Abstract: Disclosed is a charging station capable of realizing mutual capacity aid, which comprises a plurality of charging units, a power bus and a mutual capacity aid bus. Each charging unit is powered by the power bus, and each charging unit provides mutual aid capacity for another charging unit through the mutual capacity aid bus or receives mutual aid capacity from other charging units through the mutual capacity aid bus. The charging station can realize rapid charging of electric vehicles, and can also realize mutual capacity aid.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for normalizing digital content across databases and generating personalized content recommendations. A server normalizes structured text for each content item to generate unstructured text. The server converts the unstructured text into a multidimensional content item feature set. The server trains a model based upon user profile information, historical content consumption information, historical content recommendation information, and the feature sets. The server receives a request including a vector associated with a user of a client device. The server executes the model using the vector as input to generate interaction prediction scores. The server selects scores above a threshold and identifies content items associated with each score.

Abstract: Methods preventing, ameliorating or treating cytokine storm or inflammatory disease, indications, conditions and syndromes by administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a melanocortin-1 receptor-specific cyclic peptide or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
