  • Self-driving vehicles offer their riders greatly increased opportunity to engage with in- vehicle interfaces, such as touch screens, virtual assistants, entertainment system interfaces, communication interfaces, navigation interfaces, and the like. While systems exist to display the interface of a rider’s mobile device on an in-vehicle interface, the content displayed on a mobile device screen is not necessarily tuned to the unique situation of a rider in a vehicle. In fact, riders in vehicles may be collectively quite different in their immediate needs from other individuals who engage with the interfaces, as the presence in the vehicle itself tends to indicate a number of things that are different from a user sitting at home, sitting at a desk, or walking around.
  • Searches typically include keyword entry, which may include natural language text entry or spoken queries. Queries are processed to provide search results, in one or more lists or menu elements, often involving delineation between sponsored results and non-sponsored results. Ranking algorithms typically factor in a wide range of inputs, in particular the extent of utility (such as indicated by engagement, clicking, attention, navigation, purchasing, viewing, listening, or the like) of a given search result to other users, such that more useful items are promoted higher in lists.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[00002] The present disclosure relates to transportation and related methods and systems including an intelligent digital twin system that creates, manages, and provides digital twins for transportation systems using sensor data and other data, quantum computing methods and systems, including a set of quantum computing services, and biology-based systems and methods for communicating and/or handling data.
BACKGROUND
[00003] A digital twin is a digital informational construct about a machine, physical device, system, process, person, etc. Once created, the digital twin can be used to represent the machine in a digital representation of a real-world system. The digital twin is created such that it is identical in form and behavior of the corresponding machine. Additionally, the digital twin may mirror the status of the machine within a greater system. For example, sensors may be placed on the machine to capture real-time (or near real-time) data from the physical object to relay it back to a remote digital twin.
[00004] Some digital twins may be used to simulate or otherwise mimic the operation of a machine or physical device within a virtual world. In doing so, the digital twins may display structural components of the machine, show steps in lifecycle and/or design, and be viewable via a user interface.
[00005] The proliferation of sensor, network, and communication technologies in transportation systems generates vast amounts of data. This data can be useful in predicting the need for maintenance and for classifying potential issues in the transportation systems. There are, however, many unexplored uses for transportation system sensor data that can improve the operation and uptime of the transportation systems and provide transportation entities with agility in responding to conditions before the conditions can increase in severity.
[00006] Acquiring large data sets from thousands, or potentially millions of devices (containing large numbers of sensors) distributed across multiple locations has become more typical. For example, there is a proliferation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags to individual goods in retail stores. The challenge is that this vast number of data streams overwhelms both the ability to transmit the data and the ability to create effective automated centralized decisions. There exists a need in the art for biology-based communications and data handling.

For example, a robot may include vision and sensing systems that are used by its central control system to identify and move through an environment in real time. The intake management system may facilitate robot decision-making by parsing, filtering, classifying, or otherwise reducing the size and increasing the utility of multiple large datasets that would otherwise overwhelm the central control system. In embodiments, the intake management system may include an intake controller that works with an intelligence service to evaluate incoming data and take actions-based evaluation results. Evaluations and actions may include specific instruction sets received by the thalamus service, for example the use of a set of specific compression and prioritization tools stipulated within a “Networking” library module.

In cases involving memory-based retraining, the memory may include original/historical training data and refined training data. The DPANN system may include a dual process learning function (DPLF) configured to manage and perform an ongoing data retention process.

[00414] Referring to Fig.1, an architecture for a transportation system 111 is depicted, showing certain illustrative components and arrangements relating to certain embodiments described herein. The transportation system 111 may include one or more vehicles 110, which may include various mechanical, electrical, and software components and systems, such as a powertrain 113, a suspension system 117, a steering system, a braking system, a fuel system, a charging system, seats 128, a combustion engine, an electric vehicle drive train, a transmission 119, a gear set, and the like. The vehicle may have a vehicle user interface 123, which may include a set of interfaces that include a steering system, buttons, levers, touch screen interfaces, audio interfaces, and the like as described throughout this disclosure. The vehicle may have a set of sensors 125 (including cameras 127), such as for providing input to expert system/artificial intelligence features described throughout this disclosure, such as one or more neural networks (which may include hybrid neural networks 147 as described herein). Sensors 125 and/or external information may be used to inform the expert system/Artificial Intelligence (AI) system 136 and to indicate or track one or more vehicle states 144, such as vehicle operating states 345 (Fig. 3), user experience states 346 (Fig. 3), and others described herein, which also may be as inputs to or taken as outputs from a set of expert system/AI components. Routing information 143 may inform and take input from the expert system/AI system 136, including using in-vehicle navigation capabilities and external navigation capabilities, such as Global Position System (GPS), routing by triangulation (such as cell towers), peer-to-peer routing with other vehicles 121, and the like. A collaboration engine 129 may facilitate collaboration among vehicles and/or among users of vehicles, such as for managing collective experiences, managing fleets and the like. Vehicles 110 may be networked among each other in a peer-to-peer manner, such as using cognitive radio, cellular, wireless or other networking features. An AI system 136 or other expert systems may take as input a wide range of vehicle parameters 130, such as from onboard diagnostic systems, telemetry systems, and other software systems, as well as from vehicle-located sensors 125 and from external systems. In embodiments, the system may manage a set of feedback/rewards 148, incentives, or the like, such as to induce certain user behavior and/or to provide feedback to the AI system 136, such as for learning on a set of outcomes to accomplish a given task or objective. The expert system or AI system 136 may inform, use, manage, or take output from a set of algorithms 149, including a wide variety as described herein. In the example of the present disclosure depicted in Fig.1, a data processing system 162, is connected to the hybrid neural network 147. The data processing system 162 may process data from various sources (see Fig.7). In the example of the present disclosure depicted in Fig.1, a system user interface 163, is connected to the hybrid neural network 147. See the disclosure, below, relating to Fig.6 for further disclosure relating to interfaces. Fig.1 shows that vehicle surroundings 164 may be part of the transportation system 111. Vehicle surroundings may include roadways, weather conditions, lighting conditions, etc. Fig.1 shows that devices 165, for example, mobile phones and computer systems, navigation systems, etc., may be connected to various elements of the transportation system 111, and therefore may be part of the transportation system 111 of the present disclosure. [00415] Referring to Fig.2, provided herein are transportation systems having a hybrid neural network 247 for optimizing a powertrain 213 of a vehicle, wherein at least two parts of the hybrid neural network 247 optimize distinct parts of the powertrain 213. An artificial intelligence system may control a powertrain component 215 based on an operational model (such as a physics model, an electrodynamic model, a hydrodynamic model, a chemical model, or the like for energy conversion, as well as a mechanical model for operation of various dynamically interacting system components). For example, the AI system may control a powertrain component 215 by manipulating a powertrain operating parameter 260 to achieve a powertrain state 261. The AI system may be trained to operate a powertrain component 215, such as by training on a data set of outcomes (e.g., fuel efficiency, safety, rider satisfaction, or the like) and/or by training on a data set of operator actions (e.g., driver actions sensed by a sensor set, camera or the like or by a vehicle information system). In embodiments, a hybrid approach may be used, where one neural network optimizes one part of a powertrain (e.g., for gear shifting operations), while another neural network optimizes another part (e.g., braking, clutch engagement, or energy discharge and recharging, among others). Any of the powertrain components described throughout this disclosure may be controlled by a set of control instructions that consist of output from at least one component of a hybrid neural network 247.

[00422] In various embodiments, transportation systems 111 as described herein may include vehicles (including fleets and other sets of vehicles), as well as various infrastructure systems. Infrastructure systems may include Internet of Things systems (such as using cameras and other sensors, such as disposed on or in roadways, on or in traffic lights, utility poles, toll booths, signs and other roadside devices and systems, on or in buildings, and the like), refueling and recharging systems (such as at service stations, charging locations and the like, and including wireless recharging systems that use wireless power transfer), and many others. [00423] Vehicle electrical, mechanical and/or powertrain components as described herein may include a wide range of systems, including transmission, gear system, clutch system, braking system, fuel system, lubrication system, steering system, suspension system, lighting system (including emergency lighting as well as interior and exterior lights), electrical system, and various subsystems and components thereof. [00424] Vehicle operating states and parameters may include route, purpose of trip, geolocation, orientation, vehicle range, powertrain parameters, current gear, speed/acceleration, suspension profile (including various parameters, such as for each wheel), charge state for electric and hybrid vehicles, fuel state for fueled vehicles, and many others as described throughout this disclosure. [00425] Rider and/or user experience states and parameters as described throughout this disclosure may include emotional states, comfort states, psychological states (e.g., anxiety, nervousness, relaxation or the like), awake/asleep states, and/or states related to satisfaction, alertness, health, wellness, one or more goals or objectives, and many others.

[00426] In embodiments, a route may be ascribed various parameters of value, such as parameters of value that may be optimized to improve user experience or other factors, such as under control of an AI system/expert system. Parameters of value of a route may include speed, duration, on time arrival, length (e.g., in miles), goals (e.g., to see a Point of Interest (POI), to complete a task (e.g., complete a shopping list, complete a delivery schedule, complete a meeting, or the like), refueling or recharging parameters, game-based goals, and others. As one of many examples, a route may be attributed value, such as in a model and/or as an input or feedback to an AI system or expert system that is configured to optimize a route, for task completion. A user may, for example, indicate a goal to meet up with at least one of a set of friends during a weekend, such as by interacting with a user interface or menu that allows setting of objectives. A route may be configured (including with inputs that provide awareness of friend locations, such as by interacting with systems that include location information for other vehicles and/or awareness of social relationships, such as through social data feeds) to increase the likelihood of meeting up, such as by intersecting with predicted locations of friends (which may be predicted by a neural network or other AI system/expert system as described throughout this disclosure) and by providing in-vehicle messages (or messages to a mobile device) that indicates possible opportunities for meeting up. [00427] Market feedback factors may be used to optimize various elements of transportation systems as described throughout this disclosure, such as current and predicted pricing and/or cost (e.g., of fuel, electricity and the like, as well as of goods, services, content and the like that may be available along the route and/or in a vehicle), current and predicted capacity, supply and/or demand for one or more transportation related factors (such as fuel, electricity, charging capacity, maintenance, service, replacement parts, new or used vehicles, capacity to provide ride sharing, self-driving vehicle capacity or availability, and the like), and many others. [00428] An interface in or on a vehicle may include a negotiation system, such as a bidding system, a price-negotiating system, a reward-negotiating system, or the like. For example, a user may negotiate for a higher reward in exchange for agreeing to re-route to a merchant location, a user may name a price the user is willing to pay for fuel (which may be provided to nearby refueling stations that may offer to meet the price), or the like. Outputs from negotiation (such as agreed prices, trips and the like) may automatically result in reconfiguration of a route, such as one governed by an AI system/expert system. [00429] Rewards, such as provided by a merchant or a host, among others, as described herein may include one or more coupons, such as redeemable at a location, provision of higher priority (such as in collective routing of multiple vehicles), permission to use a “Fast Lane,” priority for charging or refueling capacity, among many others. Actions that can lead to rewards in a vehicle may include playing a game, downloading an app, driving to a location, taking a photograph of a location or object, visiting a website, viewing or listening to an advertisement, watching a video, and many others. [00430] In embodiments, an AI system/expert system may use or optimize one or more parameters for a charging plan, such as for charging a battery of an electric or hybrid vehicle. Charging plan parameters may include routing (such as to charging locations), amount of charge or fuel provided, duration of time for charging, battery state, battery charging profile, time required to charge, value of charging, indicators of value, market price, bids for charging, available supply capacity (such as within a geofence or within a range of a set of vehicles), demand (such as based on detected charge/refueling state, based on requested demand, or the like), supply, and others. A neural network or other systems (optionally a hybrid system as described herein), using a model or algorithm (such as a genetic algorithm) may be used (such as by being trained over a set of trials on outcomes, and/or using a training set of human created or human supervised inputs, or the like) may provide a favorable and/or optimized charging plan for a vehicle or a set of vehicles based on the parameters. Other inputs may include priority for certain vehicles (e.g., for emergency responders or for those who have been rewarded priority in connection with various embodiments described herein). [00431] In embodiments, a processor, as described herein, may comprise a neural processing chip, such as one employing a fabric, such as a LambdaFabric. Such a chip may have a plurality of cores, such as 256 cores, where each core is configured in a neuron-like arrangement with other cores on the same chip. Each core may comprise a micro-scale digital signal processor, and the fabric may enable the cores to readily connect to the other cores on the chip. In embodiments, the fabric may connect a large number of cores (e.g., more than 500,000 cores) and/or chips, thereby facilitating use in computational environments that require, for example, large scale neural networks, massively parallel computing, and large-scale, complex conditional logic. In embodiments, a low-latency fabric is used, such as one that has latency of 400 nanoseconds, 300 nanoseconds, 200 nanoseconds, 100 nanoseconds, or less from device-to-device, rack-to-rack, or the like. The chip may be a low power chip, such as one that can be powered by energy harvesting from the environment, from an inspection signal, from an onboard antenna, or the like. In embodiments, the cores may be configured to enable application of a set of sparse matrix heterogeneous machine learning algorithms. The chip may run an object-oriented programming language, such as C++, Java, or the like. In embodiments, a chip may be programmed to run each core with a different algorithm, thereby enabling heterogeneity in algorithms, such as to enable one or more of the hybrid neural network embodiments described throughout this disclosure. A chip can thereby take multiple inputs (e.g., one per core) from multiple data sources, undertake massively parallel processing using a large set of distinct algorithms, and provide a plurality of outputs (such as one per core or per set of cores). [00432] In embodiments, a chip may contain or enable a security fabric, such as a fabric for performing content inspection, packet inspection (such as against a black list, white list, or the like), and the like, in addition to undertaking processing tasks, such as for a neural network, hybrid AI solution, or the like. [00433] In embodiments, the platform described herein may include, integrate with, or connect with a system for robotic process automation (RPA), whereby an artificial intelligence/machine learning system may be trained on a training set of data that consists of tracking and recording sets of interactions of humans as the humans interact with a set of interfaces, such as graphical user interfaces (e.g., via interactions with mouse, trackpad, keyboard, touch screen, joystick, remote control devices); audio system interfaces (such as by microphones, smart speakers, voice response interfaces, intelligent agent interfaces (e.g., Siri and Alexa) and the like); human- machine interfaces (such as involving robotic systems, prosthetics, cybernetic systems, exoskeleton systems, wearables (including clothing, headgear, headphones, watches, wrist bands, glasses, arm bands, torso bands, belts, rings, necklaces and other accessories); physical or mechanical interfaces (e.g., buttons, dials, toggles, knobs, touch screens, levers, handles, steering systems, wheels, and many others); optical interfaces (including ones triggered by eye tracking, facial recognition, gesture recognition, emotion recognition, and the like); sensor-enabled interfaces (such as ones involving cameras, EEG or other electrical signal sensing (such as for brain-computer interfaces), magnetic sensing, accelerometers, galvanic skin response sensors, optical sensors, IR sensors, LIDAR and other sensor sets that are capable of recognizing thoughts, gestures (facial, hand, posture, or other), utterances, and the like, and others. In addition to tracking and recording human interactions, the RPA system may also track and record a set of states, actions, events and results that occur by, within, from or about the systems and processes with which the humans are engaging. For example, the RPA system may record mouse clicks on a frame of video that appears within a process by which a human review the video, such as where the human highlights points of interest within the video, tags objects in the video, captures parameters (such as sizes, dimensions, or the like), or otherwise operates on the video within a graphical user interface. The RPA system may also record system or process states and events, such as recording what elements were the subject of interaction, what the state of a system was before, during and after interaction, and what outputs were provided by the system or what results were achieved. Through a large training set of observation of human interactions and system states, events, and outcomes, the RPA system may learn to interact with the system in a fashion that mimics that of the human. Learning may be reinforced by training and supervision, such as by having a human correct the RPA system as it attempts in a set of trials to undertake the action that the human would have undertaken (e.g., tagging the right object, labeling an item correctly, selecting the correct button to trigger a next step in a process, or the like), such that over a set of trials the RPA system becomes increasingly effective at replicating the action the human would have taken. Learning may include deep learning, such as by reinforcing learning based on outcomes, such as successful outcomes (such as based on successful process completion, financial yield, and many other outcome measures described throughout this disclosure). In embodiments, an RPA system may be seeded during a learning phase with a set of expert human interactions, such that the RPA system begins to be able to replicate expert interaction with a system. For example, an expert driver's interactions with a robotic system, such as a remote-controlled vehicle or a UAV, may be recorded along with information about the vehicles state (e.g., the surrounding environment, navigation parameters, and purpose), such that the RPA system may learn to drive the vehicle in a way that reflects the same choices as an expert driver. After being taught to replicate the skills or expertise of an expert human, the RPA system may be transitioned to a deep learning mode, where the system further improves based on a set of outcomes, such as by being configured to attempt some level of variation in approach (e.g., trying different navigation paths to optimize time of arrival, or trying different approaches to deceleration and acceleration in curves) and tracking outcomes (with feedback), such that the RPA system can learn, by variation/experimentation (which may be randomized, rule-based, or the like, such as using genetic programming techniques, random-walk techniques, random forest techniques, and others) and selection, to exceed the expertise of the human expert. Thus, the RPA system learns from a human expert, acquires expertise in interacting with a system or process, facilitates automation of the process (such as by taking over some of the more repetitive tasks, including ones that require consistent execution of acquired skills), and provides a very effective seed for artificial intelligence, such as by providing a seed model or system that can be improved by machine learning with feedback on outcomes of a system or process. [00434] RPA systems may have particular value in situations where human expertise or knowledge is acquired with training and experience, as well as in situations where the human brain and sensory systems are particularly adapted and evolved to solve problems that are computationally difficult or highly complex. Thus, in embodiments, RPA systems may be used to learn to undertake, among other things: visual pattern recognition tasks with respect to the various systems, processes, workflows and environments described herein (such as recognizing the meaning of dynamic interactions of objects or entities within a video stream (e.g., to understand what is taking place as humans and objects interact in a video); recognition of the significance of visual patterns (e.g., recognizing objects, structures, defects and conditions in a photograph or radiography image); tagging of relevant objects within a visual pattern (e.g., tagging or labeling objects by type, category, or specific identity (such as person recognition); indication of metrics in a visual pattern (such as dimensions of objects indicated by clicking on dimensions in an x-ray or the like); labeling activities in a visual pattern by category (e.g., what work process is being done); recognizing a pattern that is displayed as a signal (e.g., a wave or similar pattern in a frequency domain, time domain, or other signal processing representation); anticipate a n future state based on a current state (e.g., anticipating motion of a flying or rolling object, anticipating a next action by a human in a process, anticipating a next step by a machine, anticipating a reaction by a person to an event, and many others); recognize and predicting emotional states and reactions (such as based on facial expression, posture, body language or the like); apply a heuristic to achieve a favorable state without deterministic calculation (e.g., selecting a favorable strategy in sport or game, selecting a business strategy, selecting a negotiating strategy, setting a price for a product, developing a message to promote a product or idea, generating creative content, recognizing a favorable style or fashion, and many others); any many others. In embodiments, an RPA system may automate workflows that involve visual inspection of people, systems, and objects (including internal components), workflows that involve performing software tasks, such as involving sequential interactions with a series of screens in a software interface, workflows that involve remote control of robots and other systems and devices, workflows that involve content creation (such as selecting, editing and sequencing content), workflows that involve financial decision-making and negotiation (such as setting prices and other terms and conditions of financial and other transactions), workflows that involve decision-making (such as selecting an optimal configuration for a system or sub-system, selecting an optimal path or sequence of actions in a workflow, process or other activity that involves dynamic decision-making), and many others. [00435] In embodiments, an RPA system may use a set of IoT devices and systems (such as cameras and sensors), to track and record human actions and interactions with respect to various interfaces and systems in an environment. The RPA system may also use data from onboard sensors, telemetry, and event recording systems, such as telemetry systems on vehicles and event logs on computers). The RPA system may thus generate and/or receive a large data set (optionally distributed) for an environment (such as any of the environments described throughout this disclosure) including data recording the various entities (human and non-human), systems, processes, applications (e.g., software applications used to enable workflows), states, events, and outcomes, which can be used to train the RPA system (or a set of RPA systems dedicated to automating various processes and workflows) to accomplish processes and workflows in a way that reflects and mimics accumulated human expertise, and that eventually improves on the results of that human expertise by further machine learning.

