Abstract: The present invention belongs to the technical field of biomass carbon materials, and relates to a lignin porous carbon nanosheet, a preparation method therefor, and an application thereof in supercapacitor electrode materials. The method of the present invention performs layer-by-layer self-assembly of sulfonated lignin and oxalate in a selective solvent to prepare a layer-by-layer self-assembled lignin/oxalate composite, which is then carbonized and pickled to obtain the lignin porous carbon nanosheets. The lignin porous carbon nanosheets prepared by the above method of the present invention have a specific surface area of 200-1500 m2/g, a micropore specific surface area of 100-500 m2/g, a mesoporous specific surface area of 100-1000 m2/g, a pore diameter of 0.5-30 nm, and a pore volume of 0.5-1.5 cm3/g; they can be applied to supercapacitor electrode materials, showing higher specific capacitance and excellent rate performance (with a specific capacitance retention rate of 76.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for locating root causes is provided. The method includes detecting a trigger point from entity metrics data and key performance indicator (KPI) data, generating a learned causal graph by fusing a state-invariant causal graph with a state-dependent causal graph, and locating the root causes by employing a random walk-based technique to estimate a probability score for each of the entity metrics data by starting from a KPI node.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for identifying root cause failure and fault events is provided. The method includes detecting a trigger point, converting, via an encoder, previous system state data, new batch data in a next system state, and a causal graph to system state-invariant embeddings and system state-dependent embeddings, generating a learned causal graph, via a graph generation layer, by integrating state-invariant and state-dependent information, and predicting, by a prediction layer, future time-series data on the learned causal graph.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for detecting trigger points to identify root cause failure and fault events is provided. The method includes collecting, by a monitoring agent, entity metrics data and system key performance indicator (KPI) data, integrating the entity metrics data and the KPI data, constructing an initial system state space, detecting system state changes by calculating a distance between current batch data and an initial state, and dividing a system status into different states.

Abstract: Provided are a slide show control method and an apparatus. The method includes: displaying (S102) a control interface in a slide show interface, receiving (S104) a switch instruction acting on a thumbnail, and in response to the switch instruction, obtaining (S106) the slide page corresponding to the thumbnail on which the switch instruction acts and switching the slide page currently displayed in the slide show interface to the slide page corresponding to the thumbnail on which the switch instruction acts. With the control interface displayed in the slide show interface, after the user inputs the switch instruction on the thumbnail in the control interface, the slide page currently displayed in the slide show interface can be automatically switched to the slide page corresponding to the thumbnail on which the switch instruction acts. And even when a touch device is used to present the slides, the page switch can be done in the show state, which simplifies the user's operation.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display includes a glass substrate and a driver chip. The liquid crystal display further includes a testing line formed in the glass substrate and extending close to an edge of the glass substrate. The driver chip includes an input pin and an output pin, and two ends of the testing line are separately connected to the input pin and the output pin to form a closed loop.
