  • Publication number: 20240127616
    Abstract: A method for text-image integration is provided. The method may include receiving a question related to pairable data comprising text data and image data. Embeddings are generated from the text tokens and image encodings. Embeddings are generated from the text tokens and image encodings. The embeddings include text embeddings and image embeddings. A spectral conversion of the text embeddings and the image embeddings is performed to generate spectral data. The spectral data is processed to extract text-image features. The text-image features are processed to generate inferred answers to the question.

  • Patent number: 10777914
    Abstract: A grounding pin for connecting a vehicle body to a pole of a vehicle battery includes a pin plate and a pin shaft. The pin shaft protrudes from the pin plate, the pin shaft includes an external thread, and a longitudinal axis of the pin shaft forms a center line of the grounding pin. The pin plate has an installation securing face which points radially outward and which is parallel to a face which passes through the center line. The installation securing face is disposed closer to the center line than a circumferential face of the pin plate. The pin plate has a connection face which points away from the pin shaft and which is matched to the vehicle body for a welding purpose.
