  • Publication number: 20200271714
    Abstract: The method of the present invention makes it possible to recognize partial discharges acquired by means of sensors in electrical networks, comprising a series of steps, among which are a post-processing step (13) of the acquired signals and a recognition step (17) of said signals by means of a convolutional neural network (CNN). The method also includes adaptation (15) and training (16) steps of the neural network, as well as a step to build a library (14) of partial discharge signals from known sources that serve as training of the convolutional neural network (CNN).

  • Patent number: 10054083
    Abstract: An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system for an internal combustion engine having two dedicated EGR cylinders. A dual valve system is used to control the output of the dedicated EGR cylinders so that the engine may intake EGR exhaust from both, only one, or neither of the dedicated EGR cylinders.
