Abstract: A network computer system receives request data from computing devices of requesting users in a sub-region of a service area. The system further receives location data from computing devices of drivers operating in the sub-region. Based on the request data and the location data, the system determines a service condition for the sub-region. Based on the service condition indicating that the sub-region is in a driver oversupply state, the system transmits a service instruction to computing devices of a plurality of drivers within the sub-region, the service instruction being associated with a target outside the sub-region and a set of progress conditions. The system then periodically determines, for each driver of the plurality of drivers, an estimated time of arrival (ETA) to the target from a current position of the driver to determine whether the driver is satisfying the set of progress conditions of the service instruction.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a tunable VMAF application reduces an amount of influence that image enhancement operations have on perceptual video quality estimates. In operation, the tunable VMAF application computes a first value for a first visual quality metric based on reconstructed video content and a first enhancement gain limit. The tunable VMAF application computes a second value for a second visual quality metric based on the reconstructed video content and a second enhancement gain limit. Subsequently, the tunable VMAF application generates a feature value vector based on the first value for the first visual quality metric and the second value for the second visual quality metric. The tunable VMAF application executes a VMAF model based on the feature value vector to generate a tuned VMAF score that accounts, at least in part, for at least one image enhancement operation used to generate the reconstructed video content.

The apparatus includes a similarity detector trained to detect paired patches between the first frame and the adjacent frame based on a comparison of the detected potential object patches.

Abstract: A non-invasive time domain reflection probe calibration method includes: using different volume ratio of ethanol and deionized water mixed solution to calculate a test target's medium weight coefficient and waveguide length of the non-invasive time domain reflection probes; using different concentrations of NaCl solutions to calibrate a waveguide geometric dimensioning of the non-invasive time domain reflection probes; preparing compacted soil samples with known different moisture contents and densities, and calibrating a correlation parameter of compacted soil samples' dielectric constant and conductivity with moisture content and density.
