  • Patent number: 11403939
    Abstract: A traffic condition prediction system and a traffic condition prediction method are disclosed. The method includes: determining a center of circle in a surveillance image of a target traffic scene; determining a first circle based on the center of circle and a first radius; extracting a plurality of first feature points along the circumference of the first circle according to a first preset sampling frequency; generating a scene feature of the target traffic scene at least based on the first feature points; determining whether the scene feature and a scene feature of another traffic scene are similar; and when determining that they are similar, predicting traffic condition of the target traffic scene through a prediction model used for predicting traffic condition of the other traffic scene. The scene feature of the target traffic scene and that of the other traffic scene are generated in a same way.

  • Patent number: 11270150
    Abstract: A computing device divides a training image into a plurality of training blocks, and the training image includes a training object. The computing device calculates, for each of the training blocks, a correct confidence score of the training object covering the training block according to an image-marking data and a confidence-score-translating function, and the image-marking data includes a piece of location information of the training object in the training image. Then, the computing device trains a deep-learning model with the training image, the correct confidence scores and the image-marking data to generate the object-detecting model.

  • Publication number: 20140094023
    Abstract: A fabricating method of a semiconductor chip includes the following steps. Firstly, a substrate is provided, wherein an amorphous semiconductor layer is formed in a first surface of the substrate. Then, a first metal layer is formed on the amorphous semiconductor layer. Then, a thermal-treating process is performed to result in a chemical reaction between the first metal layer and a part of the amorphous semiconductor layer, thereby producing an amorphous metal semiconductor compound layer. Afterwards, a microwave annealing process is performed to recrystallize the amorphous metal semiconductor compound layer as a polycrystalline metal semiconductor compound layer.
