Appl. No.:

10/121845

Inventors:

Willem Johannes Kindt - Sunnyvale CA, US

Assignee:

National Semiconductor Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

H04N 1/40

US Classification:

358443, 358447, 358518, 348246, 382275

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for handling bad pixels in an image sensor array includes processing data values associated with the pixels of the image sensor. Processing the data values is performed by at least a first pass process and a subsequent pass process. In the first pass, the data values associated with the pixels are analyzed to determine whether any of the pixels are bad pixels. Information identifying the bad pixels is stored in a memory storage area of limited size. The stored information may also include an indicator, indicating a confidence level in categorizing the bad pixel. During the first pass, an overflow mark is stored in the memory storage area when insufficient memory storage is available for storing the information about a particular bad pixel. The overflow mark identifies the particular pixel in the image sensor array. During subsequent passes, processing may be redirected to the first pass to resume first pass processing of the data value associated with the particular pixel identified by the overflow mark.

Abstract:

AI-based orchestration. In an embodiment, a recommendation engine is applied to a data pipeline representing company accounts. Engagement metric(s) are calculated based on activity data associated with the company accounts, and predictive model(s) are applied to the activity data and/or firmographic data associated with the company accounts to generate predictive output. A tactic recommendation model is applied to orchestration features, comprising the engagement metric(s) and predictive output, to generate recommended tactic(s). In addition, a contact recommendation model is applied to contact data to generate recommended contact(s). The recommended tactic(s) are combined with the recommend contact(s) to generate an orchestration, comprising recommended action(s), to be executed.
