  • Publication number: 20250042810
    Abstract: A microwave heat treatment method for granulated blast furnace slag is provided, which includes the following steps: subjecting the granulated blast furnace slag to microwave heat treatment at a frequency of 900-930 MHz and then cooling the slag. Microwave rapid heating is utilized to remove the moisture in the granulated blast furnace slag, stress is generated inside the granulated blast furnace slag particles to promote the formation of cracks or the decomposition of the granulated slag particles into small particles. After the microwave reaches a certain power, the microwave is turned off, an air blower is turned on, and thermal stress is generated inside the granulated blast furnace slag particles, so that the particles are further promoted to generate cracks or fragmentation; and then the desired fine powder can be obtained by ball milling the granulated blast furnace slag after microwave heat treatment for a short time.

  • Publication number: 20250046010
    Abstract: Method and system for estimating 3D camera pose based on 2D features. 3D virtual camera poses are generated, each of which is used to determine a perspective to project a 3D model of a target organ to create a 2D image of the target organ. 2D features are extracted from each 2D image and paired with the corresponding 3D virtual camera pose to represent a mapping. A 2D feature-camera pose mapping model is obtained based on the pairs. Input 2D features extracted from a real-time 2D image of the target organ are used to map, via the 2D feature-camera pose mapping model, to a 3D pose estimate of a laparoscopic camera, which is then refined to derive an estimated 3D camera pose of the laparoscopic camera via differential rendering of the 3D model with respect to the 3D pose estimate.
