A system trains a computer model to classify images and to draw bounding boxes around classified objects in the images. The system uses a combination of partially labeled training images and fully labeled training images to train a model, such as a neural network model. The fully labeled training images include a classification label indicating a class of object depicted in the image, and bounding box or coordinate labels indicating a number of objects of the class in the image as well as the location of the objects of the class in the image. The partially labeled training images include a classification label but no indication of where in the image any objects of the class are located. Training the model using both types of training data makes it possible for the model to recognize and locate objects of classes that lack available fully labeled training data.

Systems and methods of grading food items include a user customizable profile that allows a user to specify nutritional needs, dietary goals, or a medical state. The user profile is used to provide a user specific grade to one or more food items. This grade is configured for a user to compare food items and learn which provides better nutrition according to their profile. The user profile is optionally configured to take into account a medical state such as celiac disease, diabetes, or a nutritional deficiency. A grade can be provided for a single food item or to a list of food items.

An elastomeric fastener is configured for securing various articles. The elastomeric fasteners include one or more locking mechanisms. In various embodiments, the elastomeric fasteners are configured to secure an article of clothing, such as a shoe. The elastomeric fasteners may be used in combination to form an image.

A birdfeeder that is easily packed, delivered, assembled and disassembled. The birdfeeder is comprised of eight &#x215b;&#x2033; thick, flat parts that lock together by taking advantage of gravity and friction created by the use of a keyed mortise and tenon connection, such as that common to wood construction at the turn of the century. The eight parts disassembled pack flat as a kit for shipping and stocking. Once received the birdfeeder kit is easily assembled & disassembled, optionally without the use of tools or fasteners.

Embodiments of the invention provide a composite sheet for creating a customized design. The composite sheet includes a first fabric portion, a second fabric portion, and a membrane portion disposed between the first fabric portion and the second fabric portion, where the first fabric portion is sewn with stitching to the second fabric portion. One advantage of the composite sheet and related systems and methods is that users can create customized designs conveniently on their own home printer.

Systems and methods of generating a recycled output are disclosed. This recycled output may include a fabric produced by fusing reclaimed plastic bags. The reclaimed plastic bags are fused together using a material manufacturing system. This system is typically configured to heat the plastic bags to a temperature wherein the plastic bags fuse together but do completely melt. Some embodiments include the addition of different types of plastic or non-plastic materials to the recycled output. Also disclosed are systems and methods of controlling textures and patterns within the recycled output.
