Abstract: A method of producing bioethanol in a bioethanol system and a control system for a bioethanol system is disclosed, the control system comprising a controller comprising one or more processors and an interface, wherein the one or more processors are configured to obtain a primary amino nitrogen (PAN) measurement; determine an input scheme based on the PAN measurement; and control one or more input devices of the bioethanol system according to the input scheme.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for probabilistically assigning weights to word senses and hypernyms of a word. The weights can be used in natural language processing applications such as information indexing and querying. A word hypernym weight (WHW) score can be determined by summing word sense probabilities of word senses from which the hypernym is inherited. WHW scores can be used to prune away hypernyms prior to indexing, to rank query results, and for other functions related to information indexing and querying. A semantic search technique can use WHW scores to retrieve an entry related to a word from an index in response to matching an indexed hypernym of the word with a query term applied to the index. More refined and accurate query results may be provided based on reduced user inputs.

Abstract: Word sense probabilities are compressed for storage in a semantic index. Each word sense for a word is mapped to one of a number of “buckets” by assigning a bucket score to the word sense. A scoring function is utilized to assign the bucket scores that maximizes the entropy of the assigned bucket scores. Once the bucket scores have been assigned to the word senses, the bucket scores are stored in the semantic index. The bucket scores stored in the semantic index may be utilized to prune one or more of the word senses prior to construction of the semantic index. The bucket scores may also be utilized to prune and rank the word senses at the time a query is performed using the semantic index.

Abstract: A golf car having a hydraulic fluid brake system. The hydraulic fluid brake system is implemented as a disk brake system which is responsive to hydraulic fluid pressure generated from a master cylinder. A brake pedal and associated linkage provides input to a master cylinder to generate a hydraulic fluid pressure to control a brake caliper assembly. The brake pedal has a range of travel, where a first portion of the range defines a service mode of operation and a second portion of the range defines a parking mode of operation. In the parking mode of operation, the brake pedal and linkage engages a detent to maintain application of the brake to provide a parking mode of operation. An accumulator in the brake system provides an input force to maintain hydraulic fluid pressure sufficient to retain a parking mode of operation.

Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems, devices, and methods for implementing an efficient and cost-effective automated content provider that effectively steers a user to relevant stored documents. Word or text features are extracted from user query language, and matched to substantially similar concept features. The concepts are organized in primary groups, such as Activities, Objects, Symptoms, and Products groups, which may be implemented as taxonomies. Documents that include the concept feature are tagged to that concept. A list of links or other document indicators tagged to the matched concepts is displayed for the user. Derived groups map relationships between concepts in the same or different primary groups, so that a particular matched concept results in the display of related concepts for restricting or otherwise changing the documents in play that are displayed for the user. This document also describes techniques for ranking the related concepts for display to the user.

Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for assisting a knowledge engineer in associating intelligence with content. An example system classifies a set of documents to concept nodes in a knowledge map that includes multiple taxonomies. A candidate feature extractor automatically extracts features from the documents. The candidate features are displayed with other information on a user-interface (UI). The other displayed information may include information regarding how relevant terms are to various concept nodes; such information may be obtained from a prior classification iteration. From the candidate features and accompanying information and/or personal knowledge, a knowledge engineer selects features and assigns the selected features to concept nodes. The documents are classified using the user-selected features and corresponding concept node assignments.
