Abstract: One example method involves operations for receiving a request to transform an input image into a target image. Operations further include providing the input image to a machine learning model trained to adapt images. Training the machine learning model includes accessing training data having a source domain of images and a target domain of images with a target style. Training further includes using a pre-trained generative model to generate an adapted source domain of adapted images having the target style. The adapted source domain is generated by determining a rate of change for parameters of the target style, generating weighted parameters by applying a weight to each of the parameters based on their respective rate of change, and applying the weighted parameters to the source domain. Additionally, operations include using the machine learning model to generate the target image by modifying parameters of the input image using the target style.

Abstract: A rotating equipment system with in-line drive-sense circuit (DSC) electric power signal processing includes rotating equipment, in-line drive-sense circuits (DSCs), and one or more processing modules. The in-line DSCs receive input electrical power signals and generate motor drive signals for the rotating equipment. An in-line DSC receives an input electrical power signal, processes it to generate and output a motor drive signal to the rotating equipment via a single line and simultaneously senses the motor drive signal via the single line. Based on the sensing of the motor drive signal via the single line, the in-line DSC provides a digital signal to the one or more processing modules that receive and process the digital signal to determine information regarding one or more operational conditions of the rotating equipment, and based thereon, selectively facilitate one or more adaptation operations on the motor drive signal via the in-line DSC.
