A method is provided for identifying or authenticating an object. The method includes vibrating the object at a plurality of frequencies. The vibrations from the object are sensed at each of the plurality of frequencies using an accelerometer. A vibration profile of the object is generated using the sensed vibrations. The generated vibration profile is then compared to a stored vibration profile. It is determined if the generated vibration profile matches the stored vibration profile. A match indicates that the object has been identified or authenticated. In another embodiment, an object capable of implementing the method is provided. In another embodiment, the object may include a replaceable accessary. In this case, the initial and generated vibration profiles may be created with the replacement accessary attached to the object. A match of the generated and initial vibration profiles indicates that the replaceable accessary is authentic.

Embodiments herein provide a method for generating a real-time radio coverage map in a wireless network by a network apparatus. The method includes: receiving real-time geospatial information from one or more geographical sources in the wireless network; determining handover information of at least one user equipment (UE) in the wireless network from a plurality of base stations based on the real-time geospatial information; and generating the real-time radio coverage map based on the handover information of at least one UE and the real-time geospatial information.

The technology disclosed relates to a variant pathogenicity classifier. The variant pathogenicity classifier comprises memory and runtime logic. The memory stores (i) a reference amino acid sequence of a protein, (ii) an alternative amino acid sequence of the protein that contains a variant amino acid caused by a variant nucleotide, and (iii) a protein contact map of the protein. The runtime logic has access to the memory, and is configured to provide (i) the reference amino acid sequence, (ii) the alternative amino acid sequence, and (iii) the protein contact map as input to a first neural network, and to cause the first neural network to generate a pathogenicity indication of the variant amino acid as output in response to processing (i) the reference amino acid sequence, (ii) the alternative amino acid sequence, and (iii) the protein contact map.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus, systems, computing devices, computing entities, and/or the like for detecting objects located in an area of interest. In accordance with one embodiment, a method is provided comprising: receiving, via an interface provided through a general instance on a cloud environment, imaging data comprising raw images collected on the area of interest; upon receiving the images: activating a central processing unit (CPU) focused instance on the cloud environment and processing, via the image, the raw images to generate an image map of the area of interest; and after generating the image map: activating a graphical processing unit (GPU) focused instance on the cloud environment and performing object detection, via the image, on a region within the image map by applying one or more object detection algorithms to the region to identify locations of the objects in the region.

A method and apparatus for detecting an abnormality of a manufacturing facility is disclosed. According to an example embodiment of the present disclosure, a learning model generating method for manufacturing facility abnormality detection may include receiving a measured value for a normal state of a manufacturing facility collected through a multi-sensor on a time-by-time basis, generating a learning model including a predetermined weight set and training the learning model using the measured value, and determining, using the learning model, a threshold corresponding to a boundary between the normal state and an abnormal state of the manufacturing facility and a criterion for determining the abnormal state in a local window representing a predetermined time interval.

A method and apparatus for processing image data is provided. The method includes the steps of employing a main processing network for classifying one or more features of the image data, employing a monitor processing network for determining one or more confusing classifications of the image data, and spawning a specialist processing network to process image data associated with the one or more confusing classifications.

A system and method of identifying objects is provided. In one aspect, the system and method includes a hand-held device with a display, camera and processor. As the camera captures images and displays them on the display, the processor compares the information retrieved in connection with one image with information retrieved in connection with subsequent images. The processor uses the result of such comparison to determine the object that is likely to be of greatest interest to the user. The display simultaneously displays the images the images as they are captured, the location of the object in an image, and information retrieved for the object.

A device occupation method includes a first device that obtains information related to the first device or information related to a second device, where the second device occupies a first to-be-occupied device, and the first device prepares to occupy the first to-be-occupied device, and occupying, by the first device, the first to-be-occupied device when the information matches.

In various examples, physical sensor data may be generated by a vehicle in a real-world environment. The physical sensor data may be used to train deep neural networks (DNNs). The DNNs may then be tested in a simulated environment—in some examples using hardware configured for installation in a vehicle to execute an autonomous driving software stack—to control a virtual vehicle in the simulated environment or to otherwise test, verify, or validate the outputs of the DNNs. Prior to use by the DNNs, virtual sensor data generated by virtual sensors within the simulated environment may be encoded to a format consistent with the format of the physical sensor data generated by the vehicle.

Embodiments provide a deep learning framework to accurately segment liver and spleen using a convolutional neural network with both short and long residual connections to extract their radiomic and deep features from multiparametric MRI. Embodiments will provide an “ensemble” deep learning model to quantify biopsy derived liver fibrosis stage and percentage using the integration of multiparametric MRI radiomic and deep features, MRE data, as well as routinely available clinical data. Embodiments will provide a deep learning model to quantify MRE-derived liver stiffness using multiparametric MRI, radiomic and deep features and routinely-available clinical data.
