Abstract:
In a binocular steroscopic scanning radiographic imaging method, X-rays emitted by the same radiation source are used. The X-rays pass through a double-slit collimator to form two X-ray beam sectors, which are symmetric or asymmetric and have an angle between them. The X-ray beam sectors, after penetrating through an object under detection, are received by the left and right detector array, respectively, then converted into electric signals to be inputted to the respective image acquisition systems, and received by a computer processing system for image processing and displaying. A system corresponding to the method comprises a radiation source, a beam controller, two mutually connected arms of detector arrays, image acquisition systems connected respectively to each of the detector arrays and a computer processing system. The present invention can display the transmission images detected by each of the detector arrays as well as tomograms with different depth reconstructed from the transmission images according to the principle of parallax. The present invention is convenient, fast in detection and realizes with low cost the recognition of objects of different depths.
Abstract:
A system and method for aggressive loop parallelization using speculative execution is disclosed. The method may include transforming code of a target application for concurrent execution, which may include adding an instruction to create a global address table entry for each store operation on which a load operation of a different loop iteration is dependent. The method may include replacing a standard load instruction with a special instruction configured to determine if an operand address of the load matches an operand address in one of the global address table entries. Another special instruction may remove a table entry following execution of the corresponding store operation. If an operand address of a load of a currently executing thread matches an operand address in the global address table, the method may include setting a checkpoint, completing execution of the thread in a pre-fetch mode, and re-executing the thread from the checkpoint.
Abstract:
A detection apparatus and method for an ion migration spectrum include acquiring an ion migration spectrum of pure carrier gas and an ion migration spectrum of carrier gas containing a test substance sample and performing differential process on the ion migration spectrum of the pure carrier gas and the ion migration spectrum of the carrier gas containing the test substance sample to acquire a differential spectrum. The value of a characteristic peak of the differential spectrum represents properties of the sample of substances. The method avoids interferences on the migration spectrum from interference sources of the apparatus itself, thereby improving detection sensitivity and accuracy of the ion migration spectrum, and migration spectrum shift caused by variations in the environmental conditions can be found and corrected through the differential process on the migration spectrum of the pure carrier gas, thereby achieving self-stableness and self-correction of the ion migration spectrometer.

The present invention discloses a filter device. The filter device comprises a housing with an air inlet and an filtered air outlet; a high voltage electric field region provided between two ends of the housing, wherein the direction of the electric field is perpendicular to the direction along which the air is introduced into the housing; an ionization source provided in the electric field region to ionize the ionizable pollutants present in the air introduced from the air inlet and form the resultant ionized pollutants which will move towards both ends of the housing under the influence of the electric field; and a discharging device for discharging the ionized pollutants which have arrived at the ends of the housing out of the filter device. The present invention also relates to a filtering method of using the filter device, and a trace detector. The filter device can be used to ionize the ionizable interferents existed in the air, separate the ionized interferents from the other components of the air under the influence of the electric field, and discharge the interferent out of the filter device, thereby reducing the consumption of the consumables or even eliminating the need for consumables. The filter device in accordance with the present invention is applicable to a trace detector based on ion mobility technology for the detection of trace amounts of substances.
Abstract:
A system and method are configured to apply region level optimizations to a selected region of source code rather than loop level optimizations to a loop or loop nest. The region may include an outer loop, a plurality of inner loops and at least one control code. If the region includes an exceptional control flow statement and/or a procedure call, speculative region-level multi-versioning may be applied.

A security inspection door comprising a narcotic drug/explosive detecting subsystem, a radioactive substance detecting subsystem and a metal detecting subsystem which are provided in a tank body is disclosed, wherein electromagnetic radiation shields are respectively provided around the three detecting subsystems, so that they are isolated from one another and are not interfered with one another. The three detecting subsystems are combined together to form a novel security inspection door, so the narcotic drugs/the explosives, the radioactive substances and the dangerous metal articles can be detected at the same time. Further, electromagnetic radiation shields are respectively provided around the three detecting subsystems, so that the three detecting subsystems are isolated from one another and are not interfered with one another, and thus, the inspection reliability and the inspection accuracy are improved.
