The method includes: acquiring an image of a marked test paper (S101); recognizing regions of respective questions in the marked test paper according to a pre-trained first region recognition model (S102); recognizing a question whose marking result is incorrect in the marked test paper as an incorrectly-answered question according to a pre-trained incorrectly-answered question recognition model (S103); and storing the region of the incorrectly-answered question in an incorrectly-answered question database to generate the collection of incorrectly-answered questions (S104). The above solution may solve the problem of low efficiency in generating the collection of incorrectly-answered questions in the prior art.

  • Patent number: 11210463
    Abstract: Proposed are concepts of transforming a spreadsheet (or set of spreadsheets) into a knowledge base for analysis and error detection. Such a concept may convert a spreadsheet into an abstracted model that facilitates error detection. For instance, by turning the semi-structured cell-based data representation into a structured abstract model, it may be possible to perform analysis and/or error detection that would otherwise not be possible with the existing cell-based tools.

  • Patent number: 11033598
    Abstract: A method for preventing or treating hearing loss includes administering a composition comprising an oat extract to a subject. The method may use avenanthramide or a derivative thereof an oat extract. The oat extract has an effect on hair cells of the cochlea, spinal ganglion cells, and angiocytes, and an effect of inhibiting occurrence of hearing loss and can be usefully used for preventing or treating hearing loss. In particular, since the oat extract is a natural product and has stability without cytotoxicity, the composition containing the oat extract as an active ingredient has a safety advantage for long-term use without side effects on the human body.

  • Patent number: 10832591
    Abstract: Mechanisms for training a human user to perform an operation and provided. The mechanisms generate a domain specific knowledge base comprising a set of entities and corresponding domain specific attributes and expand the domain specific knowledge base to include values for the domain specific attributes through an automated bootstrap learning process that performs natural language processing and analysis of natural language content using a set of pre-condition annotated action terms, thereby generating an expanded domain specific knowledge base. The mechanisms evaluate an input from another device identifying an action associated with an entity in the set of entities, based on a retrieved domain specific attribute value and the retrieved pre-condition annotation from the expanded domain specific knowledge base. The mechanisms output a notification to a user computing device indicating whether the input is correct or incorrect to thereby train a user associated with the user computing device.