[00455] Referring to Fig.12, in embodiments, provided herein are transportation systems 1211 having a cognitive system for routing at least one vehicle 1210 within a set of vehicles 1294 based on a routing parameter determined by facilitating negotiation among a designated set of vehicles. In embodiments, negotiation accepts inputs relating to the value attributed by at least one rider to at least one parameter 1230 of a route 1295. A user 1290 may express value by a user interface that rates one or more parameters (e.g., any of the parameters noted throughout), by behavior (e.g., undertaking behavior that reflects or indicates value ascribed to arriving on time, following a given route 1295, or the like), or by providing or offering value (e.g., offering currency, tokens, points, cryptocurrency, rewards, or the like). For example, a user 1290 may negotiate for a preferred route by offering tokens to the system that are awarded if the user 1290 arrives at a designated time, while others may offer to accept tokens in exchange for taking alternative routes (and thereby reducing congestion). Thus, an artificial intelligence system may optimize a combination of offers to provide rewards or to undertake behavior in response to rewards, such that the reward system optimizes a set of outcomes. Negotiation may include explicit negotiation, such as where a driver offers to reward drivers ahead of the driver on the road in exchange for their leaving the route temporarily as the driver passes.

[00458] Referring to Fig.12 and Fig.13, in embodiments, a user 1290 is an administrator for a set of roadways to be used by the at least one vehicle 1210 in the set of vehicles 1294. In embodiments, a user 1290 is an administrator for a fleet of vehicles including the set of vehicles 1294.

[00459] In embodiments, the facilitating negotiation includes facilitating negotiation of a price of a service. In embodiments, the facilitating negotiation includes facilitating negotiation of a price of fuel. In embodiments, the facilitating negotiation includes facilitating negotiation of a price of recharging. In embodiments, the facilitating negotiation includes facilitating negotiation of a reward for taking a routing action. [00460] An aspect provided herein includes a transportation system 1211 for negotiation-based vehicle routing comprising: a route adjustment negotiation system 1289 through which users 1290 in a set of users 1291 negotiate a route-adjustment value 1224 for at least one of a plurality of parameters 1230 used by a vehicle routing system 1292 to route at least one vehicle 1210 in a set of vehicles 1294; and a user route optimizing circuit 1293 to optimize a portion of a route 1295 of at least one user 1290 of the set of vehicles 1294 based on the route-adjustment value 1224 for the at least one of the plurality of parameters 1230. In embodiments, the route- adjustment value 1224 is based at least in part on user-indicated values 1297 and at least one negotiation response thereto by at least one user of the set of vehicles 1294. In embodiments, the transportation system 1211 further comprises a vehicle-based route negotiation interface through which user-indicated values 1297 for the plurality of parameters 1230 used by the vehicle routing system are captured. In embodiments, a user 1290 is a rider of the at least one vehicle 1210. In embodiments, a user 1290 is an administrator for a set of roadways to be used by the at least one vehicle 1210 in the set of vehicles 1294. [00461] In embodiments, a user 1290 is an administrator for a fleet of vehicles including the set of vehicles 1294. In embodiments, the at least one of the plurality of parameters 1230 facilitates adjusting a route 1295 of the at least one vehicle 1210. In embodiments, adjusting the route 1295 includes prioritizing a determined parameter for use by the vehicle routing system.

In embodiments, the user-indicated values 1297 are derived from a behavior of the user 1290. In embodiments, the vehicle-based route negotiation interface facilitates converting user behavior to the user-indicated values 1297. In embodiments, the user behavior reflects value ascribed to the at least one parameter used by the vehicle routing system to influence a route 1295 of at least one vehicle 1210 in the set of vehicles 1294. In embodiments, the user-indicated value indicated by at least one user 1290 correlates to an item of value provided by the user 1290. In embodiments, the item of value is provided by the user 1290 through an offering of the item of value in exchange for a result of routing based on the at least one parameter. In embodiments, the negotiating of the route-adjustment value 1224 includes offering an item of value to the users of the set of vehicles 1294. [00462] Referring to Fig.14, in embodiments provided herein are transportation systems 1411 having a cognitive system for routing at least one vehicle 1410 within a set of vehicles 1494 based on a routing parameter determined by facilitating coordination among a designated set of vehicles 1498. In embodiments, the coordination is accomplished by taking at least one input from at least one game-based interface 1499 for riders of the vehicles. A game-based interface 1499 may include rewards for undertaking game-like actions (i.e., game activities 14101) that provide an ancillary benefit. For example, a rider in a vehicle 1410 may be rewarded for routing the vehicle 1410 to a point of interest off a highway (such as to collect a coin, to capture an item, or the like), while the rider’s departure clears space for other vehicles that are seeking to achieve other objectives, such as on-time arrival. For example, a game like Pokemon Go™ may be configured to indicate the presence of rare Pokemon™ creatures in locations that attract traffic away from congested locations. Others may provide rewards (e.g., currency, cryptocurrency or the like) that may be pooled to attract users 1490 away from congested roads. [00463] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 1411, comprising: a cognitive system for routing at least one vehicle 1410 within a set of vehicles 1494 based on a set of routing parameters 1430 determined by facilitating coordination among a designated set of vehicles 1498, wherein the coordination is accomplished by taking at least one input from at least one game-based interface 1499 for a user 1490 of a vehicle 1410 in the designated set of vehicles 1498. [00464] In embodiments, the system for transportation further comprises: a vehicle routing system 1492 to route the at least one vehicle 1410 based on the set of routing parameters 1430; and the game-based interface 1499 through which the user 1490 indicates a routing preference 14100 for at least one vehicle 1410 within the set of vehicles 1494 to undertake a game activity 14101 offered in the game-based interface 1499; wherein the game-based interface 1499 is to induce the user 1490 to undertake a set of favorable routing choices based on the set of routing parameters 1430. As used herein, “to route” means to select a route 1495. [00465] In embodiments, the vehicle routing system 1492 accounts for the routing preference 14100 of the user 1490 when routing the at least one vehicle 1410 within the set of vehicles 1494. In embodiments, the game-based interface 1499 is disposed for in-vehicle use as indicated in Fig.14 by the line extending from the Game-Based Interface into the box for Vehicle 1. In embodiments, the user 1490 is a rider of the at least one vehicle 1410.

[00569] Referring to Fig.31, in embodiments, provided herein are transportation systems having an artificial intelligence system for processing a voice of a rider in a vehicle to determine an emotional state and optimizing at least one operating parameter of the vehicle to improve the rider’s emotional state. A voice-analysis module may take voice input and, using a training set of labeled data where individuals indicate emotional states while speaking and/or whether others tag the data to indicate perceived emotional states while individuals are talking, a machine learning system (such as any of the types described herein) may be trained (such as using supervised learning, deep learning, or the like) to classify the emotional state of the individual based on the voice. Machine learning may improve classification by using feedback from a large set of trials, where feedback in each instance indicates whether the system has correctly assessed the emotional state of the individual in the case of an instance of speaking. Once trained to classify the emotional state, an expert system (optionally using a different machine learning system or other artificial intelligence system) may, based on feedback of outcomes of the emotional states of a set of individuals, be trained to optimize various vehicle parameters noted throughout this disclosure to maintain or induce more favorable states. For example, among many other indicators, where a voice of an individual indicates happiness, the expert system may select or recommend upbeat music to maintain that state. Where a voice indicates stress, the system may recommend or provide a control signal to change a planned route to one that is less stressful (e.g., has less stop-and-go traffic, or that has a higher probability of an on-time arrival). In embodiments, the system may be configured to engage in a dialog (such as on on-screen dialog or an audio dialog), such as using an intelligent agent module of the system, that is configured to use a series of questions to help obtain feedback from a user about the user’s emotional state, such as asking the rider about whether the rider is experiencing stress, what the source of the stress may be (e.g., traffic conditions, potential for late arrival, behavior of other drivers, or other sources unrelated to the nature of the ride), what might mitigate the stress (route options, communication options (such as offering to send a note that arrival may be delayed), entertainment options, ride configuration options, and the like), and the like. Driver responses may be fed as inputs to the expert system as indicators of emotional state, as well as to constrain efforts to optimize one or more vehicle parameters, such as by eliminating options for configuration that are not related to a driver’s source of stress from a set of available configurations.

[00573] An aspect provided herein includes an artificial intelligence system 3136 for voice processing to improve rider satisfaction, comprising: a first neural network 3122 trained to classify emotional states based on analysis of human voices detects an emotional state of a rider through recognition of aspects of the voice output 31128 of the rider captured while the rider is occupying the vehicle 3110 that correlate to at least one emotional state 3166 of the rider; and a second neural network 3120 that optimizes, for achieving a favorable emotional state of the rider, an operational parameter 31124 of the vehicle in response to the detected emotional state 31126 of the rider 3144.

