Title: A unified framework for multi-modal similarity search
Inventor: PRANAV VINEET AGGARWAL
IPC: G06F16/2457
Filed: 2021-02-03
Abstract: A similarity search is performed with respect to a query object and objects represented in a graph, where objects may be images, and involves identifying a modality for the similarity search. The similarity of one object to another may be evaluated based on visual similarity, conceptual similarity or any other modality. Generating an embedding (feature vectors) for the query object is based at least on the modality identified for the similarity search, and further based on new connections identified between the query object and a subset of existing nodes in the graph. The graph may be jointly modelled in at least two modalities (e.g. visual and conceptual) such that the resulting model may produce embeddings in accordance with multiple modalities. The embedding for the query object is supplied as a search input and results of similar objects represented in the graph are obtained.

Title: Intersection testing in a ray tracing system
Inventor: GREG CLARK
IPC: G06T15/06
Filed: 2021-03-23
Abstract: Methods and intersection testing modules are provided for determining, in a ray tracing system, whether a ray intersects a 3D axis-aligned box representing a volume defined by a front-facing plane and a back-facing plane for each dimension. The front-facing plane of the box which intersects the ray furthest along the ray is identified. It is determined whether the ray intersects the identified front-facing plane at a position that is no further along the ray than positions at which the ray intersects the back-facing planes in a subset of the dimensions, and this determination is used to determine whether the ray intersects the axis-aligned box. The subset of dimensions comprises the two dimensions for which the front-facing plane was not identified but does not comprise the dimension for which the front-facing plane was identified. It is determined whether the ray intersects the box without performing a test to determine whether the ray intersects the identified front-facing plane at a position that is no further along the ray than a position at which the ray intersects the back-facing plane in the dimension for which the front-facing plane was identified.
