  • Patent number: 11344987
    Abstract: A method for monitoring chatter in a machining process includes the following steps: collecting an original signal related to chatter in the machining process; for the original signal, obtaining a signal segment for calculation and analysis by updating data points in a sliding window with a set step-length, where the step-length refers to a number of data points updated every time in the sliding window, and is not greater than the size of the sliding window; calculating fractal dimensions of the signal segments in the sliding window by using a fractal algorithm; and comparing the calculated fractal dimension with an identification threshold to determine whether chatter occurs in the machining process. The measured signal does not need to be preprocessed by using the method, which can greatly improve calculation efficiency and can ensure accuracy of chatter identification.

  • Patent number: 11252481
    Abstract: A media content item is evaluated for its “sentiment states.” That is, segments of the content item are determined to be, for example, “happy,” “exciting,” “sad,” “funny,” and the like. A “sentiment map” is created that delimits segments of the content item and contains the sentiment-state keywords associated with the segments. Some maps include an amplitude for each assigned sentiment keyword and a confidence value for the segment delimitation and for each keyword. As an exemplary use of the sentiment map, an advertisement broker matches the sentiments of his advertisement offerings with segments of a content item in order to place appropriate advertisements at times when they would be most favorably received. In another example, a recommender system recommends to a user a content item whose sentiment map compares favorably to that of a content item already enjoyed by the user.
