  • Patent number: 11960994
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for artificial intelligence-based HDRL planning and control for coordinating a team of platforms includes implementing a global planning layer for determining a collective goal and determining, by applying at least one machine learning process, at least one respective platform goal to be achieved by at least one platform, implementing a platform planning layer for determining, by applying at least one machine learning process, at least one respective action to be performed by the at least one of the platforms to achieve the respective platform goal, and implementing a platform control layer for determining at least one respective function to be performed by the at least one of the platforms. In the method, apparatus and system despite the fact that information is shared between at least two of the layers, the global planning layer, the platform planning layer, and the platform control layer are trained separately.

  • Patent number: 11719601
    Abstract: A detector capable of detecting bearing faults in advance is disclosed. The detector includes a microprocessor with an input terminal connected to a power supply and an output terminal connected to a detection information output device. A resonance enhanced piezoelectric sensor is provided. A sensor trigger detection circuit is electrically connected between the sensor and the microprocessor. An input terminal of the sensor trigger detection circuit is connected in parallel with a sensor signal selection circuit. The sensor signal selection circuit is connected in series with a sensor signal processing circuit. An output terminal of the sensor signal processing circuit is connected in series with a programmable gain circuit. The programmable gain circuit is connected to the microprocessor. The sensor trigger detection circuit, the sensor signal selection circuit, the sensor signal processing circuit, and the programmable gain circuit are respectively connected to the power supply.

  • Publication number: 20230044619
    Abstract: A system and method for mining social media signals and cues i) created by a user (for example, a customer) and/or ii) to which the user is exposed (the “data”), and for processing that data as it relates to a service (including a fee or subscription-based service), in order to predict the user's predisposition or likelihood to either leave the subscription or the service or reduce his/her engagement with the subscription or the service.
