High Efficiency Video Coding (short: HEVC / H.265), also known as MPEG-H Part 2, is a video compression standard succeeding AVC (H.264). It offers 25-50% better compression or improved quality at the same bit rate. Supporting up to 8K resolution, HEVC employs diverse block sizes (4x4 to 32x32) with both integer DCT and DST. HEIF is based on HEVC. Concept. HEVC is made by working up from H.264/MPEG-4 AVC. Both look into video frames to find repeated things within and between them. Those parts are replaced with simple descriptions. HEVC does this better by comparing areas that are bigger, up to 64x64 pixels, making variable-block-size segmentation finer, allowing better "intra" prediction within frames, improving motion prediction and compensation, and adding sample-adaptive offset filtering. These good changes increase compression processing, but decompression is less affected. HEVC was standardized by the Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC), a group made up of ISO/IEC MPEG and ITU-T Study Group 16 VCEG. It is known as MPEG-H Part 2 by ISO/IEC and as H.265 by ITU-T. Its first version was set in January 2013 and published in June 2013. The second version, including multiview, range, and scalability extensions, was approved in 2014 and published in 2015. 3D and screen content coding extensions followed in 2015 and 2017 respectively, that works for graphics-rich content. In 2017, HEVC got a Primetime Emmy Engineering Award for its great thing done for television technology. History. HEVC was made by over a dozen global organizations working together. The main ones were Samsung Electronics (4,249 patents), General Electric (1,127 patents), M&amp;K Holdings (907 patents), NTT (878 patents), and JVC Kenwood (628 patents). Some patents are held by Fujitsu, Apple, Canon, Columbia University, KAIST, Kwangwoon University, MIT, Sungkyunkwan University, Funai, Hikvision, KBS, KT, and NEC.

Slavery still exists in the 21st century. It is usually called modern slavery or neo-slavery. The ways in which people are made slaves, or kept in slave-like conditions have changed. There no longer is a definition everyone agrees on. Estimates of the number of slaves today, range from around 38 million to 49.6 million, depending on the method used to form the estimate and the definition of slavery being used. Those in slavery are often difficult to identify, and difficult to count.  The International Labour Organization estimates that, by their definitions, over 40 million people are in some form of slavery today. 24.9 million people are in forced labor, of whom 16 million people are exploited in the private sector such as domestic work, construction or agriculture, 4.8 million people in forced sexual exploitation, and 4 million people in forced labour imposed by state authorities. An additional 15.4 million people are in forced marriages. Causes. Slavery has been officially abolished. Enslavement therefore no longer is about legal ownership. Modern slavery is about illegal control. In most cases, slaves are no longer bought or sold. Rather, "slavery" exists as a form of employment / labor. People become trapped in slavery-like conditions in various ways. Modern slavery is often seen as a by-product of poverty.Slavery is most common in poor countries, and those with vulnerable minorities. It also exists in developed countries. Tens of thousands of people work in slave-like conditions in industries such as mining, farming or in factories. There they produce goods for their home market, or for export into more prosperous countries.  In the older form of slavery, slave-owners spent more on buying or getting slaves. The cost of keeping the slave healthy was considered a better investment than getting another slave to replace them. In modern slavery people are easier to get at a lower price so replacing them when exploiters run into problems becomes easier. Slaves are then used in areas where they could easily be hidden while also creating a profit for the exploiter. Modern slavery can be quite profitable, and corrupt governments silently allow it, despite its being outlawed by international treaties such as Supplementary Convention on

A Markov model is when things are predicted from other things that came immediately before. For example, if it usually snows after it rains, you might guess that it will snow tomorrow if it is raining today. A Markov model is part of probability theory. Mostly, it tries to predict "states" from previous states. Some Markov models include the Markov chain and the Markov decision process. Markov chain. The Markov chain is a simple Markov model. It has "the Markov property," which means that future states of the variable are because of the previous states of the variable. Hidden Markov model. A hidden Markov model is a type of Markov chain. This is very similar to a basic Markov model, but when the state is only partially observable or noisily observable. In other words, past states are related to the state of the system, but they don't tell us enough to perfectly know the state we are trying to predict. This is used commonly. For example, it helps computers automatically turn speech audio into words. Markov decision process. A Markov decision process is a type of Markov chain. A Markov decision process goes from one state to another. It uses a vector to do this. Uses. Markov chains are used to predict the future. They can predict prices and wind power. References.
