  • Patent number: 12123106
    Abstract: Electromagnetic waves are uniformly distributed on the light-receiving surface side by taking advantage of their property of being easily concentrated in sharp parts, and the front area (SA) on the emission surface side is made larger than the back area (SB) on the light-receiving surface side (SA/SB>1), thereby forming a more moderate electric field region. A reduced gold fine particle group (average particle size: 20 nm) was self-assembled on a transparent polyester resin film and half-submerged and fixed. This base material was repeatedly immersed in an electroless gold plating solution so that gold particles were deposited on the gold fine particles. 10 microliters of a protein solution was added dropwise to this nanostructured substrate, and crystallized by a hanging drop vapor diffusion method.

  • Publication number: 20240247850
    Abstract: A heat pump system regulates, by use of a heat medium, a temperature of an object and includes a flow-rate acquisition device acquiring a flow rate of the heat medium. A heat source apparatus regulates a temperature of the heat medium and includes a compressor, a heat medium heat exchanger, and a controller including adjustment calculation circuitry, and control calculation circuitry. The adjustment calculation circuitry calculates, when a first condition is met, an amount of adjustment by use of an operating frequency of the compressor. The amount of adjustment is used to adjust a first flow rate of the heat medium that is based on a measurement result acquired from the flow-rate acquisition device. The control calculation circuitry adjusts, by use of the amount of adjustment, the first flow rate.

  • Publication number: 20240242039
    Abstract: A language model training apparatus obtains a target sentence including a sequence of a word that is a known word or a new word. The apparatus generates position information of a new word included in the target sentence and a token sequence that is a sequence of an identifier of the word included in the target sentence. The token sequence includes a first token sequence for a teacher model and a second token sequence for a student model. The first token sequence and the second token sequence are different in at least some of a processed word. The apparatus updates a parameter of the student model utilizing knowledge distillation from the teacher model to the student model based on the position information, the first token sequence, and the second token sequence.
