Abstract: Disclosed is a motor, a control method, a power system, and an electric vehicle. Each phase stator winding of the motor includes two sub-winding sets. When a traction battery needs to be heated, the two sub-winding sets of the motor store electrical energy and provide alternating currents to the traction battery through an inverter, so that the traction battery uses its internal resistance for heating. In addition, the two sub-winding sets generate opposite magnetic fields which cancel each other out, so that the strength of the magnetic field inside each phase stator winding and the air gap magnetic flux are reduced, thereby alleviating the heat generation and NVH problems of the motor.

Each of the bypass wires includes a bypass transmission portion located on the working area and an anti-peeling portion located on the nonworking area. A blank area exists between the anti-peeling area and the bypass transmission portion, and the cutting line passes through the blank area. A distance between 100 um and 400 um exists from the anti-peeling portion to the cutting line.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for handling transmissions or channels in wireless communications that collide with one another. The described techniques relate to handling the collision between multiple overlapping channels (e.g., two or more channels of the same priority). For example, a collision resolution configuration may include resolving the collisions among the channels of the same priority first (e.g., feedback information transmissions first, and then control information), among the channels of the same service type first (e.g., normal channels first, and then low latency channel(s)), or across all of the channels of all priorities at once.

Abstract: A method for recognition of characters by optical means in an unclear or non-optimal image of an object document, the image carrying shadows or other impediments inputs the document into a shadow prediction model to obtain a shadow mask. A determination is made as to whether the shadow mask of the document affect an optical character recognition (OCR) performance. The method further inputs the document into a shadow removing model for removal of shadows to obtain an intermediate document if the shadow mask are deemed to affect the OCR performance, then OCR can then be performed on the final object document.

Abstract: A storage device (30) for storing a pen needle assembly (10) includes a housing (30) having first wells (44) with a dimension for receiving the pen needle assembly and second wells (46) for receiving an inner shield (24) of the pen needle assembly. The second wells (46) have a diameter less than a diameter of the first wells (44). An ejector (40) in the housing (34) can be actuated to eject the used needle hub (16) and outer covers (22) from the first well (44) and the inner shield (24) from the second well (46) for disposal.

Abstract: Techniques for selecting portions of audio tracks for content item inclusion are described. For example, a social networking system may receive, from an audio producer, an audio track. In some examples, the social networking system may, using a machine-learned model, determine a first portion of the audio track having a change of frequency over time, and provide the first portion of the audio track to a first user for inclusion in a content item. In some cases, the social networking system may receive a selection of a second portion of the audio track. Based on the selection of the second portion of the audio track, the social networking system may modify the parameters of the machine-learned model to provide the second portion of the audio track to a second user.

After the laser reflow process, the trench-filling material is solidified. The method further includes patterning the trench-filling material, with a remaining portion of the trench-filling material forming a part of a gate stack, and forming a source/drain region on a side of the gate stack.
