Abstract: In some aspects, a computing system may use machine learning to determine whether a control is faulty or generate recommendations to make a modification to a control. may identify a portion of problematic computer code that implements the faulty control through the use of machine learning. A computing system may use machine learning to generate embeddings that map incident data and control data (e.g., computer-readable code of a control) to the same vector space. Further, a computing system may use a weighting mechanism that may be used to weight each sample used to train a machine learning model, which may allow a model to train more efficiently.

Abstract: In a method for packaging finished tobacco goods in a master box first a PE liner which is foreseen of an EVOH barrier or an Aluminium liner is folded in the master box. This can be done by an automatic machine or manually. In the manual embodiment the liner, already cut on the right sizes including a seal in the bottom, is pulled over a mall which has the same size as the master box. Then the master box is pulled over the mall including the liner. Then the master box including the liner is pulled of the mall and the master box is ready for storage. Next the master box with liner is filled with finished tobacco goods and sachets with oxygen and/or humidity absorbers are placed in the master box. Then the master box is placed in a vacuum room and the pressure in the vacuum room and in the liner and the master box is reduced. Next Nitrogen is injected in the vacuum room and/or the master box. Then the liner and the master box is sealed and the box is closed.

Abstract: Slurries of magnetic and nonmagnetic particles in water are treated in a high intensity magnetic separator including at least one turntable that defines at least one circular channel therethrough in which a matrix material is positioned. Rotation of the turntable in a generally horizontal plane about a generally vertical virtual axis causes the circular channel(s) to rotate through a plurality of magnetic and nonmagnetic zones generated by magnet members. Treatment slurry is directed into the channel(s) in one or more of the magnetic zones as the turntable rotates. A tailings fraction passing through the channel(s) in a generally downward direction in the magnetic zones is collected in tailings launders. Magnetic particles attracted to the matrix material in the magnetic zones remain in the channel(s) until they pass into an adjacent nonmagnetic zone, where the magnetic particles are washed from the channel(s) into concentrate launders.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, and corresponding apparatus, is used for mapping feature catalogs. The feature catalogs include features, feature attributes, and feature attribute enumerations. The method includes the steps of accessing a first feature catalog, accessing a second feature catalog, identifying features, feature attributes, and feature enumerations in the first feature catalog, identifying potentially corresponding features, feature attributes, and feature attribute enumerations in the second feature catalog, comparing the features, feature attributes, and feature attribute enumerations of the first and the second feature catalogs to determine a degree of match, and saving data indicative of each of the matches in a database to facilitate future searches and reports.

The venting system comprises a venting valve disposed within the aperture. The venting valve includes a valve body having a top portion and a neck portion extending from the top portion. The top portion is disposed outside the tank and is engaged thereto. The venting system further includes a channel which connects to the valve body so that the venting valve is in fluid communication therewith and is attached to the fuel delivery module cover to allow the gaseous fluid in the tank to be vented therefrom. The venting system further includes a cover which is comprised of the same predetermined material and is welded to the tank to seal the valve between the cover and the tank.

Abstract: A semiconductor device having a buried doped layer of semiconductor material and a non-alloyed contact to the buried doped layer. The non-alloyed contact is made ohmic by the presence of an underlying delta-doped monolayer. The semiconductor device is made by placing a stop-etch layer on top of a buried doped layer and forming at least one delta-doped monolayer in either the stop-etch layer or the buried doped layer. Layers of semiconductor material disposed above the stop-etch layer are removed with an etchant to define an active region of the semiconductor device. The stop-etch layer prevents the etchant from removing the delta-doped monolayer. A non-alloyed metal film is then deposited over the delta-doped monolayer to form an ohmic contact to the buried doped layer.

In the improved laser, the self-tuning saturable reflector comprises a first Bragg grating having a reflection spectrum broader than the spectrum of desired lasing and an additional Bragg reflector for light in the spectral region of lasing to provide self-starting and stable operation without mechanical tuning. The Bragg reflectors are preferably semiconductor quarter wave reflector stacks, and the saturable absorber is one or more quantum wells within the outer stack. The invention also encompasses the new saturable reflector used in such lasers.

Abstract: A method for thermocompression bonding structures together including structures having different coefficients of thermal expansion, for example, thermocompression bonding optical diode arrays or other semiconductor structures to silicon substrates to form electronic or optoelectronic devices. The method includes aligning and contacting the structures to be interconnected, thermocompressing the structures via their contact pad elements at a bonding temperature, establishing an encapsulation temperature, applying an encapsulant material between the bonded structures, and curing the encapsulant material at the encapsulation temperature. Conventional bonding processes, which treat encapsulation as a separate step apart from bonding processes, melt the bonded assembly together and include at least one thermal cycle in which the bonded assembly is cooled to room temperature and then is re-heated to the encapsulation temperature before applying the encapsulant material.
