Publication number: 20240121685Abstract: A method of reducing gray energy consumption and achieving optimal gray energy saving for carbon neutralization is proposed. In a cellular network, each cell or BS (group of cells) has renewable (green) and non-renewable (gray, on-grid power) energy sources. The renewable (green) energy is highly variable and unpredictable, while non-renewable (gray, on-grid power) is stable but is not renewable and thus has more carbon impact. Each cell or BS (group of cells) services is associated UEs when it is on. In one novel aspect, a cell or BS (group of cells) that consumes more non-renewable energy can give some or all of its served UEs to another cell or BS (group of cells) that consumes less non-renewable energy.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Chien-Sheng Yang, I-Kang Fu, YUAN-CHIEH LIN, Chia-Lin Lai, Yu-Hsin Lin, Yun-Hsuan Chang

Patent number: 11697435Abstract: This application is directed to predicting vehicle actions according to a hierarchy of interconnected vehicle actions. The hierarchy of interconnected vehicle actions includes a plurality of predefined vehicle actions that are organized to define a plurality of vehicle action sequences. A first vehicle obtains one or more images of a road and a second vehicle, and predicts a sequence of vehicle actions of the second vehicle through the hierarchy of interconnected vehicle actions using the one or more images. The first vehicle is controlled to drive at least partially autonomously based on the predicted sequence of vehicle actions of the second vehicle. In some embodiments, the hierarchy of interconnected vehicle actions includes a first action level that is defined according to a stage of a trip and corresponds to three predefined vehicle actions of: “start a trip,” “move in a trip,” and “complete a trip.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2022Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: PlusAI, Inc.Inventors: I-Hsuan Yang, Yu Wang

Patent number: 11657280Abstract: Embodiments provide reinforcement learning (RL) techniques for transferring machine learning obtained in one domain to another. A neural network (NN) of a source domain may be trained using training data associated with that domain. In some cases, the training data is inaccessible to a target domain for which a similar NN is desired. A number of target NNs may be initialized with a portion of the parameters transferred from the source NN. A computing agent may utilize RL techniques to train the target NNs using training data of the target domain. The target NN with the most beneficial subset of transferred parameters may be selected. By using the RL techniques to identify the most advantageous combination of transferred parameters, a similarly accurate NN may be provided in the target domain at a fraction of the otherwise needed time and without accessing the original training data.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: PlusAI, Inc.Inventors: Yue Guo, I-Hsuan Yang, Yu Wang

Patent number: 10817519Abstract: A user can issue a query about a process that has a number of stages. A stage of the process is determined using the query and location data associated with the query, and a stage prediction model. A stage learning system can select a sample of query logs for a category from a database of millions or billions of users' queries. Queries can be parsed into keywords. A category can be determined from location information associated with each query and from query keywords. Queries are aligned based on location and, optionally, keywords. TF-IDF values are computed for queries and are used to determine a difference significance between aligned, adjacent queries. If aligned, adjacent queries have a substantially difference in keywords and TF-IDF, then a conversion stage is identified. Content can be presented to the user based on the category, keywords, location, and conversion stage.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2016Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: BAIDU USA LLCInventors: Hsien-Ting Cheng, I-Hsuan Yang, Liangliang Zhang

Patent number: 10705536Abstract: Route segment information is received from a first autonomous vehicle over a network. The route segment information includes one or more route segments and estimated entrance times, each of the entrance times being associated with one of the route segments and representing a time the first autonomous vehicle enters the route segment. Whether the first autonomous vehicle is within a specific route segment is determined based on an entrance time associated with the specific route segment and a current location of the first autonomous vehicle. If the first autonomous vehicle is within the specific route segment, a request is sent to invite the first autonomous vehicle to join a vehicle group of one or more vehicles associated with the specific route segment. The vehicle group is one of a plurality of vehicle groups that were determined based on route segment information received from a plurality of autonomous vehicles.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2016Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: BAIDU USA LLCInventors: Jinghao Miao, Liyun Li, I-Hsuan Yang, Shiyuan Fang, Jingao Wang

Patent number: 10592960Abstract: The disclosure relates to determining thermal insulation levels of clothing a user should wear when traveling to a destination. To do this, a thermal insulation level of clothing worn by a user and levels worn by a crowd can be analyzed from images including the user or the crowd. A thermal sensitivity bias for the user can be determined by comparing those levels for similar locations. Environment data can then be collected for the destination. A thermal insulation level of clothing worn by the crowd for the destination can be predicted based on the environment data. This level can be adjusted with the bias for the user to generate a thermal insulation level of clothing to be worn by the user at the destination. An image having clothing with that level can be displayed to recommend a style of clothing for the user to wear at the destination.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2017Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: FUTUREWEI TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Yaya Chu, I-Hsuan Yang

Patent number: 10394245Abstract: Responsive to sensor data received from one or more sensors of an autonomous vehicle, one or more predicted trajectories are generated, with each of the predicted trajectories having an associated probability. One or more driving scenarios that trigger gesture recognition are identified. For each of the identified driving scenarios, one or more gestures from one or more vehicles are detected in accordance with a gesture detection protocol. One or more gestures from the autonomous vehicle are emitted for communication with the vehicles in accordance with a gesture emission protocol based on the detected gestures.
