Abstract: A sintering furnace can have a housing, one or more heating elements, and a conveying assembly. Each heating element can be disposed within the housing and can subject a heating zone to a thermal shock temperature profile. A substrate with one or more precursors thereon can be moved by the conveying assembly through an inlet of the housing to the heating zone, where it is subjected to a first temperature of at least 500° C. for a first time period. The conveying assembly can then move the substrate with one or more sintered materials thereon from the heating zone and through an outlet of the housing.

Abstract: An image processing method includes obtaining a sample image and a generative adversarial network (GAN), including a generation network and an adversarial network, and performing style conversion on the sample image, to obtain a reference image. The method further includes performing global style recognition on the reference image, to determine a global style loss between the reference image and the sample image, and performing image content recognition on the reference image and the sample image, to determine a content loss between the reference image and the sample image. The method also includes performing local style recognition on the reference image and the sample image, to determine a local style loss of the reference image and a local style loss of the sample image, training the generation network to obtain a trained generation network, and performing style conversion on a to-be-processed image by using the trained generation network.
