  • Publication number: 20250124708
    Abstract: Provided is an efficient approach to establish a foundational video-text model for tasks including open-vocabulary video classification, text-to-video retrieval, video captioning and video question-answering. Some example implementations include a model which can be referred to as VideoCoCa. Example implementations reuse a pretrained image-text contrastive captioner (CoCa) model and adapt it to video-text tasks with little or minimal extra training. While previous works adapt image-text models with various cross-frame fusion modules (for example, cross-frame attention layer or perceiver resampler) and finetune the modified architecture on video-text data, aspects of the present disclosure leverage findings that the generative attentional pooling and contrastive attentional pooling layers in the image-text CoCa design are instantly adaptable to “flattened frame embeddings”, yielding a strong zero-shot transfer baseline for many video-text tasks.

  • Publication number: 20230141612
    Abstract: An absorbent pad including a top layer. The top layer including a first sheet, the first sheet including an outward face and an inward face, wherein the first sheet comprises a wicking material, the first sheet further including a volume approximation grid having a plurality of fluid volume estimation regions. The top layer including a second sheet, the second sheet comprising an absorbent material, the second sheet attached to the inward face of the first sheet. The absorbent pad including a bottom layer including an outward face and an inward face, the inward face of the bottom layer attached to the second sheet. The absorbent pad including a visual fluid indicator disposed on at least a portion of the top layer or the bottom layer.

  • Patent number: 6610141
    Abstract: A p-type oxide film and a process for preparing the film and p-n or n-p junctions is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, a p-type zinc oxide film contains arsenic and is grown on a gallium arsenide substrate. The p-type oxide film has a net acceptor concentration of at least about 1015 acceptors/cm3, a resistivity of no greater than about 1 ohm-cm, and a Hall mobility of between about 0.1 and about 50 cm2/Vs.
