Abstract: A computer-implemented method for classifying an input signal that is ascertained as a function of an output signal of a sensor as to whether or not it has an anomaly, it being decided, as a function of an output signal of an autoencoder (60) to which the input signal is supplied, whether or not the input signal has the anomaly. The autoencoder has at least one encoder and at least one decoder. An intermediate variable is ascertained as a function of the input signal by the encoder, and the output signal is ascertained by the decoder as a function of the intermediate variable. The autoencoder provides, for the input signal supplied to it, a plurality of hypotheses of formula for the reconstruction of the input signal, and the output signal is ascertained as a function of this plurality of hypotheses of formula.

Abstract: A method for tire inspection which includes taking at least one image of at least one first area of a tread of a tire that is to be inspected; determining the profile depth of a second area of the tread of the tire, the second area being included in the first area; and displaying the profile depth of the at least one image of the at least one first area and the position of the second area in the first area. The method may additionally include automatically analyzing the images taken of the tread, so as to arrive at statements on the condition of the tread.

Abstract: A method for generating and maintaining hierarchical tags with community-based ratings is provided. Tags for media streams are organized into a hierarchical format. Users may select tags from the hierarchical tag database that describes a particular multimedia content. If the user is unable to locate a desired tag, the user may submit a new tag. Upon submission of the new tag, a librarian approves the tag before storing and placing the tag in the hierarchical tag database. Users are also able to rate the quality of the association between the tag and the multimedia content. If a tag is rated low, the tag may be removed from the hierarchical tag database. If the tag is rated highly, display of the tag in a list of tags becomes more prominent.
