The rise of autonomous systems, particularly autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), is revolutionizing industries, impacting labor demand and trade deficits. Labor Shortages and Growing Demand From a macro perspective, deploying advanced technology solutions has significant market impact. As we analyze labor and demand, it becomes evident that while the demand for labor is steadily increasing year…

The market for machine learning algorithms for autonomous driving is still relatively young and, as a result, remains highly fragmented. With so many companies and organizations developing their own unique solutions and technologies, one must go to one company for data collection, another for management, and others for model development, MLOps, and even deployment. It…

The OODA loop, or Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act loop, is a decision-making framework that was developed by military strategist and United States Air Force Colonel John Boyd. The OODA loop is based on the idea that in any situation, the side that can cycle through the loop faster and more effectively will have a…

ADAS enabled vehicles are most commonly driven on highways and main roads for a number of reasons. One reason is that these types of roads tend to have less complex driving scenarios compared to residential areas or side roads. Highways and main roads often have fewer intersections and more predictable traffic patterns, which can make…

Federated learning is a machine learning technique that enables the training of models on decentralized data, without the need for the data to be centralized in one location. Instead, data is distributed across a number of different devices or edge devices, such as smartphones or IoT devices, and the model is trained by aggregating updates…

WebGPU is a new technology that allows developers to take advantage of the power of the GPU (graphics processing unit) in modern browsers. It allows for faster and more efficient processing of complex tasks, including machine learning algorithms. One of the key benefits of WebGPU is its ability to support federated learning. Federated learning is…

Data backhauling refers to the process of transferring data from one location to another, typically from a remote or geographically dispersed location to a central location or “backhaul.” This process is often used in industries such as transportation, where data from vehicles or other mobile assets is collected and sent back to a central location…

CVAT (Computer Vision Annotation Tool) is an open-source annotation tool for computer vision tasks that allows users to label and manage large datasets quickly and efficiently. Integrating CVAT with an MLFlow framework can streamline the data labeling process and make it easier to track and analyze the performance of your machine learning models. Here is…

Removing dimensions or making invariant features is a technique used to reduce the search space in a problem by eliminating certain variables or making them irrelevant. This can be especially useful in LiDAR slam, which has a 6Dof search space (x, y, z, roll, pitch, yaw). By reducing the dimensions, the number of permutations in…

Data balancing is the process of ensuring that a machine learning dataset is representative of the real-world population from which it is drawn. This is important because if a dataset is biased, then the machine learning model that is trained on that dataset will also be biased. Bias in machine learning models can lead to…

True positive rates, or the proportion of positive cases that are correctly identified, are an important consideration in many areas. One way to boost true positive rates is to utilize independent combinatorics, a set of techniques that involve combining multiple independent pieces of information or evidence to make a decision. Here are some specific techniques…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has come a long way in recent years, with many industries adopting it to improve efficiency and productivity. However, there is always room for improvement, and one area where AI can be further enhanced is in terms of accuracy. Currently, many AI systems have an accuracy rate of around 99.9%, which is…

Loose coupling and tight coupling refer to the degree of interdependence between different components in a system. In software development, loose coupling refers to the design of components that can operate independently of one another and do not rely heavily on the internal details of other components. Tight coupling, on the other hand, refers to…

Message queues are a software component that allow different parts of a system, or different systems, to communicate with each other by passing messages. They are often used in architectures that are distributed, meaning that they consist of multiple independent systems that need to communicate with each other. One common use case for message queues…

Brute forcing is a method of searching through a search space by testing every possible solution. This method can be useful for validating search algorithms, as it provides a means of comparing the results of the search algorithm to the true solution. One way to validate search algorithms using brute forcing is to quantify the…

Wheel odometry is a method used to measure the distance traveled by a vehicle by tracking the rotations of its wheels. This can be done through various methods such as using encoders, sensors, or by measuring the speed of the wheels using an OBD (on-board diagnostics) sensor. One of the main applications of wheel odometry…
