Abstract: Provided is a method for rendering an image. The method includes: acquiring a plurality of pieces of raw point cloud data by scanning an object with a scanning device, wherein any one piece of raw point cloud data is configured to describe a data acquisition point on the object; determining at least one piece of boundary line data based on the plurality of pieces of raw point cloud data, wherein any one piece of boundary line data is configured to describe a contour boundary on the object; and determining an object image based on the plurality of pieces of raw point cloud data and the at least one piece of boundary line data, and rendering the object image.

Abstract: A quantum computing system and method are disclosed. The system includes a modular architecture comprising a plurality of units, each unit having an input interface and an output interface and having a type selected from a set including a controller unit, a quantum processing unit and a classical processing unit. Each quantum processing unit is connectable to a quantum computing device and includes a data converter, the input interface being selectively connectable to other units of the modular architecture and configured to pass data received at the input interface to the data converter and pass the output of the data converter to the quantum computing device, the output interface being selectively connectable to other units of the modular architecture and configured to pass data received from the quantum computing device to the data converter and pass the output of the data converter to the output interface for communication to the units of the modular architecture connected to the output interface.

Abstract: The present application provides a low load operating system for a refrigeration system having a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. The low load operating system may include a hot gas bypass line extending from a discharge side of the compressor to a suction side of the compressor and a desuperheat line extending from upstream of the expansion valve to the suction side of the compressor.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method trains a first prediction network to predict similarity between images in videos. The training uses boundaries detected in the videos to train the prediction network to predict images in a same scene to have similar feature descriptors. The first prediction network generates feature descriptors that describe library images from videos in a video library offered to users of a video delivery service. A search image is received and the prediction network predicts one or more library images for one or more videos that are predicted to be similar to the received image. The one or more library images for the one or more videos are provided as a search result.
