  • Publication number: 20230417931
    Abstract: Aspects concern a method for correcting position estimates of a movable object. According to various embodiments, the method comprises establishing (1001) a hidden Markov model HMM, instance for a movable object and, for positioning times of a sequence of positioning times, receiving (1002) a position estimate from a positioning device of the movable object for a respective positioning time, determining (1003) a set of candidate path segments for the positioning time, determining (1004) likelihoods for the candidate path segments to correspond to the position estimate by application of the Viterbi algorithm to the HMM instance, expanding (1005) the HMM instance by the determined likelihoods for the candidate path segments for the positioning time and determining (1006) a corrected position estimate from a candidate path segment of the set of candidate path segments with the highest likelihood.

  • Publication number: 20140312000
    Abstract: An oxygen absorbing cap includes a hollow chamber, a removable top that is adapted to screw into or snap into the cap so as to close the hollow chamber and, when removed, to provide access to the hollow chamber, an oxygen absorber adapted to fit into the hollow chamber, and a waterproof breathable film (e.g., e-PTFE microporous film) located in the hollow chamber between the oxygen absorber and any liquid in the bottle and adapted to prevent the liquid in the bottle from contacting the oxygen absorber but allowing gases in the bottle to contact the oxygen absorber. The cap may also be used with a valve that limits the amount of air that contacts the liquid to the air that replaces the poured liquid or used with a pump that replaces the poured liquid with oxygen-free air so that air never contacts liquid in the bottle.
