Abstract: A method for identifying vehicle vibration includes receiving signals indicative of a vehicle vibration from one or more vehicle sensors while the vehicle is in operation. The method also includes determining a magnitude of the vehicle vibration at one or more target frequency bands. The method additionally includes determining whether the vehicle vibration is associated with one or more wheels of the vehicle based on the magnitude of the vehicle vibration at the one or more target frequency bands. The method further includes generating a diagnostic recommendation when the vehicle vibration is associated with the one or more wheels of the vehicle.

Abstract: A restaurant service system for assessing the accuracy of estimated delivery time provided by a restaurant includes an order server, a restaurant server, a service server and an assessment server. Each of the servers includes a server software application. The order server software application collects a set of orders from a set of diner devices. The restaurant server software application retrieves an estimated delivery time for each order in the set. The service server software application determines an order actual delivery time for at least one order in the set. The assessment server software application determines an accuracy measure of estimated delivery time for the restaurant.

Abstract: A vehicle system includes a driver identification fusion module programmed to receive a confidence level from a plurality of identification modules. Each confidence level indicates the likelihood that a driver of a vehicle is a particular person. The driver identification fusion module is programmed to aggregate the confidences levels received from the plurality of identification modules and output an aggregated confidence level signal representing an identity of the driver based at least in part on the confidence levels received from the plurality of identification modules.

Abstract: Described is a method of inhibiting central apnea, central hypopnea or obstructive sleep apnea in a mammal. The method includes the step of administering to a mammal a central apnea inhibitory-effective, central hypopnea inhibitory-effective or obstructive sleep apnea inhibitory-effective amount of a composition comprising at least one retinoid or retinoid or retinoic acid receptor agonist.

Abstract: A method of making a pallet (10, 210) includes providing a pallet inner core (16, 218), and attaching, by adhesive, first and second complementarily shaped plastic skin shells (12, 14, 226) to portions of the core, and interconnecting the shells by heat fusing or interlocking elements. Each shells is formed of two plastic materials. The core is formed with reinforcing truss beams (700) therein, each having an upper chord part (710) which is flush with an upper surface of the core and in contact with the upper shell or adhesive. Each beam has webs (708) connected to chords, straight central portions (702) and end portions (704) extending downwardly into leg portions of the pallet. Also disclosed is a pallet having such features.

Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to gather historical risk-affecting data with respect to a current road. The processor is also configured to gather current risk-affecting data with respect to the current road. Further, the processor is configured to generate a baseline risk index for the road based on the historical data.

Abstract: An apparatus for installing irrigation drip tape, comprising a wheeled frame, a reel mounted on the wheeled frame and configured to hold a roll of irrigation drip tape, the roll of irrigation drip tape able to rotate freely on the reel, a stake driver, the stake driver configured to drive an agricultural stake into a soil, a activation control, the activation control configured to cause the stake driver to drive the agricultural stake into the soil, and a drip tape guide mounted on the wheeled frame, the drip tape guide configured to position irrigation drip tape dispensed from the reel under the stake driver such that the agricultural stake holds the irrigation drip tape in position when driven into the soil responsive to the activation control.

Abstract: Techniques for providing improved typeahead features are described. According to various embodiments, it is determined that a user has specified, via a user interface, a first metric term. A list of one or more suggested operators associated with the first metric term is then generated and displayed, and it is determined that the user has selected one of the suggested operators. Thereafter, a list of one or more suggested metric terms associated with the selected operator is generated and displayed, and it is determined that the user has selected a second metric term from the suggested metric terms. Thereafter, a custom metric definition data entity that references information defining a custom metric is generated, the information specifying that metric values associated with the custom metric are generated by processing metric values associated with the first metric term and the second metric term based on the selected operator.
