High-Quality Text-to-Image Generation Using High-Detail Feature-Preserving Network by Wei-Yen Hsu, Jing-Wen Lin

“…This is because these methods mainly focus on extracting features from images and text, using only conventional residual blocks for post-extraction feature processing. This results in the loss of features, greatly reducing the quality of the generated images and necessitating more resources for feature calculation, which will severely limit the use and application of optical devices such as cameras and smartphones. …”

The Normal Force Characteristic of a Novel Magnetorheological Elastomer Based on Butadiene Rubber Matrix Compounded with the Self-Fabricated Silly Putty by Fei Guo, Chengbin Du, Guojun Yu

“…The results demonstrated that the normal force increased with the compression rate and the mass fraction of boron-silicon copolymer added to the composite matrix due to the formation of the more and more B-O cross bonds which could be blocked in the C-C cross-linked network of BR. Meanwhile, the magneto-induced normal force was positively correlated with the applied magnetic field strength and the compression strain due to the decreased gap between the centers of soft magnetic particles and the increased particle intensity of magnetization. …”
