Abstract: The I-DID system is strengths-weaknesses based assessment and intervention for dyslexia, particularly for dyslexia in bilingual users. The system includes a database comprising a large-scale profile of a plurality of user performance sets across five domains: language and literacy, cognition, creativity, music, and social-emotional skills. A machine learning-based subgroup generator creates subgroups to provide individualized intervention for each of the subgroups, such that the users in the different subgroups receive different interventions. The interventions comprise training in one or more domain-general cognitive and music skills, or language-specific listening, speaking, reading, writing, or combinations thereof. The combined theory-and data-driven approach of the system integrates multiple layers of online multifaceted assessments and classifies strength-weakness profiles of bilingual users for self-managed, personalized game-based intervention. The system promotes affordability, efficiency, equality and sustainability of clinical diagnosis and treatment for bilingual users along with users growing up in a multilingual environment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ultrasensitive rapid antigen detection kit for detecting N protein from SARS-CoV-2 virus in a sample, and methods for detecting N protein. The kit includes a sample collector, a collection and enrichment tube and a rapid antigen detection component with a test strip. The collection and enrichment tube contains a first part containing lyophilized ATPS reagents and a second part containing a lysis buffer. The sample is mixed with the lyophilized ATPS reagents and the lysis buffer to form a mixture. The enrichment is realized by concentrating the target analyte into one of the two phases formed by ATPS.

Abstract: A battery charging system determines a current condition of a battery in real time and dynamically determine a threshold voltage for controlling a charging mode of the battery based on the current battery condition. The battery charging system charges the battery using a constant current (CC) mode or constant voltage (CV) mode based on the battery voltage and the dynamically determined threshold voltage. The battery charging system can determine the voltage and current of the battery in real time without receiving information on the battery from the power receiving side of the battery charging system.

Abstract: A switchable triboelectric nanogenerator (s-TENG) which obtains energy by utilizing the electrostatic potential between water droplets and frictional surfaces. The s-TENG device includes an ITO film substrate as an electrode, a SU-8 mold grid located on the ITO film substrate and forming an array of air gaps as an air breakdown region, and a FEP film on the SU-8 mold grid as the surface of the friction layer. A water source is variably positioned at a distance from and at an angle to the s-TENG device so that water droplets contact the friction layer, so that direct current is obtained without the use of a rectifier due to electrostatic induction causing break down in the air breakdown region of the SU-8 mold grid.

Abstract: A method is provided for remotely assuring the quality and transportation of offsite construction components. The method involves placing a code on the module, where the code contains identity information about the module. Then the code is scanned to obtain the identity information and to upload it to a blockchain data storage facility. Access is allowed to the identity information in the blockchain data storage facility to relevant parties for the purpose of remotely inspecting the module to verify its quality. Based on this verification the module may be delivered to a transportation facility for transport. During transport location information about the module is collected and uploading it to blockchain data storage facility. Second access is allowed to the location information stored in the blockchain data storage facility to allow relevant parties to remotely understand the transportation situation of the module.
