method further includes generating a second warped image from the first warped image based on the estimated motion. The method still further includes controlling an action of an agent based on the second warped image.

Real-time localization error correction of autonomous vehicle

The present disclosure relates to real-time localization error correction of an autonomous vehicle (AV). A processor for real-time localization error correction of the AV is provided. The processor is configured to retrieve a reference landmark around the AV from a map aggregating server (MAS), wherein the AV is configured to interact with the MAS for real-time localization; detect, in real time, a ground truth landmark corresponding to the reference landmark, according to image data captured by one or more image capture devices installed on the AV; and determine a deviation between the ground truth landmark and the reference landmark as a real-time correction value for the real-time localization of the AV.

On-board apparatus, first information processing apparatus, information processing system, and information processing method

A medical treatment server is configured to reduce load on physicians for work other than examination and treatment. The server is configured to send recruiting conditions and in response receive undertaking conditions that are related to a physician who does not belong to the medical facility. A controller decides whether to appoint the physician depending on whether a pickup location included in the received undertaking conditions is apart from a location of the medical facility by a distance equal to or greater than a threshold. Upon deciding to appoint the physician, the controller determines a pickup location included in the undertaking conditions to be a stopover point.

SENSOR PERTURBATION

Perception sensors of a vehicle can be used for various operating functions of the vehicle. A computing device may receive sensor data from the perception sensors, and may calibrate the perception sensors using the sensor data, to enable effective operation of the vehicle. To calibrate the sensors, the computing device may project the sensor data into a voxel space, and determine a voxel score comprising an occupancy score and a residual value for each voxel. The computing device may then adjust an estimated position and/or orientation of the sensors, and associated sensor data, from at least one perception sensor to minimize the voxel score. The computing device may calibrate the sensor using the adjustments corresponding to the minimized voxel score. Additionally, the computing device may be configured to calculate an error in a position associated with the vehicle by calibrating data corresponding to a same point captured at different times.
