Abstract: A system obtains scene context data characterizing the environment. The scene context data includes data that characterizes a trajectory of an agent in a vicinity of a vehicle up to a current time point. The system identifies a plurality of initial target locations, and generates, for each of a plurality of target locations that each corresponds to one of the initial target locations, a respective predicted likelihood score that represents a likelihood that the target location will be an intended final location for a future trajectory of the agent. For each target location in a first subset of the target locations, the system generates a predicted future trajectory for the agent given that the target location is the intended final location for the future trajectory. The system further selects, as likely future trajectories of the agent, one or more of the predicted future trajectories.

Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for predicting future trajectories for an agent in an environment. A system obtains scene context data characterizing the environment. The scene context data includes data that characterizes a trajectory of an agent in a vicinity of a vehicle in an. environment up to a current time point. The system identifies a plurality of initial target locations in the environment. The system further generates, for each of a plurality of target locations that each corresponds to one of the initial target locations, a respective predicted likelihood score that represents a likelihood that the target location will be an intended final location for a future trajectory of the agent starting from the current time point.

Abstract: The invention relates to the technical field of composites, in particular to a high-toughness and high-strength wood-plastic composite and a preparation method thereof. The wood-plastic composite is prepared from the following preparation raw materials in parts by mass: 30-50 parts of wood flour, 11-20 parts of high molecular weight polyethylene, 30-52 parts of polypropylene and 2-10 parts of an interface modifier. Polypropylene is used as a main component of a plastic matrix; high molecular weight polyethylene is used as a secondary component of the plastic matrix and has a toughening effect; wood flour is used as a filler to improve the strength of the wood-plastic composite; the interface modifier can improve the interface bonding between the wood flour and the plastic matrix, and all components have a synergistic effect, so that the obtained wood-plastic composite has high toughness and high strength.

Abstract: An image processing method, apparatus, and system are provided. The image processing method includes: obtaining an initial image; converting the initial image from one type to another based on an image feature of the initial image, to obtain a target image; and presenting the target image, or analyzing and processing the target image. The initial image can be processed based on the image feature of the initial image, to obtain another type of image.

Abstract: A media processing method includes determining, by the media server based on a first network model, a first object existing in a first video to implement automatic detection of an object. The first network model is based on a sample image that includes the first object determining, by the media server from a media set, first media that matches the first object, where the first object is associated with content of the first media, and covering, by the media server, a target region of the first video with the first media to generate an integrated video file.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for preventing marine biofouling by using the principle of harmonic vibration. The method includes coating a surface of a device to be disposed in water with an elastic material layer. The elastic material may vibrate harmonically under the influence of the water traveling wave, thereby forming a cosine wave form. Taking “a” as the wavelength of the harmonic vibration, “b” as the amplitude of the harmonic vibration and “L” as the body length of a mussel larva, an algae larva or a barnacle larva, where L/2 is larger than “a” or “b”, the larva will be easily stripped off under the effect of harmonic vibration. The frequency of the cosine wave ranges from 0.02 Hz to 0.1 Hz so that the larva has insufficient time to stay, thereby preventing the larva from attaching.

Abstract: A pipeline connection assembly includes a landing platform and rotary or swivel connection hub which may be attached to a pipeline branch, termination, or manifold. The landing platform is mounted so that it may be rotated about the connection hub. This permits the installation of a subsea connection on a near level platform and allows the pipeline to be laid subsea with greater roll angles than would be acceptable otherwise. Orientation of the landing porch horizontally removes the requirement to manufacture the connection jumper to compensate for the roll differences in the hubs. In the preferred construction, the elevation of the platform can be adjusted by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and locked into place once the adjustment is completed.
