Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a multi-model ensemble of global climate simulation data from a plurality of pre-existing global climate simulation model (GCM) datasets, are disclosed. The methods and systems perform steps of computing a GCM dataset validation measure based on at least one sample statistic for at least one climate variable from the pre-existing GCM dataset; selecting a validated subset of the plurality of pre-existing GCM datasets; selecting a subset of GCM datasets; generating candidate ensembles of GCM datasets; computing an ensemble forecast skill score for each candidate ensemble based on a model analog; generating the multi-model ensemble of GCM datasets by selecting a candidate ensemble with a best ensemble forecast skill score; and training the NN-based climate forecasting model using the multi-model ensemble of GCM datasets. Embodiments of the present invention enable accurate climate forecasting without the need to run new dynamical global climate simulations on supercomputers.

Abstract: A method for configuring a data analyzer is provided. The method comprises displaying to a user, on a presentation interface coupled to a processor, a graphical representation of at least a portion of the data analyzer. A data analyzer configuration for the data analyzer is then generated using a user input interface, which is coupled to the presentation interface and the processor. The presentation interface then displays to the user a plurality of selectable machine train components. The method also comprises generating, using the user input interface, an interactive graphical representation of a machine train including at least one of the selectable machine train components. Using the processor, a configuration file is generated based on the data analyzer configuration and the graphical representation of the machine train. The configuration file facilitates diagnosing operation of the machine train using the data analyzer.

Abstract: A portable toilet seat for user over pre-existing toilet seats or in lieu of a broken or missing toilet seat is provided. The portable toilet seat provides a chain of arcuate portions pivotably connected in series so as to be adapted to fold among a flat condition, a first folded condition and a second folded condition. The bottom side of each arcuate portions may provide radial fins, each radial fin may provide a concentric slot. The concentric slots share a radial distance from a center of the opening defined by the portable toilet seat in the flat condition so that in such a condition the concentric slots may engage a rim of a toilet basin or bucket, while in the second folded condition the concentric slots securely engage the radial fins of opposing arcuate portions.

Abstract: A system may receive a request to replace a first item purchased by a buyer from a user device operated by the buyer. The request may also include a geographical location of the user device. A second item to replace the first item may be identified based on the item characteristics of the first item. A provider located within a pre-defined distance from the geographic location of the user device may be determined as having the second item available to replace the first item. An option of delivering the second item from the provider to the buyer may be displayed.

Abstract: A system receives standard game output consisting of electronic signals for displaying text, numbers, and machine sounds and converts these signals to animated behavior and animated speech of a virtual human bystander shown on the audio-visual display. An interface receives data communication representing standard game states and standard game output from a separate electronic game, and uses the input to drive a virtual assistant projector, which animates an automated virtual assistant on the audio-visual display. A game output converter translates standard game states and standard game output from the interface into animated behavior information and animated speech information for input to the virtual assistant projector. Computer processing of the system can be operationally and communicatively isolated from a main game engine of the electronic game table.

Abstract: A decoder circuit to decode an address for accessing a memory cell in a memory array includes address latch circuitry, inverter circuitry, and first address pre-decode circuitry. The address latch circuitry receives an address signal and generates address holding signals during a setup period. The address latch circuitry latches the address holding signals during an address hold period following the setup period. The inverter circuitry receives the address signal and generates a complementary address signal. The first address pre-decode circuitry decodes the address signal and the address holding signals during the setup period to generate a first pre-decode address signal at an output of the first address pre-decode circuitry. In addition, the first address pre-decode circuitry decodes the address holding signals during the address hold period to maintain the first pre-decode address signal at the output of the first address pre-decode circuitry.
