Abstract: A computer-implemented method for creating an encoder-decoder system for embedding information in a decorative label. The method includes defining a family of encoder functions and a family of decoder functions. Each encoder function of the family of encoder functions configured to encode information as a respective modification of a decorative label. Each decoder function of the family of decoder functions configured to decode an image of a modified decorative label into respective decoded information. The method includes applying an iterative optimization process to determine an optimized encoder-decoder pair. The optimized encoder-decoder air includes an optimized encoder function and an optimized decoder function. The optimized encoder function is selected by the iterative optimization process from the family of encoder functions and the optimized decoder function is selected by the iterative optimization process from the family of decoder functions.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to managing trading information. The method includes receiving voice communications between users, transforming voice communications into textual representations, generating trading records, generating confidence indicium for each trading record, selecting trading records based on confidence indicia, comparing a confidence indicium of first and second selected trading records with a first threshold, displaying the first selected trading record at a first location on a display when its confidence indicium exceeds the first threshold, and displaying the second selected trading record at a second location when its confidence indicium exceeds the first threshold. The method includes determining whether the first threshold has been edited.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to methods, systems, and devices for managing trading information. The method includes receiving non-indicative price information and indicative price information from communications between a representative user and customer users. The method includes categorizing indicative and non-indicative price information. The method includes generating candidate trading records, including indicative price candidate trading records and non-indicative price candidate trading records. The method includes generating a confidence indicia for each indicative price candidate trading record and non-indicative price candidate trading record.

Abstract: A slush-moulding method combined with cross-linking, including the filling of a tank with a suitable quantity of ground polymer blend and the coupling of said tank with a heated mold is provided. The closed system thus obtained is moved in order to transfer the powder onto the mold, so as to carry out on the latter a layer of completely or partially melted powder. Before and after a stage of stripping of the leather off the mold, said leather is cross-linked by means of radiations.
