  • Patent number: 12240762
    Abstract: A material with pine-branch like samarium oxide/graphene/sulfur gel structure, and a preparation method and use thereof. The material is reduced graphene oxide carrying pine-branch like samarium oxide on the surface to form a cross-linked gel structure, and sulfur is loaded on the gel structure. The preparation method includes: subjecting graphene oxide and a samarium salt to hydrothermal reduction to prepare a reduced graphene oxide/samarium precursor; under an inert atmosphere, thermolysing the reduced graphene oxide/samarium precursor to obtain a reduced graphene oxide/pine-branch like samarium oxide gel; and melting and diffusing the sulfur onto the reduced graphene oxide/pine-branch like samarium oxide gel. The material with pine-branch like samarium oxide/graphene/sulfur gel structure greatly improves the electrochemical performance of lithium-sulfur batteries.

  • Publication number: 20240055797
    Abstract: A quick electrical-connecting structure for a high-voltage high-frequency pulse environment relates to the technical field of high-voltage high-frequency electrical engineering. The quick electrical-connecting structure includes a plug, a socket, and a cable, where the cable is connected to the socket through the plug; the plug and the socket internally enclose an annular cavity surrounding the cable; and a protective fluid is filled in the annular cavity. By charging a protective fluid to the annular cavity in the plug and the socket, a high-intensity insulating fluid protective layer is maintained around a connecting position of the cable in the annular cavity. Therefore, the quick electrical-connecting structure lowers an internal humidity, and can effectively reduce corona discharge and creepage.

  • Publication number: 20230409784
    Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention are an excimer laser energy model identification method and apparatus. The method comprises the following steps: establishing a gated recurrent network for excimer laser energy model identification; within a plurality of preset time periods, setting energy collection conditions in a single laser pulse mode, and collecting a training data set for excimer laser energy model identification; and using the training data set to train the established gated recurrent network, and when a training termination condition is satisfied, ending the training and obtaining an excimer laser energy model. By means of the method provided by the present invention, the maximum error between a pulse energy generated by the identified excimer laser energy model and an actual pulse energy is less than 1.5%, and thus, a simulation requirement of excimer laser energy characteristic control can be met.

  • Patent number: 10777229
    Abstract: Frame-level quality scores for video frames of a video item is determined. A sliding window is applied to the video frames to identify a plurality of groups of the video frames for scoring on a group-level. A plurality of group-level quality scores for the plurality of groups of video frames of the video item is determined using the frame-level quality scores of the video frames. One of the plurality of groups of video frames of the video item is selected based on the plurality of group-level quality scores. A moving thumbnail is created using the selected group of video frames selected based on the respective group level quality score.

  • Patent number: 10347294
    Abstract: A method of generating a moving thumbnail is disclosed. The method includes sampling video frames of a video item. The method further includes determining frame-level quality scores for the sampled video frames. The method also includes determining multiple group-level quality scores for multiple groups of the sampled video frames using the frame-level quality scores of the sampled video frames. The method further includes selecting one of the groups of the sampled video frames based on the multiple group-level quality scores. The method includes creating a moving thumbnail using a subset of the video frames that have timestamps within a range from the start timestamp to the end timestamp.

  • Patent number: 10152535
    Abstract: An information retrieval system uses phrases to index, retrieve, organize and describe documents. Phrases are extracted from the document collection. Documents are the indexed according to their included phrases, using phrase posting lists. The phrase posting lists are stored in an cluster of index servers. The phrase posting lists can be tiered into groups, and sharded into partitions. Phrases in a query are identified based on possible phrasifications. A query schedule based on the phrases is created from the phrases, and then optimized to reduce query processing and communication costs. The execution of the query schedule is managed to further reduce or eliminate query processing operations at various ones of the index servers.
