  • Publication number: 20220391717
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and system for training a passenger distribution prediction model, and a method and system for guiding passengers. In an embodiment, the passenger distribution is intelligently sensed by means of the characteristics of temperature, humidity and CO2 concentration distribution changes in cars caused by passenger density changes, which avoids the problems of crowd flow and obscuration faced by passenger distribution detection conducted with images, and avoids the difficulty in floor intrusive transformation faced by passenger distribution detection conducted with pressure sensors; the passenger flow is guided by adjusting the brightness of lighting tubes in the cars, for example, the lighting tubes in areas with high passenger density are dimmed, and the lighting tubes in areas with low passenger density are brightened, to guide ordered flow of passengers toward areas with low passenger density. Further details are disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 11520238
    Abstract: A method of optimizing an apparatus for multi-stage processing of product units such as wafers, the method includes: receiving object data representing one or more parameters measured across the product units and associated with different stages of processing of the product units; and determining fingerprints of variation of the object data across the product units, the fingerprints being associated with different respective stages of processing of the product units. The fingerprints may be determined by decomposing the object data into components using principal component analysis for each different respective stage; analyzing commonality of the fingerprints through the different stages to produce commonality results; and optimizing an apparatus for processing product units based on the commonality results.

  • Publication number: 20220381562
    Abstract: An inertia detection device includes one set of gyro sensors for detecting an angular velocity of a detection target object along a same direction, the gyro sensors arranged in a same physical quantity range, in which sensor movement is detectable as a same physical quantity. When an abnormality affecting an output signal of one of the gyro sensors is caused, based on an observation that a difference of magnitudes of the output signals from normal and abnormal gyro sensors is different from a difference of magnitudes of the output signals from two normal gyro sensors, such an abnormality of one of the gyro sensors is determinable by a comparison between the output signals, without using an estimated value thereof.
