  • Publication number: 20230156124
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured to provide processing that automatically analyzes acoustic signals from attendees of a live presentation and automatically triggers corresponding reaction indications from results of analysis thereof. Exemplary reaction indications provide feedback for live presentations that can be presented in real-time (or near real-time) without requiring a user to manually take action to provide any feedback. As a non-limiting example, reaction indications may be presented in a form that is easy to visualize and understand such as emojis or icons. Another example of a reaction indication is a graphical user interface (GUI) notification that provides a predictive indication of user intent derived from analysis of acoustic signals.

  • Publication number: 20230144966
    Abstract: A method for video-based interaction method includes: when a target video is played back to a target time, determining whether a resource corresponding to a mask in the target video is successfully loaded, the resource comprising an interactive display image having a correlation with a target display element; if the resource is successfully loaded, assigning the interactive display image as a display image of an interactive control, displaying a mask comprising the interactive control on a current playback interface; and when a trigger operation with respect to the interactive control is received, skipping from the current playback interface to a target page, thus implementing the displaying of the target page. For the present solution, because the interactive control is related to a display element in a video image frame, a user can be immersively brought from the video playback interface to browsing the target page, thus ensuring user experience.

  • Publication number: 20230066050
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations that execute image classification training for domain-specific traffic, where training operations are entirely compliant with data privacy regulations and policies. Image classification model training, as described herein, is configured to classify meaningful image categories in domain-specific scenarios where there is unknown data traffic and strict data compliance requirements that result in privacy-limited image data sets. Iterative image classification training satisfies data compliance requirements through a combination of online image classification training and offline image classification training. This results in tuned image recognition classifiers that have improved accuracy and efficiency over general image recognition classifiers when working with domain-specific data traffic. One or more image recognition classifiers are independently trained and tuned to detect an image class for image classification.

  • Publication number: 20230057818
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel, a liquid crystal alignment method and a mobile terminal are provided. In a liquid crystal alignment process, an electrode layer receives an alignment voltage, and a pretilt angle of a liquid crystal molecule arranged corresponding to a branch electrode is less than a pretilt angle of a liquid crystal molecule arranged corresponding to a slit. Because an overall pretilt angle of liquid crystal molecules in a liquid crystal layer is increased and pretilt angles in a same domain of a subpixel are differentiated, a response time and viewing angle features of medium and low grayscale of the liquid crystal display panel can be improved.

  • Patent number: 11577220
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a cellulose nanocrystal-supported sodium alginate adsorbent and use thereof in enriching organic phosphorus in wastewater, belonging to the technical field of environmental engineering. Cellulose nanocrystals are prepared from papermaking deinking sludge through chemical conditioning, drying, crushing, chemical oxidation and microwave assisted separation, and then supported on alginate under weakly acidic conditions to provide the cellulose nanocrystals with the ability to enrich organic phosphorus in wastewater. By using this method, the content of organic phosphorus in the wastewater can be significantly reduced, the total phosphorus in the effluent can be reduced, and the wastewater treatment effluent can satisfy the discharge standard. The enriched organic phosphorus can be recycled as a phosphorus resource through incineration.
