Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for autonomous driving with only a single camera by moving object localization in 3D with a real-time framework that harnesses object detection and monocular structure from motion (SFM) through the ground plane estimation; tracking feature points on moving cars a real-time framework to and use the feature points for 3D orientation estimation; and correcting scale drift with ground plane estimation that combines cues from sparse features and dense stereo visual data.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for object detection by receiving an image; segmenting the image; extracting features from the image; and performing a dimension-wise spatial layout selection to pick up dimensions inside a discriminative spatial region for classification.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for scheduling jobs to manycore nodes in a cluster include selecting a job to run according to the job's wait time and the job's expected execution time; sending job requirements to all nodes in a cluster, where each node includes a manycore processor; determining at each node whether said node has sufficient resources to ever satisfy the job requirements and, if no node has sufficient resources, deleting the job; creating a list of nodes that have sufficient free resources at a present time to satisfy the job requirements; and assigning the job to a node, based on a difference between an expected execution time and associated confidence value for each node and a hypothetical fastest execution time and associated hypothetical maximum confidence value.
Abstract:
A hybrid ultracapacitor-battery energy storage system is integrated with a photovoltaic system to help solve fluctuations. A fuzzy-logic-based adaptive power management system enables optimization of the power/energy distributions and a filter-based power coordination layer serving as a rudimentary step for power coordination among the hybrid storage system and a fuzzy-logic-based control adjustment layer that keeps monitoring the operation status of all the energy storage devices, taking into account their dynamic characteristics, and fine-tuning the control settings adaptively.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for representing a word by extracting n-dimensions for the word from an original language model; if the word has been previously processed, use values previously chosen to define an (n+m) dimensional vector and otherwise randomly selecting m values to define the (n+m) dimensional vector; and applying the (n+m) dimensional vector to represent words that are not well-represented in the language model.
Abstract:
A basestation used in a wireless communications system is disclosed. The basestation includes a plurality of flow management schedulers, wherein the base station receives an indication of function selection from an entity, and wherein the base station chooses for the entity one of the plurality of flow management schedulers according to the indication of function selection. Other methods, apparatuses, and systems also are disclosed.
Abstract:
A method implemented in a network controller used in a mobile backhaul (MBH) network is disclosed. The method includes receiving one or more physical layer parameters from MBH transceivers in the MBH network, computing an admissible set of rate matrices, computing a capacity region based on the admissible set of rate matrices, deciding MBH transmission topology, and transmitting the decision to the MBH transceivers. Other apparatuses, systems, and methods also are disclosed.
Abstract:
A method for compiler-guided optimization of MapReduce type applications that includes applying transformations and optimizations to JAVA bytecode of an original application by an instrumenter which carries out static analysis to determine application properties depending on the optimization being performed and provides an output of optimized JAVA bytecode, and executing the application and analyzing generated trace and feeds information back into the instrumenter by a trace analyzer, the trace analyzer and instrumenter invoking each other iteratively and exchanging information through files.
Abstract:
A method for optical chirp-free optical polarization modulation includes dividing a data modulated optical signal into a first optical path and a second optical path, using a Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator in the first optical path for imparting a π phase difference between adjacent symbols of the data modulated optical signal in the first optical path, adjusting a delay and amplitude of symbols of the data modulated optical signal in the second path so that the symbols in the first path and the symbols in the second path are synchronized and have substantially equal power levels, and combining the first and second optical paths so that symbols from the first and second optical paths are in orthogonal polarizations.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for reusing macro cell resources in femto cell base stations or relay stations in a non-collaborative manner are disclosed. In addition, orthogonal resource allocation between a macro cell base station and femto cell base stations/relay stations may be dynamically adjusted by considering user-population variance. Moreover, an additional level of spatial reuse by femto cell base stations or relay stations can be provided by employing macro cell user location information.
