摘要:
The present invention relates to a system, method, and computer program product for generating a single software code based on a description of a distributed architecture. The present invention introduces a BICA-SMART development framework that implements a distributed architecture in a flexible, parallel and scalable implementation that is embodied by a single software code. Thus, using the present invention, a user can input a description of the architecture into the system, with the system automatically generating the software code to implement the architectural description.

Described is a system for multiple-object recognition in visual images. The system is configured to receive an input test image comprising at least one object. Keypoints representing the object are extracted using a local feature algorithm. The keypoints from the input test image are matched with keypoints from at least one training image stored in a training database, resulting in a set of matching keypoints. A clustering algorithm is applied to the set of matching keypoints to detect inliers among the set of matching keypoints. The inliers and neighboring keypoints in a vicinity of the inliers are removed from the input test image. An object label and an object boundary for the object are generated, and the object in the input test image is identified and segmented. Also described is a method and computer program product for multiple-object recognition in visual images.

The present invention relates to a system for identifying regions of interest in visual imagery. The system is configured to receive a series of consecutive frames representing a scene as captured from N sensors. The frames include at least a current frame and a previous frame. A surprise map can be generated based on features found in the current frame and the previous frame. The surprise map having a plurality of values corresponding to spatial locations within the scene. Based on the values, a surprise in the scene can be identified if a value in the surprise map exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Described is a system for ordering images. The system receives a plurality of images. Image features are extracted from each image. A set of all possible image pairs are generated for all images. A similarity metric with weights is generated between the images in each image pair in the set, with a net similarity metric thereafter generated by combining the similarity metrics. The images are then ordered according to the net similarity metrics to generate a computer-ordered set of images. The computer-ordered set of images is then displayed to the user, which allows the user to re-order the images to generate a user-ordered set of images. The weights are then optimized to minimize the distance between the computer-ordered set of images and the user-ordered set of images. The similarity metrics are then re-weighted, with the images thereafter being re-ordered according to the new metrics.

A method and system of a sparse sampling planner uses a finite number of measurements to determine a track's expected intermediate kinematic and classification state for a specific sensor action. It uses the expected track state to compute a reward function. The expected states are further propagated for actions at the next time step to determine the next states and so on. The sampling becomes sparse and the reward function is discounted as one propagates further in time. This produces a state-action tree that is more top-heavy while providing greater accuracy at times closer to the decision point. By doing so, the planner creates a plan comprising a sequence of actions that result in the highest reward. By employing various heuristics to further prune the tree gives highly accurate results with significant savings in computational processor time.

An apparatus and method provides application specific multidimensional information to an application running on a user computing device from a plurality of member documents electronically extracted from a library of electronically searchable documents. An information extractor is adapted to extract occurrences of prospective representations of dimensions of application specific multidimensional information and occurrences of non-application specific multidimensional information from the member documents. Also, an encoder is adapted to encode the occurrences of prospective dimensions of application specific and non-application specific multidimensional information contained in member documents. A member document identifier determines document formatting and decides whether to proceed with further processing. An information verification unit optionally verifies the extraction of application specific multidimensional information from the member documents. A database optionally stores and provides access to the application specific multidimensional information, which may for example be scheduled events having dimensions of time, location, identity.

A system and method for automatic weapon allocation and scheduling of the present invention. The inventive method includes the steps of providing data with respect to threats, weapons, weapon allocation options; weapon allocation rules; and temporally dependent constraints with respect thereto; evaluating the data; and temporally allocating the weapons to the threats automatically in accordance with the evaluation. The invention computes the optimal pairing and the best time to deploy each weapon system against threat(s) it is paired with in arriving at the pairing. This results in an optimal assignment where weapon resource constraints are not exceeded and therefore guarantee availability of sufficient resources for engagement of every threat that is paired with a weapon system.

Described is a system for finding salient regions in imagery. The system improves upon the prior art by receiving an input image of a scene and dividing the image into a plurality of image sub-regions. Each sub-region is assigned a coordinate position within the image such that the sub-regions collectively form the input image. A plurality of local saliency maps are generated, where each local saliency map is based on a corresponding sub-region and a coordinate position representative of the corresponding sub-region. Finally, the plurality of local saliency maps is combined according to their coordinate positions to generate a single global saliency map of the input image of the scene.
