Abstract: A computer-implemented method of predicting an external actor trajectory comprises receiving, at a computer, sensor inputs for detecting and tracking an external actor; applying object tracking to the sensor inputs, in order track the external actor, and thereby determine an observed trace of the external actor over a time interval; determining a set of available goals for the external actor; for each of the available goals, determining an expected trajectory model; and comparing the observed trace of the external actor with the expected trajectory model for each of the available goals, to determine a likelihood of that goal.

Abstract: One aspect herein provides a method of analysing driving behaviour in a data processing computer system, the method comprising: receiving at the data processing computer system driving behaviour data to be analysed, wherein the driving behaviour data records vehicle movements within a monitored driving area; analysing the driving behaviour data to determine a normal driving behaviour model for the monitored driving area; using object tracking to determine driving trajectories of vehicles driving in the monitored driving area; comparing the driving trajectories with the normal driving behaviour model to identify at least one abnormal driving trajectory; and extracting a portion of the driving behaviour data corresponding to a time interval associated with the abnormal driving trajectory.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for configuration and storage of hierarchical data. One method comprises providing a user interface to configure different variants, wherein a configuration of a given variant comprises a specification of signals associated with the given variant, wherein a given signal comprises one or more rules; obtaining one or more representations of user interactions with the user interface to configure the given variant; initiating an update of at least one database table comprising one or more records associated with the given variant based on the one or more representations of the user interactions, wherein the at least one database table stores rule values specified for the one or more signals associated with the given variant as attributes of the given variant; and initiating an automated action using the at least one database table. A given variant may be, for example, a content-related variant or a product-related variant.

Abstract: An intravenous catheter securement device includes a holder for placement on a bodily appendage near an intravenous insertion site on the bodily appendage, a strap for securing the holder to the bodily appendage, and at least one securement feature formed on the holder and configured to secure at least a portion of an intravenous catheter. The holder is shaped to surround at least a portion of the bodily appendage. The at least one securement feature is a slot formed on the holder. The holder includes a tray having an interior cavity and a tearable lid covering the interior cavity.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle (AV) planning method comprises: receiving sensor inputs pertaining to an AV; processing the AV sensor inputs to determine an encountered driving scenario; in an AV planner, executing a tree search algorithm to determine a sequence of AV manoeuvres corresponding to a path through a constructed game tree; and generating AV control signals for executing the determined sequence of AV manoeuvres; wherein the game tree has a plurality of nodes representing anticipated states of the encountered driving scenario, and the anticipated driving scenario state of each child node is determined by updating the driving scenario state of its parent node based on (i) a candidate AV manoeuvre and (ii) an anticipated behaviour of at least one external agent in the encountered driving scenario.

Abstract: Abstract: A driving scenario is extracted from real-world driving data captured within a road layout. A simulation is run based on the extracted driving scenario, in which an ego agent and a simulated non-ego agent each exhibit closed-loop behaviour. The closed-loop behaviour of the ego agent is determined by autonomous decisions taken in an AV stack under testing in response to simulated inputs, reactive to the simulated agent. The closed-loop behaviour of the non-ego agent is determined by implementing an inferred goal or behaviour, reactive to the ego agent. The goal or behaviour is inferred from an observed trace of a real-world agent extracted from the real-world driving data.
