Abstract: Systems and methods for removing carbonaceous clinker material from a coke oven are described. A coke oven can be provided including an oven floor, coke, and clinker material deposited on the oven floor. After a temperature of the coke oven has reached a first temperature (e.g., after heating coal in the oven to produce coke), the method includes increasing the temperature of the coke oven to a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature for a predetermined amount of time. After the predetermined amount of time, the temperature is reduced to a third temperature that is lower than the first temperature.

Abstract: An HHO gas second fuel is produced in a pressure-resistant container and distributed at a low volumetric rate at multiple locations about the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A system for facilitating sender-side granular congestion control is provided. During operation, the first and second processes of an application can run on sender and receiver nodes, respectively. A first buffer on the sender node can be allocated to the first process. For the first process, the system can then identify a second buffer at a last-hop switch of the receiver node. The system can determine, based on in-flight packets, the utilization of the second buffer. The system can also determine a fraction of available space in the second buffer for packets from the first buffer based on the utilization. Subsequently, the system can determine whether the fraction of the available space can accommodate the next packet from the first buffer. If the fraction of the available space can accommodate the next packet, the system can allow the first process to send the next packet to the second process.

Abstract: A system may use multiple speech interface devices to interact with a user by speech. All or a portion of the speech interface devices may detect a user utterance and may initiate speech processing to determine a meaning or intent of the utterance. Within the speech processing, arbitration is employed to select one of the multiple speech interface devices to respond to the user utterance. Arbitration may be based in part on metadata that directly or indirectly indicates the proximity of the user to the devices, and the device that is deemed to be nearest the user may be selected to respond to the user utterance.

Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to methods, systems, and computer-readable media to automatically present suitable content for a particular audience. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method receiving virtual experience content associated with a first virtual experience associated with a first target audience and including content that is restricted as not viewable by a second target audience, receiving at least one content alternative, generating a first rating for the received virtual experience content and a second rating for the at least one content alternative, and automatically providing only one of the received virtual experience content or the at least one content alternative to user devices based on the first rating and the second rating.

Abstract: Performing an operation comprising transforming an input dataset to a predefined format, extracting, from the transformed dataset, a plurality of features describing the transformed dataset, and generating, by a machine learning (ML) algorithm executing on a processor and based on an ML model, a plurality of rules for modifying the transformed dataset to conform with a first data model.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a battery module including a subassembly that can include cells electrically connected to form a group; and groups of cells electrically connected to form the subassembly. The subassembly can include a lower cell carrier and an upper cell carrier configured to retain a thermally insulating material, the group of cells disposed between the upper and lower cell carriers, cell alignment and retention features integrally formed with one or more of: lower or upper cell carriers, means for inhibiting propagation of thermal runaway, a current collector comprising two or more conductive regions; and positive and negative terminals electrically connected to the two or more conductive regions, respectively, to form positive and negative terminals of battery module.
