  • Publication number: 20220058494
    Abstract: In an approach for a hybrid ensemble model leveraging edge and server side inference, a processor receives data on an edge device. A processor sends the data to a server. A processor performs, in parallel, inference on the data using a first model on the edge device and a second model on the server. A processor returns a result of the second model to the edge device. A processor ensembles, on the edge device, a result of the first model and the result of the second model based on a set of weights to produce an ensembled result. A processor outputs the ensemble result for a user to view through a user interface of the edge device.

  • Publication number: 20220037550
    Abstract: A flat panel detector includes a base substrate, a sensing electrode and a bias electrode over the base substrate, and an insulating layer over the sensing electrode and the bias electrode at a side distal from the substrate. A difference between thicknesses of regions of the insulating layer corresponding to the sensing electrode and the bias electrode respectively is not greater than a preset threshold. When a sufficiently high voltage is applied to the insulating layer and turned on, because the thickness thereof is relatively uniform, a dark current generated by the sensing electrode and the bias electrode under the insulating layer is relatively uniform, thereby improving detection accuracy of the flat panel detector.

  • Publication number: 20220020719
    Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques of a depth-adaptive mechanism for ball grid array dipping. In an aspect, a depth-adaptive mechanism having a tensioned mesh is positioned in a reservoir filled with flux. When solder balls of an integrated circuit component are dipped into the reservoir of flux, the solder balls are pressed up against the tensioned mesh. The tensioned mesh is configured to, first, elastically deform under the downward force applied by the solder balls and, second, provide an equal and opposite pushing force in order to facilitate solder ball extraction. In so doing, the solder balls of an integrated circuit component can be more easily extracted from flux when deep ball grid array dipping is performed.
