Amazon Translate is a neural machine translation service that delivers fast, high-quality, and affordable language translation. Neural machine translation is a form of language translation automation that uses deep learning models to deliver more accurate translation than traditional statistical and rule-based translation algorithms. 

Restructuring added to the toll of a difficult market. Horticulture provides a bright spot. Meanwhile, Carlyle and Bain could still acquire the company.

Silicon Valley start-up Pre-Switch is showing a 200kW silicon carbide soft-switching automotive inverter at PCIM in Germany this week. Called CleanWave, it is an “evaluation system that enables power design engineers to investigate the accuracy of the company’s soft switching architecture and platform over varying load, temperature, device tolerance and degradation conditions”, according to Pre-Switch. …

LEM has introduced a digital signal processor for Rogowski coil outputs at PCIM in Nuremberg. Rogowski coils are handy for current measurement because they simply wrap around the conductor carrying that current. However, they produce an output voltage proportional to the derivative of the primary current they are sensing, and therefore need an electrical integrator to …
