  • Patent number: 11157819
    Abstract: Methods and systems may provide for technology to generate a plurality of predictions associated with a test period based on an analytics model and generate an error model of the plurality of predictions based on first non-parametric time series data associated with the test period, wherein the error model is to be generated independently of the analytics model. Additionally, the technology may automatically determine an interval based on the error model, the first non-parametric time series data and a margin of error input, wherein the interval is to include an upper bound on a scale associated with the first non-parametric time series data at a time instance in a forecast period and a lower bound on the scale at the time instance.

  • Patent number: 7891734
    Abstract: A vehicle seat with an active head restraint system is provided with a seatback frame having a pair of side members. An armature extends transversely between the side members with a pair of lateral ends each pivotally connected to one of the side members. A head restraint rod extends from the armature for supporting a head restraint. An actuator is mounted to the seatback frame for actuating the armature. A bushing is mounted to the frame, the armature or the actuator. A rivet is mounted to the bushing and another of the frame, armature and actuator. The rivet preloads the bushing to minimize inadvertent movement at the connection. A method for assembling a vehicle seat is provided wherein the bushing is preassembled to the rivet. Another method for assembling a vehicle seat is provided wherein the rivet preloads the bushing to minimize inadvertent movement at the connection.
