Abstract: A propulsion assembly includes a first torque source coupled with a first shaft and a second torque source coupled with a second shaft. A coupler selectively couples the first and second torque sources. When the first and second torque sources are coupled via the coupler, in response to a command to decouple the first torque source, an unloading operation is performed to decrease the torque output provided by the first torque source to a threshold, and when reached, the first shaft is decoupled from the coupler. When the first torque source is coupled with the coupler but the second torque source is not, in response to a command to couple the second torque source, a speed matching operation is performed to increase the speed of the second shaft to match a speed of the first shaft, and when the speeds are matched, the second shaft is coupled to the coupler.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to providing intelligent alerting and automation for marketing analytics software. In implementation, intelligent alerting is initiated by a user, which enables deep learning models to analyze various data patterns. Intelligent alerting learns about preferences and data consumption patterns of the user with marketing analytics software. Intelligent alerting also accounts for and learns from any manually created alerts set up by the user and/or alerts created automatically by anomaly detection. Intelligent alerting analyzes all other users within the organization of the user to find similar users based on their consumption patterns. An on-demand game may be provided to the user to determine the criticality of one metric change over another. This enables intelligent alerting to automatically provide alerts which pass a critical threshold of importance to the user and context to help the user understand why a metric changes in a significant way.
