3D Adaptive Structural Convolution Network for Domain-Invariant Point Cloud Recognition

3D Adaptive Structural Convolution Network for Domain-Invariant Point Cloud Recognition

arXiv:2407.04833v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Adapting deep learning networks for point cloud data recognition in self-driving vehicles faces challenges due to the variability in datasets and sensor technologies, emphasizing the need for adaptive techniques to maintain accuracy across different conditions. In this paper, we introduce the 3D Adaptive Structural Convolution Network (3D-ASCN), a cutting-edge framework for 3D point cloud recognition. It combines 3D convolution kernels, a structural tree structure, and adaptive neighborhood sampling for effective geometric feature extraction. This method obtains domain-invariant features and demonstrates robust, adaptable performance on a variety of point cloud datasets, ensuring compatibility across diverse sensor…

Windows 11 version 21H2 and 22H2 will reach end of support in October – gHacks Tech News

Windows 11 version 21H2 and 22H2 will reach end of support in October – gHacks Tech News

Microsoft has announced that it will stop servicing Windows 11 version 21H2 and 22H2 later this year. Here's what it means for users. Microsoft released Windows 11 on October 5, 2021, about 6 years after Windows 10 was launched. The first version of Windows 11 had the version number 21H2, and it reached its end of support in October 2023 for regular users. However, some editions of Windows 11 21H2 continue to be supported by the company. This is what's changing in Q3. Windows 11 received 2 major updates over the years, aka feature updates. The first of these was…

Global Funding And M&A Picked Up In Q2, While AI Funding Mushroomed

Global Funding And M&A Picked Up In Q2, While AI Funding Mushroomed

Global startup funding picked up in the second quarter, reaching $79 billion — rising 16% quarter over quarter and 12% from the $71 billion invested in Q2 2023. Mega-rounds — fundings $100 million and above — accounted for much of the increase this past quarter. Funding to companies in AI more than doubled quarter over quarter to $24 billion — representing 30% of all dollars invested, the largest quarter for AI funding in recent years. And there are signs that larger M&A deals increased in Q2, providing much-needed liquidity to venture capital markets. Crunchbase data shows we are eight to…

Early Prime Day deals bring the third-gen AirPods back down to $140

Early Prime Day deals bring the third-gen AirPods back down to $140

Amazon Prime Day is on the horizon but there's plenty of sales you can already explore. One of the best early Prime Day deals currently running is a 17 percent discount on Apple's third-generation AirPods. The earbuds are back down to their record-low price of $140, from $169. However, this deal doesn't include AppleCare+ — you'll have to pay another $29 for that.AppleApple's third-gen AirPods came out in 2021 as a massive improvement to their predecessor. We gave them an 88 in our review thanks to features like a more comfortable design and way better audio quality. A lot of…

Open-TeleVision: Why human intelligence could be the key to next-gen robotic automation 

We want to hear from you! Take our quick AI survey and share your insights on the current state of AI, how you’re implementing it, and what you expect to see in the future. Learn More Last week, researchers at MIT and UCSD unveiled a new immersive remote control experience for robots. This innovative system, dubbed “Open-TeleVision,” enables operators to actively perceive the robot’s surroundings while mirroring their hand and arm movements. As the researchers describe it, the system “creates an immersive experience as if the operator’s mind is transmitted to a robot embodiment.” In recent years, AI has dominated…

RPN: Reconciled Polynomial Network Towards Unifying PGMs, Kernel SVMs, MLP and KAN

[Submitted on 5 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled RPN: Reconciled Polynomial Network Towards Unifying PGMs, Kernel SVMs, MLP and KAN, by Jiawei Zhang View PDF Abstract:In this paper, we will introduce a novel deep model named Reconciled Polynomial Network (RPN) for deep function learning. RPN has a very general architecture and can be used to build models with various complexities, capacities, and levels of completeness, which all contribute to the correctness of these models. As indicated in the subtitle, RPN can also serve as the backbone to unify different base models into one canonical representation. This…

Beware, Elon Musk — BYD just took its next step to world domination

Beware, Elon Musk — BYD just took its next step to world domination

According to a statement shared on X by Turkey's minister of industry and technology, Mehmet Fatih, the factory is slated to begin production by the end of 2026 and will have capacity to produce around 150,000 vehicles a year.Business Insider contacted BYD for comment but didn't immediately hear back. It's BYD's second planned factory in Europe and could provide the company with a route around the punishing tariffs the European Union imposed on Chinese EV firms last month.Turkey is part of the EU's Customs Union, and any BYD cars manufactured there could avoid the 17.4% additional tariff the EU slapped…
