ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 2 -- United States Patent no. 12,646,297, issued on June 2, was assigned to Smart Eye International Inc. (Boston).

"Neural network multi-attribute facial encoder and decoder" was invented by Ajjen Das Joshi (Arlington, Mass.), Sandipan Banerjee (Boston) and Panu James Turcot (Pacifica, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Machine learning is used for a neural network multi-attribute facial encoder and decoder. A facial image is obtained for processing on a neural network and is encoded into two or more orthogonal feature subspaces. The encoding is performed by a single, trained encoder. The encoder is a downsampling encoder, orthogonality of the feature subspaces is est...
