Key technologies of AI in customer service system by Zheng WANG, Hua REN, Xuhai LU

“…In the customer service system structure,manual seats,work order processing and other links require a lot of manual operations and participation,the cost is high,the efficiency is relatively low,and there will still be a certain percentage of problems and failures that can’t be found and resolved.In the customer service system,the introduction of artificial intelligence technology can solve these problems to a certain extent,reduce costs and improve the overall efficiency and effectiveness of customer service.The key technologies which could be applied to the customer service system in AI were analyzed,including speech recognition,speech synthesis,and natural language processing.The application of new technology in the customer service system of the operator was discussed.The effect in practical application was illustrated by an example.…”

A novel low cost bidirectional transmission coherent passive optical network system by Shunli QIU, Yi YANG, Rong HU

“…Based on the coherent optical reception technology,a cost-effective structure for the optical network unit (ONU) transceivers in ultra-dense wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network using a single directly modulated laser (DML)was proposed.To reduce the number of required light sources,only one DML was used in both upstream and downstream links.By experimental investigations,the impacts of driving amplitude and bias current on DML's performance were analyzed.Meanwhile,the impact of frequency spacing between upstream and downstream signal and the Rayleigh backscattering interference on system performance were investigated.The method has better performance of system receiving and can effectively reduce the cost and complexity of coherent passive optical network system.…”

Novel shortcut strategies in copositivity detection: Decomposition for quicker positive certificates by Johannes Zischg, Immanuel Bomze

“…In this paper, we present novel promising shortcut strategies to exploit favorable instances in a systematic way, using decomposition strategies based upon the idea to allow for overlapping, smaller blocks, profiting from a beneficial sign structure of the entries of the given matrix. The working hypothesis of this approach is the common empirical observation in the community that for detection of copositivity, a negative certificate is easier to obtain than a positive one. …”

Neutrino Mass from Cosmology by Julien Lesgourgues, Sergio Pastor

“…We show how the analysis of current cosmological observations, such as the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background or the distribution of large-scale structure, provides an upper bound on the sum of neutrino masses of order 1 eV or less, with very good perspectives from future cosmological measurements which are expected to be sensitive to neutrino masses well into the sub-eV range.…”
