Systems and methods are described for automatically identifying a food item. A color image and a thermal image are received by an electronic processor with a first food item in the field of view of both the color image and the thermal image. The electronic processor identifies a region of pixels in the color image that corresponds to the first food item based at least in part on a temperature intensity of the pixels in the identified region of pixels relative to other pixels in the thermal image. At least one feature is extracted from the identified region of pixels in the color image corresponding to the first food item and the electronic processor automatically identifies a type of food corresponding to the first food item based at least in part on the at least extracted feature.

A Brain-Mobile Interface (BMoI) system is provided. A control circuit is configured to execute a predictive model to generate a defined number of predicted signal features in future time based on a number of signal features extracted from a first type sensory data (e.g., electroencephalogram (EEG) data). A predicted future mental state(s) can thus be generated based on the number of predicted signal features and used to trigger a corresponding action(s) in a BMoI application(s). In a non-limiting example, a second type sensory data (e.g., electrocardiogram (ECG) data) can be used to improve accuracy of the predictive model. By using the predicted signal features to generate the predicted future mental state(s) to control the BMoI application(s), it is possible to duty-cycle the BMoI system to help reduce power consumption and processing latency, thus allowing the BMoI application(s) to operate in real-time with improved accuracy and power consumption.

Methods and systems are described for sensing and recovery of a biological signal using generative-model-based compressive sensing. A transformation is applied to sparsify the quasi-periodic signal removing morphology parameters and leaving temporal parameters. The sparsified signal is sampled and the sampled signal data is transmitted to a base station. A homotopy recovery algorithm is applied to the received sampled signal data by the base station to recover the temporal parameters of the biological signal. Generative modelling is applied using previously captured morphology parameters to generate a reconstructed signal. Finally, the reconstructed signal is adjusted and scaled based on the recovered temporal parameters to provide a reconstructed signal that is diagnostically equivalent to the original biological signal.

A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes establishing a communication pathway between a first network node and a second network node coupled to a network; forming an adjacency to a new network node coupled to the network, where a designated intermediate system (DIS) election operation is executed after the adjacency is formed in order to determine that the new network node is a newly identified DIS for the network; and communicating a message advertising connectivity to both a previously identified DIS and the newly identified DIS, where the message is communicated during a specified time interval.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving information on layer 2 topologies at a network device in a core network, mapping one or more Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) to the layer 2 topologies to provide differentiated services in said layer 2 topologies, defining multiple paths for each of the layer 2 topologies, and forwarding a packet received at the network device on one of the multiple paths. An apparatus and logic for providing differentiated services in layer 2 topologies is also disclosed.

摘要:
Determination of steam quality by passing one or more laser beams through steam in a steam chamber and directly determining a total number of vapor molecules and a total number of water molecules based on absorption of radiation in the one or more laser beams by the water vapor phase and the liquid water phase in the steam. Specific volumes of water vapor phase and liquid water phase in the steam using the total numbers of water vapor and liquid water molecules are determined and the quality of the steam is calculated based on the specific volumes of the water vapor phase and the liquid water phase in steam. One embodiment comprises a narrow linewidth laser for measuring steam quality and another embodiment comprises multiple broadband lasers for measuring steam quality.
