Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for enhancing the generation of a synthetic 2D image from tomosynthesis projection images, such as a synthetic 2D image. To enhance the image, the image processing system utilizes a selected height interval to scan for objects of interest within a volume reconstructed from the tomosynthesis projection images. The height interval is larger than normal slices formed from the reconstructed volume, such that pixel information on larger masses can be obtained from adjacent slices within the volume. Further, the illustration of the object of interest in the synthetic 2D image can be modified by contributing pixel information from all tomosynthesis projections for the presentation of the object or interest. The use of pixel information from all tomosynthesis projections enhances the illustration of the high frequency components and the low frequency components of the object of interest within the enhanced image.

The one or more neural networks may be an ensemble neural network that includes neural networks for detecting a head and hand of a user, neural networks for detecting hand actions of the user, neural networks for detecting the head pose of the user, neural networks for predicting an occurrence of an event, and neural networks for predicting a start time and end time of the event. Further, the neural networks can be segmented into a modular neural network based on metadata. The segmentation of the neural network can define a thin layer of the modular neural network to enable independent tuning of the thin layer of the modular neural network.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a control method and a control device for an electric switch, and an electric switch. The control method includes: obtaining a voltage signal representing a control voltage, the control voltage input to the electric switch and applied to an electromagnetic assembly of the electric switch via a regulation device of the electric switch; determining, based on the voltage signal obtained, a target control parameter for the electromagnetic assembly, the target control parameter comprising at least one of a target voltage and a target current; and generating, based on the target control parameter determined, a control signal for the regulation device, to cause the electromagnetic assembly to drive a movable contact of the electric switch to contact a static contact of the electric switch. The solution of the present disclosure can effectively reduce wear of contact points of contacts, to thus prolong the service life of the electric switch.

Abstract: Method of generating frustration score starts with processor receiving data associated with interactions by users with website including webpages displayed during sessions. Processor generates page view scores based on page view experience indicators and zone experience indicators associated with the webpages, generates session scores based on the page view scores and session experience indicators, and generates webpage scores based on page view scores. Processor identifies the webpage associated with highest level of frustration based on page view and webpage scores and identifies the session that is associated with highest level of frustration based on the session scores. Processor causes a user interface to be displayed on a display device that includes a visualization of interactions by a user with the website associated with the session with the highest level of frustration and an identification of the webpage associated with the highest level of frustration.

Abstract: Wearable electronic devices, such as smart watches, can be provided with a band for securing the device to a wearer. The device and the band can include near-field communications (NFC) components that allow the device to uniquely identify the band. Device operations such as the color, theme, or content displayed on the device can be based, in part, on the identification of a particular band. The band may include a miniature NFC tag in an attachment portion of the band that is configured to be received in a recess in a housing of the device. An NFC module for reading the NFC tag can be provided within the recess of the housing, so that the attachment portion of the band and the recess in the device housing position and align the NFC tag with the NFC module when the band is attached to the device.

Abstract: A conversation augmentation system can automatically augment a conversation with content items based on natural language from the conversation. The conversation augmentation system can select content items to add to the conversation based on determined user “intents” generated using machine learning models. The conversation augmentation system can generate intents for natural language from various sources, such as video chats, audio conversations, textual conversations, virtual reality environments, etc. The conversation augmentation system can identify constraints for mapping the intents to content items or context signals for selecting appropriate content items. In various implementations, the conversation augmentation system can add selected content items to a storyline the conversation describes or can augment a platform in which an unstructured conversation is occurring.
