Patent number: 11400958Abstract: Provided are methods for learning to identify safety-critical scenarios for autonomous vehicles. First state information representing a first state of a driving scenario is received. The information includes a state of a vehicle and a state of an agent in the vehicle's environment. The first state information is processed with a neural network to determine at least one action to be performed by the agent, including a perception degradation action causing misperception of the agent by a perception system of the vehicle. Second state information representing a second state of the driving scenario is received after performance of the at least one action. A reward for the action is determined. First and second distances between the vehicle and the agent are determined and compared to determine the reward for the at least one action. At least one weight of the neural network is adjusted based on the reward.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2021Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: Motional AD LLCInventors: James Guo Ming Fu, Scott D.

Publication number: 20190094117Abstract: A slide cover plate for slide specimen processing and an application method thereof. The slide cover plate includes a capillary plane, a depth locating surface, a width locating block, a bottom locating block, a reservoir side surface, a reservoir opening surface and a guiding opening. There's a capillary gap at the middle of a slide assembly formed by fitting the slide cover plate with the slide. During loading, a reagent fills the gap via the capillary siphoning effect, and no matter in which way the slide assembly is placed (placed upright or inclined), the reagent in the gap will not be drained off. When a new reagent is added, the new reagent enters the gap from a reagent loading reservoir, the former reagent existing in the gap flows out from the guiding opening at the bottom of the slide assembly and is replaced by the new reagent automatically. It doesn't require steps of removing and draining the former reagent of the previous step before adding the new reagent.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2017Publication date: March 28, 2019Applicant: XIAMEN TALENT BIOMEDICAL TECHNOLOGY COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: James GUO, Derek GUO
