  • Publication number: 20240311547
    Abstract: A method for interpreting incident reports parses an incident report. The method determines abnormal condition scores, each abnormal condition score corresponding to at least one parsed word of the incident report. The method determines normal condition scores, each normal condition score corresponding to at least one parsed word of the incident report. The method generates a user interface having a visual representation of the incident report. The method marks a set of parsed words corresponding to a portion of the abnormal condition scores using a first visual indicator. The method marks another set of parsed words corresponding to a portion of normal condition scores using a second visual indicator.

  • Publication number: 20240310824
    Abstract: A method for monitoring an industrial facility divides an incident report into text portions. The method determines text confidence values to the text portions. The method determines a report characteristic including a non-textual data type for the incident report. The method trains a neural network model. The method inputs the text confidence values and the report characteristic into the neural network model. The method outputs a network confidence value from the neural network model in response to inputting the text confidence values and the report characteristic.

  • Patent number: 12065588
    Abstract: Methods for forming melt processable, actinic radiation polymerizable and crosslinkable adhesives are described. In certain versions, the adhesives or pre-adhesive compositions include two initiators and are polymerized and/or crosslinked by exposure to actinic radiation such as UV light or electron beam radiation. Also described are pre-adhesive compositions including polymerizable monomers, articles including the adhesives, and various methods and systems related to the adhesives and their application. In addition, various apparatuses are described for polymerizing or crosslinking the compositions.

  • Patent number: 11154877
    Abstract: A specialty nozzle is provided having a pattern adjustment valve that may be adjusted to irrigate a substantially rectangular irrigation area. The nozzle may be further adjusted to irrigate three different substantially rectangular irrigation areas. The nozzle is adjustable to function as a left strip nozzle, right strip nozzle, and side strip nozzle. The strip irrigation setting may be selected by pressing down and rotating a deflector to directly actuate the valve. The nozzle may also include a flow reduction valve to set the size of the rectangular irrigation areas and may be adjusted by actuation of an outer wall of the nozzle. Other specialty nozzles are provided having a fixed pattern template to irrigate a rectangular area, such as left strip, right strip, or side strip.
