    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a sheet transport device is described. The sheet transport device includes a pickup roller to insert a sheet into a sheet path. A pair of separation rollers of the sheet transportation device form a nip that advances the sheet along the sheet path. A first separation shaft on which a first separation roller is disposed rotates in a first direction as the sheet is advanced and a second separation shaft on which a second separation roller is disposed also rotates in the first direction as the sheet is advanced. The second separation roller is driven in a second direction via a torque limiter. A motor rotates the shafts. A one-way clutch is disposed on the second separation shaft to disengage the second separation shaft from the motor when the motor is operating in a reverse mode.

    Abstract: An apparatus may include a processor that may be caused to access a plurality of measurements of a device. The processor may provide the plurality of measurements as an input to an autoencoder, the autoencoder being trained based on measurements of devices in working condition and access an output of the autoencoder, the output comprising a reconstruction of the input based on decoding an encoded version of the input. The processor may further be caused to determine whether the device will fail based on the output.
