  • Publication number: 20190265055
    Abstract: A network system dynamically determines a route, including start and end points, for vehicles in a transportation network. The transportation network receives a service request from a user of the transportation network including an origin location for the trip and a destination location for the trip. The transportation network then generates a waypoint plan for one or more vehicles, which includes the requested origin and destination in addition to any previously requested origins and destinations included in the vehicles current route. The network system then determines a directionality for each of the waypoints in the waypoint plan and retrieves candidate start and end points that have an associated directionality within a threshold angle of the directionality of each waypoint and are proximate to the waypoint. The network system evaluates each combination of retrieved candidate points to select a route for the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20190246135
    Abstract: Techniques for encoding video with reduced frame-boundary artifacts are presented. The techniques include a video encoding method, where, when skip mode is selected as a motion prediction coding mode for a pixel block predicted from a reference block of a reference frame, estimating an amount of the reference block that extends beyond the edge of the reference frame. If the amount beyond the edge does not exceed a threshold, the prediction may be coded with skip mode. If the amount beyond the edge exceeds a threshold, the pixel block may be partitioned, and the partitioned blocks may be coded with motion prediction.

  • Publication number: 20190238865
    Abstract: Coding a transform block using level maps is disclosed. A method includes determining a lower plane of values, processing the lower plane in a backward scan order, and selecting a template for entropy-coding the values of the lower plane. The method also includes, for a current value of the lower plane, selecting, based on the template anti-diagonal lines, two or more line buffers, each of the two or more line buffers corresponding to a respective scan-order anti-diagonal line, determining a context using the two or more line buffers, and entropy encoding the current value using the context. Each value is a respective “up-to” value of a transform coefficient. The backward scan order visits the values of the lower plane along scan-order anti-diagonal lines. The template indicates scan positions of coded values of the lower plane, the scan positions are arranged, in the template, along template anti-diagonal lines.

  • Patent number: 10330398
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a first header pipe, a second header pipe, a third header pipe, a fourth header pipe and a plurality of flat tubes, the first header pipe is provided with a first space and a second space and a communicating passage for communicating the first space with the second space; when refrigerant flows from the first space of the first header pipe to the second header pipe along the flat tubes, a part of the refrigerant passes through the communicating passage and directly enters into the second space of the first header pipe, thus an overall flow resistance of the heat exchanger may be decreased to some extent. Besides, the flow quantity of the refrigerant in the third flow path is constant, however fluid state parameters may change, which may greatly improve the heat exchange capacity of the third flow path, thereby improving the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger on the whole.
