Publication number: 20240376414Abstract: An organic-waste-recycling apparatus for fast formation of compost includes a processing barrel, a grinding device, a control device, a stirring device, and a guiding device. The processing barrel has a first feeding port and a second feeding port, a mixing room, and an output. To-be-processed objects are fed into the mixing room through the first feeding port or the second feeding port. The grinding device is between the first feeding port and the mixing room. The control device adjusts the temperature and the humidity in the mixing room. The stirring device rolls and blends the to-be-processed objects in the mixing room so that the to-be-processed objects are heated evenly. The guiding device guides the water vapor generated in the mixing room back to the mixing room. The apparatus decomposes and turns organic waste into organic carbon fertilizer that has economic value in an effective and efficient way.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2023Publication date: November 14, 2024Inventors: CHIEN-MING HUANG, YU-KAI HUANG

Patent number: 12136155Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method to disentangle linear-encoded facial semantics from facial images without external supervision. The method uses linear regression and sparse representation learning concepts to make the disentangled latent representations easily interpreted and manipulated. Generated facial images are decomposed into multiple semantic features and latent representations are extracted to capture interpretable facial semantics. The semantic features may be manipulated to synthesize photorealistic facial images by sampling along vectors representing the semantic features, thereby changing the associate semantics.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2022Date of Patent: November 5, 2024Assignee: Carnegie Mellon UniversityInventors: Yutong Zheng, Marios Savvides, Yu Kai Huang
