Abstract: A human-model collaborative annotation system for training human annotators includes a database that stores images previously annotated by an expert human annotator and/or a machine learning annotator, a display that displays images selected from the database, an annotation system that enables human annotators to annotate images presented on the display, and an annotation training system. The annotation training system selects an image sample from the database for annotation by a human annotator, receives one or more proposed annotations from the annotation system, compares the human annotator's one or more proposed annotations to previous annotations of the image sample by the expert human annotator or machine learning annotator, presents attention maps on the display to draw the human annotator's attention to any annotation errors identified by the comparing, and selects a next training image sample from the database based on any errors identified in the comparing step.

Abstract: The field of new compounds and synthesis methods thereof are related, and particularly to a structure of a steric hindrance adjustable weak base light stabilizer and a preparation method and application thereof. According to the innovative light stabilizer, a steric hindrance thereof is adjusted by establishing substituent generating the steric hindrance around nitrogen atoms; moreover, an electronegativity of the nitrogen atom can be influenced by adjusting a distance of a polar group, so that an alkalinity or a nucleophilicity of the nitrogen atom is adjusted. A desired effect is obtained by adjusting a steric hindrance and a nucleophilic property or an alkalinity where the nitrogen atom is located, so that an application range of the innovative light stabilizer is widened, and the innovative light stabilizer is suitable for PC, polyester, PVC and other slightly acidic or certain electrophilic polymer materials to serve as a light stability protecting aid.

Abstract: A machine learning engine may be used to identify items in a second item category that have a visual appearance similar to the visual appearance of a first item selected from a first item category. Image data and text data associated with a large number of items from different item categories may be processed and used by an association model created by a machine learning engine. The association model may extract item attributes from the image data and text data of the first item. The machine learning engine may determine weights for parameter types, and the weights may calibrate the influence of the respective parameter types on the search results. The association model may be deployed to identify items from different item categories that have a visual appearance similar to the first item. The association model may be updated over time by the machine learning engine as data correlations evolve.
