Abstract: Systems and methods for coordinating point of interest pickups in a transportation service are provided. In example embodiments, the system detects a location of a device of a user. Responsive to detecting the location of the device of the user, the system automatically determines one or more potential pickup points based on the detected location. A pickup point user interface (UI) that displays one or more potential pickup points based on the detected location is presented on the device of the user without displaying a map. The system receives confirmation of a pickup point from the one or more potential pickup points and receives an indication of a destination. The system then establishes the transportation service based on the confirmed pickup point and the destination. The system can provide user interfaces that display progress of a driver to the pickup point and progress to the destination without displaying a map.

Abstract: Method and devices for training a keypoint estimation network are described. In each training iteration, synthetic images are generated by a generator, each synthetic image being assigned respective assigned keypoints by the generator. Using a prior-iteration of the keypoint estimation network, a set of predicted keypoints is obtained for each synthetic image. Based on an error score between the predicted keypoints and the assigned keypoints, poor quality synthetic images are discarded. The remaining synthetic images, together with real world images, are used to train an updated keypoint estimation network. The performance of the updated keypoint estimation network is validated, and the training iterations are performed until a convergence criteria is satisfied.

Abstract: Sets of asynchronous replication operations may be tracked to ensure consistency. A tracking service may receive notifications of pending asynchronous replication tasks, and responsive to receiving a manifest indicating a request to be notified upon completion of a set of pending replication asynchronous tasks, matches individual ones of the tasks within the set to tasks indicated as pending. The tracking service may then select a routing table based on a most recent sequence number associated with the set of tasks, determine one of more tracking nodes assigned to track the set of tasks, and send the manifest to each of the tracking nodes. As individual ones of the tasks complete, notifications of completion may be sent to the tracking nodes and an aggregator node aggregates the completion notifications for the set. Once all completion notifications are received, a response to the request indicating completion may be sent.
