Abstract: in various examples, a deep neural network (dnn) is trained to accurately predict, in deployment, distances to objects and obstacles using image data alone. the dnn may be trained with ground truth data that is generated and encoded using sensor data from any number of depth predicting sensors, such as, without limitation, radar sensors, lidar sensors, and/or sonar sensors. camera adaptation algorithms may be used in various embodiments to adapt the dnn for use with image data generated by cameras with varying parameters—such as varying fields of view. in some examples, a post-processing safety bounds operation may be executed on the predictions of the dnn to ensure that the predictions fall within a safety-permissible range.


20240135487.IMAGE STITCHING WITH SACCADE-BASED CONTROL OF DYNAMIC SEAM PLACEMENT FOR SURROUND VIEW VISUALIZATION_simplified_abstract_(nvidia corporation)

Inventor(s): Steen KRISTENSEN of Santa Clara CA (US) for nvidia corporation, Simon KIEFHABER of Santa Clara CA (US) for nvidia corporation

IPC Code(s): G06T3/40, G06F3/01



Abstract: in various examples, a stitched image may be generated from overlapping image frames using a dynamic seam placement that depends on scene content and/or other factors. since an optimized seam placement may jump from a previous location from time slice to time slice, one or more constraints may be applied to limit the movement of dynamically placed seams such that any given seam moves gradually over time, limiting potential discontinuities in a visualization of the stitched image on a display. eye tracking may be used to detect a saccade of a monitored person and/or detect that the monitored person is not looking at the display, and one or more of the constraints used to limit the movement of dynamically placed seams may be relaxed or lifted when the monitored person is experiencing a saccade and/or is looking away from the display.


20240135618.GENERATING ARTIFICIAL AGENTS FOR REALISTIC MOTION SIMULATION USING BROADCAST VIDEOS_simplified_abstract_(nvidia corporation)

Inventor(s): Haotian Zhang of Stanford CA (US) for nvidia corporation, Ye Yuan of Santa Clara CA (US) for nvidia corporation, Jason Peng of Vancouver (CA) for nvidia corporation, Viktor Makoviichuk of Santa Clara CA (US) for nvidia corporation, Sanja Fidler of Toronto (CA) for nvidia corporation

IPC Code(s): G06T13/40, G06T7/70, G06T17/00, G06V40/20



Abstract: in various examples, artificial intelligence (ai) agents can be generated to synthesize more natural motion by simulated actors in various visualizations (such as video games or simulations). ai agents may employ one or more machine learning models and techniques, such as reinforcement learning, to enable synthesis of motion with enhanced realism. the ai agent can be trained based on widely-available broadcast video data, without the need for more costly and limited motion capture data. to account for the lower quality of such video data, various techniques can be employed, such as taking into account the motion of joints, and applying physics-based constraints on the actors, resulting in higher quality, more lifelike motion.


20240135630.IMAGE SYNTHESIS USING DIFFUSION MODELS CREATED FROM SINGLE OR MULTIPLE VIEW IMAGES_simplified_abstract_(nvidia corporation)

IPC Code(s): G06T15/06, G06T5/00, G06T5/50, G06V10/44, G06V10/771



Abstract: a method and system for performing novel image synthesis using generative networks are provided. the encoder-based model is trained to infer a 3d representation of an input image. a feature image is then generated using volume rendering techniques in accordance with the 3d representation. the feature image is then concatenated with a noisy image and processed by a denoiser network to predict an output image from a novel viewpoint that is consistent with the input image. the denoiser network can be a modified noise conditional score network (ncsn). in some embodiments, multiple input images or keyframes can be provided as input, and a different 3d representation is generated for each input image. the feature image is then generated, during volume rendering, by sampling each of the 3d representations and applying a mean-pooling operation to generate an aggregate feature image.

IPC Code(s): G10L15/16, G10L15/065



Abstract: in various examples, first textual data may be applied to a first mlm to generate an intermediate speech representation (e.g., a frequency-domain representation), the intermediate audio representation and a second mlm may be used to generate output data indicating second textual data, and parameters of the second mlm may be updated using the output data and ground truth data associated with the first textual data. the first mlm may include a trained text-to-speech (tts) model and the second mlm may include an automatic speech recognition (asr) model. a generator from a generative adversarial networks may be used to enhance an initial intermediate audio representation generated using the first mlm and the enhanced intermediate audio representation may be provided to the second mlm. the generator may include generator blocks that receive the initial intermediate audio representation to sequentially generate the enhanced intermediate audio representation.
