Abstract: An alarm rationalization system receiving and responsive to industrial process information collected from a process control system for identifying one or more alarms and executing an artificial intelligence (AI) alarm engine. The AI alarm engine builds a process/domain model based on the received industrial process information and historized alarm information to evaluate the alarms in accordance with a predefined alarm philosophy. The AI alarm engine then generates a plurality of alarm definitions based on the model to optimize the alarms. The AI alarm engine automatically populates a Master Alarm Database (MADB) with the alarm definitions. The alarms are then rationalized based on the alarm definitions stored in the MADB.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling industrial process automation and control systems can automatically, through the use of machine learning (ML) models and algorithms, extract plant assets from engineering diagrams and other plant engineering data sources. The systems and methods can establish asset relationships to create a plant asset registry and build an asset hierarchy from the plant assets. The systems and methods can generate an ontological knowledge base from the plant asset hierarchy, and provide an HMI for controlling the industrial process based on the plant asset hierarchy and the ontological knowledge base.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling industrial an industrial plant comprise: inputting an engineering diagram for a unit of the industrial plant, the engineering diagram including symbols representing assets of the industrial plant; extracting one or more assets from the engineering diagram using machine learning to recognize the one or more assets, the one or more assets including equipment, instruments, connectors, and lines, the lines relating the equipment, instruments, and connectors to one another; determining one or more relationships between the equipment, instruments, connectors, and lines to one another using machine learning to recognize the one or more relationships; and creating a flow graph from the equipment, instruments, connectors, and lines and the relationships between the equipment, instruments, connectors, and lines.

Abstract: Automated evaluation and extraction of information from piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs). Aspects of the systems and methods utilize machine learning and image processing techniques to extract relevant information, such as tag names, tag numbers, and symbols, and their positions, from P&IDs. Further aspects feed errors back to a machine learning system to update its learning and improve operation of the systems and methods.

Abstract: A system and method of diagnosing and correcting errors in a server computer. A server computer is coupled by a communication path to a client computer. A storage device stores a diagnostic error detecting and correcting program and the server computer is programmed to implement the diagnostic error detecting and correcting program. The server computer detects several selected operating parameters during operation of the server process and determines if at least a first of the selected operating parameters are outside a pre-determined specification for the selected operating parameters. In response to the selected operating parameters being outside the pre-determined specification, the server computer notifies the client computer of an error with the server process. The server computer can also detect communication errors and attempt to restore communications by modifying communication parameter(s).

Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention relate to an endoscopic system and accessories. In particular, the various embodiments relate to endoscopic systems in which an accessory comprises a multi-lumen device that is capable of quantitatively delivering at least a catheter, a balloon, and a needle to a site. The accessory is configured to allow for individual, independent control of its components. For example, in some embodiments, the needle and guidewire can be independently controlled. In addition, the needle may be retracted back into an inner lumen of the catheter body.

Abstract: A method of automatic manufacturability evaluation of plastic models comprises generation of a likely pulling direction, recognition of common features on plastic parts, and then applying manufacturability rules The manufacturability rules can be specified and customized through user specified rule parameters and depend upon the geometric parameters of the recognized features. A system comprises a user interface for selection and customization of DFX (Design for ‘X’) rules for evaluation of a design. The system includes a user interface integrated with a CAD system for receiving the CAD data and displaying the results to the user. Geometry analysis engines are integrated into the system, for extracting the various features and corresponding parameters required as input to the manufacturability rules. The system further involves extensible interfaces for rules and analysis engines which allows users to write their own customized rules and engines and integrate these into the CAD based DFX evaluation system.
