  • Publication number: 20240046634
    Abstract: For updating a computer vision model, a method converts a user input drawing including a user annotation of a first image in a drawing format to a training format image in a training format for a computer vision model. The method generates a training-representation drawing from the training format image. The training-representation drawing includes an image inference for the first image. The method receives user feedback for the training-representation drawing in the drawing format. The method updates the computer vision model based on the user feedback. The method generates an image inference for a second image based on the updated computer vision model and generates model-health metrics, agreement-metrics, and a sortable image index to explain image inferences with respect to guided user annotation of the second image. The method caches partial results from the image-inferences to afford quicker updating of computer vision models, affording more iterative model-development than ad-hoc model-evaluation.

  • Publication number: 20200316759
    Abstract: A universal tool which can be a screwdriver, wrench, pliers, or any other tool. The tool can operate on an object (e.g., a screw, bolt, etc.) of any shape because of a set of pins that can mold to match a shape of the object. For example, a same universal screwdriver has pegs which mold themselves to match a shape of a slotted screw head or mold themselves to match a shape of a philips screw head. A user of the universal screwdriver can then turn such screw by turning the universal screwdriver in a standard fashion. When the universal screwdriver is removed from the object, then the pegs automatically revert themselves to a default position so a different shaped screw head can then be operated on.

  • Publication number: 20120060418
    Abstract: A catalyst system including at least one metal and an oxide support, said oxide support including at least one of Al2O3, MnxOy, MgO, ZrO2, and La2O3, or any mixtures thereof; said catalyst being suitable for catalyzing at least one reaction under supercritical water conditions is disclosed. Additionally, a system for producing a high-pressure product gas under super-critical water conditions is provided. The system includes a pressure reactor accommodating a feed mixture of water and organic matter; a solar radiation concentrating system heating the pressure reactor and elevating the temperature and the pressure of the mixture to about the water critical temperature point and pressure point or higher. The reactor is configured and operable to enable a supercritical water process of the mixture to occur therein for conversion of the organic matter and producing a high-pressure product fuel gas.
