Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a visible light-catalyzed translucent concrete, and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method includes: extracting an iron oxide from a copper slag, mixing the iron oxide with TiO2 to obtain a photocatalyst, and then mixing the photocatalyst with an additive to obtain a photocatalytic slurry; preparing a concrete slurry using the copper slag after iron extraction as an aggregate; and pouring the photocatalytic slurry, the concrete slurry, and the photocatalytic slurry in sequence into a mold pre-laid with an optical fiber, to obtain the visible light-catalyzed translucent concrete.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to implementing a configuration portfolio having a compact set of model configurations that are predicted to perform well with respect to a wide variety of input tasks. Systems described herein involve evaluating machine learning models with respect to a set of training tasks to generate a regret matrix based on accuracy of the machine learning models in connection with predicting outputs for the training tasks. The systems described herein can identify a subset of model configurations from a plurality of model configurations based on the subset of model configurations having lower associated metrics of regret with respect to the training tasks. This ensures that each model configuration within the configuration portfolio will perform reasonably well for a given input task and provides a mechanism for selecting an output model configuration using significantly fewer processing resources than conventional model selection systems.

Abstract: System and method for fine granularity control of data access and usage for across multi-tenant systems. A user makes a request to access a particular set of data from a particular remote data source for a specific purpose. The system authorizes the user to validate whether the user is qualified to make the request. The data source is checked to see if the particular data has been granted access for that particular purpose. A cloud neutral token is created and converted into a cloud specific token upon reaching the remote data source. The cloud specific token is used to create a temporary IAM role and IAM policy with a predetermined time to live. After the time to live expires, the IAM role and IAM policy are deleted.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to employing an interactive speculative planning system to complete a plan and execute the steps of a requested task. Systems described herein implement a fast approximation agent and an accurate target agent to generate action steps in response to receiving a request to complete a task. For each task, the approximation agent generates action steps sequentially. Simultaneously, for every step the approximation agent produces, the described system calls the target agent asynchronously to generate the next step, using the current trajectory from the approximation agent as a provisional prefix. For each action step, if the outputs of the approximation agent and the target agent match, the described system continues the process. However, if there is a mismatch, the described system halts the approximation agent, and replaces its output with the target agent's output to ensure performance is not compromised.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a preparation method of nano-aluminum oxide (nano-Al2O3) with a controllable hydroxyl content, belonging to the technical field of nano-alumina. H2O2 dissolved in water dissociates a large number of hydroxyl radicals. In the present disclosure, a resulting H2O2 solution is used as a solvent for precipitation; during the precipitation, a soluble aluminum salt and a pore-enlarging agent are reacted to generate a precipitate under alkaline conditions, and the hydroxyl radicals are distributed on a surface of the precipitate. During drying, the hydroxyl radicals are converted into bound water and distributed on a surface and in pores of an aluminum hydroxide precursor; during roasting, the bound water is destroyed to form hydroxyl. The hydroxyl content of the nano-Al2O3 can be regulated by controlling a concentration of the H2O2 solution, and the nano-Al2O3 has the hydroxyl content positively correlated with the concentration of the H2O2 solution.

Abstract: This document relates to budget-constrained index tuning in database systems. A method for index tuning within a database system includes receiving a budget constraint, generating a set of candidate indexes for a workload of queries, and determining a derived cost for each query-configuration pair (QCP). The method further involves identifying a subset of QCPs where the derived cost and a what-if cost have a delta value below a predefined difference threshold and allocating the budget constraint to these identified QCPs to avoid what-if calls. Additionally, the method reallocates a saved portion of the budget constraint to other QCPs where the delta value exceeds the difference threshold, evaluates these other QCPs using what-if calls to select an optimal index configuration, and applies the selected index configuration to the database system.
