YOLOv6: A Single-Stage Object Detection Framework for Industrial Applications
For years, the YOLO series has been the de facto industry-level standard for
efficient object detection. The YOLO community has prospered overwhelmingly to
enrich its use in a multitude of hardware platforms and abundant scenarios. In
this technical report, we strive to push its limits to the next level, stepping
forward with an unwavering mindset for industry application.
Considering the diverse requirements for speed and accuracy in the real
environment, we extensively examine the up-to-date object detection
advancements either from industry or academia. Specifically, we heavily
assimilate ideas from recent network design, training strategies, testing
techniques, quantization, and optimization methods. On top of this, we
integrate our thoughts and practice to build a suite of deployment-ready
networks at various scales to accommodate diversified use cases. With the
generous permission of YOLO authors, we name it YOLOv6. We also express our
warm welcome to users and contributors for further enhancement. For a glimpse
of performance, our YOLOv6-N hits 35.9% AP on the COCO dataset at a throughput
of 1234 FPS on an NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU. YOLOv6-S strikes 43.5% AP at 495 FPS,
outperforming other mainstream detectors at the same scale~(YOLOv5-S, YOLOX-S,
and PPYOLOE-S). Our quantized version of YOLOv6-S even brings a new
state-of-the-art 43.3% AP at 869 FPS. Furthermore, YOLOv6-M/L also achieves
better accuracy performance (i.e., 49.5%/52.3%) than other detectors with a
similar inference speed. We carefully conducted experiments to validate the
effectiveness of each component. Our code is made available at

A Potentiometric Formaldehyde Biosensor Based on Immobilization of Alcohol Oxidase on Acryloxysuccinimide-modified Acrylic Microspheres
A new alcohol oxidase (AOX) enzyme-based formaldehyde biosensor based on acrylic microspheres has been developed. Hydrophobic poly(n-butyl acrylate-N-acryloxy-succinimide) [poly(nBA-NAS)] microspheres, an enzyme immobilization matrix, was synthesized using photopolymerization in an emulsion form. AOX-poly(nBA-NAS) microspheres were deposited on a pH transducer made from a layer of photocured and self-plasticized polyacrylate membrane with an entrapped pH ionophore coated on a Ag/AgCl screen printed electrode (SPE). Oxidation of formaldehyde by the immobilized AOX resulted in the production of protons, which can be determined via the pH transducer. Effects of buffer concentrations, pH and different amount of immobilization matrix towards the biosensor’s analytical performance were investigated. The formaldehyde biosensor exhibited a dynamic linear response range to formaldehyde from 0.3–316.2 mM and a sensitivity of 59.41 ± 0.66 mV/decade (R2 = 0.9776, n = 3). The lower detection limit of the biosensor was 0.3 mM, while reproducibility and repeatability were 3.16% RSD (relative standard deviation) and 1.11% RSD, respectively (n = 3). The use of acrylic microspheres in the potentiometric formaldehyde biosensor improved the biosensor’s performance in terms of response time, linear response range and long term stability when compared with thick film immobilization methods
Developmental changes in the role of different metalinguistic awareness skills in Chinese reading acquisition from preschool to third grade

The aim of the study was to examine how each of these metalinguistic awareness skills would exert their influence on the success of reading in Chinese with age. The results showed that all three metalinguistic awareness skills significantly predicted reading success. It further revealed that orthographic awareness played a dominant role in the early stages of reading acquisition, and its influence decreased with age, while the opposite was true for the contribution of morphological awareness. The results were in stark contrast with studies in English, where phonological awareness is typically shown as the single most potent metalinguistic awareness factor in literacy acquisition. In order to account for the current data, a three-stage model of reading acquisition in Chinese is discussed.National Natural Science Foundation of China and Knowledge Innovation Program of the
