Abstract: A cutting deck lifting device for adjusting the height of the cutting deck of a mower includes a cutting deck having at least one cutting blade mounted thereto, a pedal assembly including a pedal switched between locking and unlocking states for adjusting the height of the cutting deck, a connecting assembly connecting the pedal assembly to the cutting deck and an adjusting assembly connected to the pedal assembly for positioning the cutting deck to a position with a desired height when the pedal is switched between locking and unlocking states. The cutting deck lifting device can conveniently and quickly adjust the cutting deck between the first position and the second position. Simultaneously, the cutting deck lifting device has a simple structure, a low manufacturing cost, and easy installation, and can be applied to a variety of garden tools.

Abstract: A system includes a narrative repository which stores a plurality of narratives and, for each narrative, a corresponding outcome. A narrative evaluator receives the plurality of narratives and the outcome for each narrative. For each received narrative, a subset of the narrative is determined to retain based on rules. For each determined subset, a entropy matrix is determined which includes, for each word in the subset, a measure associated with whether the word is expected to appear in a sentence with another word in the subset. For each entropy matrix, a distance matrix is determined which includes, for each word in the subset, a numerical representation of a difference in meaning of the word and another word. Using one or more distance matrix(es), a first threshold distance is determined for a first word of the subset. The first word and first threshold are stored as a first word-threshold pair associated with the first outcome.
