Image data is obtained about an area that includes a plurality of sub-areas. One of the sub-areas is selected as a destination sub-area based on the destination sub-area being unoccupied. Then, upon detecting a candidate marker for the destination sub-area, the image data including the candidate marker is provided to a remote computer. A vehicle is operated to a stop in the destination sub-area. Then, upon receiving a message from the remote computer specifying an availability of the destination sub-area based at least on the image data, the vehicle is maintained in the destination sub-area or the vehicle is operated out of the destination sub-area.

An x-ray image laterality detection system is provided. The x-ray image laterality detection system includes a detection computing device. The processor of the computing device is programmed to execute a neural network model for analyzing x-ray images, wherein the neural network model is trained with training x-ray images as inputs and observed laterality classes associated with the training x-ray images as outputs. The process is also programmed to receive an unclassified x-ray image, analyze the unclassified x-ray image using the neural network model, and assign a laterality class to the unclassified x-ray image. If the assigned laterality class is not target laterality, the processor is programmed to adjust the unclassified x-ray image to derive a corrected x-ray image having the target laterality and output the corrected x-ray image. If the assigned laterality class is the target laterality, the processor is programmed to output the unclassified x-ray image.

In one embodiment, an object detection model analysis system including a computer and an interface device. The interface device includes a display device. The computer includes an electronic processor that is configured to extract object information from image data with a first object detection model, extract characteristics of objects from metadata associated with image data, generate a summary of the object information and the characteristics, generate coordinated visualizations based on the summary and the characteristics, generate a recommendation graphical user interface element based on the coordinated visualizations and a first one or more user inputs, and update the first object detection model based at least in part on a classification of one or more individual objects as an actual weakness in the first object detection model to generate a second object detection model for autonomous driving.

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for automatic image selection for online product catalogs. An image selection system gathers feature data for images of an item included in listings posted to an online marketplace. The image selection system uses the feature data as input in a machine learning model to determine probability scores indicating an estimated probability that each image is suitable to represent the item. The machine learning model is trained based on a set of training images of the item that have been labeled to indicate whether they are suitable to represent the image. The image selection system compares the probability scores and selects an image to represent the item as a stock image based on the comparison.

An interactive autonomous driving system for an autonomous driving vehicle may include: a target mapping device that determines whether an obstacle is present in a predetermined range of a target selected by a passenger and outputting obstacle information; a target attribute determination device that determines a target attribute based on the obstacle information and outputs target controllable item information; and a processor that generates control mode recommendation information selectable by the passenger based on the target controllable item information and outputs target attribute information and a selected control mode when control mode selection information is received from the passenger.

Systems and methods for predicting user interaction with vehicles. A computing device receives an image and a video segment of a road scene, the first at least one of an image and a video segment being taken from a perspective of a participant in the road scene and then generates stimulus data based on the image and the video segment. Stimulus data is transmitted to a user interface and response data is received, which includes at least one of an action and a likelihood of the action corresponding to another participant in the road scene. The computing device aggregates a subset of the plurality of response data to form statistical data and a model is created based on the statistical data. The model is applied to another image or video segment and a prediction of user behavior in the another image or video segment is generated.

A computing system generates a training data set for training the prediction model to detect defects present in a target surface of a target specimen and training the prediction model to detect defects present in the target surface of the target specimen based on the training data set. The computing system generates the training data set by identifying a set of images for training the prediction model, the set of images comprising a first subset of images. A deep learning network generates a second subset of images for subsequent labelling based on the set of images comprising the first subset of images. The deep learning network generates a third subset of images for labelling based on the set of images comprising the first subset of images and the labeled second subset of images. The computing system continues the process until a threshold number of labeled images is generated.

An interactive learning cycle includes an operator, a computer and a pool of images. The operator produces a sparsely-labeled data set. A back-end system produces live feedback: a densely-labeled training set which is displayed on the computer. Immediate feedback is displayed in color on the operator computer in less than about five seconds. A labeling tool displays a user interface and for every labeling project a region is defined that is downloaded as an image data batch. The operator annotates on a per-image basis in the region and uses several UI tools to mark features in the image and group them to a predefined label class. The back-end system includes processes that run in parallel and feed back into each other, each executing a model. A local model is used independently of the global model. The global model accepts sparsely-labeled images from numerous operator computers.
