Abstract: The invention provides a process for refining bio-based propylene glycol, wherein impurities having boiling points close to that of propylene glycol are separated. In this process, C5-C20 oleophilic alcohol compounds, C5-C20 alkanes and/or C4-C20 oleophilic ketone compounds are subjected to azeotropism as an azeotropic solvent together with the bio-based propylene glycol to obtain an azeotrope containing propylene glycol. Then the azeotropic solvent in the azeotrope is separated to obtain a crude propylene glycol which is further purified to obtain propylene glycol.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method calculates a reward function for an adaptive bitrate function that is based on a bandwidth and profiles in a profile ladder for a current segment of content. The reward function calculates a first profile should be selected for the current segment and, based on a previously selected profile from a prior segment and profiles in the profile ladder, changes the first profile to a second profile from the profile ladder. The method requests the second profile from the profile ladder for the current segment.

Abstract: Using a pre-trained and fixed Vision Transformer (ViT) model as an external semantic prior, a generator is trained given only a single structure/appearance image pair as input. Given two input images, a source structure image and a target appearance image, a new image is generated by the generator in which the structure of the source image is preserved, while the visual appearance of the target image is transferred in a semantically aware manner, so that objects in the structure image are “painted” with the visual appearance of semantically related objects in the appearance image. A self-supervised, pre-trained ViT model, such as a DINO-VIT model, is leveraged as an external semantic prior, allowing for training of the generator only on a single input image pair, without any additional information (e.g., segmentation/correspondences), and without adversarial training. The method may generate high quality results in high resolution (e.g., HD).

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method generates a first representation of a first relationship between bitrate and quality based on first features of a first portion of a video. The first representation is analyzed to determine a first list of potential bitrates for the first portion of video. The method analyzes potential bitrates and quality associated with the respective potential bitrates to refine the first list of potential bitrates to a second list of bitrates. The second list of bitrates includes a different list of bitrates than the first list of potential bitrates. The method outputs the second list of bitrates for encoding the first portion of video.
