  • Publication number: 20230067026
    Abstract: Automated data analytics techniques for non-tabular data sets may include methods and systems for (1) automatically developing models that perform tasks in the domains of computer vision, audio processing, speech processing, text processing, or natural language processing; (2) automatically developing models that analyze heterogeneous data sets containing image data and non-image data, and/or heterogeneous data sets containing tabular data and non-tabular data; (3) determining the importance of an image feature with respect to a modeling task, (4) explaining the value of a modeling target based at least in part on an image feature, and (5) detecting drift in image data. In some cases, multi-stage models may be developed, wherein a pre-trained feature extraction model extracts low-, mid-, high-, and/or highest-level features of non-tabular data, and a data analytics models uses those features (or features derived therefrom) to perform a data analytics task.

  • Publication number: 20230004796
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for developing and using neural network models. An example method of training a neural network includes: oscillating a learning rate while performing a preliminary training of a neural network; determining, based on the preliminary training, a number of training epochs to perform for a subsequent training session, and training the neural network using the determined number of training epochs. The systems and methods can be used to build neural network models that efficiently and accurately handle heterogeneous data.

  • Patent number: 9663936
    Abstract: A stormwater treatment unit comprising a containment vault having an inlet and an outlet separates debris from a flow of stormwater through the unit. The water flow is controlled by a wall which directs flow from the inlet to the outlet through a reservoir of fluid in the unit. Debris separation by density occurs whereby lighter elements such as oil float on top of the fluid and heavier elements such as sediment collect at the bottom of the unit or in collectors in the reservoir. A wire mesh, deflector, and/or ripple boards placed beneath the inlet further increase efficiency of the separation, and a vent pipe is placed above the outlet to release pressure built up in the outlet during operation. A stormwater treatment system and method of retrofitting an existing stormwater trunk line locates the stormwater treatment unit in an off-line position from an existing drainage trunk line.

  • Publication number: 20160001201
    Abstract: A portable fluid treatment apparatus includes a container with an interior wall between the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe which defines a bottom space between the bottom of the wall and the bottom interior surface of the container. A series of collectors in the container direct the flow of the inlet fluid and promote sedimentation from the fluid. The inlet fluid flows under the wall and up to a discharge pipe equipped with a vent. Multiple sedimentation units are connected together in series and mounted on a trailer for transport to a construction site.

  • Patent number: 4662620
    Abstract: To provide for transfer of folded products, such as folded printed sheets received from a printing machine, between storage bins and a conveyor transport system, transport sheets which, at least in part, are magnetizable, are retained in the storage bins; a transfer element (9) in form of an endless elongated belt or the like has electromagnets secured thereto which are selectively energized to pick up the transfer sheets. The transfer element or belt is guided in a path past a delivery end (7") of a storage holder, then into the path of the transport system (2, 3) for transfer of folded products (1) from or to the sheets, and return of the sheets to a receiving end of the storage bin, at which point the magnets are deenergized to release the sheets into the bin, and can continue to travel--while deenergized--in an endless path for subsequent pick-up of sheets.

  • Patent number: 4509733
    Abstract: To provide for threading of paper webs to a folding apparatus (140), a plurality of paper webs (1-8; 77-84) are fed from respectively opposite sides to a plurality of deflection rollers directing the paper webs in a vertical combining plane (9). The deflection rollers are positioned in vertically staggered arrangement. The paper webs are positively fed by transport rollers (26-29; 53-56) or transport belts (110-113; 128-130), located on respective carrier plates (18, 19; 93, 94) which are movable towards or away from the combining plane and on which the transport rollers or belts are located, staggered, between the deflection rollers on the same side and so as to engage the deflection rollers on the other side of the combining plane, to provide for positive drive of paper webs and feeding to the folding apparatus (140) during threading, or upon tearing of a web, but permitting withdrawal laterally upon full-speed operation of the paper handling apparatus, for example the folder.
