Abstract: Techniques are provided for evaluating and defining the scope of data-driven deep learning models. In one embodiment, a machine-readable storage medium is provided comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising employing a machine learning model to extract first training data features included in a training data set and first target data features included in a target data set. The operations further comprise determining whether the target data set is within a defined data scope of the training data set based on analysis of correspondences between the first training data features and the first target data feature, and determining whether application of the target data set to a target neural network model developed using the training data set will generate results with an acceptable level of accuracy based on whether the target data set is within the defined data scope.

Abstract: A coffee bean roasting machine includes a roast chamber for accommodating coffee beans, a hot blast device for supplying hot or cool air to the roast chamber, and a collection chamber for collecting the outer skins of coffee beans. The collection chamber is in communication with the roast chamber and the bottom of the roast chamber includes a first bean outlet where a chamber door is set for open and close. Coffee beans can be easily taken out from the coffee bean roasting machine, without lifting up the whole roasting machine and tipping it over.

Abstract: A firmware updating method and a firmware updating system are provided. A host can individually transmit firmware update files to a terminal device, and the host checks by an algorithm whether each of the firmware update files needs to be compressed before each of the firmware update files is transmitted. For the firmware update file that needs to be compressed, the host uses a compression algorithm to reduce a file size of the firmware update file.
