Abstract: A language processing method includes following steps. An initial dataset including initial phrases and initial intent labels about the initial phrases is obtained. A first intent classifier is trained with the initial dataset. Augmented phrases are produced corresponding to the initial phrases by sentence augmentation. First predicted intent labels about the augmented phrases and first confidence levels of the first predicted intent labels are generated by the first intent classifier. The augmented phrases are classified into augmentation subsets according to comparisons between the first predicted intent labels and the initial intent labels and according to the first confidence levels. A second intent classifier is trained according to a part of the augmentation subsets by curriculum learning. The second intent classifier is configured to distinguish an intent of an input phrase within a dialogue.

Abstract: A forming tool detection device includes a reflector module, an image sensor and a backlight module respectively disposed on both sides of the reflector module with a detection space formed between the backlight module and the reflector module for the insertion of a forming tool for detection. The reflector module focuses the light projected by the backlight module and reflects the focused light toward the backlight module and is provided with a hollow portion for the image sensor to capture an image of the forming tool. The reflector module is used to reflect the light emitted by the backlight module so that the tool image captured by the image sensor can detect the length and outer diameter of the forming tool, thereby simplifying the tool detection process.

Abstract: A field firmware upgrading method is adapted in a field firmware upgrading system having a computing device and a storage device. First, the computing device is boot up to a real-time operating system (RTOS), wherein the RTOS and a firmware of the storage device are communicated with each other via a driver. The RTOS sends reading commands to the firmware, such that the firmware performs a reading operation meeting a prefix proceeding, wherein the prefix proceeding defines an order which specific logic block addresses (LBAs) are read. After the firmware performs the reading operation meeting the prefix proceeding, the RTOS sends writing commands to the firmware, such that the firmware performs a writing operation meeting a specific writing proceeding to write an firmware image file into the storage device beginning at a target LBA defined by the specific writing proceeding.
