Abstract: A micro-power wireless access method and apparatus for the Internet of things for power transmission and transformation equipment involves a time synchronization process, a traffic channel access process, a control channel configuration information access process, and a control channel burst information access process. In the time synchronization process, an aggregation node determines a delay parameter and other parameters based on a timeslot in which traffic information randomly transmitted by a sensing terminal is located, and the sensing terminal adjusts transmission time of a corresponding frame based on the parameters. The traffic channel access process adopts a mode in which one-way reporting is mainly used, to minimize working time of a sensor. The present disclosure realizes limited two-way communication on a control channel, supports configuration of a sensor cycle, a threshold, and other parameters, and supports a retransmission mechanism on the control channel for important alarm information.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains a training dataset containing a first set of records associated with a first set of identifier (ID) values and an evaluation dataset containing a second set of records associated with a second set of ID values. Next, the system selects a random subset of ID values from the second set of ID values. The system then generates a sampled evaluation dataset comprising a first subset of records associated with the random subset of ID values in the second set of records. The system also generates a sampled training dataset comprising a second subset of records associated with the random subset of ID values in the first set of records. Finally, the system outputs the sampled training dataset and the sampled evaluation dataset for use in training and evaluating a machine learning model.

Abstract: A method for inducing reprogramming of a cell of a first type which is not a non-hepatocyte (non-hepatocyte cell), into a cell with functional hepatic drug metabolizing and transporting capabilities, is disclosed. The non-hepatocyte is induced to express or overexpress hepatic fate conversion and maturation factors, cultured in somatic cell culture medium, hepatocyte cell culture medium and hepatocyte maturation medium for a sufficient period of time to convert the non-hepatocyte cell into a cell with hepatocyte-like properties. The iHeps induced according to the methods disclosed herein are functional induced hepatocytes (iHeps) in that they express I and II drug-metabolizing enzymes and phase III drug transporters and show superior drug metabolizing activity compared to iHeps obtained by prior art methods. The iHeps thus provide a cell resource for pharmaceutical applications.
