Abstract: How to correctly understand natural language query and catch the useful information from it is a long-standing research question in the chatbot field. However, in many cases only a small set of words are sufficient for closed-domain tasks. In this paper, we propose Minimal Dictionary Language (MDL): a simple language architecture which allows users to express their needs through certain basic syntax. For the pilot study, we selected Enron email open dataset[2] for our experimental use and apply MDL as the language for email retrieval task. We also built a front-end search interface by Python Flask and Vue.js for test and evaluation purposes.

Abstract: This application provides a transmission absorbing structure and an antenna in-band characteristics test system, relating to design of microwave antennas for radar and communication systems. The transmission absorbing structure includes a coupling feed structure provided with coupling slots for energy coupling with a to-be-tested antenna, two equivalent electric wall structures parallel to each other, and two equivalent magnetic wall structures parallel to each other. The two equivalent electric wall structures and the two equivalent magnetic wall structures together enclose the coupling feed structure, and form a transverse electromagnetic mode (TEM) waveguide. The system includes a vector network analyzer, a to-be-tested antenna electrically connected to the vector network analyzer, and a transmission absorbing structure.

Abstract: A method, corresponding apparatuses, and a non-transitory computer readable medium for image processing are provided. A method comprises selecting at least one reference point on a sensor illumination response curve in a sensor illumination response plane. The method further comprises determining at least one dominant color evaluation region in the sensor illumination response plane based on the at least one reference point. With the claimed inventions, color reproduction performance could be improved.

Abstract: An image processing method and an electronic apparatus are described. The image processing method is applied to an electronic apparatus and includes performing a photometry to current environment; determining a unit shutter speed according to a result of the photometry, a specified photosensitivity and a specified aperture value; and capturing, when a first operation is detected, a plurality of images sequentially by using the specified photosensitivity, the specified aperture value and the unit shutter speed and synthesizing the plurality of images until a second operation is detected.

Abstract: Techniques pertaining to dynamically regulating brightness of backlighting in display devices are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, the brightness dynamic range of a display device is adjusted according to the current ambient viewing conditions. In order words, the original brightness dynamic range of the display image is mapped to the brightness dynamic range suitable for human eyes under the current ambient viewing conditions. The brightness of the display image is corrected according to a histogram to enhance the contrast and details of the display image, thereby a high quality displayed image can be presented under the current ambient viewing conditions.
