  • Patent number: 11831889
    Abstract: In a method of video encoding for an encoder, a determination is made to determine whether (i) an implicit transform scheme is enabled, and (ii) at least one of a low-frequency non-separable transform (LFNST) and a matrix-based intra predication mode (MIP) is invalid for a coding unit (CU). In response to the determination that the implicit transform scheme is enabled, and at least one of the LFNST and MIP is invalid, a primary transform type is determined based on a size of the CU. A primary transform is performed for a transform block that is partitioned from the CU in accordance with the determined primary transform type. A coded bitstream that indicates the primary transform type of the CU is subsequently output.

  • Patent number: 11827240
    Abstract: Systems and methods for autonomous vehicle motion planning are provided. Sensor data describing an environment of an autonomous vehicle and an initial travel path for the autonomous vehicle through the environment can be obtained. A number of trajectories for the autonomous vehicle are generated based on the sensor data and the initial travel path. The trajectories can be evaluated by generating a number of costs for each trajectory. The costs can include a safety cost and a total cost. Each cost is generated by a cost function created in accordance with a number of relational propositions defining desired relationships between the number of costs. A subset of trajectories can be determined from the trajectories based on the safety cost and an optimal trajectory can be determined from the subset of trajectories based on the total cost. The autonomous vehicle can control its motion in accordance with the optimal trajectory.

  • Patent number: 11830594
    Abstract: A method for generating a medical report includes receiving patient image data from a user in response to displaying a patient image to the user that is retrieved from a server. The user enters patient image data directly into an image time series template. The patient image data, in one embodiment, pertains to measurements of objects (both target and non-target) of the patient shown in the patient image. Patient image data is then extracted from the image time series template and data is calculated pertaining to an object (e.g., a lesion) in the image based on the extracted data and the location of the extracted data in the image time series template. The calculated results are presented for review by a user. In response to the user approving the results, a report of the results is generated.

A drogue deployment system for an LTA vehicle descent can include a drogue comprising a drogue parachute coupled to a carrier. A spring can be configured to launch the drogue from a launch tube directed outward from an apex of the LTA vehicle in an acute angle from a horizontal plane. A core can be placed around the launch tube and placed around the spring, the core compressing the spring and holding the spring in a compressed state prior to deployment, and a riser can couple the carrier to the envelope of the LTA vehicle. In some cases, the drogue deployment system can comprise two or more drogues, wherein intervals between the two or more drogues can be selected such that horizontal components of drogue deployment forces approximately cancel out.

  • Patent number: 11827382
    Abstract: A method of roll steering of a spacecraft to align an aspect of the spacecraft, such as the surface of solar arrays carried by the spacecraft, to the sun, is described. The roll steering occurs only when the sun is at an angle (?) relative to the orbital plane of the spacecraft and when the spacecraft is not eclipsed by a body it is orbiting. This dayside-only roll steering of the spacecraft increases the power efficiency of the spacecraft. A spacecraft may include a controller which causes an attitude control subsystem to steer the spacecraft about a roll axis to position the surface of the solar array such that an axis normal to the surface of the solar array is aligned with the direction to a sun when the sun is visible to the spacecraft, and maintain a fixed orientation of the spacecraft about the roll axis when the sun is not visible to the spacecraft.
