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…

Browsers use caching to temporarily store resources locally on the device, such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files, images, and videos. This allows the browser to quickly access the resources without having to make additional requests to the server. One way browsers can enable device-side caching is through the use of local storage. Local storage…

Fusing time synchronized RGB camera images with point cloud data is a powerful approach for training a PackNet-SFM (Structure from Motion) model in PyTorch. This technique combines the benefits of both RGB images and point cloud data to improve the accuracy and robustness of the SFM model. In this article, we will discuss the various…

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 tool developed by Intel that allows users to label and annotate images and video data for training machine learning models. MLFlow is an open source platform for managing the end-to-end machine learning lifecycle. It provides tools for tracking experiment runs, organizing code, and reproducing runs, among…

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…

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…

ROS (Robot Operating System) is a popular open-source robotics framework that provides libraries and tools for building robot applications. There are currently two versions of ROS: ROS 1 and ROS 2. In this article, we will explore the tradeoffs and advantages of both versions and discuss the tools available for converting between them. We will…

Autoencoders are neural network architectures that are used to learn a compact representation of input data, called the encoding, and then reconstruct the input data from this encoding. Autoencoders can be used to process point cloud data, which is a set of points in space that represent the surface of an object, as well as…
