Abstract: A torque detecting system for a bottom bracket axle of a power-assisted bicycle includes a torque sensor for being mounted on the bottom bracket axle of the bicycle, a wireless signal transmitter arranged stationarily relative to the bottom bracket axle, and a wireless signal receiver for being arranged at a location of a bicycle frame of the bicycle in proximity to the bottom bracket axle. The wireless signal transmitter is adapted for receiving a detected signal, which is outputted from the torque sensor, and then transmitting the detected signal to the wireless signal receiver wirelessly. In this way, the signal attenuation and the possibility of signal loss of the detected signal can be minimized during the signal transmission, such that the torque applied on the bottom bracket axle by the bicyclist can be detected precisely.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the automatic identification of at least one informative data filter from a data set that can be used to identify at least one relevant data subset against a target feature for subsequent hypothesis generation, model building and model testing. The present invention describes methods, and an initial implementation, for efficiently linking relevant data both within and across multiple domains and identifying informative statistical relationships across this data that can be integrated into agent-based models. The relationships, encoded by the agents, can then drive emergent behavior across the global system that is described in the integrated data environment.

Abstract: In a custom code setting system of a remote control chip, M keyboard input/output pins are connected to an external keyboard to receive the input of the external keyboard. A first pin is connected to one terminal of an external resistor, while the other terminal of the external resistor is connected to ground, wherein there are N resistance values selectable for the external resistor. A resistance detecting unit is connected to the first resistor to detect the resistance of the first resistor. A second pin is connected to one of the M keyboard input/output pins for setting a custom code. When power on reset occurs, a control logic receives the resistance from the resistance detecting unit, and one of the N×M custom codes is determined according to connection between the second pin and one of the M keyboard input/output pins.
