Abstract: The present invention discloses a 3D defect detection method with magnetic flux leakage testing (MFLT). It has advantages of higher accuracy of 3D detection of defect and simpler testing device relative to the prior MFLT art. This method includes the following steps: S1: artificially magnetizing a to-be-tested structure, and measuring its MFLT signals {B}; S2: inverting magnetic charge distribution of the interior of the to-be-tested structure by using a magnetic charge distribution reconstruction algorithm to obtain the magnetic charge density of a non-defective region of the to-be-tested structure; and S3: using the magnetic charge density of the non-defective region of the to-be-tested structure as a known constant, and conducting inverse iteration to reconstruct defect depth of the defective region to obtain a 3D image of the defective region of the to-be-tested structure.
Abstract: Disclosed in the invention are a transmission method, a device, a terminal, a base station and a storage medium. The method comprises: the terminal receiving a downlink transmission; and sorting ACK/NACK feedback information of the downlink transmission according to a DAI corresponding to the downlink transmission, to obtain an ACK/NACK sequence to be fed back, and sending same. The DAI performs cumulative counting on the downlink transmission, according to at least the order of a transmitting and receiving node (TRP). Provided is a transmission scheme in which ACK/NACK feedback can be performed in a case where the terminal simultaneously receives two PDSCHs in the same serving cell.

Abstract: A code base is parsed to identify methods having changes in a code base since a last code commit. Thereafter, a call graph is traversed to identify test cases implicated by the identified methods having changes in the code base. The call graph can be a directed call graph comprising a plurality of connected nodes in which a first subset of the connected nodes are method nodes representing each method in the code base in which unidirectional edges connecting method nodes correspond to invocations by a calling method to a callee method, and in which a second subset of the connected nodes are test case nodes representing each of a plurality of available test cases to test the code base. The test case nodes are each coupled to one or more method nodes by unidirectional edges that correspond to the test case coverage of the method.
Abstract: An assembly for mounting a mobile terminal in or on a vehicle, having a mounting console which has a receiving portion for the mobile terminal. The receiving portion has a support surface for the mobile terminal starting from a vertical and being arranged in an inclined manner relative to same, and a base which delimits the bottom of the receiving portion and supports the bottom of the mobile terminal. The mounting console is arranged in a compulsory manner in or on the vehicle and its support surface is inclined towards a vehicle driver of the vehicle in such a way that when the mobile terminal is arranged as intended in the mounting console such that an operating and/or display surface of the mounted mobile terminal faces away from the vehicle driver, the operating and/or display surface is not visible to the vehicle driver.

Abstract: Systems and methods include testing the weight and water activity of a product at different times and using those measurements to track changes in the water content/water weight and non-water content/non-water weight in the product. These can be useful to detect anomalous activities or batches of processed product, such as when portions of a product are being stolen or improperly altered or wasted. Plant operators can track properties of a product as the product undergoes processing to detect stages and areas in which problems occur and can thereby improve plant and operator efficiency.
Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that allows a user to create, edit, and/or share documents without directly interfacing with a document editing application. The user can provide an input to the automated assistant in order to cause the automated assistant to interface with the document editing application and create a document. In order to identify a particular action to perform with respect to a document, and/or identify a particular subsection within the document to direct the action, the automated assistant can rely on semantic annotations. As a user continues to interact with the automated assistant to edit a document, the semantic annotations can be updated according to how the document is changing and/or how the user refers to the document. This can allow the automated assistant to more readily fulfill document-related requests that may lack express details.
Abstract: A reclosable package, and a machine and method for making that reclosable package that includes a tray for receiving a product and a substantially horizontal edge, wherein the horizontal edge extends circumferentially on an upper side of the tray and has a clamping portion releasably connected thereto. The package includes a top film across the tray, the edge and the clamping portion, and which may be releasably connected to the edge by a first sealed seam to seal the tray in a gas-tight manner. The top film may be connected to the clamping portion by a second sealed seam. A side face of the tray may include an undercut provided with a projection, the projection being suitable for locking the clamping portion in position when the clamping portion has been detached from the edge and is located between the projection of the undercut and the side face of the tray.

The first sidewall portion is removed to reveal the sidewall of the semiconductor substrate. The method further includes depositing a second semiconductor layer extending into the trench, with the second semiconductor layer having a second bottom portion over the first bottom portion, and a second sidewall portion contacting the sidewall of the semiconductor substrate. The second sidewall portion is removed to reveal the sidewall of the semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: Technologies are described for performing adaptive high-resolution digital image processing using neural networks. For example, a number of different regions can be defined representing portions of a digital image. One of the regions covers the entire digital image at a reduced resolution. The other regions cover less than the entire digital image at resolutions higher than the region covering the entire digital image. Neural networks are then used to process each of the regions. The neural networks share information using prolongation and restriction operations. Prolongation operations propagate activations from a neural network operating on a lower resolution region to context zones of a neural network operating on a higher resolution region. Restriction operations propagate activations from the neural network operating on the higher resolution region back to the neural network operating on the lower resolution region.
