A neural network includes inputs for receiving input signals, synapses connected to the inputs and having corrective weights, and neurons having outputs connected with the inputs via the synapses. Each neuron generates a neuron sum by summing corrective weights selected from the respective synapse. A controller receives a desired output signal, determines a deviation of the neuron sum from the desired output signal value, and modifies respective corrective weights using the determined deviation. Adding up the modified corrective weights to determine the neuron sum minimizes the deviation and trains the network. A structure-forming module rearranges connections between network elements during the training and a signal allocation module distributes the input signals among the network elements during the training. A training module commands and coordinates operation of the structure-forming and the signal allocation modules and the controller to reorganize the network structure during the training to control the training in real time in real-time.

A method of stacking a plurality of absorbent sheet products is provided. In an embodiment, the method includes folding an absorbent sheet inwardly along a first folding line to form a first inner panel, folding the absorbent sheet inwardly along a second folding line, substantially parallel to the first folding line, to form a second inner panel, folding the absorbent sheet along a third folding line substantially perpendicular to the first and the second folding lines to form a first outer panel and a second outer panel, sandwiching the first and the second inner panels therebetween to obtain one of the absorbent sheet products, and inserting at least a section of at least one of the first and the second outer panels of each one of the absorbent sheet products between the first and the second outer panels of an adjacent one of absorbent sheet products of the stack.

A stack of interfolded absorbent sheet products comprising a plurality of absorbent sheets and a method of folding and stacking the same. Each one of the absorbent sheets is folded twice about a first axis to define two inwardly folded inner panels and at least once about a second axis to define at least two outer panels sandwiching the inner panels therebetween. The second axis is substantially perpendicular to the first axis, Each of the absorbent sheet products comprises at least one outer panel at least partially sandwiched between a pair of outer panels of an adjacent one of the absorbent sheet products of the stack. Each one of the absorbent sheet products is entirely detached from all other absorbent sheet products of the stack.

A lint retention apparatus for a laundry drying appliance has a lint separator, upstream of which a lint wetter is connected. A laundry drying appliance has a laundry drum and a process air condenser, which are connected by way of a process air channel conducting process air. It also has a lint separator disposed in the process air channel for flow purposes downstream of the laundry drum and upstream of the process air condenser, wherein a lint wetter is disposed for flow purposes downstream of the laundry drum and upstream of the lint separator.

A water-conducting household appliance having a rotatable component, which is rotatably mounted on a stationary component of the household appliance by way of a bearing formed from a metallic material, and having a sealing element, by means of which the bearing is sealed off from a liquid chamber of the household appliance, wherein a contact surface of the sealing element is in contact with a contact surface of a shaft part which is connected to the moveable component and can be rotated relative to the sealing element, and slides on the contact surface of the shaft part. A pump is on at least one of the contact surfaces, by means of which liquid can be conveyed out of an intermediate space embodied between the respective contact surfaces in the direction of the liquid chamber when rotating the rotatable component.

Broadband output high power pulsed flash lamps are useful in many applications, and when specifically optimized, can become an excellent source of ultraviolet (UV) light, which is particularly useful for photo-chemically-induced materials processing applications. Multiple factors involved with the production of high-energy light pulses can in certain cases adversely affect the ultraviolet lamp operation, thereby resulting in the development of micro cracks in lamp envelopes and subsequent limitation in lamp lifetime. Similar factors can be responsible for an increased absorption of UV radiation by lamp components and degradation of lamp efficiency. This invention describes new pulsed flash lamp designs that enable a new generation of high power and performance as required by, for example, many large-scale photo-processing applications. This invention uniquely and advantageously mitigates the development of micro-cracks and failure, and produces dramatically improved electrical efficiency, stability of lamp optical characteristics, and service lifetime.
