Abstract: A dosimetry assessment method for an organ at risk (OAR) in an esophageal radiotherapy plan includes: acquiring volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plan data of a patient with esophageal cancer, and obtaining a distance-target histogram (DTH); subjecting a geometric feature vector of the DTH to dimension reduction to obtain a dimension-reduced geometric feature vector; establishing a deep belief network (DBN) model, and completing training the DBN model; non-linearly fitting a correlation between a dose feature vector and the dimension-reduced geometric feature vector to obtain a dose feature vector with a dimension being identical to a dimension of the dimension-reduced geometric feature vector; and reconstructing the dose feature vector through a decoding layer of an autoencoder structure to obtain a dose feature vector with a dimension being identical to a dimension of the geometric feature vector before the dimension reduction, and finally obtaining a dose-volume histogram (DVH) for predicting the OAR

Abstract: Cellulose nanofibers (CNF) act as a dispersing agent to directly exfoliate graphite in an aqueous solution using sonication. The resulting suspension has graphite flakes, each having 2-20 monolayers, a relatively large lateral dimension, and a plurality of CNF decorating its surfaces and edges. The dispersing effect of the CNF allows the graphite-CNF suspension to be stored without degradation until desired use. The graphite-CNF suspension can be used to form various composite structures, such as by spraying, coating, pouring, extruding, or printing the suspension, and then drying the suspension. The resulting composite structures have improved tensile strength and toughness due to hydrogen bond interactions between the CNF and graphite.

Abstract: Operation information corresponds to a first operation, where the operation information includes touch information and/or posture information of a terminal device, and manages the terminal device based on a matching degree between the operation information corresponding to the first operation and a first decision model, where the first decision model is determined based on operation information of an operation performed by a first user. According to a terminal device management method, because an operation of a user is habitual, a same user (namely, the first user) may generate a large quantity of similar operations in a process of operating the terminal device. Training is performed by using a plurality of operations of the first user, and a decision model is obtained. Based on the decision model, it can be determined whether an operation is performed by the first user.

Abstract: Presented herein are methods and compositions for enhancing specific enrichment of target sequences in a nucleic acid library. Off-target hybridization probes may be used to reduce binding and/or capture of off-target regions of a nucleic acid library in a targeted sequencing workflow. The off-target hybridization probes may be specific for locations known to generate off-target sequencing reads for a particular set of hybridization probes.

Abstract: Fault handling methods in a home service system, and associated household appliances and servers are disclosed. According to a fault handling method, the household appliance may send a first message to a primary server, and may decide the primary server fails when not receiving a feedback connection signal from the primary server. The household appliance may then send a second message to a backup server according to pre-stored identification information of the backup server, so as to connect to the backup server. Thus, the household appliances can directly communicate with the backup server to establish connections thereto, eliminating the need of communications between the primary and the backup server, and no extra servers would be needed, which can reduce the cost, thereby avoiding the collapse of the entire home service system due to failure of the primary server.

Abstract: An optical interconnect device is provided that includes a first vertical cavity of surface emitting laser (VCSEL), connected in parallel with a second VCSEL, an optical coupler that is configured to direct the light output from the first VCSEL and the second VCSEL to a single optical fiber, where a common connection of each VCSEL is controlled using a MOSFET/inverter, where in normal operation only one of the first VCSEL or the second VCSEL is enabled, where a common connection of each VCSEL is not directly connected to a ground, and a microcontroller that is configured to switch output from the first VCSEL to the second VCSEL in the event of failure by the first VCSEL, where a failure of the first VCSEL does not result a communication in link failure.
