  • Patent number: 10726203
    Abstract: System(s)/method(s) relate to machine learning to automatically respond for troubleshooting a device. A programmed computer system obtains a training dataset from at least one database including historical customer complaint records and maintenance service records with resolution codes. The training dataset is parsed by a natural language extraction engine to extract data including extracting keyword data from the historical customer complaint records. The extracted data is grouped into bags-of-words with a natural language association engine. The bags-of-words are mapped to one or more of the resolution codes with an SVM to provide corresponding mapping vectors. A current customer complaint record is received and information therein is parsed to provide a request bag-of-words. One or more of the mapping vectors having one or more most likely fits to the request bag-of-words is determined. One or more of the resolution codes associated with the one or more of the mapping vectors is provided.

  • Patent number: 8418932
    Abstract: A wheel guard apparatus capable of preventing a wheel from derailing and preventing a vehicle from seriously deviating from a track even if the wheel has derailed includes a fixed portion fixed to a railroad tie located between main line rails; a movable portion supported by a rotating shaft provided on the fixed portion and extending in a horizontal direction and configured to be rotatable around the rotating shaft toward a track center side; and a guard rail located at a position separated from the rotating shaft of the movable portion and held to extend in parallel with the main line rail. The guard rail includes an outer stopper portion configured to prevent the wheel from derailing toward an inner side of the main line rail and an inner stopper portion configured to prevent a derailed vehicle from deviating to an outer side of a track.

  • Publication number: 20060126115
    Abstract: In order to carry out a printing operation without waiting for a while in the case in which a printing device receiving printing job data cannot execute the printing operation for some reason, a plurality of printing devices (100) which are network-connected are formed into groups based on a processable language and one of the printing devices belonging to the same language group is caused to act as a managing printing device. The managing printing device receives a status signal from all the printing devices belonging to the same language group, and distributes the printing job data transmitted from the printing device to the other printing devices belonging to the same language group when any of the printing devices cannot carry out the printing operation. In this case, one printing device for supporting a plurality of languages can be set as a managing printing device which is common to each group.

  • Publication number: 20040150738
    Abstract: In a camera conducting a pre-photographing and a main-photographing for conducting a displaying-at-long-time-exposure, the displaying-at-long-time-exposure is continued still after main-photographing starts. Since the displaying a pre-taken image and the renewing the predicted images thereafter start from the time point, at which a release button is full-pressed, a user can confirm the predicted images in almost real time during the long-time-exposure is conducted.
