Patent number: 11184216Abstract: A state control method includes detecting an operation execution event used for requesting to operate on a first object in a first application. The method also includes determining whether a next node of a current node of the first object in a hybrid state machine is a first state node or a first behavior-tree node. Nodes in the hybrid state machine includes at least a state node and a behavior-tree node, and a state change relationship exists among the nodes in the hybrid state machine. The method further includes, when it is determined that the next node is the first state node, performing on the first object an operation in a first state corresponding to the first state node; and, when it is determined that the next node is the first behavior-tree node, performing on the first object an operation in a first behavior-tree corresponding to the first behavior-tree node.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2018Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: TENCENT TECHNOLOGY (SHENZHEN) COMPANY LIMITEDInventors: Lei Jiang, Haobo Shan, Jinyuan Zhou

Patent number: 10908235Abstract: A method of spatially imaging a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)parameter whose measurement requires the acquisition of spatially localized NMR signals in a sample includes placing the sample in an MRI apparatus with a plurality of MRI detectors each having a spatial sensitivity map; and applying MRI sequences adjusted to be sensitive to the NMR parameter. At least one of the MRI sequences is adjusted so as to substantially fully sample an image k-space of the sample. The remainder of the MRI sequences is adjusted to under-sample the image k-space. The method further includes acquiring image k-space NMR signal datasets; estimating a sensitivity map of each of the MRI detectors using a strategy to suppress unfolding artefacts; and applying the estimated sensitivity maps to at least one of the image k-space NMR signal data sets to reconstruct a spatial image of NMR signals that are sensitive to the NMR parameter.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2017Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: The Johns Hopkins UniversityInventors: Yi Zhang, Jinyuan Zhou, Paul A.
