One method includes obtaining a machine learning model, wherein the machine learning model comprises one or more model parameters, and the machine learning model is trained using gradient descent techniques to optimize an objective function; determining an update rule for the model parameters using a recurrent neural network (RNN); and applying a determined update rule for a final time step in a sequence of multiple time steps to the model parameters.

Abstract: Systems and methods for data acquisition utilizing spare or unused databus capacity are provided. In one example aspect, the system includes a vehicle that includes an engine and a controller. The controller generates a data file indicative of Continuous Engine Operation Data (CEOD). The data file is transmitted over a serial databus to a bus recorder. Particularly, the data file is continuously generated by the controller and stored in a buffer. The available bandwidth of a transmission frame for the serial databus is determined. A portion of the data file is retrieved from the buffer based at least in part on the determined bandwidth. The portion of the data file is divided into relatively small transmission payloads and packed into the available bandwidth of the transmission frame. This process is repeated on a continuous basis and the bus recorder records the data. The data file is then reconstituted and decoded.

Abstract: Measurements of esophageal pressure and geometry are classified using a trained machine learning algorithm, such as a neural network or other classifier algorithm. Contractile response patterns can be identified in the esophageal pressure and geometry data, from which classified feature data can be generated. The classified feature data classify the esophageal pressure and geometry data as being indicative of an upper gastrointestinal disorder in the subject.

Abstract: A fish monitoring system deployed in a particular area to obtain fish images is described. Neural networks and machine-learning techniques may be implemented to periodically train fish monitoring systems and generate monitoring modes to capture high quality images of fish based on the conditions in the determined area. The camera systems may be configured according to the settings, e.g., positions, viewing angles, specified by the monitoring modes when conditions matching the monitoring modes are detected. Each monitoring mode may be associated with one or more fish activities, such as sleeping, eating, swimming alone, and one or more parameters, such as time, location, and fish type.
