  • Patent number: 12262182
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a bone conduction-based clamping device and processing method. The device includes a handle, a clamping structure provided on one side of the handle, and a sound generating processor provided inside the handle. A user puts food into his mouth cavity by clamping the food with the clamping structure, and a vibration signal generated by the sound generating processor is transmitted to the food by the clamping structure and then transmitted to the user's auditory system by an oral tissue or teeth of the user, thereby avoiding the pressing feeling caused by wearing in a pressing manner. Putting the clamping structure into the user's mouth cavity can also reduce sound leakage, improve sound quality and protect privacy. In addition, the food can be replaced by the clamping structure, thereby guaranteeing hygiene and health, improving the usage rate of the device, and realizing multi-user sharing.

  • Patent number: 12262169
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a bone conduction based sound generating lollipop, a processing method and a system thereto. The bone conduction based sound generating lollipop includes a housing, a trigger, a controller and a sound generating component. The sound generating component, the controller and the trigger are integrated in a packaging cavity formed by the housing, and a separate packaging of the sound generating component is eliminated. When a supporting component of the housing enters a human oral cavity, the trigger sends an opening instruction to the controller, the controller drives the sound generating component to vibrate, and then a vibration signal is transmitted to a human auditory system in a bone conduction manner after passing through the supporting component of the housing and an edible object attached to the supporting component, and passing through an oral tissue or teeth of the human body.

  • Publication number: 20250071977
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a substrate and a first bit line pillar. The first bit line pillar is located on the substrate, and includes a first dielectric layer, a first insulating layer, and a first contact layer that are successively stacked in a thickness direction of the substrate. The first insulating layer is adjacent to the substrate and has a first preset thickness. The first preset thickness is associated with a thickness sum of the first dielectric layer, the first insulating layer, and the first contact layer. A ratio of a length of a top surface of the first insulating layer in a first direction to a length of a bottom surface of the first insulating layer in the first direction is a first target value. The first direction, the top surface and the bottom surface of the first insulating layer are all perpendicular to the thickness direction.

  • Publication number: 20250011812
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to compositions and methods for treating spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The disclosure is based, in part, on isolated nucleic acids and vectors (e.g., viral vectors, such as rAAV vectors) encoding SMN1. In some embodiments, the expression of SMN 1 is driven by a native SMN 1 promoter or a variant thereof. In some embodiments, isolated nucleic acids and vectors of the disclosure have reduced toxicity and/or increased transgene expression relative to previously described SMN-encoding vectors.

  • Publication number: 20230028536
    Abstract: A method of estimating employee turnover rates obtains original employee data from a preset data source. First data processing is applied to the original employee data to obtain first processed employee data. A training set and a first verification set are selected from the first processed employee data. The training set is used to train a machine learning model to obtain a turnover estimation model. The first verification set is used to verify the turnover estimation model to obtain a first estimation result. The turnover estimation model is optimized according to the first estimation result to obtain an optimized turnover estimation model. Updated employee data and a corresponding employee turnover rate of a second time period are obtained. The method helps to replenish manpower in time and avoids over-recruitment.
