    Abstract: An apparatus for an artificial neural network includes a format converter, a sampling unit, and a learning unit. The format converter generates a first format image and a second format image based on an input image. The sampling unit samples the first format image using a first sampling scheme to generate a first feature map, and samples the second format image using a second sampling scheme different from the first sampling scheme to generate a second feature map. The learning unit operates the artificial neural network using the first feature map and the second feature map.

    Abstract: A streaming accelerator includes a first pool, a first switch bus, a second pool and a second switch bus. The first pool includes neural processing unit (NPU) bundles, and each of NPU bundles includes a plurality of NPUs. The first switch bus provides a first streaming data to a first selected NPU bundle and a second selected NPU bundle respectively. The second pool includes network interface card (NIC) bundles, and each of the NIC bundles includes an encoder and a NIC. The second switch bus provides a first intermediate streaming data and a second intermediate streaming data to a first selected NIC bundle and a second selected NIC bundle. The first selected NIC bundle encodes the first intermediate streaming data to generate a first encoded streaming data. The second selected NIC bundle encodes the second intermediate streaming data to generate a second encoded streaming data.

    Abstract: ADAS includes a processing circuit and a memory which stores instructions executable by the processing circuit. The processing circuit executes the instructions to cause the ADAS to receive, from a vehicle that is in motion, a video sequence, generate a position image including at least one object included in the stereo image, generate a second position information associated with the at least one object based on reflected signals received from the vehicle, determine regions each including at least a portion of the at least one object as candidate bounding boxes based on the stereo image and the position image, and selectively adjusting class scores of respective ones of the candidate bounding boxes associated with the at least one object based on whether a respective first position information of the respective ones of the candidate bounding boxes matches the second position information.
