  • Patent number: 11293796
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for detecting a fault condition in the measurement of the level of a medium in a tank having a floating roof. The method uses a radar level gauge to measure the level of the floating roof and a level measuring device to measure the level of the medium. The method includes recording the level of the floating roof during a defined time interval that comprises some filling/emptying cycles of the medium, recording the level of the medium during said time interval, determining the deviations between the level of the medium and the corresponding level of the floating roof, centering the deviations between the level of the medium and the level of the floating roof reduced by the thickness of the floating roof with the corresponding level data, and generating an alert message when the centered deviations exceed a tolerance threshold.

  • Publication number: 20220101205
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to multi-sensor fusion using Transform Learning (TL) that provides a compact representation of data in many scenarios as compared to Dictionary Learning (DL) and Deep network models that may be computationally intensive and complex. A two-stage approach for better modeling of sensor data is provided, wherein in the first stage, representation of the individual sensor time series is learnt using dedicated transforms and their associated coefficients and in the second stage, all the representations are fused together using a fusing (common) transform and its associated coefficients to effectively capture correlation between the different sensor representations for deriving an inference. The method and system of the present disclosure can find application in areas employing multiple sensors that are mostly heterogeneous in nature.

  • Publication number: 20220101376
    Abstract: First and second cookies are obtained from first and second devices, respectively. The first cookie includes a first ID corresponding to a registered user ID, which is in turn associated with first information indicating activities related to interactions of a registered user with a first website. The second cookie includes a second ID corresponding to an anonymous user ID, which is in turn associated with second information identifying activities related to interactions of an anonymous user with a second website. The first and second user IDS, and the first and second information, are stored in a database, and correlated to determine commonalities. In response to identifying at least one commonality a determination is made, based on the at least one commonality, that the registered user and the anonymous user are a single user. The database is updated to include a unified listener identifier (ULID) that links the registered user ID with the anonymous user ID.

  • Publication number: 20220101461
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to sequencing of asset segments of privacy policies. The asset segments are sequenced based on a set of constraints. In an embodiment the asset segments are sequenced using a set of pre-defined predecessors and a set of pre-defined successors of each asset segment through a feasible sequence generation technique and a sequence generation technique based on the constraints, wherein the constraints are preferences associated with the source entity and the target entity. Hence the disclosure bridges a communication gap between the source entity and the target entity by optimally displaying the most relevant privacy policy (mapped to the asset segments) based on the constraints associated with the source entity and the target entity. Further the disclosed system also determines a violation factor that represents a conflict between the preferences associated with the source entity and the target entity.
