  • Publication number: 20210390455
    Abstract: The subject matter of this disclosure relates to systems and methods for monitoring and managing machine learning models and related data. Histogram structures can be used to aggregate streams of numerical data for storage and metric calculations. Drift in such data can be identified and monitored over time. When significant drift is detected and/or when model accuracy has deteriorated, models can be automatically refreshed with updated training data and/or replaced with one or more other models. A model controller is used to automate model monitoring and management activities across multiple prediction environments where models are deployed and prediction jobs are executed.

  • Publication number: 20080148620
    Abstract: A fish counting device for counting and recording up to a permissible limit of a regulated species of fish comprising an elongated, straight cord having opposite ends and a longitudinal axis; an attaching element disposed on an end of the cord; a keeper proximate the opposite end of the cord to provide a stop; a plurality of annular counting members having a passage and distally opposite axial ends that are received on the cord between the attaching element and the keeper. The total number of the counting members can be equal to the permissible limit of the regulated species of fish. When an individual fish is caught, a counting member can be moved by the angler along the longitudinal axis of the cord so that an axial end of the counting member abuts the axial end of an adjacent counting member such that the movement of the counting element will indicate when the permissible limit is reached.

  • Patent number: 7047631
    Abstract: A method for the automatable insertion or removal of an integrated circuit board is disclosed. One or more linear actuators or similar devices are coupled to one or more cards of an electronic device (e.g., a telecommunications switch or the like) by one or more brackets, to permit substantially automatic card withdrawal/insertion cycles. A controller is operably coupled to the actuators. The controller controls the actuators to operate through a plurality of cycles in a substantially unattended fashion. Measurement and recording or logging systems can measure the occurrence or duration of service disruptions and maintain a log of test results.

  • Patent number: 6182095
    Abstract: The invention features computer-based methods and apparatuses to automate document generation. The methods include user interaction to identify a collection of available modifiable text segments and user interaction to identify customization data. The identified text segments are used to form the package of interrelated documents and the customization data can be used to complete the identified text segments. The customized package of interrelated documents is automatically assembling based on the identified collection and customization data. The method may also include identifying a collection of information element questions that will be used to request information element data from a user. Interacting with a user to identify associations being between the collection of information element questions and a collection of available modifiable text segments.
