  • Publication number: 20220083155
    Abstract: The present invention supports the control of a plurality of controlled devices. With three dimensional accelerometer components, detection of a user action on a remote controller and the orientation of the remote controller are viable through small electronic devices. Aspects of the invention are based on the three dimensional accelerometer components to provide a remote controller that can detect the user action. Based on the user action, the remote controller transmits a signal to the controlled device which conveys the corresponding command. A selected controlled device may be matched to the remote controller. The remote controller and controlled device may also support a learning mode, in which the controlled device sends a list of supported commands to the remote controller. The remote controller then matches an associated action with each command in the command list.

  • Patent number: 10355986
    Abstract: A method and device for forwarding an interest packet based on a probability tree in an information network. By introducing a probability tree, the process of forwarding an interest packet is finally changed into a selection process: starting from a root node of the probability tree, selecting child nodes of a current node according to the probability of each child node of the current node, and stopping selecting until the selected child node is a leaf node. Moreover, the introduced probability tree provides a good carrier for machine learning. By considering the selection process as an optimization problem, the selection process can be converged to be approximate to an optimal state using online machine learning, and moreover, the probability of each node in the probability tree can be adjusted according to changes in network conditions, so that the forwarding method and device have strong adaptability to the network changes, thereby improving self-adaptability.
