Abstract: In one embodiment, a diagnostic device determines signal strengths of two antennas of a multi-antenna device. When the signal strength of each of the two antennas is unacceptable, the diagnostic device provides a recommendation to adjust each of the two antennas. Alternatively, when the signal strength of a first antenna of the two antennas is unacceptable while the signal strength of a second antenna of the two antennas is acceptable, the diagnostic device provides a recommendation to adjust the first antenna. However, when the signal strength of each of the two antennas is acceptable, but a difference between the signal strength of a first antenna and a second antenna of the two antennas is greater than a threshold, then the diagnostic device determines a weaker antenna with weaker signal strength between the first antenna and the second antenna, and provides a recommendation to adjust the weaker antenna.

A plurality of maximum likelihood vehicle matrices may be generated by correlating the plurality of CIRs to the corpus of reference CIRs relating to the plurality of vehicle states. The vehicle state may then be determined by processing the plurality of peak-based features and correlation-based features using the machine learning classification algorithm.

Abstract: Methods for automatic and intelligent incident routing are performed by systems and apparatuses. The methods intelligently optimize routing of incidents to correct owners from a pool of many possible owners by utilizing learning models and algorithms based on feature vectors. Users provide information related to incidents of services or systems. The information is cleaned and featurized to generate a feature vector for the incident. The systems and apparatuses intelligently and automatically determine sets of candidate recipients based on outputs of algorithms, e.g., machine learning algorithms, such as classifiers using the feature vectors as inputs. Classifiers may utilize models or algorithms trained with featurizations used for feature vectors. Sets of candidate recipients are provided to users for selection of a recipient for the information from the set of candidate recipients instead of from all the possible recipients.
