Abstract: The present disclosure describes techniques for efficient coding of motion vectors developed for multi-hypothesis coding applications. According to these techniques, when coding hypotheses are developed, each having a motion vector identifying a source of prediction for a current pixel block, a motion vector for a first one of the coding hypotheses may be predicted from the motion vector of a second coding hypothesis. The first motion vector may be represented by coding a motion vector residual, which represents a difference between the developed motion vector for the first coding hypothesis and the predicted motion vector for the first coding hypothesis, and outputting the coded residual to a channel. In another embodiment, a motion vector residual may be generated for a motion vector of a first coding hypothesis, and the first motion vector and the motion vector residual may be used to predict a second motion vector and a predicted motion vector residual.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a video interaction method and apparatus, and a device and a medium. The video interaction method comprises: presenting a video list in a video presentation page; when a first operation on the video list is detected, playing, on the video presentation page and by means of a floating window, a video corresponding to the first operation; and when a second operation on the floating window is detected, jumping, from the video presentation page, to display a target video detail page, wherein the target video detail page is a video detail page corresponding to the target video, which is played in the floating window.

Abstract: Improved lossless entropy coding techniques for coding of image data include selecting a context for entropy coding based on an ordered scan path of possible context locations. A symbol for a current location within a source image may be entropy coded based on a context of prior encoded symbols of other locations within source images, where the context is selected based on an ordered scan path enumerating a series of potential context locations within one or more source images. To select a context, a predetermined number of prior symbols may be selected by qualifying or disqualifying locations in the scan path, and then the current symbol may be encoded with a context based on prior symbols corresponding to the first qualifying context locations in the order of the scan path.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a ceramic material for a thermal barrier coating and a manufacturing method thereof. A chemical composition of the ceramic material is LaYbZrCeO7. The ceramic material is manufactured by doping LaO1.5, YbO1.5 and CeO2 into ZrO2. A mole ratio of LaO1.5, YbO1.5, CeO2 and ZrO2 is 1:1:1:1. The manufactured ceramic material is in a composite phase structure mainly including a pyrochlore phase and a fluorite phase. The ceramic material according to the present disclosure can effectively inhibit corrosion penetration of molten CMAS in a high temperature environment, which reduces or avoids ceramic cracking and peeling. This better maintains microstructural integrity of the ceramic surface, thereby extending service life of ceramics.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for improved video coding with virtual reference frames. A motion vector for prediction of a pixel block from a reference may be constrained based on the reference. In as aspect, if the reference is a temporally interpolated virtual reference frame with corresponding time close to the time of the current pixel block, the motion vector for prediction may be constrained magnitude and/or precision. In another aspect, a bitstream syntax for encoding the constrained motion vector may also be constrained. In this manner, the techniques proposed herein contribute to improved coding efficiencies.

Abstract: A method for integrally forming a graphene film (GF) of a high specific surface area (SSA) by ultrafast ultraviolet (UV) laser processing, includes: selecting a carbon precursor material, where the carbon precursor material is one selected from the group consisting of a biomass/hydrogel composite and a heavy hydrocarbon compound; adding an activator solution to an inside of the carbon precursor material to obtain a composite with an activator uniformly loaded, and spreading the composite on a flexible substrate to form a carbon precursor material layer; heating and drying the carbon precursor material layer; in-situ processing with an ultrafast UV laser to obtain an activated GF of a high SSA; and cleaning and drying the activated GF. With the method of the present disclosure, a microporous activated GF of a high SSA can be directly processed in-situ on a flexible substrate.
