  • Patent number: 11093799
    Abstract: In some implementations, an image classification system of an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle is capable of improving multi-object classification by reducing repeated incorrect classification of objects that are considered rarely occurring objects. The system can include a common instance classifier that is trained to identify and recognize general objects (e.g., commonly occurring objects and rarely occurring objects) as belonging to specified object categories, and a rare instance classifier that is trained to compute one or more rarity scores representing likelihoods that an input image is correctly classified by the common instance classifier. The output of the rare instance classifier can be used to adjust the classification output of the common instance classifier such that the likelihood of input images being incorrectly classified is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20210243503
    Abstract: Method starts with a processor causing an electronic program guide (EPG) to be displayed on a first client device that is associated with a first user. Processor detects a selection of a selectable item included in the EPG associated with a media content item by the first user. Processor identifies a second user that is connected to the first user on a communication platform. Processor retrieves a main user identification associated with the first user and a secondary user identification associated with the second user and generates a request for the media content item including media content identification, main user identification, and secondary user identification. Processor then receives a playlist associated with the media content item that comprises media content item segments including first avatar associated with first user and second avatar associated with second user.

  • Publication number: 20210243482
    Abstract: Method to generate frames on demand starts with a system receiving a request for a media content item from a client device. The request includes a media content identification and a main user identification. The system transmits to the client device a playlist including a first set of media content item segments. While the first set of media content item segments is being displayed on the client device, the system renders a second set of media content item segments using the media content identification and the main user identification. Rendering the second set of media content item segments can include rendering a main user avatar based on the main user identification and incorporating the main user avatar into the second set of media content item segments. The system then updates the playlist to include the second set of media content item segments. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.

  • Publication number: 20210131570
    Abstract: A fast blind plate switching device is provided, including a sealing structure, a clamping structure, a support structure and an execution mechanism. The blind plate has an open-state and a blind-state. The support structure is used for connecting pipelines at two sides and providing support for the whole device. The clamping structure and the sealing structure are located inside the support structure. The clamping structure is driven by the execution mechanism, and under the drive of the execution mechanism, the clamping structure presses on the blind plate to eliminate a gap between two sides of the blind plate, so that sealing is formed by means of the sealing structure. When a gap is formed away from the blind plate, the open/state and the blind state of the blind plate is switched.
