Abstract

A parallel processing unit (PPU), operating in a traditional processing environment or in a virtualized processing environment, can be divided into partitions. Each partition is configured to operate similarly to how the entire PPU operates. A given partition includes a subset of the computational and memory resources associated with the entire PPU. Software that executes on a CPU partitions the PPU for an admin user. A guest user is assigned to a partition and can perform processing tasks within that partition in isolation from any other guest users assigned to any other partitions. Because the PPU can be divided into isolated partitions, multiple CPU processes can efficiently utilize PPU resources.

Abstract

As integrated circuit geometries have shrunk, lithography simulation has developed to ensure that the masks used to fabricate the circuits satisfy the chip yield and fabrication turnaround time targets. To manufacture an integrated circuit (chip), an initial layout for the integrated circuit design is processed to compute a wafer image (e.g., resist material “printed” on the wafer using photomasks). Lithography simulation processes the initial layout according to optical physics to compute an estimated wafer image without actually constructing the physical masks or consuming any wafer fabrication resources and may be used to confirm manufacturability of the design layout before it is fabricated. Performing lithography simulation using a dual-band neural network produces accurate results efficiently. Dual-band refers to a dual frequency band processing whereby the input layout (mask image) is separately processed by both a first and second branch to extract low-frequency (global) features and high-frequency (local) features, respectively.

Abstract

In one embodiment of the present invention, a convolution engine configures a parallel processing pipeline to perform multi-convolution operations. More specifically, the convolution engine configures the parallel processing pipeline to independently generate and process individual image tiles. In operation, for each image tile, the pipeline calculates source locations included in an input image batch based on one or more start addresses and one or more offsets. Subsequently, the pipeline copies data from the source locations to the image tile. The pipeline then performs matrix multiplication operations between the image tile and a filter tile to generate a contribution of the image tile to an output matrix. To optimize the amount of memory used, the pipeline creates each image tile in shared memory as needed. Further, to optimize the throughput of the matrix multiplication operations, the values of the offsets are precomputed by a convolution preprocessor.

Abstract

In various examples, activation criteria and/or braking profiles corresponding to automatic emergency braking (AEB) systems and/or collision mitigation warning (CMW) systems may be determined using sensor data representative of an environment to a front, side, and/or rear of a vehicle. For example, activation criteria for triggering an AEB system and/or CMW system may be adjusted by leveraging the availability of additional information with regards to the surrounding environment of a vehicle-such as the presence of a trailing vehicle. In addition, the braking profile for the AEB activation may be adjusted based on information about the presence of and/or location of vehicles to the front, rear, and/or side of the vehicle. By adjusting the activation criteria and/or braking profiles of an AEB system, the potential for collisions with dynamic objects in the environment is reduced and the overall safety of the vehicle and its passengers is increased.

Abstract

Approaches presented herein provide for efficient rendering of high quality, novel views of a scene, in this case achieved through a combination of volumetric particle representations and ray tracing. An object can be represented using a set of volumetric particles (e.g., 3D distributions) that are aligned to the underlying structure or geometry of the object. Volumetric particles can be encapsulated in a bounding mesh or proxy geometry that can be used to efficiently compute ray-particle intersections. For a view to be rendered, ray tracing can be performed to determine an intersection of the rays with the proxy geometry. When a hit is determined, the precise intersection location with the volumetric particle is computed and the value of the distribution returned for that ray. If a ray passes through multiple semi-transparent volumetric particles then the color value is determined based upon the values returned from those particles.

Abstract

A neural network may be used to determine corner points of a skewed polygon (e.g., as displacement values to anchor box corner points) that accurately delineate a region in an image that defines a parking space. Further, the neural network may output confidence values predicting likelihoods that corner points of an anchor box correspond to an entrance to the parking spot. The confidence values may be used to select a subset of the corner points of the anchor box and/or skewed polygon in order to define the entrance to the parking spot. A minimum aggregate distance between corner points of a skewed polygon predicted using the CNN(s) and ground truth corner points of a parking spot may be used simplify a determination as to whether an anchor box should be used as a positive sample for training.

Abstract

Triplanes are data representations used in computer graphics to encode scenes into compact feature representations that balance expressiveness with efficiency. Despite their efficiency, triplanes still suffer from large data bandwidth size, precluding use in streaming or dynamic settings. Methods which aim to compress triplanes, however, must be trained alongside the model and as a result are not generalizable among different scenes. The present disclosure provides a generalizable solution for triplane compression that can be applied to various triplanes without scene-specific training or finetuning.

Abstract

A text-to-image machine learning model takes a user input text and generates an image matching the given description. As an extension to this concept, text-to-3D content models can take a user input text to generate a 3D content. However, existing text-to-3D content models require different views to be individually generated and optimized in order to form the content in 3D, which is costly in terms of computation and time, and are typically limited to the generation of 3D objects as opposed to large 3D scenes. The present description enables the creation of 3D scenes in a less costly manner by using a feed-forward neural network that can generate a 3D representation of a scene from a plurality of labeled voxels that describe the scene in 3D.

Abstract

Frame buffer compression schemes used for image compression are oftentimes lossless so that the image can be decompressed as close as possible back to its original state. However, lossless compression schemes require that any image data that cannot be successfully compressed (i.e. without losing significant data) be kept in a non-compressed state for transmission and storage. As a result, lossless compression can reduce bandwidth requirements but not memory requirements. The more recently introduced lossy frame buffer compression schemes do allow for some data loss and therefore can save both bandwidth and memory, however, lossy frame buffer compression schemes are limited particularly in the amount by which image data can practically be reduced. The present disclosure provides lossy frame buffer compression which involves an additional compression step, thereby allowing image data to be compressed to a lower rate. This lossy frame buffer compression can reduce both bandwidth and memory usage.

