Abstract: A plurality of different images of a same region of interest in an object are input into a set of neural networks, wherein each image of the region has been captured under a different value of a variable condition. A classification for each image is generated by the set of neural networks, wherein each classification includes a confidence score in a prediction of whether a feature is present in the region. The image classifications are ensembled to generate a final classification for the region. By applying a loss function, a loss is computed based on comparing the final classification to a ground truth of whether the feature is present in the region. The parameters of the set of neural networks are adjusted based on the computed loss.

Abstract: An area of a graphical user interface that potentially comprises an actionable graphical object is identified. An actional graphical object is an object that generates an event when clicked on. For example, an actional graphical object may be a button, a menu, a menu item, a check box, a text field, a text area, a tab, and/or the like. A cursor movement is generated in the area of the graphical user interface (e.g., using a grid). The cursor movement uses a scanning process to a detect a change in a cursor type (e.g., from an arrow cursor to a link cursor). In response to detecting the change in the cursor type, the actionable graphical object is identified in the area of the graphical interface. The actionable graphical object may then be integrated into a testing process to validate the graphical user interface.

Abstract: An image of a graphical user interface is captured. A process is started to record identification of a graphical object (e.g., a text field) in the image of the graphical user interface. Recording identification of the graphical object in the image of the graphical user interface is based on machine learning. An end to the process to record identification of the graphical object in the image of the graphical user interface is identified. A machine learned software object is updated. For example, the machine learned software object is updated with a location of the graphical object. The updated machine learned software object then is used to test the graphical object. For example, to automatically fill in the text field using a test script.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device and method for reducing combustion cone fallout propensity and stabilizing loss of tobacco from ends. Firstly, the right installation positioning hole is moved rightwards to extend the distance of the separation zone. Meanwhile, the vibration mechanism is redesigned so that it is enabled to move toward the lower right of the material groove body. Therefore, there is enough space to install the separation screen in the separation zone. Finally, the separation screen is installed. The tobacco scraps are separated out when they pass through the separation screen, thus reducing cone dropping when the cigarette burns, stabilizing the amount of dropping tobacco at the end, and improving the smoking experience and recognition of customers with regard to cigarette products.
