Abstract: A ceramic material includes zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA), which is doped with zinc ions and other metal ions, in which the other metal ions are chromium (Cr) ions, titanium (Ti) ions, gadolinium (Gd) ions, manganese (Mn) ions, cobalt (Co) ions, iron (Fe) ions, or a combination thereof. The ceramic material may have a hardness of 1600 Hv10 to 2200 Hv10 and a bending strength of 600 MPa to 645 MPa. The ceramic material can be used as wire bonding capillary.

Abstract: Provided are improved end-to-end self-supervised pre-training frameworks that leverage a combination of contrastive and masked modeling loss terms. In particular, the present disclosure provides framework that combines contrastive learning and masked modeling, where the former trains the model to discretize input data (e.g., continuous signals such as continuous speech signals) into a finite set of discriminative tokens, and the latter trains the model to learn contextualized representations via solving a masked prediction task consuming the discretized tokens. In contrast to certain existing masked modeling-based pre-training frameworks which rely on an iterative re-clustering and re-training process or other existing frameworks which concatenate two separately trained modules, the proposed framework can enable a model to be optimized in an end-to-end fashion by solving the two self-supervised tasks (the contrastive task and masked modeling) simultaneously.

Abstract: A semiconductor package including a ring structure with one or more indents and a method of forming are provided. The semiconductor package may include a substrate, a first package component bonded to the substrate, wherein the first package component may include a first semiconductor die, a ring structure attached to the substrate, wherein the ring structure may encircle the first package component in a top view, and a lid structure attached to the ring structure. The ring structure may include a first segment, extending along a first edge of the substrate, and a second segment, extending along a second edge of the substrate. The first segment and the second segment may meet at a first corner of the ring structure, and a first indent of the ring structure may be disposed at the first corner of the ring structure.

Abstract: A vehicle device setting method including: capturing, by an image sensing unit, a first image frame; recognizing a user ID according to the first image frame; showing ID information of the recognized user ID on a screen or by a speaker; capturing a second image frame; generating a confirm signal when a first user expression is recognized by calculating an expression feature in the second image frame and comparing the recognized expression feature with stored expression data associated with a predetermined user expression to confirm whether the recognized user ID is correct or not according to the second image frame captured after the ID information is shown; controlling an electronic device according to the confirm signal; and entering a data update mode instructed by the user and updating setting information of the electronic device by current electronic device setting according to a saving signal generated by confirming a second user expression in a third image frame captured after the user ID is confirmed

Abstract: An optoelectronic package and a method for producing the optoelectronic package are provided. The optoelectronic package includes a carrier, a photonic device, a first encapsulant and a second encapsulant. The photonic device is disposed on the carrier.