[00575] Referring now to Fig.32, in embodiments provided herein are transportation systems 3211 having an artificial intelligence system 3236 for processing data from an interaction of a rider with an electronic commerce system of a vehicle to determine a rider state and optimizing at least one operating parameter of the vehicle to improve the rider’s state. Another common activity for users of device interfaces is e-commerce, such as shopping, bidding in auctions, selling items and the like. E-commerce systems use search functions, undertake advertising and engage users with various work flows that may eventually result in an order, a purchase, a bid, or the like. As described herein with search, a set of in-vehicle-relevant search results may be provided for e-commerce, as well as in-vehicle relevant advertising. In addition, in-vehicle- relevant interfaces and workflows may be configured based on detection of an in-vehicle rider, which may be quite different than workflows that are provided for e-commerce interfaces that are configured for smart phones or for desktop systems. Among other factors, an in-vehicle system may have access to information that is unavailable to conventional e-commerce systems, including route information (including direction, planned stops, planned duration and the like), rider mood and behavior information (such as from past routes, as well as detected from in- vehicle sensor sets), vehicle configuration and state information (such as make and model), and any of the other vehicle-related parameters described throughout this disclosure. As one example, a rider who is bored (as detected by an in-vehicle sensor set, such as using an expert system that is trained to detect boredom) and is on a long trip (as indicated by a route that is being undertaken by a car) may be far more patient, and likely to engage in deeper, richer content, and longer workflows, than a typical mobile user. As another example, an in-vehicle rider may be far more likely to engage in free trials, surveys, or other behaviors that promote brand engagement. Also, an in-vehicle user may be motivated to use otherwise down time to accomplish specific goals, such as shopping for needed items. Presenting the same interfaces, content, and workflows to in-vehicle users may miss excellent opportunities for deeper engagement that would be highly unlikely in other settings where many more things may compete for a user’s attention. In embodiments, an e-commerce system interface may be provided for in-vehicle users, where at least one of interface displays, content, search results, advertising, and one or more associated workflows (such as for shopping, bidding, searching, purchasing, providing feedback, viewing products, entering ratings or reviews, or the like) is configured based on the detection of the use of an in-vehicle interface. Displays and interactions may be further configured (optionally based on a set of rules or based on machine learning), such as based on detection of display types (e.g., allowing richer or larger images for large, HD displays), network capabilities (e.g., enabling faster loading and lower latency by caching low-resolution images that initially render), audio system capabilities (such as using audio for dialog management and intelligence assistant interactions) and the like for the vehicle. Display elements, content, and workflows may be configured by machine learning, such as by A/B testing and/or using genetic programming techniques, such as configuring alternative interaction types and tracking outcomes. Outcomes used to train automatic configuration of workflows for in-vehicle e-commerce interfaces may include extent of engagement, yield, purchases, rider satisfaction, ratings, and others. In-vehicle users may be profiled and clustered, such as by behavioral profiling, demographic profiling, psychographic profiling, location-based profiling, collaborative filtering, similarity-based clustering, or the like, as with conventional e-commerce, but profiles may be enhanced with route information, vehicle information, vehicle configuration information, vehicle state information, rider information and the like.

