Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of powder metallurgy, especially to a tungsten wire containing lanthanum, rhenium and yttrium and preparation method thereof. It ensures the uniform distribution of the lanthanum and the yttrium by doping the lanthanum and the yttrium in manner of liquid to liquid. W—La—Y compound powder with uniform composition distribution is obtained after oxidizing process. Rhenium element loss caused by rhenium oxides formation at early stage of oxidizing process is avoided by mixing rhenium at late stage which also ensures effective addition of the rhenium element. The uniform composition distribution decreases property decay caused by stress concentration formed by doping elements. Tension strength and fatigue resistance property of the tungsten wire are improved. The tension strength of the tungsten wire containing lanthanum, rhenium and yttrium according to the present disclosure is 4600-6000 MPa.

Abstract: An online system leverages stored interactions with items made by users after the online system received queries to determine display of items satisfying the query. For example, the online system trains a model to predict a likelihood of a user performing an interaction with an item displayed after a query was received. As different items receive different amounts of interaction from users, limited historical interaction with certain items may limit accuracy of the model. The online system generates embeddings for previously received queries and uses measures of similarity between embeddings for queries to generate clusters of queries. Previous interactions with queries in a cluster are combined, with the combined data being used for determining display of items in response to a query.
