Patent CA-2459722-A1 (CA)
Title: Pliable air duct with dust and condensation repellency
Inventor: GEBKE KEVIN
IPC: F24F13/06
Filed: 2002-09-13
Abstract: A fabric air duct (10) with main discharge openings (16) includes additional, much smaller openings (20) that help ventilate the surface of the duct (10).  Ventilating the surface of the duct (10) with a slight yet even amount of airflow helps inhibit the accumulation of condensate and dust on the surface of the duct. In some embodiments, the duct includes a pliable sheet consisting of a rather porous fabric base material. To achieve an appropriately low level of airflow, a plastic coating on the fabric reduces, but does not eliminate the fabric's porosity. A calendering process then reduces the porosity even further. In other embodiments, the pliable sheet is substantially air impermeable, except for its main discharge openings. The sheet is then perforated with numerous smaller openings to achieve the desired amount of surface ventilation.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for training a neural network model (21) to classify patterns (26) or to assess the value of decisions associated with patterns by comprising the actual output of the network in response to an input pattern with the desired output for that pattern on the basis of a Risk Differential Learning (RDL) objective function (28), the results of the comparison governing adjustment of the neural network model's parameters by numerical optimization. The RDL objective function includes one or more terms, each being a risk/benefit/classification figure-of-merit (RBCFM) function, which is a synthetic, monotonically non-decreasing, anti-symmetric/asymmetric, piecewise-differentiable function of a risk differential (Fig. 6), which is the difference between outputs of the neural network model produced in response to a given input pattern. Each RBCFM function has mathematical attributes such that RDL can make universal guarantees of maximum correctness/profitability and minimum complexity. A strategy for profit-maximizing resource allocation utilizing RDL is also disclosed.
