According to one embodiment, an article recognition apparatus includes an image interface, a weight interface and a processor. The image interface acquires an image captured by photographing a predetermined place where a plurality of articles are disposed. The processor acquires a first image, acquires a second image after detecting a predetermined event, recognizes an article, based on an image of an article area of an article which is absent in the second image, among article areas extracted from the first image, acquires a registered weight of the recognized article from an article database, and outputs an error if total of the registered weights disagrees with a difference weight between a first weight which a weight scale measures at a time of photographing the first image, and a second weight which the weight scale measures at a time of photographing the second image.

A method of determining and identifying acceptable and unacceptable ranges of loads applied to a nose landing gear of an aircraft on the ground during passenger loading and unloading events. A method of determining and identifying acceptable and unacceptable ranges of loads applied to a nose landing gear of an aircraft on the ground during baggage and cargo loading and unloading events. A method of determining and identifying acceptable and unacceptable ranges of loads applied to a main landing gear of an aircraft on the ground during a fuel loading event. A method for aircraft flight crew and ground support personnel to monitor and identify in real-time, unanticipated loads experienced by the aircraft landing gear; to better manage the loading and unloading of passengers, baggage and cargo to and from an aircraft. Pressure sensors are attached to telescopic landing gear, which monitor the working pressure within the aircraft landing gear, and further identify and illuminate an onboard indicator to recognize unanticipated loads experienced by the nose landing gear during the passenger movement within the aircraft cabin while the aircraft is on the ground. Unbalanced fuel loading is recognized by asymmetrical pressures within the main landing gear struts, and identified during the aircraft fueling process.

Reducing an average give-away rate of a weighing device by determining a weight of a product of a weighing device that includes an article, determining one or more conditions of an environment of the weighing device, determining a state of the environment of the weighing device, wherein the state relates to an average give-away rate of the environment of the weighing device, determining a reward value for the state of the environment of the weighing device, wherein the reward value is based at least in part on the weight of the product, and generating a set of parameters for the weighing device based at least in part on the environment, the state, and the reward.

A weighing device includes: a weighing scale that measures a weight of a good; a communication interface that outputs goods purchase information including a purchase weight value based on a measured value by the weighing scale; and a central processing unit (CPU). In response to the CPU detecting that the measured value by the weighing scale has increased from zero to a positive value and then decreased from the positive value to zero, the communication interface outputs, as the purchase weight value, goods purchase information including the positive value.
