Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing financial data analytics recommendations using a data analytics engine in a customer relationship management system. The recommendations can be a lead that is information associated with a model-generated suggested consumer solution, an alert of increased risk of attrition, or an alert of increased risk of default. The data analytics engine is configured to generate target variables associated with financial products or the customer relationship and utilize modeling techniques and apply rules to generate recommendations. Operationally, the recommendations are generated based on a data analytics model. Generating the recommendations is based on feature variables that are generated based on aggregation and transformation of customer data and utilizing machine learning models to detect patterns in the customer data using the feature variables.

Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust gas particulate filter made of sintered metal for removing particulates contained in the exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine, particularly of a diesel internal combustion engine. The exhaust gas particulate filter is made of a filter material having at least one metal support (1), which has openings (O). The openings (O) are bounded by segments (S), which are tilted in respect to the outer surface planes of the support (1). The openings (O) are filled with sinter metal powder. The support (1) consists of an expanded metal, and the sections delimitating the openings (O) of the support (1) are joined to one another with a material bond forming nodes (K). The sintered metal powder filling of the openings (O) is arranged in a substantially flush manner with the outside surfaces of the support (1).

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a hinge connection for connecting vehicle parts 1 and 2 of a multiple-unit rail-borne vehicle in an articulated manner by a rolling bearing 3, which is held on a support 2a projecting beyond the end of one of the vehicle parts 2. The hinge cooperates with a support 1a projecting beyond the end of another vehicle part 1 in an articulated manner, and permits horizontal and vertical deflecting movements of the vehicle parts 1 and 2 in relation to one another. The design of the hinge connection is such that the rolling bearing is relieved of wear-promoting loads and greater horizontal buckling angles between the connected vehicle parts can be obtained. This objective is accomplished by the support 2a of the second vehicle part 2 being fixed, via an elastomer hinge 4, to the inner ring 3a of the rolling bearing 3, which has neither radial nor axial play, at least in the installed state.
