    摘要: A microscope device includes a probe having a dielectric material with a first side and a second side. First and second electrodes are disposed on the first side of the dielectric material. A nanotube connects the first and second electrodes. A gate electrode is disposed on the second side (e.g., backside) of the dielectric material. The device includes a stage adapted for holding a sample. The stage and probe are moveable with respect to one another such that the sample can be brought in close proximity to the nanotube. The device further includes current measurement circuitry for measuring current (e.g., Random Telegraph Signals) passing through the nanotube. The microscope device is able to identify and characterize single defects on the molecular or atomic scale. The probe device may be combined with spin resonance and/or optical systems such that the detection/mapping/manipulate of single spin and single photon could be achieved.

    摘要: The techniques described herein provide tools that summarize a dataset by creating a final set of segments that, when visually presented via a histogram or other data presentation tool, show the distribution of at least a portion of the data. To create the final set of segments, the techniques described herein may collect or receive a dataset with distinct values, and divide the dataset into a number of segments that is less than or equal to a segment presentation threshold (e.g., ten segments). After creating the final set of segments, the techniques may configure and/or present data visualizations, such as histograms, for the created segments so that an observer is provided with a good viewing experience.

    摘要: The invention relates to the technical field of lithium-ion batteries, in particular to a method for estimating the state of charge of a lithium-ion battery. The method includes: charging a lithium-ion battery, recording multiple groups of ampere-hour integral values, and states of charge and voltage values corresponding to the ampere-hour integral values; taking the maximum value in the multiple groups of ampere-hour integral values as the first ampere-hour integral value, the state of charge corresponding to the first ampere-hour integral value as the first state of charge, and the voltage value corresponding to the first ampere-hour integral value as the first voltage value; monitoring the lithium-ion battery in real time, recording a real-time second ampere-hour integral value and a second voltage value, obtaining a second state of charge by an ampere-hour measuring method; and if the second voltage value is consistent with the first voltage value and the second state of charge is inconsistent with the first state of charge, replacing the second state of charge with the first state of charge. The invention increases the reliable evidence for judging the online equalization of the battery pack and most importantly avoids the situation where the state of charge of the battery can be corrected only on condition that the battery pack works at the extreme state of charge, and lowers the influences of the full charge and discharge on the lifetime of the battery.

    摘要: Multi-step statistical modeling in one embodiment of the present disclosure enables anomaly detection, forecasting and/or root cause analysis of the energy consumption for a portfolio of buildings using multi-step statistical modeling. In one aspect, energy consumption data associated with a building, building characteristic data associated with the building, building operation and activities data associated with the building, and weather data are used to generate a variable based degree model. A base load factor, a heating coefficient and a cooling coefficient associated with the building and an error term are determined from the variable based degree model and used to generate a plurality of multivariate regression models. A time series model is generated for the error term to model seasonal factors which reflect monthly dependence on energy use and an auto-regressive integrated moving average model (ARIMA) which reflects temporal dependent patterns of the energy use.
