Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a box sealer including a first box measurer including a top flap engager configured to move downwardly from a disengaged position above a box at a box measuring position to an engaged position in which the top flap engager engages one or more of the four upright open top flaps of the box. The amount of movement of the top flap engager is partially used to determine the height of the box. The determined height is then used to position a combined flap closer and flap sealer at an appropriate position.

Abstract: In embodiments, a method for managing documents in an electronic deal room associated with a document-intensive activity, the method comprising: receiving, by a processing system of a deal room platform, a request to upload a document to the electronic deal room from a user device associated with a user participating in the deal; receiving, by the processing system, the document from a document source; determining, by the processing system, a classification of the document based on one or more features of the document and a machine-learned document classification model that is trained to classify documents involved in document-intensive activities; identifying, by the processing system, one or more folders of an organizational structure having a plurality of folders corresponding to the electronic deal room based on the classification; and associating, by the processing system, the document with the one or more folders.

Abstract: A computer-based system for unobscuring and/or unconstraining demand is disclosed. Via use of the system, actual airline seat bookings may be restated in an unobscured and/or unconstrained form, facilitating improved demand forecasts for subsequent seat bookings. In this manner, seat protects may be better allocated to align with actual demand, thus increasing revenue.

Abstract: Certain aspects pertain to a cloud detector comprising a first detector module directed to a first region of the sky and a second detector module directed to a second region of the sky. Each detector module has a tube enclosing one or more sensing elements. The one or more sensing elements of the first detector module are configured to take weather condition readings from the first region of the sky. The one or more sensing elements of the second detector module are configured to take weather condition readings from the second region of the sky. In one aspect, the cloud detector is configured to detect cloud cover based on these weather condition readings. In some cases, the one or more sensing elements comprise an infrared radiation detector (e.g., thermopile) for measuring infrared radiation intensity and a photosensor element for measuring sunlight intensity.

Abstract: A tool assembly including at least one movable cam assembly including at least one cam, where the cam assembly is adapted to expand, contract, and eject a seal ring onto a component.

Abstract: An artificial paver comprises a physical member adapted to have a structure shape of a paver and located on the top surface of a paving area. The physical member may be made of a two-component polyurethane material, and the two-component material may be formulated to characterize the artificial paver to be softer than a stone or concrete paving object and to exhibit higher shock absorbing properties than the stone or concrete paving object. A method for manufacturing the artificial paver is also contemplated. The method may comprise pouring the two-component polyurethane material into molds, allowing the two-component polyurethane material in the molds to cure, demolding the cured two-component polyurethane material, and applying an UV stable polyurethane and slip-resistant coating to a surface of the demolded two-component polyurethane material.

Abstract: A computer based system for determining even-spaced quantiles using class authorization level values and network values. Determining a curve and a set of revised values, and remapping based on the revised values.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for forecasting costs and determining probabilities, along with the use of prediction modeling. The system analyzes previous actions to determine future actions, while using cost prediction modeling.

Abstract: The system applies logistic regression to historical data to generate forecast coefficients. The system creates an updated authorization parameter in real-time iteratively throughout a period of time.

Abstract: The system determines even-spaced quantiles for network optimization. The system may utilize authorization level to expected network conversion. The system may be used in connection with yield management systems, inventory control systems, or revenue management systems.
