  • Publication number: 20240312232
    Abstract: An embodiment for a method of extracting information from documents using knowledge graphs and prompt-based learning. The embodiment may receive a document and perform optical character recognition (OCR) to obtain OCR text lines and associated bounding boxes. The embodiment may encode each of the obtained OCR text lines into semantic vectors and each of the associated bounding boxes into position vectors to generate a knowledge graph using fusion vectors derived therefrom. The embodiment may receive a query including a key value. The embodiment may identify a series of candidate nodes including a series of most similar nearby nodes positioned near a first node associated with the key value. The embodiment may generate prompt template to determine closeness of the candidate nodes to the key value and calculate associated confidence levels. The embodiment may output extraction information associated with the candidate node having a highest calculated confidence level.

  • Patent number: 11352284
    Abstract: A system for urban organic solid waste pyrolysis-gasification coupled with drying includes a sludge feeding and storage device, a pre-drying device, a cyclone separator, a specific cloth bag for sludge and a flue gas waste heat recovery device sequentially connected. The cyclone separator and a sludge outlet of the specific cloth bag for sludge are connected with a cyclone fluidized bed gasification furnace. The cyclone fluidized bed gasification furnace is connected with a high-temperature separator. The high-temperature separator is connected with a secondary combustion chamber. High-temperature flue gas generated by the secondary combustion chamber serves as a heat source of the pre-drying device. Ash generated by the high-temperature separator and secondary combustion chamber is sent to an ash bin after being cooled by a cold slag conveyor.

  • Patent number: 10430686
    Abstract: A system described herein may allow for the enhanced identification of candidate images that are similar to a reference image. For example, a primary focus and one or more secondary foci may be identified in the reference image (where a “focus” corresponds to a visual feature of the reference image). Characteristics (e.g., size, shape, color, etc.) of the secondary foci may be identified. Positional relationships of the secondary foci to the primary focus may also be identified. Candidate images may be scored based on whether they include the primary focus and one or more secondary foci, as well as whether the secondary foci match the characteristics and/or positional relationships of corresponding secondary foci in the reference image.
