  • Patent number: 12293871
    Abstract: Described herein are concepts, system and techniques which provide a means to construct robust high-field superconducting magnets using simple fabrication techniques and modular components that scale well toward commercialization. The resulting magnet assembly—which utilizes non-insulated, high temperature superconducting tapes (HTS) and provides for optimized coolant pathways—is inherently strong structurally, which enables maximum utilization of the high magnetic fields available with HTS technology. In addition, the concepts described herein provide for control of quench-induced current distributions within the tape stack and surrounding superstructure to safely dissipate quench energy, while at the same time obtaining acceptable magnet charge time. The net result is a structurally and thermally robust, high-field magnet assembly that is passively protected against quench fault conditions.

  • Patent number: 12287666
    Abstract: This application discloses a clock synchronization method and a related apparatus in a distributed system. The distributed system includes a plurality of nodes, and the plurality of nodes include a master node and a plurality of slave nodes. The master node obtains a plurality of local clock offsets, where each of the plurality of local clock offsets indicates a clock offset between two nodes in the distributed system. The master node determines a global clock offset of a target slave node relative to the master node based on the plurality of local clock offsets, and sends the global clock offset to the target slave node. The target slave node obtains a clock reference value of a local clock, and then performs clock synchronization based on the clock reference value and the global clock offset.

  • Publication number: 20250094718
    Abstract: A text from a predetermined domain is taken and converted to canonical named entities based on an established taxonomy. Using a shared machine learning encoder model, contextual embeddings for these named entities are produced. These embeddings are then fed into a domain-specific scoring model related to the text's domain. This model ranks the embeddings based on relevance. The derived relevance scores, along with the entities, are sent to another system for further tasks. For instance, a recommendation system might use these scores to suggest relevant named entities.
