    Abstract: A method for dynamically quantizing feature maps of a received image. The method includes convolving an image based on a predicted maximum value, a predicted minimum value, trained kernel weights and the image data. The input data is quantized based on the predicted minimum value and predicted maximum value. The output of the convolution is computed into an accumulator and re-quantized. The re-quantized value is output to an external memory. The predicted min value and the predicted max value are computed based on the previous max values and min values with a weighted average or a pre-determined formula. Initial min value and max value are computed based on known quantization methods and utilized for initializing the predicted min value and predicted max value in the quantization process.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods that provide an end-to-end approach for performing multi-dimensional object pose estimation in the context of machine learning models. In an implementation, processing circuitry of a suitable computer inputs image data to a machine learning model that predicts a parameterized rotation vector and a parameterized translation vector for an object in the image. Next, the processing circuitry converts the parameterized rotation vector and the parameterized translation vector into a non-parameterized rotation vector and a non-parameterized translation vector respectively. Finally, the processing circuitry updates the image data based on the non-parameterized rotation vector and the non-parameterized translation vector.

    Abstract: Disclosed examples include image processing methods and systems to process image data, including computing a plurality of scaled images according to input image data for a current image frame, computing feature vectors for locations of the individual scaled images, classifying the feature vectors to determine sets of detection windows, and grouping detection windows to identify objects in the current frame, where the grouping includes determining first clusters of the detection windows using non-maxima suppression grouping processing, determining positions and scores of second clusters using mean shift clustering according to the first clusters, and determining final clusters representing identified objects in the current image frame using non-maxima suppression grouping of the second clusters. Disclosed examples also include methods and systems to track identified objects from one frame to another using feature vectors and overlap of identified objects between frames to minimize computation intensive operations involving feature vectors.

    Abstract: An image processing system includes a processor and optical flow (OF) determination logic for quantifying relative motion of a feature present in a first frame of video and a second frame of video that provide at least one of temporally and spatially ordered images with respect to the two frames of video. The OF determination logic configures the processor to implement performing OF estimation between the first frame and second frame using a pyramidal block matching (PBM) method to generate an initial optical flow (OF) estimate at a base pyramid level having integer pixel resolution, and refining the initial OF estimate using at least one pass of a modified Lucas-Kanade (LK) method to provide a revised OF estimate having fractional pixel resolution.

    Abstract: A method of rate control in coding of a video sequence to generate a compressed bit stream is provided that includes computing a sequence base quantization step size for a sequence of pictures in the video sequence, computing a picture base quantization step size for a picture in the sequence of pictures based on the sequence base quantization step size, a type of the picture, and a level of the picture in a rate control hierarchy, and coding the picture using the picture base quantization step size to generate a portion of the compressed bit stream.
