Patent number: 11921001Abstract: A method and system for inspecting deviation in dynamic characteristics of a feeding system are provided, and the method includes: exciting the feeding system and detecting vibrations of a subcomponent of a component to be inspected of the feeding system to generate a monitoring excitation signal in a monitoring mode; calculating, by a modal analysis method, monitoring eigenvalues and monitoring eigenvectors of the monitoring excitation signal; determining, by a modal verification method, similarity between the monitoring eigenvalues and standard eigenvalues of a digital twin model and similarity between the monitoring eigenvectors and standard eigenvectors of the digital twin model; determining that the dynamic characteristics of the subcomponent are deviated, when the monitoring eigenvalues and monitoring eigenvectors are not similar to the standard eigenvalues and standard eigenvectors. Therefore, the subcomponent whose dynamic characteristics are deviated can be sensed remotely and precisely.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Hiwin Technologies Corp.Inventors: Hsien-Yu Chen, Yu-Sheng Chiu, Chih-Chun Cheng, Wen-Nan Cheng, Chi-Ming Liu

Patent number: 10616169Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems to make suggestions regarding posts are detailed. For example, in an embodiment, a social networking system receives a user post from a first user, publishes the user post on behalf of the first user, receives and tracks interactions by other users with the user post, analyzes the received and tracked interactions to determine suggestion regarding the post, and provides the suggestion regarding the user post to the first user in a graphical user interface.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2015Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Tony Hsien-yu Liu, Yuankai Ge, Barton David Smith, Paritosh Aggarwal, Daniel Dinu

Publication number: 20190124023Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes retrieving one or more previous communications associated with a first user of an online social network, each of the previous communications having been made on a date in the past, and filtering out each of one or more of the previous communications based on one or more criteria, wherein the criteria are associated with a likelihood that the filtered-out previous communication will cause an unwanted emotional reaction by the user. The method also includes calculating a distribution-probability score for each of one or more remaining previous communications, wherein the distribution-probability score reflects a probability that the previous communication will be shared on the online social network by the first user, and sending at least one remaining previous communication to a client system of the first user, wherein the distribution-probability score for the previous communication satisfies a threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2017Publication date: April 25, 2019Inventors: Sandi Brynn Conroy, Hoa Vu, Per Ingelsberg, Tony Hsien-yu Liu

Patent number: 9146894Abstract: A method for making entity recommendations to users of a social networking system (SNS) by maximizing a predicted benefit to the SNS through objective value models. The method includes generating a plurality of candidate entities eligible for recommendation, and determining a weight for each candidate entity based upon an output score generated by an objective value model. The objective value model utilizes objectively measurable input values describing the candidate entities and generates larger output scores for those candidate entities that would create larger predicted increases in an objectively measurable amount of benefit for the SNS created by a potential connection being created between the user and the respective candidate entity. One or more entities are selected based upon the determined weights, and an entity recommendation user interface is presented to the user that includes one or more recommendation modules identifying the selected one or more entities.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2013Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: FACEBOOK, INC.Inventors: Brian Piepgrass, Deeptanshu Verma, Tony Hsien-yu Liu, Ashish Yadav, Julia Lee
