Abstract

Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for efficiently applying a transform skip mode to a transform block. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a video decoding apparatus determines, based on transform skip information associated with a current block, the transform skip information being decoded from a bitstream, whether a subblock for which transform is skipped and one or more subblocks to which transform is applied are included in the current block. When determining that the current block includes the subblock for which the transform is skipped and the one or more subblocks to which the transform is applied are included in the current block, the video decoding apparatus decodes a first residual subblock using a decoding procedure not involving inverse transform for the subblock for which the transform is skipped, and decodes one or more second residual subblocks using a decoding procedure involving the inverse transform for the one or more subblocks to which the transform is applied. The video decoding apparatus adds the first residual subblock and the one or more second residual subblocks to a prediction block to reconstruct the current block.

Abstract

Methods and systems are described for optimizing water discharge in fuel cell vehicles. The system includes a fuel cell stack, a blower for purging water from the fuel cell stack and a controller. The controller detects that an ambient temperature satisfies a threshold temperature. The controller determines the fuel cell vehicle is approaching a stopping location. The controller calculates a water discharge time prediction necessary to purge excess water from the fuel cell stack while the fuel cell vehicle is operating in response to detecting that the ambient temperature satisfies the threshold temperature and the fuel cell vehicle is approaching the stopping location. The water discharge time prediction is calculated based on the blower operating while the fuel cell stack is in at least one of an idle state and a stopped state as the fuel cell vehicle approaches the stopping location.

Abstract

A fuel cell system power supply includes: a fuel cell stack configured to react hydrogen and oxygen in air with each other in order to generate electricity; a high-voltage converter configured to boost output power of the fuel cell stack; and a high-voltage junction unit configured to transmit the output power of the fuel cell stack to the high-voltage converter and to receive high-voltage power from the high-voltage converter. The high-voltage junction unit has a structure configured to simultaneously accommodate an output terminal of the fuel cell stack and an input terminal of the high-voltage converter. Consequently, the assembly structure of the high-voltage junction unit may be simplified, whereby productivity may be improved. In addition, maintainability may be improved, whereby it is possible to efficiently maintain a fuel cell vehicle.

Abstract

A method of playing a virtual after-burn sound in an electric vehicle is provided. The method includes acquiring driver tendency information generated based on information of music played in a mobile phone and collecting driving variable information for playing a virtual sound during operation of the electric vehicle. Additionally, characteristics of a virtual after-burn sound are determined based on the collected driving variable information. The characteristics of the virtual after-burn sound are corrected according to the acquired driver tendency information. An after-burn signal is generated for playing the virtual after-burn sound based on information about the corrected characteristics of the virtual after-burn sound and operation of sound equipment is adjusted according to the created after-burn signal such that a virtual after-burn sound discriminated according to the driver tendency is played and output from the sound equipment.
