U.S. government limits exports of artificial intelligence software
Additional details are present in the unpublished rule (document 2019-27649 [1][2]).-- cut --Geospatial imagery “software” “specially designed” for training a Deep Convolutional Neural Network to automate the analysis of geospatial imagery and point clouds, and having all of the following:1. Provides a graphical user interface that enables the user to identify objects (e.g., vehicles, houses, etc.) from within geospatial imagery and point clouds in order to extract positive and negative samples of an object of interest;2. Reduces pixel variation by performing scale, color, and rotational normalization on the positive samples;3. Trains a Deep Convolutional Neural Network to detect the object of interest from the positive and negative samples; and4. Identifies objects in geospatial imagery using the trained Deep Convolutional Neural Network by matching the rotational pattern from the positive samples with the rotational pattern of objects in the geospatial imagery.Technical Note: A point cloud is a collection of data points defined by a given coordinate system. A point cloud is also known as a digital surface model.-- cut --[1] https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/01/06/2019-27...[2] https://s3.amazonaws.com/public-inspection.federalregister.g...
