Abstract: A video image processing method includes dividing a coding unit into one or more sub-block, constructing first and second motion vector candidate lists, and performing prediction for the coding unit according to the first and second motion vector candidate lists. The first motion vector candidate list includes a motion vector of a sub-block of the coding unit, and the second motion vector candidate list includes a motion vector of the coding unit. Constructing the first motion vector candidate list includes determining a reference motion vector of the coding unit, determining a related reference block of the sub-block of the coding unit in a co-located reference image of the coding unit according to the reference motion vector, determining a scaling factor of the motion vector of the related reference block, adding the scaled motion vector into the first motion vector candidate list.

Abstract: A method is described for seismic inversion including receiving a processed seismic image and an enhanced seismic image representative of a subsurface volume of interest; forward modeling the processed seismic image and the enhanced seismic image to generate a first modeled dataset and a second modeled dataset; differencing the first modeled dataset and the second modeled dataset to create a residual dataset; filtering the first modeled dataset to generate an approximation of illumination; preconditioning the residual dataset with the approximation of illumination to generate an adjoint source; back projecting the adjoint source to determine a model update; and applying the model update to an earth model of the subsurface volume of interest.

Abstract: Presented here is a system and method for creating easy-to-understand notifications of the vehicle state. The notification can be visual or can be auditory and can indicate to the user the vehicle state even when the user's attention is directed elsewhere. The indication can serve to attract the user's attention before more involved information is presented to the user, such as text, or the indication can serve to communicate to the user the vehicle state in an easy-to-understand way such as using color-coded displays or audio indications. The intensity of the indication can be adjusted based on the likelihood that indication will be perceived by the user by, for example, measuring ambient light and/or ambient noise. Reducing the intensity of the indication conserves energy of an energy source associated with the vehicle.

Abstract: A video processing method includes performing or skipping following processing based on whether a size of a coding unit is not smaller or is smaller than 8×8. The processing includes dividing the coding unit into sub-blocks each having a fixed size of 8×8, scanning a left neighboring block and determining a reference motion vector of the coding unit, determining a related reference block of a sub-block in the co-located reference image according to the reference motion vector, determining a scaling factor of a motion vector of the related reference block, scaling the motion vector of the related reference block using the scaling factor, determining motion information of the sub-block according to the scaled motion vector, and performing prediction for the coding unit according to the motion information.

Abstract: A system for multi-chassis interconnection and a method for chassis connection are disclosed. The system includes at least three chassis; each chassis includes a first switch fabric unit (SFU) and a second SFU; the first SFU in the first chassis is connected to the first SFU in other chassis; and the second SFU in the second chassis is connected to the second SFU in other chassis. In the embodiments of the present invention, different SFUs in the chassis of the multi-chassis interconnection system are connected to different main chassis, thus overcoming the technical defect in the prior art that other chassis in the multi-chassis interconnection system are unable to exchange data when the main chassis is faulty. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present invention, other chassis in the multi-chassis interconnection system can still exchange data normally when the main chassis is faulty.
