Abstract: A water change system comprises a water change device that performs automated water changes. The water change device automatically drains an amount of water needing replacement from a reservoir and replenishes the reservoir with a predetermined amount of clean water. The water change device comprises a reservoir port, an output port, an input port, a controller, and an enclosure. In a draining mode, water is pumped from the reservoir, through the reservoir port and into a drain or output tank via the output port. In the reservoir filling mode, clean water from an input tank or water source is pumped into the input port of the water change device and to the reservoir via the reservoir port. The water change device automatically performs water changes in accordance with a water change schedule or in response to user input. The water change device is configurable via a touch display or remotely.

Abstract: A federated machine learning system for training students comprises a first adaptive training system having a first artificial intelligence module for adapting individualized training to a first group of students and for developing a first learning model based on a first set of learning performance metrics. A second adaptive training system provides individualized training to a second group of students and has a data property extraction module for extracting statistical properties from a second set of learning performance metrics for the second group of students. A data simulator module generates simulated performance metrics using extracted statistical properties from the second set of learning performance metrics to thereby generate a second learning model. A federation computing device receives first and second model weights for the first and second learning models and generates or refines a federated model based on the first and second model weights.

Abstract: A system includes server that performs operations including obtaining, from sensors, measurements of physical parameters related to electrical power transmission and data transfer corresponding to a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) data links and a multi-use power interface configured to be electrically and communicatively coupled to a vehicle via the BPL data links. The operations also include receiving identification and location information, and a timestamp associated with a connector of the multi-use power interface, and then storing the measurements, the identification and location information, and the timestamp. The operations further include detecting a change of the connector, and identifying trends in parameters by comparing the measurements and the identification and location information to historical data.

Abstract: Airborne pollutants from natural and man-made sources are an increasing where their aerodynamic properties determine how far into the human respiratory system they penetrate. International and national guidelines or regulatory limits specify limits for particulate matter (PM) at different particulate dimensions leading to a requirement for low cost compact PM detectors/sensors. A flow of known and desired size particles are separated and guided by a virtual impactor towards a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensor, e.g. MEMS resonator, yielding the required PM detectors/sensors. Further, in conjunction with the virtual impactor and MEMS sensor additional elements are provided to exploit thermophoresis or di-electrophoresis such that the particles within the sensing area of the MEMS sensor can be removed.

The processor is further configured to determine whether the second orientation or position is valid based on the received data and to perform a response action responsive to determining that the second orientation or position is invalid due to the change of the first orientation or position of the portal system platform.

Abstract: A system and method is described for automated system health status determination, performance calibration, and configuration of a plurality of wireless identification (wireless ID) transceivers (or receivers) to prevent cross-receptions of wireless ID tags in adjacent wireless signal reception areas. Test wireless ID tags are positioned within the wireless signal reception area associated with each of the wireless ID antennas. The configuration parameters for each wireless ID transceiver are adjusted until only data from test wireless ID tags within the wireless signal reception area of the wireless ID antennas associated with that wireless ID transceiver are received by that wireless ID transceiver. Each wireless ID transceiver is configured with the configuration parameters that result in only data from the test wireless ID tags within the wireless signal reception area of the wireless ID antennas associated with that test wireless ID transceiver being received by that wireless ID transceiver.
