The present invention provides a robust and effective solution to an entity or an organization for creating and standardizing an Automotive Data Quality Marker (ADQM) to determine/evaluate/predict the quality of automotive data such as Telematics, Body Control, ADAS, Diagnostics, Dashcams, and In-Vehicle Infotainment but not limited to the like generated by the vehicle (i.e., data source) using a machine learning (ML) engine associated with a processing unit. The machine learning engine comprises an amalgamation of machine learning algorithms to determine ADQM for a particular dataset. Data pertaining to vehicles is huge and repetitive. Re-training of the model for improved accuracy is a requirement as automotive data can be augmented with additional signals and data received and stored as trip objects on a regular basis.

Methods and systems for implementing artificial intelligence enabled metrology are disclosed. An example method includes segmenting a first image of structure into one or more classes to form an at least partially segmented image, associating at least one class of the at least partially segmented image with a second image, and performing metrology on the second image based on the association with at least one class of the at least partially segmented image.

Electronic message text classification framework selection is described. An incoming electronic message is classified using a current text classification framework. A classification of the electronic message by the current text classification framework is scored. A cost of re-training the current text classification is compared against a cost of switching to a different text classification framework. One of multiple text classification frameworks, which includes the current text classification framework and other text classification frameworks, is selected based on the score of the classification by the current text classification framework and a result of the comparison.

Disclosed is an electronic apparatus comprising, a memory configured to store instructions; and at least one processor connected to the memory, and configured to detect at least one object of a first-class object or a second-class object included in a target image by the electronic apparatus using an artificial intelligent algorithm to apply the target image to a learned neural network model, and identify and apply an image-quality processing method to be individually applied to at least one detected object, the neural network model is set to detect an object included in an image, as trained based on learning data such as an image, a class to which the image belongs, information about the first-class object included in the image, and information about the second-class object included in the image.

A vision sensor includes a pixel array comprising pixels arranged in a matrix, an event detection circuit, an event rate controller, and an interface circuit. Each pixel is configured to generate an electrical signal in response to detecting a change in incident light intensity. The event detection circuit detects whether a change in incident light intensity has occurred at any pixels, based on processing electrical signals received from one or more pixels, and generates one or more event signals corresponding to one or more pixels at which a change in intensity of incident light is determined to have occurred. The event rate controller selects a selection of one or more event signals corresponding to a region of interest on the pixel array as one or more output event signals. The interface circuit communicates with an external processor to transmit the one or more output event signals to the external processor.

To prevent intent classifiers from potentially choosing intents that are ineligible for the current input due to policies, dynamic intent classification systems and methods are provided that dynamically control the possible set of intents using environment variables (also referred to as external variables). Associations between environment variables and ineligible intents, referred to as culling rules, are used.

Systems and methods for processing and using sensor data. The methods comprise: obtaining semantic labels assigned to data points; performing a supervised machine learning algorithm and an unsupervised machine learning algorithm to respectively generate a first confidence score and a second confidence score for each semantic label of said semantic labels, the first and second confidence scores each representing a degree of confidence that the semantic label is correctly assigned to a respective one of the data points; generating a final confidence score for each said semantic label based on the first and second confidence scores; selecting subsets of the data points based on the final confidence scores; and aggregating the data points of the subsets to produce an aggregate set of data points.

A method for perception and fitting for a stair tracker includes receiving sensor data for a robot adjacent to a staircase. For each stair of the staircase, the method includes detecting, at a first time step, an edge of a respective stair of the staircase based on the sensor data. The method also includes determining whether the detected edge is a most likely step edge candidate by comparing the detected edge from the first time step to an alternative detected edge at a second time step, the second time step occurring after the first time step. When the detected edge is the most likely step edge candidate, the method includes defining, by the data processing hardware, a height of the respective stair based on sensor data height about the detected edge. The method also includes generating a staircase model including stairs with respective edges at the respective defined heights.

In one aspect, hierarchical image segmentation is applied to an image formed of a plurality of pixels, by classifying the pixels according to a hierarchical classification scheme, in which at least some of those pixels are classified by a parent level classifier in relation to a set of parent classes, each of which is associated with a subset of child classes, and each of those pixels is also classified by at least one child level classifier in relation to one of the subsets of child classes, wherein each of the parent classes corresponds to a category of visible structure, and each of the subset of child classes associated with it corresponds to a different type of visible structure within that category.
