Abstract: A method for compact and flat bismuth metal preparation by electrolysis is provided. In the method, one or more of ?-naphthol, acacia, sulfonated and vulcanized alkylphenol ethoxylate and naphthol ethoxylate oxides are added to the acidic solution of bismuth methanesulfonate as additives, and the cathodic bismuth is obtained by electrolysis at 20-80° C. The method for bismuth metal preparation is simple and easy to promote, environment-friendly, and the obtained bismuth metal has a flat and compact surface and good plate formation effect.

Abstract: A system includes a Bayesian Spatiotemporal Graph Transformer (B-STAR) architecture that models spatial and temporal relationship of multiple agents under uncertainties. The system enables Multi-Agent Trajectory Prediction for safety-critical engineering applications, (e.g., autonomous driving and flight systems) and considers the impact of various sources, such as environmental conditions, pilot/controller behaviors, and potential conflicts with nearby aircraft. It is shown that B-STAR achieves state-of-the-art performance on the ETH/UCY pedestrian dataset with UQ competence.

Abstract: A machine-learning framework for multi-fidelity modeling provides three components: multi-fidelity data compiling, multi-fidelity perceptive field and convolution, and deep neural network for mapping. This framework captures and utilizes implicit relationships between any high-fidelity datum and all available low-fidelity data using a defined local perceptive field and convolution. First, the framework treats multi-fidelity data as image data and processes them using a CNN, which is very scalable to high dimensional data with more than two fidelities. Second, the flexibility of nonlinear mapping facilitates the multi-fidelity aggregation and does not need to assume specific relationships among multiple fidelities. Third, the framework does not assume that multi-fidelity data are at the same order or from the same physical mechanisms (e.g., assumptions are needed for some error estimation-based multi-fidelity model).