In embodiments, the machine learning on the input of the motorcycle determines an operational state of the motorcycle and a value for the at least one parameter is adapted responsive to the motorcycle operational state. [00645] In embodiments, the helmet further comprises a motorcycle configuration expert system 44139 for recommending an adjustment of a value of the at least one parameter 44156 to the augmented reality system 4488 responsive to the at least one input. [00646] In embodiments, leveraging network technologies for a transportation system may support a cognitive collective charging or refueling plan for vehicles in the transportation system. Such a transportation system may include an artificial intelligence system for taking inputs relating to a plurality of vehicles, such as self-driving vehicles, and determining at least one parameter of a re-charging or refueling plan for at least one of the plurality of vehicles based on the inputs. [00647] In embodiments, the transportation system may be a vehicle transportation system. Such a vehicle transportation system may include a network-enabled vehicle information ingestion port 4532 that may provide a network (e.g., Internet and the like) interface through which inputs, such as inputs comprising operational state and energy consumption information from at least one of a plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4510 may be gathered. In embodiments, such inputs may be gathered in real time as the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4510 connect to and deliver vehicle operational state, energy consumption and other related information. In embodiments, the inputs may relate to vehicle energy consumption and may be determined from a battery charge state of a portion of the plurality of vehicles. The inputs may include a route plan for the vehicle, an indicator of the value of charging of the vehicle, and the like. The inputs may include predicted traffic conditions for the plurality of vehicles. The transportation system may also include vehicle charging or refueling infrastructure that may include one or more vehicle charging infrastructure control system(s) 4534. These control system(s) 4534 may receive the operational state and energy consumption information for the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4510 via the ingestion port 4532 or directly through a common or set of connected networks, such as the Internet and the like. Such a transportation system may further include an artificial intelligence system 4536 that may be functionally connected with the vehicle charging infrastructure control system(s) 4534 that, for example, responsive to the receiving of the operational state and energy consumption information, may determine, provide, adjust or create at least one charging plan parameter 4514 upon which a charging plan 4512 for at least a portion of the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4510 is dependent. This dependency may yield changes in the application of the charging plan 4512 by the control system(s) 4534, such as when a processor of the control system(s) 4534 executes a program derived from or based on the charging plan 4512. The charging infrastructure control system(s) 4534 may include a cloud- based computing system remote from charging infrastructure systems (e.g., remote from an electric vehicle charging kiosk and the like); it may also include a local charging infrastructure system 4538 that may be disposed with and/or integrated with an infrastructure element, such as a fuel station, a charging kiosk and the like. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 4536 may interface and coordinate with the cloud-based system 4534, the local charging infrastructure system 4538 or both. In embodiments, coordination of the cloud-based system may take on a different form of interfacing, such as providing parameters that affect more than one charging kiosk and the like than may coordination with the local charging infrastructure system 4538, which may provide information that the local system could use to adapt charging system control commands and the like that may be provided from, for example, a cloud-based control system 4534. In an example, a cloud-based control system (that may control only a portion, such as a localized set, of available charging/refueling infrastructure devices) may respond to the charging plan parameter 4514 of the artificial intelligence system 4536 by setting a charging rate that facilitates highly parallel vehicle charging. However, the local charging infrastructure system 4538 may adapt this control plan, such as based on a control plan parameter provided to it by the artificial intelligence system 4536, to permit a different charging rate (e.g., a faster charging rate), such as for a brief period to accommodate an accumulation of vehicles queued up or estimated to use a local charging kiosk in the period. In this way, an adjustment to the at least one parameter 4514 that when made to the charge infrastructure operation plan 4512 ensures that the at least one of the plurality of vehicles 4510 has access to energy renewal in a target energy renewal geographic region 4516. [00648] In embodiments, a charging or refueling plan may have a plurality of parameters that may impact a wide range of transportation aspects ranging from vehicle-specific to vehicle group-specific to vehicle location-specific and infrastructure impacting aspects. Therefore, a parameter of the plan may impact or relate to any of vehicle routing to charging infrastructure, amount of charge permitted to be provided, duration of time or rate for charging, battery conditions or state, battery charging profile, time required to charge to a minimum value that may be based on consumption needs of the vehicle(s), market value of charging, indicators of market value, market price, infrastructure provider profit, bids or offers for providing fuel or electricity to one or more charging or refueling infrastructure kiosks, available supply capacity, recharge demand (local, regional, system wide), and the like. [00649] In embodiments, to facilitate a cognitive charging or refueling plan, the transportation system may include a recharging plan update facility that interacts with the artificial intelligence system 4536 to apply an adjustment value 4524 to the at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters 4514. An adjustment value 4524 may be further adjusted based on feedback of applying the adjustment value. In embodiments, the feedback may be used by the artificial intelligence system 4534 to further adjust the adjustment value. In an example, feedback may impact the adjustment value applied to charging or refueling infrastructure facilities in a localized way, such as for a target recharging geographic region 4516 or geographic range relative to one or more vehicles. In embodiments, providing a parameter adjustment value may facilitate optimizing consumption of a remaining battery charge state of at least one of the plurality of vehicles. [00650] By processing energy-related consumption, demand, availability, and access information and the like, the artificial intelligence system 4536 may optimize aspects of the transportation system, such as vehicle electricity usage as shown in the box at 4526. The artificial intelligence system 4536 may further optimize at least one of recharging time, location, and amount. In an example, a recharging plan parameter that may be configured and updated based on feedback may be a routing parameter for the at least one of the plurality of vehicles as shown in the box at 4526. [00651] The artificial intelligence system 4536 may further optimize a transportation system charging or refueling control plan parameter 4514 to, for example, accommodate near-term charging needs for the plurality of rechargeable vehicles 4510 based on the optimized at least one parameter. The artificial intelligence system 4536 may execute an optimizing algorithm that may calculate energy parameters (including vehicle and non-vehicle energy), optimizes electricity usage for at least vehicles and/or charging or refueling infrastructure, and optimizes at least one charging or refueling infrastructure-specific recharging time, location, and amount. [00652] In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 4534 may predict a geolocation 4518 of one or more vehicles within a geographic region 4516. The geographic region 4516 may include vehicles that are currently located in or predicted to be in the region and optionally may require or prefer recharging or refueling. As an example of predicting geolocation and its impact on a charging plan, a charging plan parameter may include allocation of vehicles currently in or predicted to be in the region to charging or refueling infrastructure in the geographic region 4516. In embodiments, geolocation prediction may include receiving inputs relating to charging states of a plurality of vehicles within or predicted to be within a geolocation range so that the artificial intelligence system can optimize at least one charging plan parameter 4514 based on a prediction of geolocations of the plurality of vehicles. [00653] There are many aspects of a charging plan that may be impacted. Some aspects may be financial related, such as automated negotiation of at least one of a duration, a quantity and a price for charging or refueling a vehicle. [00654] The transportation system cognitive charging plan system may include the artificial intelligence system being configured with a hybrid neural network. A first neural network 4522 of the hybrid neural network may be used to process inputs relating to charge or fuel states of the plurality of vehicles (directly received from the vehicles or through the vehicle information port 4532) and a second neural network 4520 of the hybrid neural network is used to process inputs relating to charging or refueling infrastructure and the like. In embodiments, the first neural network 4522 may process inputs comprising vehicle route and stored energy state information for a plurality of vehicles to predict for at least one of the plurality of vehicles a target energy renewal region. The second neural network 4520 may process vehicle energy renewal infrastructure usage and demand information for vehicle energy renewal infrastructure facilities within the target energy renewal region to determine at least one parameter 4514 of a charge infrastructure operational plan 4512 that facilitates access by the at least one of the plurality vehicles to renewal energy in the target energy renewal region 4516. In embodiments, the first and/or second neural networks may be configured as any of the neural networks described herein including without limitation convolutional type networks. [00655] In embodiments, a transportation system may be distributed and may include an artificial intelligence system 4536 for taking inputs relating to a plurality of vehicles 4510 and determining at least one parameter 4514 of a re-charging and refueling plan 4512 for at least one of the plurality of vehicles based on the inputs. In embodiments, such inputs may be gathered in real time as plurality of vehicles 4510 connect to and deliver vehicle operational state, energy consumption and other related information. In embodiments, the inputs may relate to vehicle energy consumption and may be determined from a battery charge state of a portion of the plurality of vehicles. The inputs may include a route plan for the vehicle, an indicator of the value of charging of the vehicle, and the like. The inputs may include predicted traffic conditions for the plurality of vehicles. The distributed transportation system may also include cloud-based and vehicle-based systems that exchange information about the vehicle, such as energy consumption and operational information and information about the transportation system, such as recharging or refueling infrastructure. The artificial intelligence system may respond to transportation system and vehicle information shared by the cloud and vehicle-based system with control parameters that facilitate executing a cognitive charging plan for at least a portion of charging or refueling infrastructure of the transportation system. The artificial intelligence system 4536 may determine, provide, adjust or create at least one charging plan parameter 4514 upon which a charging plan 4512 for at least a portion of the plurality of vehicles 4510 is dependent. This dependency may yield changes in the execution of the charging plan 4512 by at least one the cloud-based and vehicle-based systems, such as when a processor executes a program derived from or based on the charging plan 4512. [00656] In embodiments, an artificial intelligence system of a transportation system may facilitate execution of a cognitive charging plan by applying a vehicle recharging facility utilization optimization algorithm to a plurality of rechargeable vehicle-specific inputs, e.g., current operating state data for rechargeable vehicles present in a target recharging range of one of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles. The artificial intelligence system may also evaluate an impact of a plurality of recharging plan parameters on recharging infrastructure of the transportation system in the target recharging range. The artificial intelligence system may select at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters that facilitates, for example optimizing energy usage by the plurality of rechargeable vehicles and generate an adjustment value for the at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters. The artificial intelligence system may further predict a near-term need for recharging for a portion of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles within the target region based on, for example, operational status of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles that may be determined from the rechargeable vehicle-specific inputs. Based on this prediction and near-term recharging infrastructure availability and capacity information, the artificial intelligence system may optimize at least one parameter of the recharging plan. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system may operate a hybrid neural network for the predicting and parameter selection or adjustment. In an example, a first portion of the hybrid neural network may process inputs that relate to route plans for one more rechargeable vehicles. In the example, a second portion of the hybrid neural network that is distinct from the first portion may process inputs relating to recharging infrastructure within a recharging range of at least one of the rechargeable vehicles. In this example, the second distinct portion of the hybrid neural net predicts the geolocation of a plurality of vehicles within the target region. To facilitate execution of the recharging plan, the parameter may impact an allocation of vehicles to at least a portion of recharging infrastructure within the predicted geographic region. [00657] In embodiments, vehicles described herein may comprise a system for automating at least one control parameter of the vehicle. The vehicles may further at least operate as a semi- autonomous vehicle. The vehicles may be automatically routed. Also, the vehicles, recharging and otherwise may be self-driving vehicles. [00658] In embodiments, leveraging network technologies for a transportation system may support a cognitive collective charging or refueling plan for vehicles in the transportation system. Such a transportation system may include an artificial intelligence system for taking inputs relating to battery status of a plurality of vehicles, such as self-driving vehicles and determining at least one parameter of a re-charging and/or refueling plan for optimizing battery operation of at least one of the plurality of vehicles based on the inputs. [00659] In embodiments, such a vehicle transportation system may include a network-enabled vehicle information ingestion port 4632 that may provide a network (e.g., Internet and the like) interface through which inputs, such as inputs comprising operational state and energy consumption information and battery state from at least one of a plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4610 may be gathered. In embodiments, such inputs may be gathered in real time as a plurality of vehicles 4610 connect to a network and deliver vehicle operational state, energy consumption, battery state and other related information. In embodiments, the inputs may relate to vehicle energy consumption and may include a battery charge state of a portion of the plurality of vehicles. The inputs may include a route plan for the vehicle, an indicator of the value of charging of the vehicle, and the like. The inputs may include predicted traffic conditions for the plurality of vehicles. The transportation system may also include vehicle charging or refueling infrastructure that may include one or more vehicle charging infrastructure control systems 4634. These control systems may receive the battery status information and the like for the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4610 via the ingestion port 4632 and/or directly through a common or set of connected networks, such as an Internet infrastructure including wireless networks and the like. Such a transportation system may further include an artificial intelligence system 4636 that may be functionally connected with the vehicle charging infrastructure control systems that may, based on at least the battery status information from the portion of the plurality of vehicles determine, provide, adjust or create at least one charging plan parameter 4614 upon which a charging plan 4612 for at least a portion of the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4610 is dependent. This parameter dependency may yield changes in the application of the charging plan 4612 by the control system(s) 4634, such as when a processor of the control system(s) 4634 executes a program derived from or based on the charging plan 4612. These changes may be applied to optimize anticipated battery usage of one or more of the vehicles. The optimizing may be vehicle-specific, aggregated across a set of vehicles, and the like. The charging infrastructure control system(s) 4634 may include a cloud-based computing system remote from charging infrastructure systems (e.g., remote from an electric vehicle charging kiosk and the like); it may also include a local charging infrastructure system 4638 that may be disposed with and/or integrated into an infrastructure element, such as a fuel station, a charging kiosk and the like. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 4636 may interface with the cloud-based system 4634, the local charging infrastructure system 4638 or both. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system may interface with individual vehicles to facilitate optimizing anticipated battery usage. In embodiments, interfacing with the cloud-based system may affect infrastructure-wide impact of a charging plan, such as providing parameters that affect more than one charging kiosk. Interfacing with the local charging infrastructure system 4638 may include providing information that the local system could use to adapt charging system control commands and the like that may be provided from, for example, a regional or broader control system, such as a cloud-based control system 4634. In an example, a cloud-based control system (that may control only a target or geographic region, such as a localized set, a town, a county, a city, a ward, county and the like of available charging or refueling infrastructure devices) may respond to the charging plan parameter 4614 of the artificial intelligence system 4636 by setting a charging rate that facilitates highly parallel vehicle charging so that vehicle battery usage can be optimized. However, the local charging infrastructure system 4638 may adapt this control plan, such as based on a control plan parameter provided to it by the artificial intelligence system 4636, to permit a different charging rate (e.g., a faster charging rate), such as for a brief period to accommodate an accumulation of vehicles for which anticipated battery usage is not yet optimized. In this way, an adjustment to the at least one parameter 4614 that when made to the charge infrastructure operation plan 4612 ensures that the at least one of the plurality of vehicles 4610 has access to energy renewal in a target energy renewal region 4616. In embodiments, a target energy renewal region may be defined by a geofence that may be configured by an administrator of the region. In an example an administrator may have control or responsibility for a jurisdiction (e.g., a township, and the like). In the example, the administrator may configure a geofence for a region that is substantially congruent with the jurisdiction. [00660] In embodiments, a charging or refueling plan may have a plurality of parameters that may impact a wide range of transportation aspects ranging from vehicle-specific to vehicle group-specific to vehicle location-specific and infrastructure impacting aspects. Therefore, a parameter of the plan may impact or relate to any of vehicle routing to charging infrastructure, amount of charge permitted to be provided, duration of time or rate for charging, battery conditions or state, battery charging profile, time required to charge to a minimum value that may be based on consumption needs of the vehicle(s), market value of charging, indicators of market value, market price, infrastructure provider profit, bids or offers for providing fuel or electricity to one or more charging or refueling infrastructure kiosks, available supply capacity, recharge demand (local, regional, system wide), maximum energy usage rate, time between battery charging, and the like. [00661] In embodiments, to facilitate a cognitive charging or refueling plan, the transportation system may include a recharging plan update facility that interacts with the artificial intelligence system 4636 to apply an adjustment value 4624 to the at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters 4614. An adjustment value 4624 may be further adjusted based on feedback of applying the adjustment value. In embodiments, the feedback may be used by the artificial intelligence system 4634 to further adjust the adjustment value. In an example, feedback may impact the adjustment value applied to charging or refueling infrastructure facilities in a localized way, such as impacting only a set of vehicles that are impacted by or projected to be impacted by a traffic jam so that their battery operation is optimized, so as to, for example, ensure that they have sufficient battery power throughout the duration of the traffic jam. In embodiments, providing a parameter adjustment value may facilitate optimizing consumption of a remaining battery charge state of at least one of the plurality of vehicles. [00662] By processing energy-related consumption, demand, availability, and access information and the like, the artificial intelligence system 4636 may optimize aspects of the transportation system, such as vehicle electricity usage as shown in the box at 4626. The artificial intelligence system 4636 may further optimize at least one of recharging time, location, and amount as shown in the box at 4626. In an example, a recharging plan parameter that may be configured and updated based on feedback may be a routing parameter for the at least one of the plurality of vehicles. [00663] The artificial intelligence system 4636 may further optimize a transportation system charging or refueling control plan parameter 4614 to, for example accommodate near-term charging needs for the plurality of rechargeable vehicles 4610 based on the optimized at least one parameter. The artificial intelligence system 4636 may execute a vehicle recharging optimizing algorithm that may calculate energy parameters (including vehicle and non-vehicle energy) that may impact an anticipated battery usage, optimizes electricity usage for at least vehicles and/or charging or refueling infrastructure, and optimizes at least one charging or refueling infrastructure-specific recharging time, location, and amount. [00664] In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 4634 may predict a geolocation 4618 of one or more vehicles within a geographic region 4616. The geographic region 4616 may include vehicles that are currently located in or predicted to be in the region and optionally may require or prefer recharging or refueling. As an example of predicting geolocation and its impact on a charging plan, a charging plan parameter may include allocation of vehicles currently in or predicted to be in the region to charging or