Abstract: An apparatus for predicting performance of a wheel in a vehicle: includes a learning device that generates a latent space for a plurality of two-dimensional (2D) wheel images based on a convolutional autoencoder (CAE), extracts a predetermined number of the plurality of 2D wheel images from the latent space, and learns a dataset having the plurality of 2D wheel images and performance values corresponding to the plurality of 2D wheel images; and a controller that predicts performance for the plurality of 2D wheel images based on a performance prediction model obtained by the learning device.

Abstract: Determining, in a sample, the presence and/or amount of pluripotent stem cells. A sample suspected of containing one or more pluripotent stem cells is provided. The sample with a fluorescent compound is contacted under conditions that allow binding of the fluorescent compound to the pluripotent stem cells, where the fluorescent compound is a fluorescent compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The presence and/or amount of the pluripotent stem cells is determined by measuring the fluorescence of the cells following the contacting.
