  • Patent number: 11953317
    Abstract: A reference core position calculation device 100 that calculates a reference core position of an elevator shaft in which an elevator is to be installed includes a measurement unit 101 and a calculation unit 112. The measurement unit 101 measures a dimension of each portion of the elevator shaft. The calculation unit 112 calculates portion dimension values of the elevator shaft based on the reference core position and the dimension of each portion measured by the measurement unit 101. When the reference core position is a first reference core position, the calculation unit 112 determines whether portion dimension values of the elevator shaft calculated based on the first reference core position satisfy a predetermined specification.

  • Publication number: 20230107060
    Abstract: A vehicle display control device includes a hardware processor functioning as a regulation recognition unit, a regulation validity determination unit, and a display controller. The regulation recognition unit serves to recognize a traffic regulation mark indicating a traffic regulation provided on a traveling route of a host vehicle. The regulation validity determination unit serves to determine whether or not regulation content information is valid. The regulation content information is content of the regulation indicated by the traffic regulation mark recognized by the regulation recognition unit. The display controller serves to control a display device mounted on the host vehicle to display the regulation content information in a display region. The display controller changes a display mode of the regulation content information in response to determining by the regulation validity determination unit that the regulation content information is not valid.

  • Patent number: 11222282
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving a strategy associated with a new machine-learning (ML) project. There exist a plurality of ML projects, each of which includes artifacts, and for each such candidate project, the following are performed: iterations of the candidate ML project are divided into a first phase, including a first set of iterations, and a second phase, including a second set of iterations; a workload to generate the candidate ML project in the first phase is determined; a performance of the candidate ML project in the first phase is determined; an additional workload to generate the candidate ML project in the second phase is determined; and an increased performance of the candidate ML project in the second phase is determined. Final ML projects are selected from the candidate ML projects, based on the strategy. Artifacts of the final ML projects are incorporated into the new ML project.