refueling infrastructure in the geographic region 4616. In embodiments, geolocation prediction may include receiving inputs relating to battery and battery charging states and recharging needs of a plurality of vehicles within or predicted to be within a geolocation range so that the artificial intelligence system can optimize at least one charging plan parameter 4614 based on a prediction of geolocations of the plurality of vehicles. [00665] There are many aspects of a charging plan that may be impacted. Some aspects may be financial related, such as automated negotiation of at least one of a duration, a quantity and a price for charging or refueling a vehicle. [00666] The transportation system cognitive charging plan system may include the artificial intelligence system being configured with a hybrid neural network. A first neural network 4622 of the hybrid neural network may be used to process inputs relating to battery charge or fuel states of the plurality of vehicles (directly received from the vehicles or through the vehicle information port 4632) and a second neural network 4620 of the hybrid neural network is used to process inputs relating to charging or refueling infrastructure and the like. In embodiments, the first neural network 4622 may process inputs comprising information about a charging system of the vehicle and vehicle route and stored energy state information for a plurality of vehicles to predict for at least one of the plurality of vehicles a target energy renewal region. The second neural network 4620 may further predict a geolocation of a portion of the plurality of vehicles relative to another vehicle or set of vehicles. The second neural network 4620 may process vehicle energy renewal infrastructure usage and demand information for vehicle energy renewal infrastructure facilities within the target energy renewal region to determine at least one parameter 4614 of a charge infrastructure operational plan 4612 that facilitates access by the at least one of the plurality vehicles to renewal energy in the target energy renewal region 4616. In embodiments, the first and/or second neural networks may be configured as any of the neural networks described herein including without limitation convolutional type networks. [00667] In embodiments, a transportation system may be distributed and may include an artificial intelligence system 4636 for taking inputs relating to a plurality of vehicles 4610 and determining at least one parameter 4614 of a re-charging and refueling plan 4612 for at least one of the plurality of vehicles based on the inputs. In embodiments, such inputs may be gathered in real time as plurality of vehicles 4610 connect to a network and deliver vehicle operational state, energy consumption and other related information. In embodiments, the inputs may relate to vehicle energy consumption and may be determined from a battery charge state of a portion of the plurality of vehicles. The inputs may include a route plan for the vehicle, an indicator of the value of charging of the vehicle, and the like. The inputs may include predicted traffic conditions for the plurality of vehicles. The distributed transportation system may also include cloud-based and vehicle-based systems that exchange information about the vehicle, such as energy consumption and operational information and information about the transportation system, such as recharging or refueling infrastructure. The artificial intelligence system may respond to transportation system and vehicle information shared by the cloud and vehicle-based system with control parameters that facilitate executing a cognitive charging plan for at least a portion of charging or refueling infrastructure of the transportation system. The artificial intelligence system 4636 may determine, provide, adjust or create at least one charging plan parameter 4614 upon which a charging plan 4612 for at least a portion of the plurality of vehicles 4610 is dependent. This dependency may yield changes in the execution of the charging plan 4612 by at least one of the cloud-based and vehicle-based systems, such as when a processor executes a program derived from or based on the charging plan 4612. [00668] In embodiments, an artificial intelligence system of a transportation system may facilitate execution of a cognitive charging plan by applying a vehicle recharging facility utilization of a vehicle battery operation optimization algorithm to a plurality of rechargeable vehicle-specific inputs, e.g., current operating state data for rechargeable vehicles present in a target recharging range of one of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles. The artificial intelligence system may also evaluate an impact of a plurality of recharging plan parameters on recharging infrastructure of the transportation system in the target recharging range. The artificial intelligence system may select at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters that facilitates, for example optimizing energy usage by the plurality of rechargeable vehicles and generate an adjustment value for the at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters. The artificial intelligence system may further predict a near-term need for recharging for a portion of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles within the target region based on, for example, operational status of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles that may be determined from the rechargeable vehicle-specific inputs. Based on this prediction and near-term recharging infrastructure availability and capacity information, the artificial intelligence system may optimize at least one parameter of the recharging plan. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system may operate a hybrid neural network for the predicting and parameter selection or adjustment. In an example, a first portion of the hybrid neural network may process inputs that relate to route plans for one more rechargeable vehicles. In the example, a second portion of the hybrid neural network that is distinct from the first portion may process inputs relating to recharging infrastructure within a recharging range of at least one of the rechargeable vehicles. In this example, the second distinct portion of the hybrid neural net predicts the geolocation of a plurality of vehicles within the target region. To facilitate execution of the recharging plan, the parameter may impact an allocation of vehicles to at least a portion of recharging infrastructure within the predicted geographic region. [00669] In embodiments, vehicles described herein may comprise a system for automating at least one control parameter of the vehicle. The vehicles may further at least operate as a semi- autonomous vehicle. The vehicles may be automatically routed. Also, the vehicles, recharging and otherwise may be self-driving vehicles. [00670] In embodiments, leveraging network technologies for a transportation system may support a cognitive collective charging or refueling plan for vehicles in the transportation system. Such a transportation system may include a cloud-based artificial intelligence system for taking inputs relating to a plurality of vehicles, such as self-driving vehicles and determining at least one parameter of a re-charging and/or refueling plan for at least one of the plurality of vehicles based on the inputs. [00671] In embodiments, such a vehicle transportation system may include a cloud-enabled vehicle information ingestion port 4732 that may provide a network (e.g., Internet and the like) interface through which inputs, such as inputs comprising operational state and energy consumption information from at least one of a plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4710 may be gathered and provided into cloud resources, such as the cloud-based control and artificial intelligence systems described herein. In embodiments, such inputs may be gathered in real time as a plurality of vehicles 4710 connect to the cloud and deliver vehicle operational state, energy consumption and other related information through at least the port 4732. In embodiments, the inputs may relate to vehicle energy consumption and may be determined from a battery charge state of a portion of the plurality of vehicles. The inputs may include a route plan for the vehicle, an indicator of the value of charging of the vehicle, and the like. The inputs may include predicted traffic conditions for the plurality of vehicles. The transportation system may also include vehicle charging or refueling infrastructure that may include one or more vehicle charging infrastructure cloud-based control system(s) 4734. These cloud-based control system(s) 4734 may receive the operational state and energy consumption information for the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4710 via the cloud-enabled ingestion port 4732 and/or directly through a common or set of connected networks, such as the Internet and the like. Such a transportation system may further include a cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 that may be functionally connected with the vehicle charging infrastructure cloud-based control system(s) 4734 that, for example, may determine, provide, adjust or create at least one charging plan parameter 4714 upon which a charging plan 4712 for at least a portion of the plurality of network-enabled vehicles 4710 is dependent. This dependency may yield changes in the application of the charging plan 4712 by the cloud-based control system(s) 4734, such as when a processor of the cloud-based control system(s) 4734 executes a program derived from or based on the charging plan 4712. The charging infrastructure cloud-based control system(s) 4734 may include a cloud-based computing system remote from charging infrastructure systems (e.g., remote from an electric vehicle charging kiosk and the like); it may also include a local charging infrastructure system 4738 that may be disposed with and/or integrated into an infrastructure element, such as a fuel station, a charging kiosk and the like. In embodiments, the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 may interface and coordinate with the cloud-based charging infrastructure control system 4734, the local charging infrastructure system 4738 or both. In embodiments, coordination of the cloud-based system may take on a form of interfacing, such as providing parameters that affect more than one charging kiosk and the like than may be different from coordination with the local charging infrastructure system 4738, which may provide information that the local system could use to adapt cloud-based charging system control commands and the like that may be provided from, for example, a cloud-based control system 4734. In an example, a cloud-based control system (that may control only a portion, such as a localized set, of available charging or refueling infrastructure devices) may respond to the charging plan parameter 4714 of the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 by setting a charging rate that facilitates highly parallel vehicle charging. However, the local charging infrastructure system 4738 may adapt this control plan, such as based on a control plan parameter provided to it by the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736, to permit a different charging rate (e.g., a faster charging rate), such as for a brief period to accommodate an accumulation of vehicles queued up or estimated to use a local charging kiosk in the period. In this way, an adjustment to the at least one parameter 4714 that when made to the charge infrastructure operation plan 4712 ensures that the at least one of the plurality of vehicles 4710 has access to energy renewal in a target energy renewal region 4716. [00672] In embodiments, a charging or refueling plan may have a plurality of parameters that may impact a wide range of transportation aspects ranging from vehicle-specific to vehicle group-specific to vehicle location-specific and infrastructure impacting aspects. Therefore, a parameter of the plan may impact or relate to any of vehicle routing to charging infrastructure, amount of charge permitted to be provided, duration of time or rate for charging, battery conditions or state, battery charging profile, time required to charge to a minimum value that may be based on consumption needs of the vehicle(s), market value of charging, indicators of market value, market price, infrastructure provider profit, bids or offers for providing fuel or electricity to one or more charging or refueling infrastructure kiosks, available supply capacity, recharge demand (local, regional, system wide), and the like. [00673] In embodiments, to facilitate a cognitive charging or refueling plan, the transportation system may include a recharging plan update facility that interacts with the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 to apply an adjustment value 4724 to the at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters 4714. An adjustment value 4724 may be further adjusted based on feedback of applying the adjustment value. In embodiments, the feedback may be used by the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4734 to further adjust the adjustment value. In an example, feedback may impact the adjustment value applied to charging or refueling infrastructure facilities in a localized way, such as for a target recharging area 4716 or geographic range relative to one or more vehicles. In embodiments, providing a parameter adjustment value may facilitate optimizing consumption of a remaining battery charge state of at least one of the plurality of vehicles. [00674] By processing energy-related consumption, demand, availability, and access information and the like, the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 may optimize aspects of the transportation system, such as vehicle electricity usage. The cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 may further optimize at least one of recharging time, location, and amount. In an example, a recharging plan parameter that may be configured and updated based on feedback may be a routing parameter for the at least one of the plurality of vehicles. [00675] The cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 may further optimize a transportation system charging or refueling control plan parameter 4714 to, for example, accommodate near- term charging needs for the plurality of rechargeable vehicles 4710 based on the optimized at least one parameter. The cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 may execute an optimizing algorithm that may calculate energy parameters (including vehicle and non-vehicle energy), optimizes electricity usage for at least vehicles and/or charging or refueling infrastructure, and optimizes at least one charging or refueling infrastructure-specific recharging time, location, and amount. [00676] In embodiments, the cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4734 may predict a geolocation 4718 of one or more vehicles within a geographic region 4716. The geographic region 4716 may include vehicles that are currently located in or predicted to be in the region and optionally may require or prefer recharging or refueling. As an example of predicting geolocation and its impact on a charging plan, a charging plan parameter may include allocation of vehicles currently in or predicted to be in the region to charging or refueling infrastructure in the geographic region 4716. In embodiments, geolocation prediction may include receiving inputs relating to charging states of a plurality of vehicles within or predicted to be within a geolocation range so that the cloud-based artificial intelligence system can optimize at least one charging plan parameter 4714 based on a prediction of geolocations of the plurality of vehicles. [00677] There are many aspects of a charging plan that may be impacted. Some aspects may be financially related, such as automated negotiation of at least one of a duration, a quantity and a price for charging or refueling a vehicle. [00678] The transportation system cognitive charging plan system may include the cloud-based artificial intelligence system being configured with a hybrid neural network. A first neural network 4722 of the hybrid neural network may be used to process inputs relating to charge or fuel states of the plurality of vehicles (directly received from the vehicles or through the vehicle information port 4732) and a second neural network 4720 of the hybrid neural network is used to process inputs relating to charging or refueling infrastructure and the like. In embodiments, the first neural network 4722 may process inputs comprising vehicle route and stored energy state information for a plurality of vehicles to predict for at least one of the plurality of vehicles a target energy renewal region. The second neural network 4720 may process vehicle energy renewal infrastructure usage and demand information for vehicle energy renewal infrastructure facilities within the target energy renewal region to determine at least one parameter 4714 of a charge infrastructure operational plan 4712 that facilitates access by the at least one of the plurality vehicles to renewal energy in the target energy renewal region 4716. In embodiments, the first and/or second neural networks may be configured as any of the neural networks described herein including without limitation convolutional type networks. [00679] In embodiments, a transportation system may be distributed and may include a cloud- based artificial intelligence system 4736 for taking inputs relating to a plurality of vehicles 4710 and determining at least one parameter 4714 of a re-charging and refueling plan 4712 for at least one of the plurality of vehicles based on the inputs. In embodiments, such inputs may be gathered in real time as plurality of vehicles 4710 connect to and deliver vehicle operational state, energy consumption and other related information. In embodiments, the inputs may relate to vehicle energy consumption and may be determined from a battery charge state of a portion of the plurality of vehicles. The inputs may include a route plan for the vehicle, an indicator of the value of charging of the vehicle, and the like. The inputs may include predicted traffic conditions for the plurality of vehicles. The distributed transportation system may also include cloud-based and vehicle-based systems that exchange information about the vehicle, such as energy consumption and operational information and information about the transportation system, such as recharging or refueling infrastructure. The cloud-based artificial intelligence system may respond to transportation system and vehicle information shared by the cloud and vehicle-based system with control parameters that facilitate executing a cognitive charging plan for at least a portion of charging or refueling infrastructure of the transportation system. The cloud-based artificial intelligence system 4736 may determine, provide, adjust or create at least one charging plan parameter 4714 upon which a charging plan 4712 for at least a portion of the plurality of vehicles 4710 is dependent. This dependency may yield changes in the execution of the charging plan 4712 by at least one the cloud-based and vehicle-based systems, such as when a processor executes a program derived from or based on the charging plan 4712. [00680] In embodiments, a cloud-based artificial intelligence system of a transportation system may facilitate execution of a cognitive charging plan by applying a vehicle recharging facility utilization optimization algorithm to a plurality of rechargeable vehicle-specific inputs, e.g., current operating state data for rechargeable vehicles present in a target recharging range of one of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles. The cloud-based artificial intelligence system may also evaluate an impact of a plurality of recharging plan parameters on recharging infrastructure of the transportation system in the target recharging range. The cloud-based artificial intelligence system may select at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters that facilitates, for example optimizing energy usage by the plurality of rechargeable vehicles and generate an adjustment value for the at least one of the plurality of recharging plan parameters. The cloud- based artificial intelligence system may further predict a near-term need for recharging for a portion of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles within the target region based on, for example, operational status of the plurality of rechargeable vehicles that may be determined from the rechargeable vehicle-specific inputs. Based on this prediction and near-term recharging infrastructure availability and capacity information, the cloud-based artificial intelligence system may optimize at least one parameter of the recharging plan. In embodiments, the cloud-based artificial intelligence system may operate a hybrid neural network for the predicting and parameter selection or adjustment. In an example, a first portion of the hybrid neural network may process inputs that relates to route plans for one more rechargeable vehicles. In the example, a second portion of the hybrid neural network that is distinct from the first portion may process inputs relating to recharging infrastructure within a recharging range of at least one of the rechargeable vehicles. In this example, the second distinct portion of the hybrid neural net predicts the geolocation of a plurality of vehicles within the target region. To facilitate execution of the recharging plan, the parameter may impact an allocation of vehicles to at least a portion of recharging infrastructure within the predicted geographic region. [00681] In embodiments, vehicles described herein may comprise a system for automating at least one control parameter of the vehicle. The vehicles may further at least operate as a semi- autonomous vehicle. The vehicles may be automatically routed. Also, the vehicles, recharging and otherwise may be self-driving vehicles. [00682] Referring to Fig.48, provided herein are transportation systems 4811 having a robotic process automation system 48181 (RPA system). In embodiments, data is captured for each of a set of individuals/users 4891 as the individuals/users 4890 interact with a user interface 4823 of a vehicle 4811, and an artificial intelligence system 4836 is trained using the data and interacts with the vehicle 4810 to automatically undertake actions with the vehicle 4810 on behalf of the user 4890. Data 48114 collected for the RPA system 48181 may include a sequence of images, sensor data, telemetry data, or the like, among many other types of data described throughout this disclosure. Interactions of an individual/user 4890 with a vehicle 4810 may include interactions with various vehicle interfaces as described throughout this disclosure. For example, a robotic process automation (RPA) system 4810 may observe patterns of a driver, such as braking patterns, typical following distance behind other vehicles, approach to curves (e.g., entry angle, entry speed, exit angle, exit speed and the like), acceleration patterns, lane preferences, passing preferences, and the like. Such patterns may be obtained through vision systems 48186 (e.g., ones observing the driver, the steering wheel, the brake, the surrounding environment 48171, and the like), through vehicle data systems 48185 (e.g., data streams indicating states and changes in state in steering, braking and the like, as well as forward and rear-facing cameras and sensors), through connected systems 48187 (e.g., GPS, cellular systems, and other network systems, as well as peer-to-peer, vehicle-to-vehicle, mesh and cognitive networks, among others), and other sources. Using a training data set, the RPA system 48181, such as via a neural network 48108 of any of the types described herein, may learn to drive in the same style as a driver. In embodiments, the RPA system 48181 may learn changes in style, such as varying levels of aggressiveness in different situations, such as based on time of day, length of trip, type of trip, or the like. Thus, a self-driving car may learn to drive like its typical driver. Similarly, an RPA system 48181 may be used to observe driver, passenger, or other individual interactions with a navigation system, an audio entertainment system, a video entertainment system, a climate control system, a seat warming and/or cooling system, a steering system, a braking system, a mirror system, a window system, a door system, a trunk system, a fueling system, a moonroof system, a ventilation system, a lumbar support system, a seat positioning system, a GPS system, a WIFI system, a glovebox system, or other systems.

