Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for improving anomaly detection in timeseries datasets. Different machine learning models may be trained to process specific types of timeseries data efficiently and accurately. Thus, selecting a proper machine learning model for identifying anomalies in a specific set of timeseries data may greatly improve accuracy and efficiency of anomaly detection. Another way to improve anomaly detection is to process a multitude of timeseries datasets for a time period (e.g., 90 days) to detect anomalies from those timeseries datasets and then correlate those detected anomalies by generating an anomaly timeseries dataset and identifying anomalies within the anomaly timeseries dataset. Yet another way to improve anomaly detection is to divide a dataset into multiple datasets based on a type of anomaly detection requested.

Abstract: An exemplary lock apparatus generally includes a shackle, a crossbar, a lock device, a first bolt, and a trigger. The lock device has a locked state in which the lock device retains a spindle in a spindle locking position, and an unlocked state in which the lock device does not prevent movement of the spindle to a spindle unlocking position. The first bolt is engaged with the spindle such that movement of the spindle between the spindle locking position and the spindle unlocking position drives the first bolt between a first locking position and a first unlocking position. The trigger is movably mounted in the crossbar for movement between an engagement position, in which the trigger maintains the spindle in the spindle unlocking position, and a disengagement position, in which the spindle is operable to move to the spindle locking position.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method which outlines a process for conversion of CBD to a ?9-tetrahydrocannabinol (?9-THC) compound or derivative thereof involving treating a naturally produced CBD intermediate compound with an organoaluminum-based Lewis acid catalyst, under conditions effective to produce the ?9-tetrahydrocannabinol compound or derivative thereof at a relatively high concentration. The source of the CBD is from industrial hemp having less than 0.3% ?9-THC and extracting and purifying a CBD distillate or isolate or a combination thereof. This procedure will produce ?9-THC that is essentially free from any other cannabinoids other than some trace amounts of the initial CBD starting material, or about 95% ?9-THC and 2-4% CBD. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a process for further purification and enrichment of the ?9-THC using distillation and collecting an essentially pure fraction of ?9-THC using additional distillation or enrichment form of purification.

A computing environment is configured such that an application can access a service without specifying secrets. The secrets needed to access the service are obtained and stored in a credential store. The secrets can be obtained using the service mesh in a manner that isolates the application from the secrets.

Abstract: A method of making a homogeneous mixture of polyolefin solids and carbon solids without melting the polyolefin solids during the making. The method comprises applying acoustic energy at a frequency of from 20 to 100 hertz to a heterogeneous mixture comprising the polyolefin solids and the carbon solids for a period of time sufficient to substantially intermix the polyolefin solids and the carbon solids together while maintaining temperature of the heterogeneous mixture below the melting temperature of the polyolefin solids, thereby making the homogeneous mixture without melting the polyolefin solids.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining an initial point cloud for each of two or more radar systems that share a common field of view. Each initial point cloud results from processing reflected energy at each of the two or more radar systems. Each point of the initial point cloud indicates one or more hypotheses for a range, a Doppler, and a direction of arrival (DOA) to an object that resulted in the reflected energy. A point cloud, obtained from the initial point cloud, has a same number of hypotheses for the range, the Doppler, and the DOA. Resolving ambiguity in the common field of view is based on the point clouds to obtain resolved and unresolved points in the common field of view. A radar image obtained from each of the two or more radar systems is used to control an aspect of operation of a vehicle.

Abstract: A chilling system for reducing the temperature of water used in an evaporative air conditioning unit (EAC) to increase its efficiency and efficacy. The chilling system is integrated within a frame for convenient and secure retrofit to the EAC. Water is pumped into the chilling system via a water supply line from the EAC. When the temperature of the water in the water supply line is above a preset high temperature, the power supply turns on the thermoelectric chilling device to remove heat from coolant, which coolant passes through the heat exchanger to remove heat from the water passing through the heat exchanger. The water, now cooled, is discharged back into the reservoir of the EAC. This cycle continues until the temperature sensor indicates that the temperature of the water has fallen below a preset low temperature, at which point the power supply turns off the thermoelectric chilling device.

In this way, the HVAC system may be advantageously used to expose the vehicle interior to temperatures that kill or inactive microbes.
