  • Patent number: 11963192
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for receiving scheduling information, comprising steps of: receiving Downlink Control Information (DCI); and determining, according to a mapping relationship between configured transmission resources used for a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) and scheduling information in the DCI, scheduling information corresponding to the PUSCH in the DCI. Compared with the prior art, in the present invention, the scheduling information in the DCI is determined by the mapping relationship between the configured transmission resources used for transmitting the PUSCH by a UE and the scheduling information in the DCI, so that a base station can schedule all UEs for which there is a mapping relationship between PUSCH configured transmission resources and the scheduling information in DCI by sending only one piece of DCI. The scheduling overhead is reduced, the resource waste is reduced, and the efficiency of scheduling terminals by a communication system is significantly improved.

  • Patent number: 11954442
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for performing reading comprehension with machine learning. More specifically, the present disclosure is directed to a Neural Symbolic Reader (example implementations of which may be referred to as NeRd), which includes a reader to encode the passage and question, and a programmer to generate a program for multi-step reasoning. By using operators like span selection, the program can be executed over a natural language text passage to generate an answer to a natural language text question. NeRd is domain-agnostic such that the same neural architecture works for different domains. Further, NeRd is compositional such that complex programs can be generated by compositionally applying the symbolic operators.

  • Patent number: 11955369
    Abstract: An approach for creating a buried local interconnect around a DDB (double diffusion break) to reduce parasitic capacitance on a semiconductor device is disclosed. The approach utilizes a metal, as the local interconnect, buried in a cavity around the DDB region of a semiconductor substrate. The metal is disposed by two dielectric layers and the substrate. The two dielectric layers are recessed beneath two gate spacers. The buried local interconnect is recessed into the cavity where the top surface of the interconnect is situated below the top surface of the surrounding S/D (source/drain) epi (epitaxy). The metal of the local interconnect can be made from W, Ru or Co.

  • Publication number: 20240100066
    Abstract: Provided is an oral Pt(IV) anticancer prodrug containing a 3-bromopyruvate as an axial ligand, with a molecular formula of cis,trans,cis-[Pt(1R,2R-diaminocyclohexane)(OH)(3-bromopyruvate)(C2O4)]. It is a prodrug of oxaliplatin and 3-bromopyruvic acid is a small molecular glycolysis inhibitor. The prodrug is able to simultaneously act on DNA replication and glycolytic pathways of cancer cells, giving full play to the advantage of double-acting targets. The oral Pt(IV) anticancer prodrug is synthesized by using oxaliplatin as a starting material, performing axial oxidation with H2O2 and neutralizing the oxidized product with 3-bromopyruvic acid.
