  • Patent number: 12131226
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for implementing a unitary quantum gate on one or more qubits. In one aspect, a method includes the actions designing a control pulse for the unitary quantum gate, comprising: defining a universal quantum control cost function, wherein the control cost function comprises a qubit leakage penalty term representing i) coherent qubit leakage, and ii) incoherent qubit leakage across all frequency components during a time dependent Hamiltonian evolution that realizes the unitary quantum gate; adjusting parameters of the time dependent Hamiltonian evolution to vary a control cost according to the control cost function such that leakage errors are reduced; generating the control pulse using the adjusted parameters; and applying the control pulse to the one or more qubits to implement the unitary quantum gate.

  • Patent number: 12132921
    Abstract: An encoder configured to encode a video bitstream for decoding by a compliant decoder configured to receive the bitstream, the encoded bitstream including a reference picture and a current picture including a coded current block, the bitstream also including an index useful for determining a scaling factor. The decoder determines that a mode when a reference picture and a current picture have different resolutions is enabled. Utilizing the mode, the decoder reconstructs the coded current block encoded by the encoder by determining a scaling factor using information in the bitstream including the index, determining a scaled prediction block by scaling a block of the reference picture using the scaling factor and by applying a pixel interpolation filter determined specifically for the prediction block and combining the scaled prediction block with a residual.

  • Patent number: 12129770
    Abstract: A stator vane includes an airfoil having an airfoil shape. The airfoil shape has a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in one of TABLE I and TABLE II. The Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z are non-dimensional values from 0% to 100% convertible to dimensional distances expressed in a unit of distance by multiplying the Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z by a scaling factor of the airfoil in the unit of distance. The X and Y values, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each Z value. The airfoil profile sections at Z values being joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.