In embodiments, a set of data is captured for each user 4890 in a set of users 4891 as each user 4890 interacts with a user interface 4823 of a vehicle 4810. In embodiments, an artificial intelligence system 4836 is trained using the set of data 48114 to interact with the vehicle 4810 to automatically undertake actions with the vehicle 4810 on behalf of the user 4890.

In embodiments, the at least one vehicle system element is affected by the human interactions.

In embodiments, the vehicle is to be controlled to achieve results that are consistent with results achieved via the human interactions. In embodiments, the method further comprises tracking and recording conditions proximal to the vehicle with a plurality of vehicle mounted sensors. In embodiments, the training of the artificial intelligence system is further responsive to the conditions proximal to the vehicle tracked contemporaneously to the human interactions. In embodiments, the training is further responsive to a plurality of data feeds from remote sensors, the plurality of data feeds comprising data collected by the remote sensors contemporaneous to the human interactions. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system employs a workflow that involves decision- making and the robotic process automation system facilitates automation of the decision-making. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system employs a workflow that involves remote control of the vehicle and the robotic process automation system facilitates automation of remotely controlling the vehicle. [00688] An aspect provided herein includes a transportation system 4811 for mimicking human operation of a vehicle 4810, comprising: a robotic process automation system 48181 comprising: an operator data collection module 48182 to capture human operator interaction with a vehicle control system interface 48191; a vehicle data collection module 48183 to capture vehicle response and operating conditions associated at least contemporaneously with the human operator interaction; and an environment data collection module 48184 to capture instances of environmental information associated at least contemporaneously with the human operator interaction; and an artificial intelligence system 4836 to learn to mimic the human operator (e.g., user 4890) to control the vehicle 4810 responsive to the robotic process automation system 48181 detecting data 48114 indicative of at least one of a plurality of the instances of environmental information associated with the contemporaneously captured vehicle response and operating conditions. [00689] In embodiments, the operator data collection module 48182 is to capture patterns of data including braking patterns, follow-behind distance, approach to curve acceleration patterns, lane preferences, and passing preferences. In embodiments, vehicle data collection module 48183 captures data from a plurality of vehicle data systems 48185 that provide data streams indicating states and changes in state in steering, braking, acceleration, forward looking images, and rear- looking images. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 4836 includes a neural network 48108 for training the artificial intelligence system 4836. [00690] Fig.50 illustrates a robotic process automation method 5000 of mimicking human operation of a vehicle in accordance with embodiments of the systems and methods disclosed herein. At 5002 the method includes capturing human operator interactions with a vehicle control system interface. At 5004 the method includes capturing vehicle response and operating conditions associated at least contemporaneously with the human operator interaction. At 5006 the method includes capturing instances of environmental information associated at least contemporaneously with the human operator interaction. At 5008 the method includes training an artificial intelligence system to control the vehicle mimicking the human operator responsive to the environment data collection module detecting data indicative of at least one of a plurality of the instances of environmental information associated with the contemporaneously captured vehicle response and operating conditions. [00691] In embodiments, the method further comprises applying deep learning in the artificial intelligence system to optimize a margin of vehicle operating safety by affecting the controlling of the at least one aspect of the vehicle by structured variation in the controlling of the at least one aspect of the vehicle to mimic the human interactions and processing feedback from the controlling the at least one aspect of the vehicle with machine learning. In embodiments, the robotic process automation system facilitates automation of a decision-making workflow employed by the artificial intelligence system. In embodiments, the robotic process automation system facilitates automation of a remote control workflow that the artificial intelligence system employs to remotely control the vehicle. [00692] Referring to Fig.51, a transportation system 5111 is provided having an artificial intelligence system 5136 that automatically randomizes a parameter of an in-vehicle experience in order to improve a user state that benefits from variation. In embodiments, a system used to control a driver or passenger experience (such as in a self-driving car, assisted car, or conventional vehicle) may be configured to automatically undertake actions based on an objective or feedback function, such as where an artificial intelligence system 5136 is trained on outcomes from a training data set to provide outputs to one or more vehicle systems to improve health, satisfaction, mood, safety, one or more financial metrics, efficiency, or the like. [00693] Such systems may involve a wide range of in-vehicle experience parameters (including any of the experience parameters described herein, such as driving experience (including assisted and self-driving, as well as vehicle responsiveness to inputs, such as in controlled suspension performance, approaches to curves, braking and the like), seat positioning (including lumbar support, leg room, seatback angle, seat height and angle, etc.), climate control (including ventilation, window or moonroof state (e.g., open or closed), temperature, humidity, fan speed, air motion and the like), sound (e.g., volume, bass, treble, individual speaker control, focus area of sound, etc.), content (audio, video and other types, including music, news, advertising and the like), route selection (e.g., for speed, for road experience (e.g., smooth or rough, flat or hilly, straight or curving), for points of interest (POIs), for view (e.g., scenic routes), for novelty (e.g., to see different locations), and/or for defined purposes (e.g., shopping opportunities, saving fuel, refueling opportunities, recharging opportunities, or the like). [00694] In many situations, variation of one or more vehicle experience parameters may provide or result in a preferred state for a vehicle 5110 (or set of vehicles), a user (such as vehicle rider 51120), or both, as compared to seeking to find a single optimized state of such a parameter. For example, while a user may have a preferred seat position, sitting in the same position every day, or during an extended period on the same day, may have adverse effects, such as placing undue pressure on certain joints, promoting atrophy of certain muscles, diminishing flexibility of soft tissue, or the like. In such a situation, an automated control system (including one that is configured to use artificial intelligence of any of the types described herein) may be configured to induce variation in one or more of the user experience parameters described herein, optionally with random variation or with variation that is according to a prescribed pattern, such as one that may be prescribed according to a regimen, such as one developed to provide physical therapy, chiropractic, or other medical or health benefits. As one example, seat positioning may be varied over time to promote health of joints, muscles, ligaments, cartilage or the like. As another example, consistent with evidence that human health is improved when an individual experiences significant variations in temperature, humidity, and other climate factors, a climate control system may be varied (randomly or according to a defined regimen) to provide varying temperature, humidity, fresh air (including by opening windows or ventilation) or the like in order to improve the health, mood, or alertness of a user. [00695] An artificial intelligence-based control system 5136 may be trained on a set of outcomes (of various types described herein) to provide a level of variation of a user experience that achieves desired outcomes, including selection of the timing and extent of such variations. As another example, an audio system may be varied to preserve hearing (such as based on tracking accumulated sound pressure levels, accumulated dosage, or the like), to promote alertness (such as by varying the type of content), and/or to improve health (such as by providing a mix of stimulating and relaxing content). In embodiments, such an artificial intelligence system 5136 may be fed sensor data 51444, such as from a wearable device 51157 (including a sensor set) or a physiological sensing system 51190, which includes a set of systems and/or sensors capable of providing physiological monitoring within a vehicle 5110 (e.g., a vison-based system 51186 that observes a user, a sensor 5125 embedded in a seat, a steering wheel, or the like that can measure a physiological parameter, or the like). For example, a vehicle interface 51188 (such as a steering wheel or any other interface described herein) can measure a physiological parameter (e.g., galvanic skin response, such as to indicate a stress level, cortisol level, or the like of a driver or other user), which can be used to indicate a current state for purposes of control or can be used as part of a training data set to optimize one or more parameters that may benefit from control, including control of variation of user experience to achieve desired outcomes. In one such example, an artificial intelligence system 5136 may vary parameters, such as driving experience, music and the like, to account for changes in hormonal systems of the user (such as cortisol and other adrenal system hormones), such as to induce healthy changes in state (consistent with evidence that varying cortisol levels over the course of a day are typical in healthy individuals, but excessively high or low levels at certain times of day may be unhealthy or unsafe). Such a system may, for example, “amp up” the experience with more aggressive settings (e.g., more acceleration into curves, tighter suspension, and/or louder music) in the morning when rising cortisol levels are healthy and “mellow out” the experience (such as by softer suspension, relaxing music and/or gentle driving motion) in the afternoon when cortisol levels should be dropping to lower levels to promote health. Experiences may consider both health of the user and safety, such as by ensuring that levels vary over time, but are sufficiently high to assure alertness (and hence safety) in situations where high alertness is required. While cortisol (an important hormone) is provided as an example, user experience parameters may be controlled (optionally with random or configured variation) with respect to other hormonal or biological systems, including insulin-related systems, cardiovascular systems (e.g., relating to pulse and blood pressure), gastrointestinal systems, and many others. [00696] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5111, comprising: an artificial intelligence system 5136 to automatically randomize a parameter of an in-vehicle experience to improve a user state. In embodiments, the user state benefits from variation of the parameter. [00697] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5111, comprising: a vehicle interface 51188 for gathering physiological sensed data of a rider 51120 in the vehicle 5110; and an artificial intelligence-based circuit 51189 that is trained on a set of outcomes related to rider in-vehicle experience and that induces, responsive to the sensed rider physiological data, variation in one or more of the user experience parameters to achieve at least one desired outcome in the set of outcomes, the inducing variation including control of timing and extent of the variation. [00698] In embodiments, the induced variation includes random variation. In embodiments, the induced variation includes variation that is according to a prescribed pattern. In embodiments, the prescribed pattern is prescribed according to a regimen. In embodiments, the regimen is developed to provide at least one of physical therapy, chiropractic, and other medical health benefits. In embodiments, the one or more user experience parameters affect at least one of seat position, temperature, humidity, cabin air source, or audio output. In embodiments, the vehicle interface 51188 comprises at least one wearable sensor 51157 disposed to be worn by the rider 51120. In embodiments, the vehicle interface 51188 comprises a vision system 51186 disposed to capture and analyze images from a plurality of perspectives of the rider 51120. In embodiments, the variation in one or more of the user experience parameters comprises variation in control of the vehicle 5110. [00699] In embodiments, variation in control of the vehicle 5110 includes configuring the vehicle 5110 for aggressive driving performance. In embodiments, variation in control of the vehicle 5110 includes configuring the vehicle 5110 for non-aggressive driving performance. In embodiments, the variation is responsive to the physiological sensed data that includes an indication of a hormonal level of the rider 51120, and the artificial intelligence-based circuit 51189 varies the one or more user experience parameters to promote a hormonal state that promotes rider safety. [00700] Referring now to Fig.52, also provided herein are transportation systems 5211 having a system 52192 for taking an indicator of a hormonal system level of a user 5290 and automatically varying a user experience in the vehicle 5210 to promote a hormonal state that promotes safety. [00701] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5211, comprising: a system 52192 for detecting an indicator of a hormonal system level of a user 5290 and automatically varying a user experience in a vehicle 5210 to promote a hormonal state that promotes safety. [00702] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5211 comprising: a vehicle interface 52188 for gathering hormonal state data of a rider (e.g., user 5290) in the vehicle 5210; and an artificial intelligence-based circuit 52189 that is trained on a set of outcomes related to rider in-vehicle experience and that induces, responsive to the sensed rider hormonal state data, variation in one or more of the user experience parameters to achieve at least one desired outcome in the set of outcomes, the set of outcomes including a least one outcome that promotes rider safety, the inducing variation including control of timing and extent of the variation. [00703] In embodiments, the variation in the one or more user experience parameters is controlled by the artificial intelligence system 5236 to promote a desired hormonal state of the rider (e.g., user 5290). In embodiments, the desired hormonal state of the rider promotes safety. In embodiments, the at least one desired outcome in the set of outcomes is the at least one outcome that promotes rider safety. In embodiments, the variation in the one or more user experience parameters includes varying at least one of a food and a beverage offered to the rider (e.g., user 5290). In embodiments, the one or more user experience parameters affect at least one of seat position, temperature, humidity, cabin air source, or audio output. In embodiments, the vehicle interface 52188 comprises at least one wearable sensor 52157 disposed to be worn by the rider (e.g., user 5290). [00704] In embodiments, the vehicle interface 52188 comprises a vision system 52186 disposed to capture and analyze images from a plurality of perspectives of the rider (e.g., user 5290). In embodiments, the variation in one or more of the user experience parameters comprises variation in control of the vehicle 5210. In embodiments, variation in control of the vehicle 5210 includes configuring the vehicle 5210 for aggressive driving performance. In embodiments, variation in control of the vehicle 5210 includes configuring the vehicle 5210 for non-aggressive driving performance. [00705] Referring to Fig.53, provided herein are transportation systems 5311 having a system for optimizing at least one of a vehicle parameter 53159 and a user experience parameter 53205 to provide a margin of safety 53204. In embodiments, the margin of safety 53204 may be a user- selected margin of safety or user-based margin of safety, such as selected based on a profile of a user or actively selected by a user, such as by interaction with a user interface, or selected based on a profile developed by tracking user behavior, including behavior in a vehicle 5310 and in other contexts, such as on social media, in e-commerce, in consuming content, in moving from place-to-place, or the like. In many situations, there is a tradeoff between optimizing the performance of a dynamic system (such as to achieve some objective function, like fuel efficiency) and one or more risks that are present in the system. This is particularly true in situations where there is some asymmetry between the benefits of optimizing one or more parameters and the risks that are present in the dynamic systems in which the parameter plays a role. As an example, seeking to minimize travel time (such as for a daily commute), leads to an increased likelihood of arriving late, because a wide range of effects in dynamic systems, such as ones involving vehicle traffic, tend to cascade and periodically produce travel times that vary widely (and quite often adversely). Variances in many systems are not symmetrical; for example, unusually uncrowded roads may improve a 30-mile commute time by a few minutes, but an accident, or high congestion, can increase the same commute by an hour or more. Thus, to avoid risks that have high adverse consequences, a wide margin of safety may be required. In embodiments, systems are provided herein for using an expert system (which may be model- based, rule-based, deep learning, a hybrid, or other intelligent systems as described herein) to provide a desired margin of safety with respect to adverse events that are present in transportation-related dynamic systems. The margin of safety 53204 may be provided via an output of the expert system 5336, such as an instruction, a control parameter for a vehicle 5310 or an in-vehicle user experience, or the like. An artificial intelligence system 5336 may be trained to provide the margin of safety 53204 based on a training set of data based on outcomes of transportation systems, such as traffic data, weather data, accident data, vehicle maintenance data, fueling and charging system data (including in-vehicle data and data from infrastructure systems, such as charging stations, fueling stations, and energy production, transportation, and storage systems), user behavior data, user health data, user satisfaction data, financial information (e.g., user financial information, pricing information (e.g., for fuel, for food, for accommodations along a route, and the like), vehicle safety data, failure mode data, vehicle information system data, and the like), and many other types of data as described herein and in the documents incorporated by reference herein. [00706] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5311, comprising: a system for optimizing at least one of a vehicle parameter 53159 and a user experience parameter 53205 to provide a margin of safety 53204. [00707] An aspect provided herein includes a transportation system 5311 for optimizing a margin of safety when mimicking human operation of a vehicle 5310, the transportation system 5311 comprising: a set of robotic process automation systems 53181 comprising: an operator data collection module 53182 to capture human operator 5390 interactions 53201 with a vehicle control system interface 53191; a vehicle data collection module 53183 to capture vehicle response and operating conditions associated at least contemporaneously with the human operator interaction 53201; an environment data collection module 53184 to capture instances of environmental information 53203 associated at least contemporaneously with the human operator interactions 53201; and an artificial intelligence system 5336 to learn to control the vehicle 5310 with an optimized margin of safety while mimicking the human operator. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 5336 is responsive to the robotic process automation system 53181. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 5336 is to detect data indicative of at least one of a plurality of the instances of environmental information associated with the contemporaneously captured vehicle response and operating conditions. In embodiments, the optimized margin of safety is to be achieved by training the artificial intelligence system 5336 to control the vehicle 5310 based on a set of human operator interaction data collected from interactions of a set of expert human vehicle operators with the vehicle control system interface 53191. [00708] In embodiments, the operator data collection module 53182 captures patterns of data including braking patterns, follow-behind distance, approach to curve acceleration patterns, lane preferences, or passing preferences. In embodiments, the vehicle data collection module 53183 captures data from a plurality of vehicle data systems that provide data streams indicating states and changes in state in steering, braking, acceleration, forward looking images, or rear-looking images. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system includes a neural network 53108 for training the artificial intelligence system 53114. [00709] Fig.54 illustrates a method 5400 of robotic process automation for achieving an optimized margin of vehicle operational safety in accordance with embodiments of the systems and methods disclosed herein. At 5402 the method includes tracking expert vehicle control human interactions with a vehicle control-facilitating interface. At 5404 the method includes recording the tracked expert vehicle control human interactions in a robotic process automation system training data structure. At 5406 the method includes tracking vehicle operational state information of a vehicle. At 5407 the method includes recording vehicle operational state information in the robotic process automation system training data structure. At 5408 the method includes training, via at least one neural network, the vehicle to operate with an optimized margin of vehicle operational safety in a manner consistent with the expert vehicle control human interactions based on the expert vehicle control human interactions and the vehicle operational state information in the robotic process automation system training data structure. At 5409 the method includes controlling at least one aspect of the vehicle with the trained artificial intelligence system.

In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system employs a workflow that involves remote control of the vehicle and the robotic process automation system facilitates automation of remotely controlling the vehicle 5310. [00715] Referring now to Fig.56, a transportation system 5611 is depicted which includes an interface 56133 by which a set of expert systems 5657 may be configured to provide respective outputs 56193 for managing at least one of a set of vehicle parameters, a set of fleet parameters and a set of user experience parameters. [00716] Such an interface 56133 may include a graphical user interface (such as having a set of visual elements, menu items, forms, and the like that can be manipulated to enable selection and/or configuration of an expert system 5657), an application programming interface, an interface to a computing platform (e.g., a cloud-computing platform, such as to configure parameters of one or more services, programs, modules, or the like), and others. For example, an interface 56133 may be used to select a type of expert system 5657, such as a model (e.g., a selected model for representing behavior of a vehicle, a fleet or a user, or a model representing an aspect of an environment relevant to transportation, such as a weather model, a traffic model, a fuel consumption model, an energy distribution model, a pricing model or the like), an artificial intelligence system (such as selecting a type of neural network, deep learning system, or the like, of any type described herein), or a combination or hybrid thereof. For example, a user may, in an interface 56133, elect to use the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecast (ECMWF) to forecast weather events that may impact a transportation environment, along with a recurrent neural network for forecasting user shopping behavior (such as to indicate likely preferences of a user along a traffic route). [00717] Thus, an interface 56133 may be configured to provide a host, manager, operator, service provider, vendor, or other entity interacting within or with a transportation system 5611 with the ability to review a range of models, expert systems 5657, neural network categories, and the like. The interface 56133 may optionally be provided with one or more indicators of suitability for a given purpose, such as one or more ratings, statistical measures of validity, or the like. The interface 56133 may also be configured to select a set (e.g., a model, expert system, neural network, etc.) that is well adapted for purposes of a given transportation system, environment, and purpose. In embodiments, such an interface 56133 may allow a user 5690 to configure one or more parameters of an expert system 5657, such as one or more input data sources to which a model is to be applied and/or one or more inputs to a neural network, one or more output types, targets, durations, or purposes, one or more weights within a model or an artificial intelligence system, one or more sets of nodes and/or interconnections within a model, graph structure, neural network, or the like, one or more time periods of input, output, or operation, one or more frequencies of operation, calculation, or the like, one or more rules (such as rules applying to any of the parameters configured as described herein or operating upon any of the inputs or outputs noted herein), one or more infrastructure parameters (such as storage parameters, network utilization parameters, processing parameters, processing platform parameters, or the like). As one example among many other possible examples, a user 5690 may configure a selected neural network to take inputs from a weather model, a traffic model, and a real-time traffic reporting system in order to provide a real-time output 56193 to a routing system for a vehicle 5610, where the neural network is configured to have ten million nodes and to undertake processing on a selected cloud platform. [00718] In embodiments, the interface 56133 may include elements for selection and/or configuration of a purpose, an objective or a desired outcome of a system and/or sub-system, such as one that provides input, feedback, or supervision to a model, to a machine learning system, or the like. For example, a user 5690 may be allowed, in an interface 56133, to select among modes (e.g., comfort mode, sports mode, high-efficiency mode, work mode, entertainment mode, sleep mode, relaxation mode, long-distance trip mode, or the like) that correspond to desired outcomes, which may include emotional outcomes, financial outcomes, performance outcomes, trip duration outcomes, energy utilization outcomes, environmental impact outcomes, traffic avoidance outcomes, or the like. Outcomes may be declared with varying levels of specificity. Outcomes may be defined by or for a given user 5690 (such as based on a user profile or behavior) or for a group of users (such as by one or more functions that harmonizes outcomes according to multiple user profiles, such as by selecting a desired configuration that is consistent with an acceptable state for each of a set of riders). As an example, a rider may indicate a preferred outcome of active entertainment, while another rider may indicate a preferred outcome of maximum safety. In such a case, the interface 56133 may provide a reward parameter to a model or expert system 5657 for actions that reduce risk and for actions that increase entertainment, resulting in outcomes that are consistent with objectives of both riders. Rewards may be weighted, such as to optimize a set of outcomes. Competition among potentially conflicting outcomes may be resolved by a model, by rule (e.g., a vehicle owner’s objectives may be weighted higher than other riders, a parent’s over a child, or the like), or by machine learning, such as by using genetic programming techniques (such as by varying combinations of weights and/or outcomes randomly or systematically and determining overall satisfaction of a rider or set of riders). [00719] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5611, comprising: an interface 56133 to configure a set of expert systems 5657 to provide respective outputs 56193 for managing a set of parameters selected from the group consisting of a set of vehicle parameters, a set of fleet parameters, a set of user experience parameters, and combinations thereof.

