Abstract: A system for transporting inventory items includes an inventory holder capable of storing inventory items and a mobile drive unit. The mobile drive unit is capable of moving to a first point with the inventory holder at least one of coupled to and supported by the mobile drive unit. The mobile drive unit is additionally capable of determining a location of the inventory holder and calculating a difference between the location of the inventory holder and the first point. The mobile drive unit is then capable of determining whether the difference is greater than a predetermined tolerance. In response to determining that the difference is greater than the predetermined tolerance, the mobile drive unit is also capable of moving to a second point based on the location of the inventory holder, docking with the inventory holder, and moving the mobile drive unit and the inventory holder to the first point.

Abstract: The present invention provides an adaptive process control and profit depiction system which is responsive to both process measurement input signals, economic inputs, and physical environment inputs. The process control system features an interactive optimization modeling system for determining manipulated process variables (also known as setpoints). These manipulated process variables are used to position mechanisms which control attributes of a manufacturing system, such as a valve controlling the temperature of a coolant or a valve controlling the flow rate in a steam line.

Abstract: For calculating optimum operation parameters of a BTG plant including a plurality of boilers having a linear input/output characteristic between an incoming fuel and steam output and a plurality of turbines having a non-convex input/output characteristic between the incoming steam which is an output of the boiler and power output, a dynamic programming process is performed twice and a linear programming process is performed once with respect to the steam and power to find, as an optimum solution, the power output of the turbines. Finally, an optimum solution is found in which a total fuel cost is minimized.

Abstract: A video encoder determines scaled transform coefficients, wherein determining the scaled transform coefficients comprises scaling transform coefficients of a block of the video data according to a given quantization step. The video encoder determines scalar quantized coefficients, wherein determining the scalar quantized coefficients comprises applying scalar quantization to the scaled transform coefficients of the block. Additionally, the video encoder applies a neural network that determines a respective set of probabilities for each respective transform coefficient of the block. The respective set of probabilities for the respective transform coefficient includes a respective probability value for each possible adjustment value in a plurality of possible adjustment values. Inputs to the neural network include the scaled transform coefficients and the scalar quantized coefficients. The video encoder determines, based on the set of probabilities for a particular transform coefficient of the block, a quantization level for the particular transform coefficient.

Abstract: Various embodiments enable a robot, or other autonomous or semi-autonomous device or system, to receive data involving the performance of a task in the physical world. The data can be provided as input to a perception network to infer a set of percepts about the task, which can correspond to relationships between objects observed during the performance. The percepts can be provided as input to a plan generation network, which can infer a set of actions as part of a plan. Each action can correspond to one of the observed relationships. The plan can be reviewed and any corrections made, either manually or through another demonstration of the task. Once the plan is verified as correct, the plan (and any related data) can be provided as input to an execution network that can infer instructions to cause the robot, and/or another robot, to perform the task.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for determining a plan to optimize key performance indicators (KPIs) of an industrial process. Such a plan is determined based on generating a query for information associated with the KPIs and based on receiving user-provided object information corresponding to the KPIs. The method includes receiving, at a user interface, one or more KPIs associated with an industrial process. The method includes generating, based on the one or more KPIs, at least one query for information associated with the KPI. The method includes receiving, at the user interface, a response to the at least one query. The method includes determining, by an artificial intelligence agent, a plan for optimizing the KPI.
