Abstract: A defog lens for vehicles includes a lens barrel, a lens, and a hydrophilic layer. The lens barrel has an opening toward an object side. The lens is disposed in the lens barrel and is located at the opening. The hydrophilic layer covers a surface of the lens and includes silicone compounds. Water droplets condensed on the lens could form a sheet film sticking to the surface of the lens and hard to form spherical water droplets, thereby improving the problem that the field of view of the conventional lens is blocked by spherical water droplets, effectively improving the clarity of the image captured by the defog lens, and therefore the defog lens could be applied to various environments.

Abstract: A method for predicting clinical severity of a neurological disorder includes steps of: a) identifying, according to a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image of a brain, brain image regions each of which contains a respective portion of diffusion index values of a diffusion index, which results from image processing performed on the MRI image; b) for one of the brain image regions, calculating a characteristic parameter based on the respective portion of the diffusion index values; and c) calculating a severity score that represents the clinical severity of the neurological disorder of the brain based on the characteristic parameter of the one of the brain image regions via a prediction model associated with the neurological disorder.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for diagnosing a neurological disorder based on at least one magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image. The method includes identifying brain image regions that contain a respective portion of diffusion index values of at least one diffusion index. For each of the brain image regions, a characteristic parameter based on the respective portion of the diffusion index values is calculated. a diagnoses is then made for the brain using one of predetermined categories of the neurological disorder by performing classification on a combination of the characteristic parameters via a classifier.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a panel, a main body, a button, and a fastener. The panel defines a hole. The main body defines a quadrate through hole. The button resists against the panel, opposite to the main body. The fastener includes an elastic head at a first end and a block at an opposite second end. The elastic head passes through the hole of the panel to be fixed to the button, the block passes through the quadrate through hole of the main body. A panel fixture for the electronic device is provided as well.

Abstract: An apparatus includes container. The container includes a polygonal bottom panel comprising of N sides, N sidewalls and N flaps. Each flap is located between two adjacent sidewalls. The flaps are capable of unfolding to increase the volume of the container. N is a positive integer greater than two.

Abstract: A measuring apparatus is provided for measuring a diameter of a hole. The measuring apparatus includes a sensor unit, a data processing unit, and a display unit. The sensor unit includes a probing member. The probing member includes a plurality of probes with contact ends being arranged on a circumference, and a plurality of angle sensors. The probes are capable of contacting the inner surface of the hole. The angle sensors are arranged on each of the probes to obtain digitally an angle value of each splaying probe contacting the inner surface of the hole. The data processing unit is configured for receiving the angle value generated by the sensor unit and computing the diameter of the hole according to the value of an angle. The display unit is configured for displaying the diameter computed by the data processing unit. A method is also provided for using the measuring apparatus.

Abstract: An apparatus for separating springs includes a hollow casing, first and second tubes, and a plate. The casing defines an entrance hole allowing springs to enter, and an exit hole allowing springs to exit. The first tube has one end connected to a bottom of the casing, allowing gas to be introduced into the casing. The second tube has one end connected to a middle of the casing opposite to the hole, allowing gas to be introduced into the casing. The plate is fixed to the bottom of the casing for supporting the springs. The plate is ventilated, and is located above the end of the first tube.
