  • Publication number: 20240061829
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for enhancing data from disjunctive sources using a weighted interaction graph. First data about first entities can be received from a first data source. Second data about second entities at least partially different than the first entities can be received from a second data source. Relationships between each entity of the first entities and second entities can be determined, and a set of classes can be inferred from the first data and from the second data. A weighted interaction graph can be generated. The weighted interaction graph can indicate a likelihood of each entity interacting with a corresponding class. An extended set of data can be generated using the weighted interaction graph. The extended set of data can be output to facilitate communication with third entities that include the first entities and the second entities.

  • Patent number: 11193586
    Abstract: A parking lock for a transmission of a motor vehicle may include a park gear rotatable about an axis of rotation, and an actuation device adjustable into a locking position and an unlocking position radially relative to the axis of rotation. In the unlocking position, rotating of the park gear may be possible, and in the locking position, rotating of the park gear may be prevented by way of positive locking. The actuation device may include a shifting drum and a locking lever, wherein the shifting drum may be rotatable about a guiding axis that is radial relative to the axis of rotation. The locking lever, by way of a guide track formed in the shifting drum, may interact with the guide track so that when the shifting drum is rotated, the locking lever may be guidable by the guide track radially relative to the axis of rotation and parallel to the guiding axis, and thereby the actuation device may be adjustable into the locking position and into the unlocking position.
