  • Patent number: 12260350
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for constructing a target prediction model in a multicenter small sample scenario and a prediction method. In combination with the idea of transfer learning, a training set of a new node is predicted by directly using knowledge of a trained node, and a prediction error sample is used to reflect a difference between the new node and the trained node. The difference is used as supplementary knowledge. Model knowledge of the new node is quickly acquired, to avoid training of a new node from scratch each time. Finally, parallel integration of incremental subclassifiers is implemented by using a ridge regression method, so that the deployment time and costs are greatly reduced. The generalization of models is ensured through sharing of historical knowledge and a knowledge discarding mechanism, good classification effect can also be achieved for a node with a small sample size.

  • Publication number: 20250096357
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a multi-function, integrated Super Beam assembly structure with integrated structural, cooling, and transverse elastic compliance functions; and Thermal Management Propagation (TMP) protection. The Super Beam assembly includes a pair of parallel face plates, coolant channel cover plates, and coolant channels that are defined by the face plate and the one or more coolant channel cover plates. The structural design of the cooling channels, and the corresponding air gaps formed in-between them, allows a transverse elastic compliance of the Super Beam assembly to be tuned to different amounts of elasticity. Top, bottom and/or end structural channels may be included. A pair of TMP suppression channels may be attached to the Super Beam assembly structure with an adhesive “thermal fuse” that preferentially melts and causes the pair of TMP suppression channels to detach from the Super Beam assembly during overheating in a TMP event.