In embodiments, the interface 56133 facilitates selecting a degree of specificity for outputs 56193 produced by at least one of the plurality of expert systems 5657. [00727] Referring now to Fig.57, an example of a transportation system 5711 is depicted having an expert system 5757 for configuring a recommendation for a configuration of a vehicle 5710. In embodiments, the recommendation includes at least one parameter of configuration for the expert system 5757 that controls a parameter of at least one of a vehicle parameter 57159 and a user experience parameter 57205. Such a recommendation system may recommend a configuration for a user based on a wide range of information, including data sets indicating degrees of satisfaction of other users, such as user profiles, user behavior tracking (within a vehicle and outside), content recommendation systems (such as collaborative filtering systems used to recommend music, movies, video and other content), content search systems (e.g., such as used to provide relevant search results to queries), e-commerce tracking systems (such as to indicate user preferences, interests, and intents), and many others. The recommendation system 57199 may use the foregoing to profile a rider and, based on indicators of satisfaction by other riders, determine a configuration of a vehicle 5710, or an experience within the vehicle 5710, for the rider. [00728] The configuration may use similarity (such as by similarity matrix approaches, attribute- based clustering approaches (e.g., k-means clustering) or other techniques to group a rider with other similar riders. Configuration may use collaborative filtering, such as by querying a rider about particular content, experiences, and the like and taking input as to whether they are favorable or unfavorable (optionally with a degree of favorability, such as a rating system (e.g., 5 stars for a great item of content). The recommendation system 57199 may use genetic programming, such as by configuring (with random and/or systematic variation) combinations of vehicle parameters and/or user experience parameters and taking inputs from a rider or a set of riders (e.g., a large survey group) to determine a set of favorable configurations. This may occur with machine learning over a large set of outcomes, where outcomes may include various reward functions of the type described herein, including indicators of overall satisfaction and/or indicators of specific objectives. Thus, a machine learning system or other expert systems 5757 may learn to configure the overall ride for a rider or set of riders and to recommend such a configuration for a rider. Recommendations may be based on context, such as whether a rider is alone or in a group, the time of day (or week, month or year), the type of trip, the objective of the trip, the type or road, the duration of a trip, the route, and the like.

[00738] Referring now to Fig.58, an example transportation system 5811 is depicted having a search system 58207 that is configured to provide network search results for in-vehicle searchers. [00739] Self-driving vehicles offer their riders greatly increased opportunity to engage with in- vehicle interfaces, such as touch screens, virtual assistants, entertainment system interfaces, communication interfaces, navigation interfaces, and the like. While systems exist to display the interface of a rider’s mobile device on an in-vehicle interface, the content displayed on a mobile device screen is not necessarily tuned to the unique situation of a rider in a vehicle. In fact, riders in vehicles may be collectively quite different in their immediate needs from other individuals who engage with the interfaces, as the presence in the vehicle itself tends to indicate a number of things that are different from a user sitting at home, sitting at a desk, or walking around. One activity that engages almost all device users is searching, which is undertaken on many types of devices (desktops, mobile devices, wearable devices, and others). Searches typically include keyword entry, which may include natural language text entry or spoken queries. Queries are processed to provide search results, in one or more lists or menu elements, often involving delineation between sponsored results and non-sponsored results. Ranking algorithms typically factor in a wide range of inputs, in particular the extent of utility (such as indicated by engagement, clicking, attention, navigation, purchasing, viewing, listening, or the like) of a given search result to other users, such that more useful items are promoted higher in lists. [00740] However, the usefulness of a search result may be very different for a rider in a self- driving vehicle than for more general searchers. For example, a rider who is being driven on a defined route (as the route is a necessary input to the self-driving vehicle) may be far more likely to value search results that are relevant to locations that are ahead of the rider on the route than the same individual would be sitting at the individual’s desk at work or on a computer at home. Accordingly, conventional search engines may fail to deliver the most relevant results, deliver results that crowd out more relevant results, and the like, when considering the situation of a rider in a self-driving vehicle. [00741] In embodiments, of the system 5811 of Fig. 58, a search result ranking system (search system 58207) may be configured to provide in-vehicle-relevant search results. In embodiments, such a configuration may be accomplished by segmenting a search result ranking algorithm to include ranking parameters that are observed in connection only with a set of in-vehicle searches, so that in-vehicle results are ranked based on outcomes with respect to in-vehicle searches by other users. In embodiments, such a configuration may be accomplished by adjusting the weighting parameters applied to one or more weights in a conventional search algorithm when an in-vehicle search is detected (such as by detecting an indicator of an in-vehicle system, such as by communication protocol type, IP address, presence of cookies stored on a vehicle, detection of mobility, or the like). For example, local search results may be weighted more heavily in a ranking algorithm. [00742] In embodiments, routing information from a vehicle 5810 may be used as an input to a ranking algorithm, such as allowing favorable weighting of results that are relevant to local points of interest ahead on a route. [00743] In embodiments, content types may be weighted more heavily in search results based on detection of an in-vehicle query, such as weather information, traffic information, event information and the like. In embodiments, outcomes tracked may be adjusted for in-vehicle search rankings, such as by including route changes as a factor in rankings (e.g., where a search result appears to be associated in time with a route change to a location that was the subject of a search result), by including rider feedback on search results (such as satisfaction indicators for a ride), by detecting in-vehicle behaviors that appear to derive from search results (such as playing music that appeared in a search result), and the like. [00744] In embodiments, a set of in-vehicle-relevant search results may be provided in a separate portion of a search result interface (e.g., a rider interface 58208), such as in a portion of a window that allows a rider 57120 to see conventional search engine results, sponsored search results and in-vehicle relevant search results. In embodiments, both general search results and sponsored search results may be configured using any of the techniques described herein or other techniques that would be understood by skilled in the art to provide in-vehicle-relevant search results. [00745] In embodiments where in-vehicle-relevant search results and conventional search results are presented in the same interface (e.g., the rider interface 58208), selection and engagement with in-vehicle-relevant search results can be used as a success metric to train or reinforce one or more search algorithms 58211. In embodiments, in-vehicle search algorithms 58211 may be trained using machine learning, optionally seeded by one or more conventional search models, which may optionally be provided with adjusted initial parameters based on one or more models of user behavior that may contemplate differences between in-vehicle behavior and other behavior. Machine learning may include use of neural networks, deep learning systems, model- based systems, and others. Feedback to machine learning may include conventional engagement metrics used for search, as well as metrics of rider satisfaction, emotional state, yield metrics (e.g., for sponsored search results, banner ads, and the like), and the like. [00746] An aspect provided herein includes a system for transportation 5811, comprising: a search system 58207 to provide network search results for in-vehicle searchers. [00747] An aspect provided herein includes an in-vehicle network search system 58207 of a vehicle 5810, the search system comprising: a rider interface 58208 through which the rider 58120 of the vehicle 5810 is enabled to engage with the search system 58207; a search result generating circuit 58209 that favors search results based on a set of in-vehicle search criteria that are derived from a plurality of in-vehicle searches previously conducted; and a search result display ranking circuit 58210 that orders the favored search results based on a relevance of a location component of the search results with a configured route of the vehicle 5810. [00748] In embodiments, the vehicle 5810 comprises a system for automating at least one control parameter of the vehicle 5810. In embodiments, the vehicle 5810 is at least a semi-autonomous vehicle.

[00749] In embodiments, the rider interface 58208 comprises at least one of a touch screen, a virtual assistant, an entertainment system interface, a communication interface and a navigation interface. [00750] In embodiments, the favored search results are ordered by the search result display ranking circuit 58210 so that results that are proximal to the configured route appear before other results.

In embodiments, the ranking parameters are observed in connection only with the set of in-vehicle searches. In embodiments, the search system 58207 adapts the search result generating circuit 58209 to favor search results that correlate to in-vehicle behaviors. In embodiments, the search results that correlate to in-vehicle behaviors are determined through comparison of rider behavior before and after conducting a search. In embodiments, the search system further comprises a machine learning circuit 58212 that facilitates training the search result generating circuit 58209 from a set of search results for a plurality of searchers and a set of search result generating parameters based on an in-vehicle rider behavior model.

The data from the sensors 60108 including data about vehicle states 60116 may be transmitted via a network 60120 to a cloud computing platform 60124 for storage in a memory 60126 and for processing. In embodiments, the cloud computing platform 60124 and all the elements disposed with or operating therein may be separately embodied from the remainder of the elements in the system 60100. A modeling application 60128 on the cloud computing platform 60124 includes code and functions that are operable, when executed by a processor 60132 on the cloud computing platform 60124, to generate and operate a digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104. The digital twin 60136 represents, among other things regarding the vehicle and its environment, the operating state of the vehicle 60104 through a virtual model. A user device 60140 connected to the cloud computing platform 60124 and the vehicle 60104 via the network 60120 may interact with the modeling application 60128 and other software on the cloud computing platform 60124 to receive data from and control operation of the vehicle 60104, such as through the digital twin 60136.

