Abstract: A computer-implemented method for classifying manoeuvres performed by an aircraft, including: acquiring a data structure including at least one unknown data matrix including a plurality of time series of samples of quantities related to the flight of the aircraft, the samples being relative to a succession of instants of time; applying to the unknown data matrix a neural network generating a corresponding probability matrix including, for each instant of time of the succession of instants of time, a corresponding probability vector including, for each class of a plurality of classes of manoeuvres, a corresponding estimate of the probability that, in the instant of time, the aircraft has performed a manoeuvre belonging to the class; and selecting, for each instant of time of the succession of instants of time, a corresponding class of manoeuvres, based on the probability estimates of the corresponding probability vector.

Abstract: Method implemented by computer for detecting flight regimes of an aircraft equipped with a monitoring system that acquires samples of quantities relative to the flight including: acquiring an unknown matrix including, for each quantity, a corresponding series of samples; performing smoothing operations of each series of samples, so as to generate a corresponding series of smoothed samples and determining a corresponding approximating function defined by a respective series of coefficients and by a plurality of base functions, the smoothed series of samples forming a smoothed unknown matrix; on the basis of the base functions, applying to the smoothed unknown matrix and to the corresponding sets of coefficients a classifier trained to generate, for each flight regime among a plurality of flight regimes, a corresponding estimate of the probability that the smoothed unknown matrix and the corresponding sets of coefficients belong to a cluster relative to the flight regime; identifying a flight regime in which th

Abstract: Method implemented through a computer for detecting the execution, by an aircraft, of a manoeuvre belonging to a macrocategory among a plurality of macrocategories, including: receiving a data structure with a plurality of time series of values of quantities relating to a flight of the aircraft; for each time duration among a plurality of predetermined time durations, selecting a corresponding subset of the data structure and extracting a corresponding feature vector; on the basis of the feature vectors, generating a corresponding input macrovector and applying to the input macrovector an output classifier to generate estimates indicative of the probability that the aircraft was performing manoeuvres belonging to the macrocategories.

Abstract: Method and device for wet treating a defined peripheral edge-region of a wafer-shaped article having a first surface plane W1, a second surface plane W2 and an edge surface. The device includes a support for holding the wafer-shaped article; liquid dispensing members for dispensing liquid onto the first surface plane W1 of the wafer-shaped article not facing the support and liquid guiding member connected to the support for guiding at least a part of the liquid around the edge surface of the wafer-shaped article towards the second surface plane W2 of the wafer-shaped article facing the support thereby wetting at least the edge surface, wherein the liquid guiding member has the form of a ring.
