A computer model is trained to classify regions of a space (e.g., a pixel of an image or a voxel of a point cloud) according to a multi-label classification. To improve the model's accuracy, the model's self-confidence is determined with respect to its own predictions of regions in a training space. The self-confidence is determined based on the class predictions, such as a difference between the highest-predicted class and a second-highest-predicted class. When these are similar, it may reflect areas for potential improvement by focusing training on these low-confidence areas. Additional training may be performed by including modified training data in subsequent training iterations that focuses on low-confidence areas. As another example, additional training may be performed using the self-confidence to modify a classification loss used to refine parameters of the model.

Applying self-confidence in multi-label classification to model training

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that decodes data via an instruction that indicates a number of rulebooks to be processed, an input feature size, an output feature size, and a plurality of feature map base addresses, rearranges spatially distributed voxel output feature maps in the decoded data based on weight planes, and performs a channel-wise multiply-accumulate (MAC) operation on the rearranged spatially distributed voxel output feature maps to obtain an output, wherein the channel-wise MAC operation is performed as partial accumulations by a plurality of processing elements.

Spatially sparse neural network accelerator for multi-dimension visual analytics

An example apparatus for selecting keypoints in image includes a keypoint detector to detect keypoints in a plurality of received images. The apparatus also includes a score calculator to calculate a keypoint score for each of the detected keypoints based on a descriptor score indicating descriptor invariance. The apparatus includes a keypoint selector to select keypoints based on the calculated keypoint scores. The apparatus also further includes a descriptor calculator to calculate descriptors for each of the selected keypoints. The apparatus also includes a descriptor matcher to match corresponding descriptors between images in the plurality of received images. The apparatus further also includes a feature tracker to track a feature in the plurality of images based on the matched descriptors.

Selecting keypoints in images using descriptor scores

An embodiment of an image processor device includes technology to fetch a feature point data set from outside a local memory, locally store three or more fetched feature point data sets in the local memory, compute orientation information for each fetched feature point data set, compute first descriptor information based on the computed orientation information and a first locally stored feature point data set in parallel with a fetch and local store of a second feature point data set in the local memory, and compute second descriptor information based on the computed orientation information and the second locally stored feature point data set in parallel with the compute of the first descriptor information. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
