US Patent Issued to Bayerische Motoren Werke on July 28 for "Active learning for object classification in visual perception tasks in a vehicle" (German Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 28 -- United States Patent no. 12,694,685, issued on July 28, was assigned to Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (Munich).

"Active learning for object classification in visual perception tasks in a vehicle" was invented by Leonard Schenk (Munich) and Sebastian Schmidt (Munich).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A machine learning algorithm trained to classify objects in automotive sensor data is provided with automotive sensor data as an input. Based on this input, the machine learning algorithm determines an object class. Then, a latent space vector corresponding to activation values within a latent space of the machine learning algorithm is obtained and at least one latent space v...
