Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying and accurately monitoring evaporation from casks storing high value liquor are presented herein. A Cask Identification and Evaporation Monitoring (CIEM) system includes instrumentation to identify cask location within a high volume storage facility and monitor loss of content from each cask. The resulting data is communicated to a CIEM tracking server for storage and further analysis. The CIEM tracking server identifies excessive short term losses, e.g., leaks, arising anywhere in the storage facility. In addition, the CIEM tracking server identifies long term loss trends. The long term loss trends are enable data-driven management of the cask conditioning process, including tasks such as scheduling of cask rotation within the storage facility, bottling, etc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyethylene composition comprising a base resin comprising a low molecular weight ethylene polymer component and a high molecular weight ethylene polymer component, wherein the high molecular weight ethylene polymer component has a higher weight average molecular weight than the low molecular weight ethylene polymer component, wherein the base resin has a density of at least 958.0 kg/m3, and the polyethylene composition a melt flow rate MFR2 (190° C., 2.16 kg) of from 0.50 to 0.80 g/10 min and a molecular weight distribution being the ratio of the weight average molecular weight and the number average molecular weight, Mw/Mn, of from 10.0 to 15.0, a process for producing said polyethylene composition, an article comprising said polyethylene composition and the use of said polyethylene composition for the production of a film.

Abstract: Systems and methods for transcoding media content are disclosed. In some embodiments, the method includes obtaining a transcoded media content that is transcoded from an uploaded media content. The method includes determining a plurality of degradation metric values corresponding to the transcoded media content based on the uploaded media content and the transcoded media content, each degradation metric value corresponding to a different degradation metric type. The method includes mapping each degradation metric value to a respective calibrated score to obtain a plurality of calibrated scores. The method includes determining an aggregated quality score of the transcoded media content based on the plurality of calibrated scores and an exponential weighting function. The exponential weighting function exponentiates each of the calibrated scores by a respective weighting exponent and aggregates the exponentiated calibrated scores.
