Dynamic Learning Driving System and Method

A system, method, and computer program product are described for dynamically assessing and improving driver performance, including that of an autonomous driving system. Based on received electronic driver performance messages, the system determines whether an instant feedback message is required to dynamically adjust driving behavior of a subject driver or autonomous driving system. If yes, then the system provides an instant feedback message, otherwise the system provides an aggregate feedback message, calibration message, and / or coaching recommendation as appropriate. An aggregate feedback message may be provided based at least on integral rating and / or driver performance score calculated and based at least on the driver performance messages received over a predetermined time period. The system may be adapted to perform one or more of the following: calculate insurance premium, insurance coverage, calculate cost of hiring a vehicle, monitor driving quality of drivers, recruit drivers, provide incentives, provide coaching, provide driver performance reports, and inform a third party about the driving performance of a subject driver.

An audio spatial environment engine for flexible and scalable up-mixing from an M channel audio system to an N channel audio system, where M and N are integers and N is greater than M, is provided. The input M channel audio is provided to an analysis filter bank which converts the time domain signals into frequency domain signals. Relevant inter-channel spatial cues are extracted from the frequency domain signals on a sub-band basis and are used as parameters to generate adaptive N channel filters which control the spatial placement of a frequency band element in the up-mixed sound field. The N channel filters are smoothed across both time and frequency to limit filter variability which could cause annoying fluctuation effects. The smoothed N channel filters are then applied to adaptive combinations of the frequency domain input signals and are provided to a synthesis filter bank which generates the N channel time domain output signals.

High-speed optical transceiver for infiniband and ethernet

The present invention provides a high-speed 100G optical transceiver for InfiniBand and Ethernet with associated mapping to frame InfiniBand and Ethernet into GFP-T. The optical transceiver utilizes an architecture which relies on standards-compliant (i.e., multi-sourced) physical client interfaces. These client interfaces are back-ended with flexible, programmable Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) modules to accomplish either InfiniBand or Ethernet protocol control, processing, re-framing, and the like. Next, signals are encoded with Forward Error Correction (FEC) and can include additional Optical Transport Unit (OTU) compliant framing structures. The resulting data is processed appropriately for the subsequent optical re-transmission, such as, for example, with differential encoding, Gray encoding, I / Q Quadrature encoding, and the like. The data is sent to an optical transmitter block and modulated onto an optical carrier. Also, the same process proceeds in reverse on the receive side.

Image processing apparatus, data processing method, and storage medium

The present invention provides an image processing system which can make switch-over between a copy-permitted state and a copy-prohibited state automatically according to the type of production while securely protecting the production. For the purpose, the system causes a detecting portion to detect the presence of predetermined information (i.e., production information) in image data, when that image data is sent from a user side terminal to be output from an output device. If the results of this detection indicate its presence, the system prohibits outputting of that image data from the output device. With this, the system releases an output-prohibited state of the above-mentioned image data based on the results of comparison between a password sent from the user side terminal and a password present in that image data.

The dialog system includes a reinput acceptable state storage unit that stores a state prior to transition and a reinput recognition candidates set storage unit that stores a recognition candidates set assigned to the state prior to the transition. At the time of a user's input, both of the recognition candidates set associated with that state and the recognition candidates set stored in the reinput recognition candidates set storage unit are referred to so as to determine a recognition candidate. In the case where the determined recognition candidate is a recognition candidate described in the recognition candidates set stored in the reinput recognition candidates set storage unit, the state stored in the reinput acceptable state storage unit is determined as the state to be changed.

Provided is an onboard electronic control unit. A CPU regularly performs a memory check and, if a determination has been made that there is an error in the memory content, writes the number of times an error has been determined to an error count storage unit, and resets itself. Immediately after the CPU has been reset and before the first memory check is performed, an error determination unit determines whether or not the error count stored in the error count storage unit is at least an error determination threshold. If the error count is at least the error determination threshold, an error response unit causes the CPU to execute a specific error response program, out of the programs in the memory.

A first image data, which is obtained by way of photographing essentially the same subject as that of a main image intended by a user without firing a strobe light for preliminary illumination, and a second image data, which is obtained by way of photographing the same while firing the strobe light for preliminary illumination, are captured. Subsequently, a typical value of each of blocks constituting the first and second image data and the type of a light source of the same are acquired as block information. The thus-acquired pieces of block information about the first and second image data are compared with each other, to thus acquire the tendency of a color change in subject before and after preliminary illumination. An environment light source is estimated on the basis of the obtained tendency of a color change.

Queued sessions for communicating correlated messages over a network

Systems and methods in accordance with the present invention allow for messages to be delivered from one application to another over a network in discrete groupings or communication sessions. For example, a sending computer system sends a group of related messages to a queue at a recipient computer system. The recipient computer system identifies that the messages of the group are related, and initiates a session-oriented communication channel. The recipient computer passes the group of messages to an appropriate application, and opens a different, new session-oriented communication channel for a new group of messages that are not necessarily related to the first group of messages. In one implementation, an order identifier in each of the received messages instructs the recipient computer system on what order, if any, the messages in a group are to be processed by the specific application.
