Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a thumbnail segmentation that defines the locations on a video timeline where thumbnails are displayed. Candidate thumbnail locations are determined from boundaries of feature ranges of the video indicating when instances of detected features are present in the video. In some embodiments, candidate thumbnail separations are penalized for being separated by less than a minimum duration corresponding to a minimum pixel separation (e.g., the width of a thumbnail) between consecutive thumbnail locations on a video timeline. The thumbnail segmentation is computed by solving a shortest path problem through a graph that models different thumbnail locations and separations. As such, a video timeline is displayed with thumbnails at locations on the timeline defined by the thumbnail segmentation, with each thumbnail depicting a portion of the video associated with the thumbnail location.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a snap point segmentation that defines the locations of selection snap points for a selection of video segments. Candidate snap points are determined from boundaries of feature ranges of the video indicating when instances of detected features are present in the video. In some embodiments, candidate snap point separations are penalized for being separated by less than a minimum duration corresponding to a minimum pixel separation between consecutive snap points on a video timeline. The snap point segmentation is computed by solving a shortest path problem through a graph that models different snap point locations and separations. When a user clicks or taps on the video timeline and drags, a selection snaps to the snap points defined by the snap point segmentation. In some embodiments, the snap points are displayed during a drag operation and disappear when the drag operation is released.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to interactive tiles that represent video segments of a segmentation of a video. In some embodiments, each interactive tile represents a different video segment from a particular video segmentation (e.g., a default video segmentation). Each interactive tile includes a thumbnail (e.g., the first frame of the video segment represented by the tile), some transcript from the beginning of the video segment, a visualization of detected faces in the video segment, and one or more faceted timelines that visualize a category of detected features (e.g., a visualization of detected visual scenes, audio classifications, visual artifacts). In some embodiments, interacting with a particular interactive tile navigates to a corresponding portion of the video, adds a corresponding video segment to a selection, and/or scrubs through tile thumbnails.

Abstract: A structure model representing a physical object, a fluid model representing a fluid domain, and a set of particles representing a fluid-structure interaction (FSI) interface between the fluid model and the structure model are received in a computer system. Fluid behaviors of the fluid domain are simulated using the fluid model. Respective friction and pressure forces are calculated at the set of particles of the FSI interface. Each particle's friction and pressure forces are calculated from the simulated fluid behaviors and each particle's location in the fluid model. Structural behaviors of the physical object are simulated using the structure model in response to the friction and pressure forces at the set of particles on the FSI interface. The simulated structural behaviors update each particle's location. The updated location is used in the subsequent calculations of the friction and pressure forces.

Abstract: A connecting device of a retaining ring of a safety belt includes a main body, a bolt, and a locking member. The main body is used with the bolt to form an enclosure or not. The bolt passes through a bolt bore of the main body and has a first teeth portion and a stopper located in a first half part of the first teeth portion. The first teeth portion and the locking member are used to control the bolt to lock or to unlock. The locking member could move between a first position and a second position along an axial direction of the locking member and could rotate around a central axis of the locking member. When the bolt is at a closed position and the locking member is at the first position, a second teeth portion of the locking member is meshed with the first half part. When the bolt is at the closed position and the locking member is at the second position, the second teeth portion is meshed with the second half part.

Abstract: An intersection speed deciding method includes a dataset obtaining and calculating step and a speed adjusting step. At least one of the vehicles expected to pass through one of the points is defined as the approaching vehicle, and a first arrival time of the approaching vehicle is obtained. Whether a preceding vehicle is on the host route is judged. If yes, a second arrival time of the preceding vehicle is obtained. Whether the host vehicle is expected to wait for a red light is judged. If yes, a red light duration is obtained. A time difference exists between a best arrival time and a corresponding expected arrival time, and each time difference is minimized based on the first arrival time, the second arrival time and the red time duration. A speed of the host vehicle is adjusted or remained based on the expected arrival times.

When at least a part of the second insulating section is exposed via the restricting sleeve, the restricting sleeve is located at a warning position. An insulating gate and a manufacturing method thereof are also disclosed.
