Abstract: Controlling a heating process is provided. An image of a raw food item is captured. Using a generative model, synthesized images of the cooked food are generated at different levels of doneness based on the raw image. A selection of one of the synthesized cooked images is received. The food item is cooked to the levels of doneness corresponding to the one of the synthesized cooked images.

Abstract: Inferring the laundry cycle type for a load of laundry items is provided. Measurements are performed of a laundry load in a drum of a laundry appliance during a pre-rinse cycle, the measurements including one or more of an absorption ratio of the laundry load, a retention ratio of the laundry load, a dry mass of the laundry load, a wet mass of the laundry load, or a spun mass of the laundry load. A model is used to determine load parameters based on the measurements. The load parameters are used to determine a laundry cycle type for the laundry load.

Abstract: A cooking appliance having a cabinet including an insert within the cabinet to define cooking chamber with an access opening and a door selectively closing/opening the access opening, the cooking appliance comprising at least one of a first cooling flow path through a back wall of the cabinet, over a top wall of the insert, and out a side wall of the cabinet, a second cooling flow path through a bottom wall of the cabinet, along the bottom wall of the cabinet, and out a side wall of the cabinet, and a third cooling flow path through a bottom wall of the cabinet, out a front wall of the cabinet, into the door, out of the door, into a front wall of the cabinet, and out of a side wall of the cabinet.

Abstract: A method for controlling a heating process may include recognizing a food class of a food item, defining a target doneness score for the food item based on at least one of the food class and a desired doneness level, receiving a food humidity level, receiving a cavity humidity level, receiving a cavity temperature, determining a current doneness score of the food item according to the food humidity level, the cavity humidity level and the cavity temperature, and utilizing the current doneness score and the target doneness score to control a heating system to cook the food item.

Abstract: An automatic oven having a controller and a sensor assembly for automatically determining a food type for a food item placed in a cooking chamber of the automatic oven, and cooks the automatically determined food item according to a cooking profile selected based on the determined food type, while optionally accommodating a user input on the determining of the food type, and the cooking profile, including an optional degree of doneness.

Abstract: A cooking appliance can include a cooking chamber and an imaging device for capturing an image of a food item inside the chamber. The appliance can include a transparent, touchscreen display for displaying the interior contents of the cooking appliance to a user without requiring the user to open the cooking appliance, as well as providing for the user controlling, operating, and interacting with the cooking appliance.

Abstract: A food class of a food item is recognized. A target doneness score is defined for the food item based on the food class and a desired doneness level. A recurrent model is utilized to determine a current doneness score of the food item according to sensor data captured of the food item. The current doneness score and the target doneness score are utilized to control a heating system to cook the food item.
