Abstract: A method for selection of a calibration set and a validation set based on spectral similarity and modeling. The method includes: performing NIR spectrometry on original samples to obtain a spectral matrix of the original samples; randomly selecting m samples as an independent test set; calculating spectral similarity between each of the samples in the independent test set and each of the remaining samples in the original samples respectively to obtain g samples having the highest similarity to be written into the validation set; and calculating spectral similarity between each of the samples in the validation set and each of the remaining samples in the original samples respectively to obtain n samples having the highest similarity to be written into the calibration set. Based on the validation set and the calibration set selected through the method, an obtained model can predict unknown samples more accurately.

Abstract: The present invention provides an articulation evaluation method and system combining acoustic features and articulation motion features. According to the articulation evaluation method and system, audio data and articulation motion data are acquired, acoustic features are extracted from the audio data, articulation motion features are extracted from the articulation motion features, and feature fusion and policy fusion are performed on the acoustic features and the articulation motion features according to a time correspondence, which effectively utilizes the complementarity of the two types of features to ensure the objectivity and comprehensiveness of evaluation, so that a more accurate and reliable feature fusion evaluation result and decision fusion evaluation result are obtained, making the articulation evaluation more objective and accurate.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an operating instrument for a spinal implant. The operating instrument includes an extension assembly, a central rod, and an operating handle. The extension assembly includes an outer sleeve, and one end of the outer sleeve is connected with a first part of the spinal implant. The central rod passes through the outer sleeve, and one end of the central rod connects to a second part of the spinal implant. The operating handle includes a fixing element, a rotating element, and a pushing element. The rotating element is sleeved on the outer side of the fixing element. The pushing element connects with the central rod, and the rotating element presses against the pushing element. The rotating element is rotated to cause the pushing element to drive the central rod to move the second part, thereby expanding the spinal implant.

Abstract: The present invention provides a spinal implant structure. The spinal implant structure comprises a first tube, a second tube and at least one expansion arm. The second tube is disposed on the horizontal orientation of the first tube and does not overlap with the first tube. The diameter of the first tube is larger than that of the second tube. One end of the expansion arm is connected to the first tube, and the other end of the expansion arm is free end. The expansion arm and the first tube create an angle. The expansion arm includes a supporting arm. One end of the supporting arm is connected to the expansion arm, and the other end of the supporting arm is connected the second tube. The support arm, in response to a change in a distance between the first tube and the second tube, drives the expansion arm to move, thereby increasing the included angle and expanding the spinal implant structure.
