  • Publication number: 20240159642
    Abstract: A smoke detector with an anti-insect function includes a substrate, an optical detection module, a top cover, a base and a perforated plate. The substrate has a ring shape region surrounding a central detection region, and a first block structure of the central detection region is protruded from the substrate and higher than an upper surface of the ring shape region. The optical detection module is disposed inside the central detection region. The top cover has a lateral wall. The base is disposed on the substrate and connected to the top cover to cover the optical detection module. The base has a second block structure partly overlapped with the lateral wall to form a guiding channel. The perforated plate is disposed between the lateral wall and the second block structure to prevent an insect from moving into the top cover through the guiding channel.

  • Patent number: 11937932
    Abstract: An acute kidney injury predicting system and a method thereof are proposed. A processor reads the data to be tested, the detection data, the machine learning algorithm and the risk probability comparison table from a main memory. The processor trains the detection data according to the machine learning algorithm to generate an acute kidney injury prediction model, and inputs the data to be tested into the acute kidney injury prediction model to generate an acute kidney injury characteristic risk probability and a data sequence table. The data sequence table lists the data to be tested in sequence according to a proportion of each of the data to be tested in the acute kidney injury characteristics. The processor selects one of the medical treatment data from the risk probability comparison table according to the acute kidney injury characteristic risk probability.

  • Publication number: 20240071535
    Abstract: Provided is an anti-fuse memory including a anti-fuse memory cell including an isolation structure, a select gate, first and second gate insulating layers, an anti-fuse gate, and first, second and third doped regions. The isolation structure is disposed in a substrate. The select gate is disposed on the substrate. The first gate insulating layer is disposed between the select gate and the substrate. The anti-fuse gate is disposed on the substrate and partially overlapped with the isolation structure. The second gate insulating layer is disposed between the anti-fuse gate and the substrate. The first doped region and the second doped region are disposed in the substrate at opposite sides of the select gate, respectively, wherein the first doped region is located between the select gate and the anti-fuse gate. The third doped region is disposed in the substrate and located between the first doped region and the isolation structure.

  • Publication number: 20100245282
    Abstract: An input method based upon a multi-touch screen and for use in an electronic device is disclosed. Firstly, a lookup table is stored. The lookup table includes commands and groups of inputs, where each command is associated with a group of inputs. Two touch signals of two inputs are detected. If the two touch signals are detected at the same time, corresponding locations of the two inputs are detected too. Otherwise, the two touch signals are cleared. A group of inputs are determined based upon the two touch signals and the two touch locations. Then, a command is looked up using the determined group of inputs and the lookup table. Finally, the command is inputted to the electronic device.
