  • Publication number: 20260023968
    Abstract: A translation model training method comprises: acquiring a first translation loss, which is positively correlated with a probability that a target output token and a preceding output token are the same token, the target output token being the token expected to be output when translating a plurality of input tokens included in input information, and the preceding output token being the token obtained by the translation model when translating the plurality of input tokens before obtaining the target output token; acquiring a first contribution degree of the plurality of input tokens to the target output token and a second contribution degree of the plurality of input tokens to the preceding output token; adjusting the first translation loss based on a similarity between the first contribution degree and the second contribution degree to obtain a second translation loss; and training the translation model based on the second translation loss.

  • Publication number: 20250390797
    Abstract: A model training method, a recommendation method, and a search method are provided. A first feature network and a second feature network are trained based on first association relationships between sample users and second sample objects with which the sample users have interactive behaviors, second association relationships between first sample objects and second sample objects that satisfy a similarity condition with the first sample objects, third association relationships between the first sample objects and the sample users, and training labels of whether the sample users have interactive behaviors with the second sample objects and the first sample objects respectively. The first feature network extracts collaborative features of a target user, and the second feature network extracts content features of a target object. A matching result of the content features and the collaborative features is used to determine whether to recommend the target object to the target user.

  • Patent number: 11654889
    Abstract: Onboard engine control for vehicles is disclosed herein. An example method includes determining a moving average of duty cycle periods for a power component of a vehicle for recent power load events, each of the duty cycle periods having both on-time portions and off-time portions; and when the on-time portions of the moving average are above a predetermined percentage, an engine of the vehicle remains in an on-state condition, further wherein when a current off-time period of the power component exceeds a value equal to a predetermined multiplier applied to the off-time portions, the engine is placed in an off-state condition.

  • Patent number: 11630097
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a quantitative evaluation method for concrete workability based on bottom resistance, including the following steps: step 1, carrying out a test for bottom resistance of fresh concrete; step 2, drawing a curve of inserting velocity of steel sheet over time; and step 3, quantitatively evaluating a concrete workability based on conditions of the bottom resistance. This method can quantitatively characterize the sinking condition of aggregate of the fresh concrete by effectively carrying out the test for bottom resistance of fresh concrete, calculating the inserting velocity of concrete and drawing the curves of displacement and velocity over time, so as to achieve the quantitative evaluation for concrete workability and overcome the defects of conventional methods that it is difficult to quantitatively characterize the segregation degree of concrete.
