METHOD FOR OBJECT DETECTION USING HIERARCHICAL DEEP LEARNING
A hierarchical deep-learning object detection framework provides a method for identifying objects of interest in high-resolution, high pixel count images, wherein the objects of interest comprise a relatively a small pixel count when compared to the overall image. The method uses first deep-learning model to analyze the high pixel count images, in whole or as a patchwork, at a lower resolution to identify objects, and a second deep-learning model to analyze the objects at a higher resolution to classify the objects.

This document describes a process of producing gel microparticles, which are consistent in size and morphology. Through the process of coacervation, large volumes of gel microparticle slurry can be produced by scaling up reactor vessel size. Particles can be repeatedly dehydrated and rehydrated in accordance to their environment, allowing for the storage of particles in a non-solvent such as ethanol. Gel slurries exhibit a Bingham plastic behavior in which the slurry behaves as a solid at shear stresses that are below a critical value. Upon reaching the critical shear stress, the slurry undergoes a rapid decrease in viscosity and behaves as a liquid. The rheological behavior of these slurries can be adjusted by changing the compaction processes such as centrifugation force to alter the yield-stress. The narrower distribution and reduced size of these particles allows for an increase in FRESH printing fidelity.
Systems and methods for generating new images for training a machine-learning model are disclosed. Image data is produced regarding an image captured by an image sensor.

An image from a database is selected based on its similarity to the altered image and a decoding of the first latent space. Style encodings of the first latent space are extracted to classify a style of the altered image data in a second latent space. New images are then generated utilizing a reconstructor model that combines the two latent spaces. These new images can be used to train an image-recognition model.

A high-density storage system for goods is described in which totes carrying the goods are storage in a storage structure and stored and retrieved by robotic carriers. The carriers move laterally and/or longitudinally along the exterior of the support structure and retrieve totes from the interior of the structure by manipulating rows of coupled totes. Totes at the ends of rows are quickly removed and stored in another row until the desired tote appears at the end of the row, at which point the carrier proceeds with the tote to the exit point of the storage system. Storing totes is also a quick action by pushing them into any row. As a tote is pushed into the row, it will automatically couple with a tote inside the row that it comes into contact with.
A high-density storage system for goods is described in which totes carrying the goods are stored in a storage structure and stored and retrieved via stationary or mobile conveyors running along opposite ends of each layer of the storage structure.

Disclosed herein is a novel method for modelling and simulating urban solar harvesting by modeling the components of solar radiation using a modelling framework with modules related to view factors, transmittance, beam and diffuse shadow modeling, heat transfer equilibrium, and a virtual environment that emulates urban infrastructure and receives weather and radiation data as inputs. Also disclosed herein are various approaches for modelling diffuse shadows, which are a component of the integrated modelling framework. The various modules are integrated and optimized to compose several versions of modeling and simulation tools, which can estimate the temperature, power, and energy output of dense groups of freely-defined dynamic solar harvesting surfaces in urban and other intricate scenarios characterized by high three-dimensionality.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DOMAIN-AGNOSTIC BIAS REDUCTION WITH SELECTED SAMPLING FOR FEW-SHOT LEARNING
Disclosed herein is a methodology for refining novel-class features in a few-shot learning scenario by fine-tuning the feature extractor by reducing both class-agnostic biases and class-specific biases.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SCENE RECTIFICATION VIA HOMOGRAPHY ESTIMATION
Disclosed herein is a system and method for performing pose-correction on images containing objects within a scene, or the entire scene, to compensate for off-centered camera views. The system and method generates a more frontal view of the object or scene by applying planar homography by identifying corner endpoints of the object or the scene and repositioning the corner endpoints to provide a more frontal view. The pose-corrected scene may then be input to an object detector to determine a location of a bounding box of an object-of-interest which would be more accurate than a bounding box from the original off-centered image.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PHOTOREALISTIC IMAGE SYNTHESIS USING UNSUPERVISED SEMANTIC FEATURE DISENTANGLEMENT
Disclosed herein is a method to disentangle linear-encoded facial semantics from facial images without external supervision. The method uses linear regression and sparse representation learning concepts to make the disentangled latent representations easily interpreted and manipulated. Generated facial images are decomposed into multiple semantic features and latent representations are extracted to capture interpretable facial semantics. The semantic features may be manipulated to synthesize photorealistic facial images by sampling along vectors representing the semantic features, thereby changing the associate semantics.

A MEMS/NEMS actuator based on a phase change material is described in which the volumetric change observed when the phase change material changes from a crystalline phase to an amorphous phase is used to effectuate motion in the device. The phase change material may be changed from crystalline phase to amorphous phase by heating with a heater or by passing current directly through the phase change material, and thereafter quenched quickly by dissipating heat into a substrate. The phase change material may be changed from the amorphous phase to a crystalline phase by heating at a lower temperature. An application of the actuator is described to fabricate a phase change nano relay in which the volumetric expansion of the actuator is used to push a contact across an airgap to bring it into contact with a source/drain.

System and Method for Deep Learning for Tracking Cortical Spreading Depression Using EEG
Disclosed herein is a system and method implementing an automated, generalizable model for tracking cortical spreading depressions using EEG. The model comprises convolutional neural networks and graph neural networks to leverage both the spatial and the temporal properties of CSDs in the detection. The trained model is generalizable to different head models such that it can be applied to new patients without re-training. Further, the model is scalable to different densities of EEG electrodes, even when trained on a specific electride density.
Disclosed herein an effective detach strategy which suppresses the flow of gradients from context sub-networks through the detection backbone path to obtain a more discriminative context by forcing the representation of context sub-network to be dissimilar from the detection network. A sub-network is defined to generate the context information from early layers of the detection backbone. Because instance and context focus on perceptually different parts of an image, the representations from either of them should also be discrepant. In addition, a stacked complementary loss is generated to and backpropagated to the detection network.
