Patent number: 11375194Abstract: Systems and method for video compression using conditional entropy coding. An ordered sequence of image frames can be transformed to produce an entropy coding for each image frame. Each of the entropy codings provide a compressed form of image information based on a prior image frame and a current image frame (the current image frame occurring after the prior image frame). In this manner, the compression model can capture temporal relationships between image frames or encoded representations of the image frames using a conditional entropy encoder trained to approximate the joint entropy between frames in the image frame sequence.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2020Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: UATC, LLCInventors: Jerry Junkai Liu, Shenlong Wang, Wei-Chiu Ma, Raquel Urtasun

Publication number: 20220052474Abstract: The technology relates to a cage configured to removably receive a module. The cage may include a frame comprising a plurality of panels joined to one another, a lever pivotably coupled to the frame, and a heatsink pivotably coupled to the lever. The panels together may extend around a longitudinal recess configured to receive the module therein. The longitudinal recess may define a longitudinal axis thereof. A first one of the panels may have an aperture defined therein in communication with the longitudinal recess. A first end of the lever may extend into the longitudinal recess. The heatsink may be pivotably coupled to a second end of the lever opposite the first end. The heatsink may be movable in a translation direction transverse to the longitudinal axis. The heatsink may be translatable between a first position outside of the longitudinal recess and a second position partially inside the longitudinal recess.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2020Publication date: February 17, 2022Inventors: Jerry Chiu, Melanie Beauchemin

Patent number: 11197397Abstract: Systems and methods for data center liquid cooling apparatus provisioning are described. In some aspects, such systems and methods may provision one or more data center liquid cooling apparatus, e.g., prior to such apparatus being put into service to a data center to cool data center devices, such as server trays (and more specifically, heat-generating devices such as processors, memories, voltage regulators, and other devices mounted on motherboards of the server trays). In some aspects, such liquid cooling apparatus include cold plates or evaporators that are mounted in thermal communication with the heat generating devices (in the server trays) and utilize a flow of a cooling liquid (e.g., water, glycol, refrigerant) to remove heat from the server tray (e.g., with or without a phase change of the cooling liquid).Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2020Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Jerry Chiu, Skyler Salman, Madhusudan Krishnan Iyengar
