  • Patent number: 11926400
    Abstract: A bottom touching assisting device suitable for deep-sea submersibles and an implementation method thereof are provided. Four support columns are arranged within a mounting box body at a bottom of a deep-sea submersible, the support columns and the mounting box body are connected in a sliding manner through sliders, and the support column is sleeved with a threaded sleeve in a threaded connection manner. In conjunction with a drive component and a pressing mechanism, smooth vertical movement of the support column is achieved when the threaded sleeve rotates. This allows a bottom end of the support column to extend from the mounting box body.

  • Publication number: 20230070000
    Abstract: A computer device acquires speech content. The device performs feature extraction on the speech content to obtain an intermediate feature. The intermediate feature is used for indicating an audio expression characteristic of the speech content. The device decodes the intermediate feature based on an attention mechanism to obtain a first word graph network. The device performs feature mapping on the intermediate feature based on pronunciation of the speech content to obtain a second word graph network. The device determines a recognition result of the speech content according to candidate word connection relationships indicated by the first word graph network and the second word graph network.

  • Patent number: 11450312
    Abstract: A speech recognition method includes: obtaining speech information; and determining beginning and ending positions of a candidate speech segment in the speech information by using a weighted finite state transducer (WFST) network. The candidate speech segment is identified as corresponding to a preset keyword. The method also includes clipping the candidate speech segment from the speech information according to the beginning and ending positions of the candidate speech segment; detecting whether the candidate speech segment includes a preset keyword by using a machine learning model; and determining, upon determining that the candidate speech segment comprises the preset keyword, that the speech information comprises the preset keyword.

  • Patent number: 11442295
    Abstract: A high-electron mobility transistor (HEMT) array terahertz wave modulator loaded in a waveguide is provided, which belongs to the technical field of electromagnetic functional devices and focuses on fast dynamic functional devices in the terahertz band. The device comprises a waveguide cavity and a modulation chip. The modulation chip comprises a semiconductor material substrate, a heterostructure material epitaxial layer, an artificial microstructure, and a socket circuit. The applied voltage controls the distribution change of the two-dimensional electron gas in the HEMT, which in turn controls the resonance mode conversion in the artificial microstructure, thereby control the transmission of electromagnetic waves in the waveguide. The modulator has a modulation depth of up to 96% and a modulation rate above 2 GHz.
