  • Publication number: 20210042368
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for implementing a web crawler platform comprising one or more containerized web crawler programs working in tandem to synergistically index web resources and reduce redundancy experienced by multiple web crawlers independently indexing overlapping web resources. The platform provides a URL namespace, allowing crawlers to register with the platform and create URL endpoints for other crawlers to discover existing crawlers registered to the platform and identify web resources previously indexed. The platform provides crawler to crawler communication and exchanges of data and metadata obtained from web resources that have been previously indexed, allowing for crawlers to share existing data or metadata without having to directly crawl through the web resource.

  • Publication number: 20210007768
    Abstract: The invention discloses a novel vascular punch employing compressive normal force for tissue separation from a targeted vessel. This invention is particularly designed for making a large round hole without massive bleeding in vascular surgery. A clean, non-frayed hole-making guided by the normal force cutting principle is realized using a site-biting punch mechanism. The side-biting vascular punch comprises a U-shaped razor blade cutter, a backstop for receiving the cutter, and a linkage mechanism, forming an aligned line of contact for normal compression force generation and thereby severing tissue out of the targeted vessel.

  • Patent number: 10872406
    Abstract: A hot spot defect detecting method and a hot spot defect detecting system are provided. In the method, hot spots are extracted from a design of a semiconductor product to define a hot spot map comprising hot spot groups, wherein local patterns in a same context of the design yielding a same image content are defined as a same hot spot group. During runtime, defect images obtained by an inspection tool performing hot scans on a wafer manufactured with the design are acquired and the hot spot map is aligned to each defect image to locate the hot spot groups. The hot spot defects in each defect image are detected by dynamically mapping the hot spot groups located in each defect image to a plurality of threshold regions and respectively performing automatic thresholding on pixel values of the hot spots of each hot spot group in the corresponding threshold region.

  • Patent number: 10812205
    Abstract: An antenna performance evaluation method is disclosed. The method includes the following steps: measuring plurality of throughput values of the to-be-tested antenna at the first angle under different average radiation signal-to-interference ratio (SIR). The average radiation SIR and throughput values are fitted to output the first fitted curve. The second throughput value is measured at a certain average radiation SIR of the second angle of the to-be-tested antenna. Calculating a difference value between the first throughput value and the second throughput value corresponding to the same average radiation SIR, and the difference value and the first fitting curve constitute the transition second fitting curve. Selecting different average radiation SIR is repeatedly, and measure the corresponding second throughput value, and the corresponding difference value is calculated to update the transition second fitting curve.
