  • Patent number: 11959973
    Abstract: A multi-fault diagnosis method has the following steps: measuring cell voltages of a battery pack to be diagnosed; constructing a cell voltage sequence according to measured cell voltages of the battery pack to be diagnosed, and calculating a sample entropy value of the cell voltage sequence; setting a correction coefficient for representing voltage fluctuation information, and correcting the sample entropy value through the correction coefficient to obtain a corrected sample entropy value; and judging and outputting a fault type of the battery pack to be diagnosed according to a numerical value change of the corrected sample entropy value. Faults of cells can be accurately diagnosed without a model, sample entropy values under different faults can be distinguished by setting the correction coefficient, the intuitiveness and efficiency of fault detection are improved, and the fault type and time of the lithium-ion cells can be quickly, accurately and stably diagnosed and predicted.

  • Patent number: 11675978
    Abstract: An approach is provided for improving a named entity recognition. Using a multi-label classification in a neural network, a sub-entity is identified in an original sentence. First and second labels are determined indicating first and second candidate types of the sub-entity. First and second replacement sentences are generated. The first replacement sentence replaces the sub-entity in the original sentence with a first sub-entity of the first candidate type. The second replacement sentence replaces the sub-entity in the original sentence with a second sub-entity of the second candidate type. First and second confidence scores for the first and second replacement sentences are determined. Based on the first confidence score exceeding the second confidence score by more than a threshold amount, the neural network is retrained by selecting the first instead of the second candidate type as the sub-entity type.

  • Publication number: 20220172106
    Abstract: One or more computer processors extract respective features for each inter-modal sample in an inter-modal dataset, for each intra-modal sample in an intra-modal dataset, and a subsequent sample, wherein the inter-modal dataset and the intra-modal dataset are contained in a multi-modal training dataset. The one or more computer processors estimate an inter-modal label utilizing inter-modal label transformation of a subsequent sample. The one or more computer processors estimate an intra-modal label utilizing intra-modal label transformation of the subsequent sample. The one or more computer processors label the subsequent sample with a cross-modal label by combining the estimated inter-modal label and the estimated intra-modal label.
