An optical add-drop multiplexer (ADM) avoids waveguide crossings by being constructed in the form of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer having a demultiplexer/multiplexer (demux/mux) pair in each of its arms. Each demux/mux pair is interconnected by coherent connecting paths having heating elements for increasing the path length of selected connecting paths. Waveguide optical couplers having asymmetric transfer functions are used at the input and output of the ADM. These couplers cooperate with the activated heating elements to add and/or delete a selected optical channel to/from an optical transmission path. Each coherent connecting path includes a number of waveguides. The end-to-end transmission characteristic of the ADM through each individual waveguide has a Gaussian shape. These Gaussian shapes are designed intersect at their -3 dB wavelengths so that the end-to-end transmission characteristic of the ADM is flat.

The present invention relates to a tracking method and a tracking device adopting multiple observation models with different life spans. The tracking method is suitable for tracking an object in a low frame rate video or with abrupt motion, and uses three observation models with different life spans to track and detect a specific subject in frame images of a video sequence. An observation model I performs online learning with one frame image prior to the current image, an observation model II performs online learning with five frames prior to the current image, and an observation model III is offline trained. The three observation models are combined by a cascade particle filter so that the specific subject in the low frame rate video or the object with abrupt motion can be tracked quickly and accurately.

Systems and methods for improving visual object recognition by analyzing query images are disclosed. In one example, a visual object recognition module may determine query images matching objects of a training corpus utilized by the module. Matched query images may be added to the training corpus as training images of a matched object to expand the recognition of the object by the module. In another example, relevant candidate image corpora from a pool of image data may be automatically selected by matching the candidate image corpora against user query images. Selected image corpora may be added to a training corpus to improve recognition coverage. In yet another example, objects unknown to a visual object recognition module may be discovered by clustering query images. Clusters of similar query images may be annotated and added into a training corpus to improve recognition coverage.

Systems and methods for modeling the occurrence of common image components (e. g. , sub-regions) in order to improve visual object recognition are disclosed. In one example, a query image may be matched to a training image of an object. A matched region within the training image to which the query image matches may be determined and a determination may be made whether the matched region is located within an annotated image component of the training image. When the matched region matches only to the image component, an annotation associated with the component may be identified. In another example, sub-regions within a plurality of training image corpora may be annotated as common image components including associated information (e. g. , metadata). Matching sub-regions appearing in many training images of objects may be down-weighted in the matching process to reduce possible false matches to query images including common image components.

A gas vortex device for an internal combustion engine includes at least a guider body installed in a predetermined position of a flowing passage provided between an inlet chamber of a cylinder body and an exhaling end of an air inputting arrangement of the internal combustion engine. The guider body which has an inlet end and an outlet end installed in such a manner that the outlet end should be more proximate to the inlet chamber of the cylinder body than the inlet end. The guider body further has an axial portion and at least two guiding wings extending symmetrically, outwardly and radially from the axial portion. Therefore, a gas mixture including the air and the atomized fuel that are sucked into the flowing passage from the air inputting arrangement are forced to flow through the guider body, inhaling through the inlet end and exhaling from the outlet end thereof before sucking into the inlet chamber of the cylinder body, so that the gas flow is guided by the guiding wings to spin and speed up such whirling motion. Therefore the gas mixture sucking into the inlet chamber of the cylinder body is spinning continuously in vortex form, so as to further atomize the atomized fuel particles to more diminutive tiny particles and more evenly and completely mix the air and atomized fuel particles.

One embodiment provides a computer-implemented method that includes acquiring, via at least one microphone, sound pressure data at one or more discrete frequencies obtained from a frequency response of a loudspeaker in a room. The sound pressure data is input into an artificial intelligence (AI) model that analyses and processes information, and that incorporates a relationship between the frequency response and at least one of an energy average (EA) in a listening area or a total sound power (TSP) produced by the loudspeaker. The AI model automatically estimates, without user interaction, the at least one of the EA in the listening area or the TSP produced by the loudspeaker.
