Abstract: A method for training an image processing model includes: acquiring a to-be-corrected eye image set matching a usage environment of the image processing model; performing style transfer on to-be-corrected eye images in the to-be-corrected eye image set through a style transfer network in the image processing model, to obtain a target eye image; acquiring a training sample matching the usage environment of the image processing model based on the to-be-corrected eye images and the target eye image, the training sample including object eye images matching different gaze positions; and training a correction network in the image processing model through the training sample matching the usage environment of the image processing model, to obtain a model update parameter matching the correction network, and generating a trained image processing model based on the model update parameter.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for digital wireless communication, and more specifically, for initializing and using demodulation reference signals. In one exemplary aspect, a method of wireless communication performed by a communication node includes generating a first portion of an initial value of a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) based, at least in part, on combining a time index and at least a portion of an ID index. The method also includes generating a second portion of the initial value of the DMRS based, at least in part, on the ID index, and generating the initial value of the DMRS by combining at least the first and second portions. The method further includes transmitting or receiving the DMRS.

Abstract: Methods for preparing composite non-woven fibers-in-fibers, otherwise referred to as composite polymeric fibers having an island-in-sea morphology, are described. The composite polymeric fibers may be prepared by a method that includes melt-blowing a blend of a first polymer and an immiscible second polymer to form the composite polymer fibers. The first polymer forms a matrix that surrounds the second polymer. Typically, the second polymer forms nanofibers within the matrix of the first polymer. The composite polymeric fiber may be treated with a solvent that selectively dissolves the matrix of the composite polymeric fiber and that does not dissolve the nanofibers of the composite polymeric fiber, and the nanofibers then may be collected for further treatment or use.
