Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for automatically packaging one or more articles as a set of items to be shipped is disclosed. The system, apparatus, and method processes packaging material based at least in part on a scan of the set of items to be shipped, and forms cushioning of two matched streams of packaging material, with height of each package automated to size for the set, yielding shipping-ready customized packages. The customized packages are configured to conform to each individual article's size. The packaging material preferably is fully recyclable and is made from paper which is selectively expandable to create a cushioning layer around the set.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for reducing or minimizing fouling within the primary fractionator of a pyrolysis reaction system. The reduced or minimized fouling can be achieved in part by providing one or more pump-around trays in the primary fractionator below the level of the fractionation trays for an intermediate product produced by the fractionator. Including a pump-around section below the fractionation trays can improve vapor distribution within the fractionation trays, which are believed to have an increased likelihood of accumulation of foulant deposits. Optionally, other vapor distribution devices can be included along with the pump-around section.

Abstract: A packaging material including one or more expandable layers that provide protection to contents of a packaging enclosure formed with the packaging material. The packaging material includes at least a first layer and a second layer bonded to one another. The first layer is pulled or extended in a first direction that is effective to cause the second layer to expand in a second direction. The second layer is a cut-patterned layer which increases in thickness and provides structural strength to the packaging material when expanded.

Abstract: Provided are computing systems, methods, and platforms that automatically produce production-ready machine learning models and deployment pipelines from minimal input information such as a raw training dataset. In particular, one example computing system can import a training dataset associated with a user. The computing system can execute an origination machine learning pipeline to perform a model architecture search that selects and trains a machine learning model for the training dataset. Execution of the origination machine learning pipeline can also result in generation of a deployment machine learning pipeline configured to enable deployment of the machine learning model (e.g., running the machine learning model to produce inferences and/or optionally other tasks such as re-training and/or re-tuning the model).

Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed for providing an adaptable Internet of Things platform. A platform edge gateway device hosts containerized applications, in which each containerized application performs a discrete function. The edge gateway device correlates data output from one or more of the containerized applications, which are then transmitted to additional containerized applications for further processing.

Abstract: A vehicle frame assembly includes a frame bar extending between first and second ends along a first axis. The first end is coupled with a first guide assembly, and the second end of the frame bar is coupled with a second guide assembly. First and second housings are coupled with a frame of a vehicle system. A first actuator system extends between the first housing and the frame bar, and a second actuator system is extends between the second housing and the frame bar. The first and second actuator systems control rotational movement of the frame bar between first and second directions of rotation. Rotating the frame bar in the first direction of rotation moves an axle away from a route, and rotating the frame bar in the second direction of rotation moves the axle toward the route.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for automatically packaging one or more articles is disclosed. The system, apparatus, and method processes incoming articles having different and/or similar shapes and in random orientations for packaging. The system, apparatus, and method form shipping-ready customized packages, based, at least in part, on data associated with an individual article and gathered by a detecting device as the individual article moves along a first conveyor towards a packaging station of the system. The customized packages are configured to conform to each individual article's shape and size. The packaging preferably is fully recyclable and is made from paper which is expandable to create a cushioning layer around the packaged article.
