  • Publication number: 20240143633
    Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is a generative event extraction method based on ontology guidance, including: (1) constructing an event ontology knowledge base; (2) designing an event trigger word extraction template and an event argument extraction template; mapping an input event text to a first input sequence, and mapping an input event text integrating an event ontology to a second input sequence; (3) designing a class label mapping function that maps multi-word labels to event types and/or role types; (4) extracting the event ontology corresponding to the input event from the event ontology knowledge base, and constructing the first input sequence and the second input sequence according to the event trigger word extraction template and the event argument extraction template; and (5) predicting, by the event extraction model, the event type and the role type according to the class label mapping function and a processing mechanism thereof, and outputting an event trigger word span and an event argument

  • Patent number: 10153640
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a novel Unified Power Flow Controller UPFC and its control method. Supposing that one end of DC converter is connected to the DC transmission line of HVDC converter station or substation and the other end is connected to the DC side of a series converter, the AC output voltage of the series converter can be controlled to regulate the line power of the UPFC for operation in UPFC and SSSC mode. In addition, when the number of transformers and shunt converters is decreased at the shunt side of the UPFC, the HVDC Converter Station can be used to provide active power for the series converter of UPFC, which can effectively reduce operation costs and ensure stable operation of power grid. Therefore, there is a bright application prospect for the invention.
