  • Publication number: 20230306268
    Abstract: A method for operating at least one trained classifier for measurement data. The classifier comprises a neural network with at least one feature extraction section and at least one classification section. The method includes: processing a record of measurement data with at least the feature extraction section of the classifier; determining a set of neurons in the feature extraction section that are activated by said processing; determining, from a given correspondence between activated neurons and attributes, a set of attributes whose presence in a scene captured by the measurement data is indicated by the activated neurons; comparing attributes to which classes are linked by a given knowledge graph with said determined set of attributes; and evaluating, from the result of this comparison, at least one estimated class as a class to which the scene captured by the record of measurement data is likely to belong.

  • Publication number: 20130212937
    Abstract: Biochar machine includes a sealed container for rice straw bales with two gates. The top gate is for rice straw feeding and the bottom gate for Biochar. The Biochar unit is equipped with a stirrer operated by an electric motor and a speed reduction unit. The Biochar unit is operated indirectly through a combustion chamber with a fuel burner to heat the sealed container from all sides indirectly. The gases produced as a result of heating the rice straw are collected and returned back to the combustion chamber through a blower.

  • Patent number: 6224112
    Abstract: A casing slip joint has been invented that has a first tubular casing member disposed around and releasably connected to a second casing member, the second casing member within and surrounded by the first casing member. Self-destructive shear screws according to the present invention releasably hold the first casing member to the second casing member. In one aspect, a shear screw according to this invention has an outer shear screw with a central recess and an inner member therein. In one aspect the outer shear screw is made of one metal and the inner screw is made of another so that contact by a well fluid sets up a galvanic cell that produces stress corrosion cracking in the outer shear screw that weakens it and/or destroys it. The propagation of such cracks is facilitated by placing one or more notches or recesses in the body of the components.
