  • Publication number: 20240372059
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an electrode plate, a manufacturing method therefor and a battery. The manufacturing method for an electrode plate comprises: obtaining at least two active material films; stacking the at least two active material films, the fiberization directions of the two adjacent active material films being perpendicular to each other or forming an included angle, and applying a conductive glue between two adjacent active material films; rolling the stacked at least two active material films to obtain an electrode film; and combining the electrode film with a current collector to obtain the electrode plate. The manufacturing method of the present disclosure can improve the strength of the electrode film, and thus the electrode film is not prone to cracking. The included angle is formed between the fiberization directions of the two adjacent active material films, so that the electrode plate is prone to cracking are solved.

  • Publication number: 20240331144
    Abstract: A novel medical image generation approach synthesizes thin-cut computerized tomography (CT) images from thick-cut CT ones as inputs. First thick-cut CT images are obtained by maximizing the pixel-wise intensity of five or more than five continuous thin-cut ones after image registration. Second, the obtained thick-cut CT images are fed into a generator block which adopts an encoder-decoder architecture, where each thick-cut image is encoded into low-dimensional embedding space before decoding into multiple thin-cut ones. Third, a discriminator focuses on distinguishing original real thin-cut images from synthetic thin-cut images. An adversarial mechanism between the generator and discriminator causes the discriminator's output to provide an effective gradient update of the network parameters for the generator to increasingly improve the generator's ability to synthesize higher-quality thin-cut images and in turn promotes the discriminator's discriminating capability.

  • Publication number: 20240312009
    Abstract: A three dimensional classification system for recognizing cross-sectional images automatically contains a processor that executes: (1) rescaling of a plurality of cross-sectional images; and feeding the rescaled plurality of cross-sectional images into two branches; (2) feeding the rescaled plurality of cross-sectional images into a first branch for performing a plurality of convolutions on the rescaled plurality of cross-sectional images directly to learn features for distinguishing phases; (3) feeding the rescaled plurality of cross-sectional images into a second branch for reducing resolution, and then performing a plurality of convolutions on the reduced resolution plurality of cross-sectional images to learn features for distinguishing phases; and (4) concatenating convolutional output channels from the two branches to fuse global and local features, on which two fully-connected layers are stacked as a classifier to recognize cross-sectional volumetric images accurately and quickly.
