Abstract: A composite solution for enhancing induced disease resistance of lentinan (LNT) to a plant, a preparation method of the composite solution, and a method for enhancing induced disease resistance of LNT to a plant are provided. The composite solution for enhancing induced disease resistance of LNT to a plant includes: an LNT-containing solution and an SPc-containing solution, where SPc is a dendritic macromolecule functionalized by an amino functional group, and has a structural formula shown in formula I, where n=1 to 100. An LNT/SPc complex is produced in the composite solution. SPc spontaneously combines with LNT through hydrogen bonding, such that an agglomerate structure formed by LNT in an aqueous solution is broken and reduced to a nano-scale particle size, and a spherical particle is produced, which can significantly reduce a contact angle of the LNT aqueous solution, and promote the distribution and diffusion of LNT.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for vector-quantized image modeling using vision transformers and improved codebook handling. In particular, the present disclosure provides a Vector-quantized Image Modeling (VIM) approach that involves pretraining a machine learning model (e.g., Transformer model) to predict rasterized image tokens autoregressively. The discrete image tokens can be encoded from a learned Vision-Transformer-based VQGAN (example implementations of which can be referred to as ViT-VQGAN). The present disclosure proposes multiple improvements over vanilla VQGAN from architecture to codebook learning, yielding better efficiency and reconstruction fidelity. The improved ViT-VQGAN further improves vector-quantized image modeling tasks, including unconditional image generation, conditioned image generation (e.g., class-conditioned image generation), and unsupervised representation learning.

Abstract: A data intake and query system executes a search query at a first execution time for querying events having associated time stamps within a first time period characterized by a first start time and a first end time. The first start time is computed based upon a time indicated by reference time information stored prior to execution of the search query. The system determines whether execution of the search query completed successfully based upon a first search result obtained from executing the search query. If the first execution of the search query was not successful, the system computes for a second execution of the search query after the first execution, a second time period using the reference time information. The second execution is configured to query events with associated timestamps that fall within a second time period that includes the first time period and an additional time period.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to the design of a (good-to-person) robotics warehouse, and in particular to a warehouse layout model. The warehouse layout model is interposed between a warehouse map/location model containing concrete physical location data (e.g., QR codes), and an overlying warehouse management system generally configured to interact with a robotics system. The warehouse layout model defines basic elements such as •rackspace, •rackspace block, •lane, and •workstation. Those elements may in turn be arranged into basic patterns such as •storage area, •workstation area, •entry area, and others. The layout model also includes a set of basic traveling rules governing the movement of robots in relation to the elements and patterns. The layout model serves as a translator between the generalized warehouse management system, and the location/map model specific to a particular warehouse footprint. The warehouse layout model facilitates adapting the robotic system to changes as the warehouse expands and evolves.
