Abstract

EAST Articulated Inspection Arm (AIA) robot is being mutually developed by ASIPP and CEA-IRFM for remote handling maintenance. It will permit remote visual inspection and to pick up small fragments inside the EAST tokamak vacuum vessel during experiments. Considering storage and support for EAST AIA, a sealed cask system has been designed and manufactured, which can be connected to EAST device through a ϕ250 mm connection port with two flashboard valves. The system consists of a 10 m long vacuum vessel with a linear guide rail for storage, guiding and conditioning, two mobile wagons for support and some auxiliary systems for keeping suitable work conditions and measurement. Besides, a stainless steel shuttle has been developed to support AIA robot and assemble with the linear guide. It can push the robot into tokamak vessel and back to the storage cask with a gear-rack driving mechanism. This paper mainly presents the overall description of the system design and some obtained implementation progress.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