Abstract

In various examples, systems and methods are disclosed that detect hazards on a roadway by identifying discontinuities between pixels on a depth map. For example, two synchronized stereo cameras mounted on an ego-machine may generate images that may be used extract depth or disparity information. Because a hazard's height may cause an occlusion of the driving surface behind the hazard from a perspective of a camera(s), a discontinuity in disparity values may indicate the presence of a hazard. For example, the system may analyze pairs of pixels on the depth map and, when the system determines that a disparity between a pair of pixels satisfies a disparity threshold, the system may identify the pixel nearest the ego-machine as a hazard pixel.

Abstract

Approaches presented herein provide for the selection of tracks of data to be used to generate, or update, a digital representation or reconstruction of a physical environment. Tracks of data may be obtained that correspond to roads or other features of a region, but there may be more tracks of data obtained for certain features than is needed, and few tracks obtained for other features. A selection process can cluster track segments into buckets, and attempt to select tracks so that the number of tracks for each bucket is above a minimum track threshold and below a maximum track threshold. An interactive selection process can be used, where selection of a track causes that track to be selected for all associated buckets that have not yet reached the maximum track threshold. Once at least a minimum number of tracks have been selected for each bucket, the tracks can be registered and provided for generation of the digital representation.

Initially, SLAM may be used to initialize the camera motion and a pose estimation model may be used to estimate the local human motion. Combining the two, embodiments of the present disclosure initialize the global human motion. Then, during optimization and using a COIN system that includes the controlled motion denoiser and/or using a COIN algorithm, embodiments of the present disclosure enforce the global human and camera motion to satisfy a two-dimensional (2D) projection on videos and the motion distribution from the motion diffusion model.

Abstract

One critical objective of robotic learning is building a universal agent capable of performing a vast number of tasks across a diverse set of environments. Currently, an agent policy for performing a task can be learned from video depicting performance of the task. However, because the learning is susceptible to focusing on areas of the video that do not depict the actual performance of the task, errors can be introduced into the policy. The present disclosure provides video diffusion for a specified task with a focus on an active region in which the task is being performed, such that an agent policy then trained on the video will correctly learn the actions needed to be taken to perform the task.

Abstract

Approaches presented herein provide for the determination of realistic lighting parameters for a scene represented in an image. Realistic lighting parameters can allow for the insertion of one or more virtual objects into a scene image, where the lighting or shading applied to the virtual object(s) can be consistent with those for other objects in the scene. A machine learning model such as a discriminator or diffusion model can be used to analyze a composed image generated by a differential renderer, for example, in which at least one virtual object has been inserted into a scene image and had lighting effects applied in accordance with a set of lighting parameters. A loss value can be determined based on the results of this machine learning model, which can be used to optimize the lighting parameters and/or adjust the weights or parameters of a model used to generate the lighting parameters. Once fine-tuned or optimized, the lighting parameters can represent an accurate light map for the scene or environment that can be used to generate composed images.

Abstract

In various examples, ground truth data for training machine learning models may be improved using other sources of information, such as outputs from neural networks and/or other vision-based algorithms. For instance, sensor data that is to be used as a ground truth for training/validating a machine learning model may be obtained using one or more sensors. However, instead of automatically using the sensor data as a presumed accurate version of the ground truth, the sensor data may be evaluated for inaccuracies and, in some instances, updated to reduce one or more of the inaccuracies. For example, a neural network, a vision-based algorithm, and/or another learned process may be used to generate validation data for comparing with the sensor data, identifying the inaccuracies, and/or refining the sensor data to generate a more accurate version of the ground truth.

Abstract

In various examples, learning monotonic alignment for language models in AI systems and applications is described herein. Systems and methods are disclosed that train one or more language models—such as LLMs or VLMs—using one or more techniques that improve the ability of the language model(s) to align inputs (e.g., text tokens) with outputs (e.g., speech tokens). For instance, to learn a stricter alignment and improve robustness of the language model(s), the training may encourage monotonic cross-attention scores using one or more attention priors and/or using one or more connectionist temporal classification (CTC) losses when updating the language model(s). For instance, the attention prior(s) may initialize the cross-attention scores to a monotonic heuristic while the CTC loss(es) may ensure the learned alignment attends over one or more text tokens (e.g., all text tokens) sequentially.

Abstract

In various examples, sizes of images that are to be applied to machine learning models may be evaluated with respect to thresholds that correspond to input resolutions of the models. In some examples, if the size of an image is smaller than a threshold corresponding to a certain model's input resolution, the image may be incorporated into a frame that has the same resolution as that model's input resolution. For instance, the image may be copied into the frame at the image's original size, and the rest of the frame may include padding around the image to maintain the frame's resolution at the input resolution. This frame, which may include both the image and the padding, may then be applied to the model. In this way, the image may still be applied to the model at the model's input resolution without scaling and potentially distorting the image.

Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for using path replay backpropagation to efficiently compute a radio map. In an embodiment, an electric field of a propagating wave and its interaction with the environment is represented using the Stokes-Müller formalism. Instead of storing information needed for conventional backpropagation during the forward pass, in an embodiment, only the loss, loss gradients, and optionally information needed to retrace the paths that contribute to the loss are stored because replay backpropagation propagates gradients in a second forward pass. The loss gradients from the first forward pass are used during the second forward pass when paths are replayed to accumulate the loss gradients with additional gradients resulting from interactions with scattering surfaces.
