  • Publication number: 20190157888
    Abstract: A control circuit is mounted in a hub which includes first connector, second connector, third connector and power module. The first connector includes first data transmission line and first power line. The second connector includes second data transmission line and second power line. The power module includes first switch member electrically connected between the first power line and the second power line. The control circuit is electrically connected between the first data transmission line and the power module. When the third connector is electrically connected with AC source the control circuit opens the first switch member so that the first power line and the second power line are not electrically connected, and when the third connector is not electrically connected with AC source the control circuit closes the first switch member so that and the first power line and the second power line are electrically connected.

  • Publication number: 20180336486
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method applies labels to unlabeled public data for use by a global model. One or more processors train one or more local machine learning models with local private data to create one or more trained models. Processor(s) generate a label for each of the local private data using the one or more trained models, where each label describes the local private data, and then apply the label to unlabeled public data to create labeled public data. One or more processors then input the labeled public data into a global model that uses the public data.
