MUMBAI, India, Aug. 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647090456 A) filed by Qualcomm Incorporated on July 24, 2026, for Defenses For Attacks Against Non-Max Suppression (nms) For Object Detection.
Inventors include Petit, Jonathan; Monteuuis, Jean-Philippe; Yogamani, Senthil Kumar; Chen, Cong; and Ravi Kumar, Varun.
The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.
Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for object detection. For example, a computing device can apply a transformation to an image of a scene to generate a transformed image. The computing device can determine a plurality of candidate bounding regions for the transformed image. Each candidate bounding region is associated with an object in the scene. The computing device can determine a subset of candidate bounding regions for the transformed image by removing, using a non-max suppression model, at least one candidate bounding region of the plurality of candidate bounding regions. The computing device can generate an output bounding box for the object based on the subset of candidate bounding regions. The computing device can output the output bounding box. In some cases, the computing device can use an output of an image processing operation on the image to reduce a number of the plurality of candidate bounding regions.
