Abstract: A computer-implemented method for behavior planning for a first participant in a traffic scene, in which a predicted behavior of at least one further participant in the traffic scene is taken into account, specifically depending on the epistemic uncertainty of the predicted behavior. For this purpose, the behavior of the further participant is predicted at regular time intervals, in each case for a prediction interval of a specified length, wherein each prediction interval includes a specified number of consecutive prediction steps. The epistemic uncertainty of the predicted behavior is determined for each prediction step of a prediction interval and is evaluated using a decision criterion to decide whether the behavior of the further participant predicted for the corresponding prediction step is taken into account in the behavior planning for the first participant.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for predicting a behavior of at least one participant in a traffic scene. At least one AI-based prediction component is used to predict a specified number K of behavior options of the at least one participant for at least one future time segment on the basis of scene-specific information which are aggregated at a current time point. Each time segment includes a specified number T of consecutive time points. At least one current overall uncertainty value that quantifies the epistemic uncertainty of all predicted behavior options for the at least one future time segment is determined in parallel to the prediction of the individual behavior options.

Abstract: A method for predicting a future state and/or behavior of a scenario whose further development is correlated with one or more observable variables, without directly and unambiguously arising from these observable variables. In the method: measured observations of the observable variables at current points in time are processed using an encoder to form context representations; the context representations are processed using a specified processing function to form processing products; predictions for context representations of the scenario at future points in time are determined using a context predictor on the basis of at least the processing products as the sought-after prediction of the future state and/or behavior; wherein the processing function is designed to aggregate context representations from a specified time horizon prior to a point in time to form the processing product.

Abstract: Container with at least one vacuum enclosure with an access opening, especially a beverage container with a self-cooling device having a vacuum enclosure, such as a beer barrel or the like, the access opening of which is closed off by a closing mechanism after the vacuum is produced, a chamber being provided, which is downstream from the access opening and in which a valve element is disposed, which is opened during the generation of the vacuum and closed after the vacuum is generated, which chamber is filled with a medium containing an element or compound capable of diffusing, which diffuses if the chamber and, with that, the vacuum chamber is not closed off tightly, through the access opening.

Abstract: A tearing mill for comminuting fruits is equipped with a rotatably supported plate having tearing elements And with a stuffing device with a feed screw for delivering the fruits to the plate. A gap of adjustable width exists between the stuffing device and the plate. By means of an independent control of the gap and the rotational speed of the feed screw and plate, a mash structure of the comminuted fruits is achieved which is well adapted to the type of fruits and to subsequent processing of the mash.

Abstract: A cutting tool with a linear oscillating drive has a handle body (1) and a knife (3, 4) which is guided therein and is displaceable in an oscillating manner in the longitudinal direction, the knife (3, 4), by means of a knife holder (4), being detachably connected via a clamping member to a transmission element, arranged in the handle body (1), of the linear oscillating drive. Since the knife holder (4) is cohesively connected, in particular sealed, together with a knife shaft (31), the cutting tool complies with the hygiene regulations for use in the foodstuffs sector.

Abstract: A motor housing (11) is mounted in a handle body (10) so as to slide in the longitudinal direction. A tubular pipe (37) that can slide in a bore (38) of the body (10) projects from the back of the housing (11). Compressed air can be applied to the bore (38) through a switching valve (40). A piston (14) with a piston rod (17) can slide in the housing and a tool can be secured to its front end. A flutter valve (23) which alternatingly connects the bore (38) to the two cylinder chambers (27, 28) is built into the valve housing (22). The piston (14) alternatingly opens the connection to an outgoing air conduit (29-31). A pre-stressed spring (47) is set between the body (10) and the housing (11). In operation, the housing (11) oscillates out of step with the piston (14), so that their initial forces are largely compensated and no vibrations are transmitted to the handle body (10).
