Adaptive calibration of sensors through cognitive learning

Systems and methods for training a neural network model are disclosed. In the method, training data is obtained by a deep neural network (DNN) first, the deep neural network comprising at least one hidden layer. Then features of the training data are obtained from a specified hidden layer of the at least one hidden layer, the specified hidden layer being connected respectively to a supervised classification network for classification tasks and an autoencoder based reconstruction network for reconstruction tasks. And at last the DNN, the supervised classification network and the reconstruction network are trained as a whole based on the obtained features, the training being guided by the classification tasks and the reconstruction tasks.

Feature extraction using multi-task learning

A method to train a machine learning model for in-vehicle air quality control in a knowledge-based system, executed by one or more computer processors, includes collecting data related to in-vehicle air quality from a plurality of probe cars where the data is collected by various on-board systems in each probe car. The method includes correlating the data related to in-vehicle air quality from each probe car with air quality measurements from each probe car, where the correlation is used to update the machine learning model. The method includes determining a situation when an in-vehicle air quality measurement of the air quality measurements is above a pre-determined in-vehicle air quality level and determining instructions for actions by one or more of the one or more on-board systems in each of the probe cars to maintain an in-vehicle air quality level at or below the pre-determined in-vehicle air quality level.

A method for object defect detection includes receiving digital data representing an image of an object with a repeated pattern. The method identifies a part of the image of the object as defined by a sample window of the digital data. The method generates one or more functions from at least the part of the image, wherein each of the one or more functions corresponds to one component of a pixel contained in the part of the image. Responsive to performing self-similarity analytics on the one or more functions, the method identifies a defect area of the object.
