  • Publication number: 20220343155
    Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, non-transitory computer readable storage media, and systems that intelligently generate and modify schedules of task sequences utilizing a graph neural network and/or reinforcement learning model. For example, the disclosed system utilizes a graph neural network to generate performance efficiency scores indicating predicted performances of the sets of tasks. Additionally, the disclosed systems utilizes the performance efficiency scores to rank sets of tasks and then determine a schedule including an ordered sequence of tasks. Furthermore, disclosed system generates modified schedules in response to detecting a modification to the schedule. For example, the disclosed system utilizes a reinforcement learning model to provide recommendations of new tasks or task sequences deviating from the schedule in the event of an interruption. The disclosed system also utilizes the reinforcement learning model to learn from user choices to inform future scheduling of tasks.

  • Patent number: 11476432
    Abstract: Provided are an inverted thick 2D hybrid perovskite solar cell insensitive to film thickness and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials. The solar cell adopts a 2D hybrid perovskite thick-film material as a light absorption layer having thickness in a range of 500-800 nm, which is conducive to the full absorption of sunlight. The thick-film film material can be deposited from a precursor solution added with guanidine hydroiodide, and is composed of large grains growing along the thickness direction. The solar cell with an inverted structure prepared by using the thick-film material as a light absorption layer has an efficiency fluctuation less than 5% in a film thickness range of 500-800 nm. This is of great value for the preparation of high-performance hybrid perovskite solar cells by a large-area solution method.

  • Publication number: 20220284220
    Abstract: In implementations for highlight video generated with adaptable multimodal customization, a multimodal detection system tracks activities based on poses and faces of persons depicted in video clips of video content. The system determines a pose highlight score and a face highlight score for each of the video clips that depict at least one person, the highlight scores representing a relative level of the interest in an activity depicted in a video clip. The system also determines pose-based emotion features for each of the video clips. The system can detect actions based on the activities of the persons depicted in the video clips, and detect emotions exhibited by the persons depicted in the video clips. The system can receive input selections of actions and emotions, and filter the video clips based on the selected actions and emotions. The system can then generate a highlight video of ranked and filtered video clips.

  • Publication number: 20220190356
    Abstract: Atomically dispersed platinum-group metal-free catalyst and method for synthesizing the same. According to one embodiment, the catalyst is made by a method in which, in a first step, a metal oxide/zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF) composite is formed by combining (i) nanoparticles of an oxide of at least one of iron, cobalt, nickel, manganese, and copper, (ii) a hydrated zinc salt, and (iii) an imidazole. Then, in a second step, the metal oxide/ZIF composite is thermally activated, i.e., carbonized, to form an M-N—C catalyst. Thereafter, the M-N—C catalyst may be mixed with a quantity of ammonium chloride, and then the M-N—C/NH4Cl mixture may be pyrolyzed. The foregoing NH4Cl treatment may improve the intrinsic activity of the catalyst. Then, a thin layer of nitrogen-doped carbon may be added to NH4Cl-treated M-N—C catalyst by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Such CVD treatment may improve the stability of the catalyst.

  • Publication number: 20220108509
    Abstract: Generating images and videos depicting a human subject wearing textually defined attire is described. An image generation system receives a two-dimensional reference image depicting a person and a textual description describing target clothing in which the person is to be depicted as wearing. To maintain a personal identity of the person, the image generation system implements a generative model, trained using both discriminator loss and perceptual quality loss, which is configured to generate images from text. In some implementations, the image generation system is configured to train the generative model to output visually realistic images depicting the human subject in the target clothing. The image generation system is further configured to apply the trained generative model to process individual frames of a reference video depicting a person and output frames depicting the person wearing textually described target clothing.
