  • Patent number: 11492763
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tension clamp for the holding of a rail for rail vehicles and a rail fastening point. The tension clamp has a central section having two legs, two torsional sections connected thereto and leading away laterally in an outwards direction having a supporting zone, and two supporting arms connected to the torsional sections. The supporting arms run to the front face of the tension clamp and have a spring section and a support section with a supporting zone. The fact that the support sections point laterally in an outwards direction such that the straight lines which in each case connect the centers of the supporting zones and the torsional section allocated to the supporting arm in an area on the rear face of the tension element increases the natural frequencies of the tension clamp such that they are outside of stimulation frequencies that occur in practice.

  • Patent number: 11494690
    Abstract: A method of high dimensional data analysis in real-time comprising executing dimension-reducing an input historical data set under a t-SNE model and determining from the resulting dimension-reduced data set a recent; further dimension-reducing the recent group data set under a PCA model; statistical analyzing the further dimension-reduced data set to determine a threshold group for distinguishing abnormal data from normal ones in a real-time data stream. The method may further include training a classifier using the abnormal or normal data set for predicting anomaly in the real-time data source system. Alternatively, a discrepancy training data set is computed from one of the normal and abnormal data sets and be used to train one of independent normal and abnormal data regression models; with the other one trained by transfer learning based on the trained one. The trained regression models are then used to predict discrepancy values.

  • Patent number: 11493208
    Abstract: Hot surface igniter assemblies used in cooktops are shown and described. The hot surface igniters include a silicon nitride ceramic body with an embedded, resistive, heat-generating circuit. The igniters are less than 0.04 inches thick, and when energized, they reach surface temperatures in excess of 2000° F. in under 4 seconds to ignite cooking gas such as propane, butane, or natural gas. Examples of cook top burner systems are also provided which allow the igniter to remain on after ignition at a power level that is lower than during ignition but high enough to ignite the cooking gas should a flame out occur. Examples are also provided of burners that ignite on a low flow setting (e.g., simmer) as opposed the high flow settings that are common in cook top industry.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for converting data to a tiling format when implementing convolutional neural networks are disclosed. A system includes at least a memory, a cache, a processor, and a plurality of compute units. The memory stores a first buffer and a second buffer in a linear format, where the first buffer stores convolutional filter data and the second buffer stores image data. The processor converts the first and second buffers from the linear format to third and fourth buffers, respectively, in a tiling format. The plurality of compute units load the tiling-formatted data from the third and fourth buffers in memory to the cache and then perform a convolutional filter operation on the tiling-formatted data. The system generates a classification of a first dataset based on a result of the convolutional filter operation.

  • Patent number: 11496394
    Abstract: Systems and methods for efficient kernel space packet processing and IoT device classification are provided. According to one embodiment, a computer system performs IoT device detection processing. Packet header information is received for multiple packets. Based on the packet header information, multiple Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) flows between a given source device of multiple devices and a given destination device of the multiple devices are identified. For each TCP or UDP flow: a variable-length feature set is created having a size limited by a predetermined or configurable aggregate number of packets sent and received for the TCP or UDP flow; and it is inferred whether the TCP or UDP flow represents an IoT device communication or a non-IoT device communication by applying a machine-learning model to the variable length feature set.
