  • Publication number: 20250026534
    Abstract: A container lid is provided herein having structurally reinforcing ribs therein. The ribs increase the strength of the lid across a central region thereof. Specifically, the lid can have an outer perimeter and the ribs can be spaced inwardly from the outer perimeter. The inwardly spaced ribs can provide a distinct look for consumer differentiation. Additionally, the ribs can be arcuate so that they generally follow a curvature of the outer perimeter of the lid. As such, a label region within the lid central region is preserved, while the lid is still strengthened by the ribs.

  • Patent number: 11790047
    Abstract: The technology implements diversity sampling for a technology-assisted review of documents. An apparatus obtains an unlabeled set of documents and constructs a first batch of documents. The apparatus obtains labels for the documents and constructs a classification model using the labeled documents. The apparatus logs a found rate of a subsequent batch of documents from the unlabeled set of documents, the subsequent batch of documents being selected based on a comparison to the classification model. The apparatus determines that the classification model requires further training based on the found rate of the subsequent batch of documents and constructs a second batch of documents that includes an amount of diversity, which may be based on the found rate. The apparatus obtains labels for the second batch of documents and updates the model using the labeled second batch of documents. The method may be repeated to continue to refine the classification model.
