  • Publication number: 20240117122
    Abstract: Provided are a porous silicone resin and a light-weight flexible flame-retardant composite material, belonging to the technical field of nano-porous materials. The porous silicon resin is prepared from a porous silicon resin precursor solution by means of curing and drying processes. The porous silicone resin precursor solution includes a flame retardant, a surfactant, a siloxane monomer, a catalyst, an auxiliary agent and a solvent. The porous silicone resin precursor solution is obtained by firstly dissolving the flame retardant and the surfactant in the solvent, and then adding the siloxane monomer, the catalyst and the auxiliary agent and mixing them uniformly. The porous silicone resin and the light-weight flexible flame-retardant composite material prepared therefrom have the excellent properties of high porosity, high flame retardancy, high elasticity and high strain.

  • Patent number: 11953120
    Abstract: A champagne tower-type multi-stage throttle control valve includes a valve body, a valve cover, a throttle sleeve, and a valve core. A sleeve cavity of the throttle sleeve is shaped as a stepped hole with two or more layers. The valve core is shaped as a stepped shaft with two or more layers coaxial with the throttle sleeve. The number of shaft shoulders of the valve core is smaller than or equal to the number of hole shoulders of the sleeve cavity of the throttle sleeve, such that each set of shaft shoulders of the valve core in an axial direction can form a sealing surface fit with corresponding hole shoulders of the throttle sleeve. A flow channel groove is axially or obliquely formed on each of the hole shoulders of the throttle sleeve and/or the shaft shoulders of the valve core.

  • Publication number: 20240037116
    Abstract: Systems and methods for property valuation using automated valuation models are described herein, which involve a complex series of workflows for data processing, automated valuation modeling, and error detection—each of which are capable of leveraging machine learning algorithms/techniques and can be combined and operated together in a specific manner in order to improve data availability and data quality, improve the accuracy of generated property value estimates, improve the performance of the models over time, and allow the property value estimation to be adapted to various use cases. Estimation of property value may involve an ensemble model which reconciles the outputs of different sub-models based on a use case, with the sub-models using different approaches that have their own strengths and weaknesses.

  • Patent number: 11501100
    Abstract: A computer system and associated processes are disclosed for grouping similar real estate properties into contiguous neighborhoods, and for generating neighborhood-specific models capable of estimating property values within their respective neighborhoods. A clustering component uses various sources of property-level data to group properties based on measures of property similarity. For example, the clustering component may use features extracted from property images to identify properties with similar characteristics. As another example, the clustering component may measure property similarity based on how frequently specific properties are designated as comparable in appraisal reports. A model generator uses a machine learning process to determine, for specific neighborhoods, correlations between property attributes and values, and uses these correlations to generate the neighborhood specific models.
