Image ranking based on abstract concepts

A system and method for ranking images are provided. The method includes receiving a query comprising a semantic part and an abstract part, retrieving a set of images responsive to the semantic part of the query, and computing first scores for the retrieved images in the set of retrieved images. The first score of an image can be based on a relevance of that image to the semantic part of the query (and not to the abstract part of the query). The method further includes identifying a chromatic concept model from a set of chromatic concept models. This identification can be based on the abstract part of the query (and not on the semantic part of the query). The chromatic concept model includes an optionally-weighted set of colors expressed in a perceptually uniform color space. For retrieved images in the set of retrieved images, the method includes computing a chromatic image model based on colors of the image, the chromatic image model comprising a weighted set of colors expressed in the perceptually uniform color space and computing a comparison measure between the chromatic image model and the chromatic concept model. The retrieved images are scored with respective second scores that are based on the computed comparison measures. The retrieved images are ranked based on a combined score for a respective retrieved image which is a function of the first and second scores.

The invention discloses a coupled normal distribution probability demonstration instrument, improves the normal distribution demonstration instrument Galton pinboard, and is used for visually demonstrating normal distribution coupling relation. The construction scheme is as follows: regular hexagonal prisms form nails which are vertically adhered on front and back substrates, the adjacent surface of two adjacent regular hexagonal prisms and front and back substrates form clearance which constitutes a globule running channel, thus ensuring that the probability of globules falling into a left pipeline or a right pipeline after touching a nail is equal and the globules fall off along the channel and vertically touch the nail edge of the next layer. The substrate is provided with a globule feeding device, a regular hexagonal prism honeycomb array, globule catching tubes and a globule storage box; the globule feeding device is constructed into different globule feeding proportions of two paths of the globules according to binomial distribution principle, the regular hexagonal prism honeycomb array is formed by coupling two independent normal distribution models, and channel of the last layer are the globule catching tubes, all globule catching tubes form an array face which visually demonstrate coupled normal distribution probability graphics of the globules entering the regular hexagonal prism honeycomb array.

Hydrogen peroxide injection engine and combustion fuel supplamentation

This invention is a electronic and mechanical system that comprises of several sub-systems which carries out a new method of using different concentrations of self-propelled hydrogen peroxide-based solutions for direct propulsion in engines designed to use only gas pressure as energy or the system may act as a fuel supplement in existing combustion engines, by manipulating existing oil-based fuel engine's sensor signals to give the system the ability to make the engine run much leaner conditions, or inject less fuel while simultaneously injecting varying concentrations of hydrogen peroxide/water/alcohol solution, consequently saving gas by lowering intake temperatures to reduce the occurrence of knock and exploiting this reduction in temperature by reducing the amount of fuel needed by the engine at all engine running ranges. Standard mechanical pump fluid injection is not new and neither is pressurized propellant system designs, but this system becomes vary abstract when analyzing its method of using an essential, non-cryogenic, safe, self-propelled liquid monopropellant, in hydrogen peroxide; one of the best natural heat absorbers, in water, and releasing the potential of the hydrogen peroxide catalytic decomposition affect in a method of controlled decomposition pressurization within a feed-back loop while adding oxygen to combustion, and the water as a supplement to reduce excess heat in an engine. The system uses a self-pressurizing, concentration-monitoring, high purity stainless steel or aluminum peroxide storage tank which when used in conjunction with a metallic screen catalytic feed-back loop provides pressurized hydrogen peroxide-based solution to the injection solenoid, and when the solenoid is open allows pressurized water and oxygen to the injectors and into an engine. This system allows for a non-cryogenic, safe, non-polluting fuel source for many applications which will only produce water and oxygen, when used as hydrogen peroxide/water for a purely pressure engine, or significantly reduces fuel consumption in piggy-backed hybrid configurations using varying concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, water, alcohol and other fuels for use in the supplementation of combustion in existing fossil fuels engines. Retrofitting this system into existing gasoline, diesel and other fossil fuel engines will be very low cost, since it can intercept most of the factory sensor signals and send manipulated signals to the existing factory ECM inputs to allow the system to change the amount of injected standard fuel and adjust for the much lower intake air temperatures and extra oxygen provided by the decomposed hydrogen peroxide solution injection, while significantly reducing factory fuel system consumption the entire time that the system is actually injecting solution. No system developed has brought the benefits of all of these elements together in this manner. The level of sophistication and methods at which this system regulates itself, manipulates external fuel systems, decomposes hydrogen peroxide solutions into water and oxygen for self-pressurizing the system, and brings these elements together in a synergistic alliance with each other, all while injecting a precise amount of pressurized water and oxygen supplement to combustion events in an engine, are the truly abstract concepts behind this system. Combined with the system's easy adaptability and upgradeability should give a complete insight into the truly abstract design and methodology of this system.
