Abstract: A method for distributing an equity reward for federated learning based on an equity theory includes the following steps: applying Adams' equity theory to federated learning, analyzing, by a participant, all factors invested in a federated task comprehensively, then giving an expected reward for this task, calculating, by the task publisher, the reputation of the participant; participating, by the participant, in each round of a training task using a local data to evaluate data contribution, model contribution, and a waiting-time allowance of the participant, then combining contribution results of the three factors to evaluate the contribution of the participant; after a global model converges, dynamically adjusting weights of the three factors according to an objective function of the equity reward, with a goal that an actual reward of the participant is as close as possible to the expected reward, and obtaining and distributing the actual reward of the participant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical field of manufacturing of metal materials, and in particular to a 7000-series aluminum alloy wire for additive manufacturing and a preparation method thereof. The wire was prepared by subjecting an Al—Ti—B intermediate alloy containing TiB2 particles generated in situ to severe plastic deformation to obtain an intermediate alloy containing TiB2 nanoparticles having a particle size of 50-1,000 nm or a mixture of two different particles; using the intermediate alloy containing TiB2 nanoparticles as a matrix raw material, adding other metal or intermediate alloy for smelting to obtain an alloy melt; preparing a wire blank with the alloy melt; subjecting the wire blank to hot rolling, drawing, intermediate annealing and surface treatment to obtain an Al—Zn—Mg—Cu alloy wire reinforced by particles at nano scale or submicron scale.

Abstract: A multiple-stage fluid operated actuator (100) is provided. The multiple-stage fluid operated actuator (100) comprises a housing (101) including a first bore (212) with a first cross-sectional area and a second bore (215) with a second cross-sectional area. The multiple-stage fluid operated actuator (100) further comprises a piston assembly (210) including a first piston (210a) movable within the first bore (212) and a second piston (210b) movable within the first and second bores (212, 215). The piston assembly (210) separates the first and second bores (212, 215) into a first fluid chamber (214a) selectively in fluid communication with a pressurized fluid source (220) or an exhaust, an airtight second fluid chamber (214b), and a third fluid chamber (214c) selectively in fluid communication with the pressurized fluid source (220) or the exhaust.
