Abstract: Provided is a fault signal locating and identifying method of industrial equipment based on a microphone array. The method includes the steps of: acquiring sound signals and dividing the acquired signals into a training set, a verifying set and a test set; performing feature extraction on the sound signals in the training set, and extracting a phase spectrogram and an amplitude spectrogram of a spectrogram; sending an output of a feature extraction module, as an input, to a CNN, and in each layer of the CNN, learning a translation invariance in the spectrogram by using a 2D CNN; in between the layers of the CNN, normalizing the output by using a batch normalization, and reducing a dimension by using a maximum pooling layer along a frequency axis; sending an output from the layers of the CNN to layers of RNN; using a linear activation function; and inputting an output of a full connection layer to two parallel full connection layer branches for fault identification and fault location, respectively.

Abstract: Provided is an LSTM-based hot-rolling roll-bending force predicting method including the steps of acquiring final rolling data of a stand of a stainless steel rolling mill when performing a hot rolling process, and dividing the data into a training set traindata and a test set testdata; normalizing the traindata; building a matrix P; using a last row of the matrix P as a label of the training set, namely a true value; calculating and updating an output value and the true value of a network; after network training is completed, taking the last m output data of the LSTM network as an input at a next moment, and then obtaining an output of the network at the next moment, wherein the output is a predicted value of the roll-bending force at the next moment; repeating the steps until a sufficient number of prediction data is obtained; and comparing the processed data with the true value in the testdata to check the validity of the network.

Abstract: The life cycle of an application can be shortened by initiating the creation of a mock-up test script before the development of an application is complete. The concurrent creation of the mock-up test script and the application can reduce a time associated with the life cycle of an application. Mock-up test script creation is based on the user interface (UI) specification and a mock-up graphical user interface (GUI) without business logic. Test script creation can include associating a functional specification and a UI specification with a proposed application and creating a mock-up GUI for testing based on the UI specification. Test script creation can include developing an application based on the proposed application that includes a logic based on the functional specification and a GUI based on the UI specification and creating a mock-up test script based on the mock-up GUI and not based on the logic, the functional specification, and the GUI.

Abstract: In one example, a method for testing a multi-threaded application includes running an initial test of the multi-threaded application and collecting thread generation data and determining the thread hierarchy. The thread execution is then modified to produce a modified configuration and a second test is run with the modified configuration. A device for testing of multi-threaded applications is also provided.

Abstract: A polyester material including a composite having a carbon nanostructure, which comprises carbon element, from 0.5 to 4 wt % of a first non-carbon non-oxygen element substance, and from 0 to 4 wt %, of a second non-carbon non-oxygen element. The first non-carbon non-oxygen element is selected from the group consisting of P, Si, Ca, Al and Na; the second non-carbon non-oxygen element is any one selected from the group consisting of Fe, Ni, Mn, K, Mg, Cr, S or Co, or a combination of at least two selected therefrom. The G peak and D peak of the carbon element in the Raman spectrum has a peak height ratio of 1-20 in the composite having a carbon nanostructure.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed to generate software test script from video. Example methods disclosed herein include determining a user action in a frame of a video comprising recorded testing of software. The example method also includes identifying an action parameter corresponding to the user action. The example method also includes based on the action parameter, generating without user intervention a script to execute on the software.

Abstract: A test code is generated based on a test rule relating to testing of executable code. The test code is executed to perform a test of the executable code, where executing the test code causes performance of actions including operation of user-activatable control elements of the executable code. In response to detecting an abnormal behavior of the executable code during the test, instructions of the test code relating to the actions are saved to allow a replay of the test to identify a cause of the abnormal behavior.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a system, non-transitory computer readable medium, and method for recording and replaying user operations. An appearance of a graphical object is recorded. It is determined whether the recorded appearance is different than the current appearance of the graphical object.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing optical supercontinuum. The method comprises creating a spectrally narrow phase feature within a supercontinuum spectrum produced from a laser pulse that has been subjected to supercontinuum generation, thereby producing a modified supercontinuum spectrum, and propagating the modified supercontinuum spectrum through an optical waveguide that is suitable for supercontinuum generation, thereby further modifying the modified supercontinuum spectrum. The method may include modifying the modified supercontinuum spectrum by increasing its energy in a vicinity of the phase feature.
