Gas pressure sintering of BN/Si3N4 wave-transparent material with Y2O3–MgO nanopowders addition
AbstractBN/Si3N4 ceramics performed as wave-transparent material in spacecraft were fabricated with boron nitride powders, silicon nitride powders and Y2O3–MgO nanopowders by gas pressure sintering at 1700°C under 6MPa in N2 atmosphere. The effects of Y2O3–MgO nanopowders on densification, phase evolution, microstructure and mechanical properties of BN/Si3N4 material were investigated. The addition of Y2O3–MgO nanopowders was found beneficial to the mechanical properties of BN/Si3N4 composites. The BN/Si3N4 ceramics with 8wt% Y2O3–MgO nanopowders showed a relative density of 80.2%, combining a fracture toughness of 4.6MPam1/2 with an acceptable flexural strength of 396.5MPa
UKnow: A Unified Knowledge Protocol for Common-Sense Reasoning and Vision-Language Pre-training
This work presents a unified knowledge protocol, called UKnow, which
facilitates knowledge-based studies from the perspective of data. Particularly
focusing on visual and linguistic modalities, we categorize data knowledge into
five unit types, namely, in-image, in-text, cross-image, cross-text, and
image-text. Following this protocol, we collect, from public international
news, a large-scale multimodal knowledge graph dataset that consists of
1,388,568 nodes (with 571,791 vision-related ones) and 3,673,817 triplets. The
dataset is also annotated with rich event tags, including 96 coarse labels and
9,185 fine labels, expanding its potential usage. To further verify that UKnow
can serve as a standard protocol, we set up an efficient pipeline to help
reorganize existing datasets under UKnow format. Finally, we benchmark the
performance of some widely-used baselines on the tasks of common-sense
reasoning and vision-language pre-training. Results on both our new dataset and
the reformatted public datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of UKnow in
knowledge organization and method evaluation. Code, dataset, conversion tool,
and baseline models will be made public