The cloud computing platform 60124 may enable remote configuring, and/or controlling user devices 60140 via interface 60144. Also, the cloud computing platform 60124 may facilitate storing and analyzing of data periodically gathered from user devices 60140, and providing analytics, insights and alerts to users including manufacturers, drivers or owners of the user devices 60140 via the interface 60144. [00764] In embodiments, an on-premises server may be used to host the digital twin 60136 instead of the cloud computing platform 60124. [00765] In embodiments, the network 60120 may be a conventional type, wired or wireless, and may have numerous different configurations including a star configuration, token ring configuration, or other configurations. Furthermore, the network 60120 may include a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN) (e.g., the Internet), or other interconnected data paths across which multiple devices and/or entities may communicate. In some embodiments, the network 60120 may include a peer-to-peer network. The network 60120 may also be coupled to or may include portions of a telecommunications network for sending data in a variety of different communication protocols. In some embodiments, the network 60120 includes Bluetooth® communication networks or a cellular communications network for sending and receiving data including via short messaging service (SMS), multimedia messaging service (MMS), hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), direct data connection, wireless application protocol (WAP), e-mail, DSRC, full-duplex wireless communication, etc. The network 60120 may also include a mobile data network that may include 3G, 4G, 5G, LTE, LTE-V2X, VoLTE or any other mobile data network or combination of mobile data networks. Further, the network 60120 may include one or more IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. [00766] In embodiments, digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104 is a virtual replication of hardware, software, and processes in the vehicle 60104 that combines real-time and historical operational data and includes structural models, mathematical models, physical process models, software process models, etc. In embodiments, digital twin 60136 encompasses hierarchies and functional relationships between the vehicle and various components and subsystems and may be represented as a system of systems. Thus, the digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104 may be seen to encompass the digital twins of the vehicle subsystems like vehicle interior layout, electrical and fuel subsystems as well as digital twins of components like engine, brake, fuel pump, alternator, etc. [00767] The digital twin 60136 may encompass methods and systems to represent other aspects of the vehicle environment including, without limitation a passenger environment, driver and passengers in the vehicle, environment proximal to the vehicle including nearby vehicles, infrastructure, and other objects detectable through, for example, sensors of the vehicle and sensors disposed proximal to the vehicle, such as other vehicles, traffic control infrastructure, pedestrian safety infrastructure, and the like. [00768] In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104 is configured to simulate the operation of the vehicle 60104 or any portion or environment thereof. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may be configured to communicate with a user of the vehicle 60104 via a set of communication channels, such as speech, text, gestures, and the like. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may be configured to communicate with digital twins of other entities including digital twins of users, nearby vehicles, traffic lights, pedestrians and so on. [00769] In embodiments, the digital twin is linked to an identity of a user, such that the digital twin is automatically provisioned for display and configuration via a mobile device of an identified user. For example, when a user purchases a vehicle and installs the mobile application provided by the manufacturer, the digital twin is pre-configured to be displayed and controlled by the user. [00770] In embodiments, the digital twin is integrated with an identity management system, such that capabilities to view, modify, and configure the digital twin are managed by an authentication and authorization system that parses a set of identities and roles managed by the identity management system. [00771] Fig.60 shows a schematic illustration of a digital twin system 60200 integrated with an identity and access management system 60204 in accordance with certain embodiments described herein. The Identity Manager 60208 in the identity and access management system 60204 manages the various identities, attributes and roles of users of the digital twin system 200. The Access Manager 60212 in the identity and access management system 60204 evaluates the user attributes based on access policies to provide access to authenticated users and regulates the levels of access for the users. The Identity Manager 60208 includes the credentials management 60216, user management 60220 and provisioning 60224. The credentials management 60216 manages a set of user credentials like usernames, passwords, biometrics, cryptographic keys etc. The user management 60220 manages user identities and profile information including various attributes, role definitions and preferences etc. for each user. The provisioning 60224 creates, manages and maintains the rights and privileges of the users including those related to accessing resources of the digital twin system. The Access Manager 60212 includes authentication 60228, authorization 60232 and access policies 60236. Authentication 60228 verifies the identity of a user by checking the credentials provided by the user against those stored in the credentials management 60216 and provides access to the digital twin system to verified users. The authorization 60232 parses a set of identities and roles to determine the entitlements for each user including the capabilities to view, modify, and configure the digital twin. The authorization 60232 may be performed by checking the resource access request from a user against access policies 60236. The database 60118 may store all the user directories, identity, roles, attributes, and authorization, etc. related data of the identity and access management system 60204. Roles may include driver, manufacturer, dealer, rider, owner, service department, etc. In an example of role-based digital twin authenticated access, the manufacturer role might be authorized to access content and views that are relevant to vehicle wear and tear, maintenance conditions, needs for service, quality testing etc. (e.g., to recommend replacing worn tires, adjust a vehicle operating parameter limit, such as maximum speed for badly worn tires), but not be authorized to access other content, such as content potentially considered sensitive by the vehicle owner. In embodiments, access to content by particular roles may be configured by a set of rules, by the manufacturer, by the owner of the vehicle, or the like. [00772] Fig.61 illustrates a schematic view of an interface 60300 of the digital twin system presented on the user device of a driver of the vehicle 60104. The interface 60300 includes multiple modes like a graphical user interface (GUI) mode 60304, a voice mode 60308 and an augmented reality (AR) mode 60312. Further, the digital twin 60136 may be configured to communicate with the user via multiple communication channels such as speech, text, gestures, and the like. The GUI mode 60304 may provide the driver with various graphs and charts, diagrams and tables representing the operating state of the vehicle 60104 or one or more of its components. The voice mode 60308 may provide the driver with a speech interface to communicate with the digital twin 60136 whereby the digital twin may receive queries from a driver about the vehicle 60104, generate responses for the queries and communicate such responses to the driver. The augmented reality (AR) mode 60312 may present the user with an augmented reality (AR) view that uses the forward-facing camera of the user device 60140 and enhances the screen with one or more elements from the digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104. The digital twin 60136 may display to the user a converged view of the world where a physical view is augmented with computer graphics, including imagery, animation, video, text related to directions, road signs or the like. [00773] The interface 60300 presents the driver with a set of views, with each view showing an operating state, aspect, parameter etc. of the vehicle 60104, or one or more of its components, sub-systems or environment. The 3D view 60316 presents the driver with a three-dimensional rendering of the model of the vehicle 60104. The driver may select one or more components in the 3D view to see a 3D model of the components including relevant data about the components. The navigation view 60320 may show the digital twin inside a navigation screen allowing the driver to view real-time navigation parameters. The navigation view may provide to the driver information about traffic conditions, time to destination, routes to destination and preferred routes, road conditions, weather conditions, parking lots, landmarks, traffic lights and so on. Additionally, the navigation view 60320 may provide increased situational awareness to the driver by establishing communication with nearby vehicles (V2V), pedestrians (V2P) and infrastructure (V2I) and exchanging real-time information. The energy view 60324 shows the state of fuel or battery in the vehicle 60104 including utilization and battery health. The value view 60328 shows the condition and blue book value of the vehicle 60104 based on the condition. Such information may for example, be useful when selling the vehicle 60104 in a used car market. The service view 60332 may present information and view related to wear and failure of components of the vehicle 60104 and predicts the need for service, repairs or replacement based on the current and historic operational state data. The world view 60336 may show the vehicle 60104 immersed in a virtual reality (VR) environment. [00774] The digital twin 60136 may make use of the artificial intelligence system 60112 (including any of the various expert systems, neural networks, supervised learning systems, machine learning systems, deep learning systems, and other systems described throughout this disclosure and in the documents incorporated by reference) for analyzing relevant data and presenting the various views to the driver. [00775] Fig 62 is a schematic diagram showing the interaction between the driver and the digital twin using one or more views and modes of the interface in accordance with an example embodiment of the present disclosure. The driver 60244 of the vehicle 60104 interacts with the digital twin 60136 using the interface 60300 and requests assistance in navigation, at least because the digital twin 60136 may be deployed in a virtual vehicle operating environment in which it interacts with other digital twins that may have knowledge of the environment that is not readily available to an in-vehicle navigation system, such as real-time or near real-time traffic activity, road conditions and the like that may be communicated from real-world vehicles to their respective digital twins in the virtual operating environment. Digital twin 60136 may display a navigation view 60320 to the driver 60244 that may show the position of the vehicle 60104 on a map as well as the position of nearby vehicles anticipated route of nearby vehicles (e.g., a nearby vehicle that is routed to take the next exit, yet the nearby vehicle is not yet in the exit lane), tendencies of drivers in such nearby vehicles (such as if the driver tends to change lanes without using a directional signal, and the like) and one or more candidate routes that the vehicle 60104 can take to a destination. The digital twin 60136 may also use the voice mode 60308, such as to interact with the driver 60244 and provide assistance with navigation and the like. In embodiments, the digital twin may use a combination of the GUI mode 60304 and the voice mode to respond to the driver’s queries. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may interact with the digital twins of infrastructure elements including nearby vehicles, pedestrians, traffic lights, toll-booths, street signs, refueling systems, charging systems, etc. for determining their behavior, coordinating traffic and obtaining a 3600 non-line of sight awareness of the environment. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may use a combination of the 802.11p/Dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) and the cellular V2X for interaction with infrastructure elements. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may inform the driver 60244 about upcoming abrupt sharp left or right turns that the digital twin 60136 may recognize based on behaviors of other digital twins in a multiple digital twin virtual operating environment, such as to help prevent accidents. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may interact with digital twins of nearby vehicles to identify any instances of rapid deceleration or lane changes and provide a warning to the driver 60244 about the same. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may interact with the digital twins of nearby vehicles to identify any potential driving hazards and inform the driver 60244 about the same. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may utilize external sensor data and traffic information to model the driving environment and optimize driving routes for the driver 60244. As an example of optimizing driving routes, the digital twin 60136 may determine that moving into an exit lane behind a nearby vehicle has a higher probability of avoiding unsafe driving conditions than the driver of the vehicle waiting to move into an exit lane further up the road. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may interact with digital twins of traffic lights to pick the route with minimal stops, or to suggest, among other things, when to take a bio-break, such as ahead of a long duration of traffic congestion along a route without exits. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may assist the driver in finding empty spaces in nearby parking lots and/or alert the driver to spaces which may soon be opening up by interacting with other twins to get the information. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may reach out to law enforcement authorities or police, etc. in case of any emergency or distress situation, like an accident or a crime that may be detected through interactions of the digital twin with the vehicle 60104 and the like. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may advise the driver with respect to driving speeds or behavior based on an anticipated change in driving conditions either occurring or likely to occur ahead, such as an unexpected slowdown in traffic around a blind curve. For example, the digital twin 60136 may advise the driver to reduce the driving speed to a safe range of 20-40 kmph as the weather changes from “foggy” to “rainy”. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 assists the driver 60244 in resolving any issues related to the vehicle 60104 by diagnosing such issues and then indicating options for fixing them and/or adjusting an operating parameter or mode of the vehicle 60104 to mitigate a potential for such issues to continue or worsen. For example, the driver 60244 may ask the digital twin 60136 about potential reasons for a rattling noise emerging from the vehicle 60104. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may receive an indication of the rattling noise from audio sensors deployed in/with the vehicle (e.g., in a passenger compartment, in an engine compartment, and the like) and may proactively suggest an action that the driver and/or any passenger may take to mitigate the rattling noise (e.g., securing a metal object that is vibrating against a window of the vehicle 60104 and the like). The twin may dissect the data, search for correlations, formulate diagnosis and interact with the driver 60244 to resolve the potential issues. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may communicate with other algorithms accessible by and/or through the platform 60124 that may perform, in such an instance, noise analysis and the like. For example, the digital twin 60136 may determine, through any of the means described herein, that the noise is caused by faulty hydraulics of a vehicle door, it may download and install a software update that can tweak the hydraulics of the particular door to fix the problem. Alternatively, the twin may determine that the noise is caused by a faulty exhaust system that can be fixed by replacing the catalytic converter. The twin may then proceed to resolve the issue by ordering a new catalytic converter using an e-commerce website and/or reaching out to a mechanic shop in the vicinity of the vehicle 60104. [00776] Fig.63 illustrates a schematic view of an interface of the digital twin system presented on the user device of a manufacturer 60240 of the vehicle 60104 in accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown, the interface provided to the manufacturer 60240 is different from the one displayed to the driver 60244 of the vehicle 60104. The manufacturer 60240 is shown views of the digital twin 60136 that are in line with the manufacturer’s role and needs and which may, for example, provide information useful to make modifications to a vehicle assembly line or an operating vehicle. Yet, some parts of the manufacturer’s interface might be similar to those of the driver’s interface. For example, the 3D view 60516 presents the manufacturer 60240 with a three-dimensional rendering of the model of the vehicle 60104 as well as various components and related data. The design view 60520 includes digital data describing design information for the vehicle 60104 and its individual vehicle components. For example, the design information includes Computer-Aided Design (CAD) data of the vehicle 60104 or its individual vehicle components. The design view enables the manufacturer 60240 to view the vehicle 60104 under a wide variety of representations, rotate in three dimensions allowing viewing from any desired angle, provide accurate dimensions and shapes of vehicle parts. In embodiments, the design view enables the manufacturer 60240 to use simulation methods for optimizing and driving the design of the vehicle and its components and sub-systems. In embodiments, the design view 60520 enables the manufacturer 60240 in determining the optimal system architecture of a new vehicle model through generative design techniques. The assembly view 60524 allows the manufacturer 60240 to run prescriptive models showing how the vehicle would work and to optimize the performance of the vehicle 60104 and its components and subsystems. The manufacturer 60240 may create an integrated workflow by combining design, modeling, engineering and simulation using the view. This may allow the manufacturer 60240 to predict how a vehicle would perform before committing to expensive changes in the manufacturing process. As an example, when the manufacturer 60240 is building a new model of a hybrid vehicle, it may evaluate the effect of different options for transmission, fuel type and engine displacement over metrics such as fuel economy and retail price. The simulations in the assembly view 60524 may then provide the manufacturer 60240 with different fuel economies and retail prices based on the combination of transmission, fuel type and engine displacement used in the simulation. The manufacturer 60240 may use such simulations for making business decisions for example, to determine the combinations of transmission, fuel type and engine displacement to be used in a given model for a given segment of customers. The quality view 60528 allows the manufacturer 60240 to run millions of simulations to test the components in real-world situations and generate “what-if” scenarios that can help the manufacturer 60240 avoid costly quality and recall related issues. For instance, the manufacturer 60240 may run quality scenarios to determine the effect of different hydraulic fluid options on the effectiveness of braking in a sudden-brake situation and select the option with best effectiveness. The Real-time Analytics view 60532 may allow the manufacturer 60240 to run data analytics to build a wide range of charts, graphs and models to help the manufacturer 60240 calculate a wide range of metrics and visualize the effect of change of vehicle and component parameters on the operational performance. The Service & Maintenance view 60536 may present information related to wear and failure of components of the vehicle 60104 and predicts the need for service, repairs or replacement based on the current and historic operational state data. The view may also help the manufacturer 60240 run data analytics and formulate predictions on the remaining useful life of one or more components of the vehicle 60104. [00777] Fig.64 depicts a scenario in which the manufacturer 60240 uses the quality view of digital twin interface to run simulations and generate what-if scenarios for quality testing a vehicle in accordance with an example embodiment. The digital twin interface may provide the manufacturer 60240 with a list of options related to various vehicle states to choose from. For example, the states may include velocity 60604, acceleration 60608, climate 60612, road grade 60616, drive 60620 and transmission 60624. The manufacturer 60240 may be provided with graphical menus to select different values for a given state. The digital twin 60136 may then use this combination of vehicle states to run a simulation to predict the behavior of the vehicle 60104 in a given scenario. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may display the trajectory taken by the vehicle 60104 in case of sudden braking and also provide a minimum safe distance from another vehicle driving in front of the vehicle 60104. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may display the behavior of the vehicle 60104 in case of a sudden tire blowout as well as the impact on occupants or other vehicles. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may generate a large set of realistic accident scenarios and then reliably simulate the response of the vehicle 60104 in such scenarios. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may display the trajectory taken by the vehicle 60104 in case of brake failure and the impact on occupants or other vehicles. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may communicate with the digital twins of other vehicles in proximity to help prevent the collision. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may predict a time to collision (TTC) from another vehicle at a given distance from the vehicle 60104. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may determine the crashworthiness and rollover characteristics of the vehicle 60104 in case of a collision. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may analyze the structural impact of a head-on collision on the vehicle 60104 to determine the safety of the occupant. In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may analyze the structural impact of a sideways collision on the vehicle 60104 to determine the safety of the occupant. [00778] FIG.65 illustrates a schematic view of an interface 700 of the digital twin system presented on the user device of a dealer 60702 of the vehicle 60104. As shown, the interface provided to the dealer 60702 is different from the one provided to the driver 60244 and the manufacturer 60240 of the vehicle 60104. The dealer 60702 is shown views of the digital twin 60136 that are in line with the dealer’s role and needs and which may for example, provide information useful to provide superior selling and customer experience. Yet, some parts of the dealer’s interface might be similar to those of the manufacturer’s or driver’s interface. For example, the 3D view 60716 presents the dealer 60702 with a three-dimensional rendering of the model of the vehicle 60104 as well as various components and related data. The performance tuning view 60720 allows the dealer 60702 to alter the vehicle 60104 so as to personalize the characteristics of the vehicle according to the preference of a driver or a rider. For example, vehicles may be tuned to provide better fuel economy, produce more power, or provide better handling and driving. The performance tuning view 60720 may allow the dealer 60702 in modifying or tuning the performance of one or more components like engine, body, suspension etc. The configurator view 60724 enables the dealer 60702 in helping a potential customer with configuring the various components and materials of the vehicle including engine, wheels, interiors, exterior, color, accessories, etc. based on the preference of the potential customer. The configurator view 60724 helps the dealer 60702 in determining the different possible configurations of a vehicle, selecting a configuration based on potential customer preference and then calculating the price of the selected configuration. The test drive view 60728 may allow the dealer 60702 in allowing the potential customer to virtually test drive a new or used vehicle using the digital twin 60136. The certification view 60732 allows a used car dealer to provide certification about the condition of a used vehicle to a potential customer using the digital twin. The Service & Maintenance view 60736 may present information related to wear and failure of components of the vehicle 60104 and predicts the need for service, repairs or replacement based on the current and historic operational state data. The view may also help the dealer 60702 run data analytics and formulate predictions on remaining useful life of one or more components of the vehicle 60104. [00779] Fig.66 is a diagram illustrating the interaction between the dealer 60702 and the digital twin 60136 using one or more views with the goal of personalizing the experience of a potential customer purchasing the vehicle 60104 in accordance with an example embodiment. The digital twin 60136 enables the dealer 60702 to interactively select one or more components or options to configure a vehicle based on customer preferences as well as the availability and compatibility of the components. Further, the digital twin 60136 enables the dealer 60702 to alter the performance of the vehicle 60104 in line with customer preferences as well as allow the customer to test drive the customized vehicle before finally purchasing the same. [00780] The dealer 60702 of the vehicle 60104 interacts with the digital twin 60136 using a configurator view 60724 of the interface 60700 and requests for assistance in configuring a vehicle for a customer. The digital twin 60136 may display the GUI 60704 of the configurator view 60724 to the dealer 60702 showing all the different options available for one or more components. The dealer 60702 may then select one or more components using a drop-down menu or use drag and drop operations to add one or more components to configure the vehicle as per the preference of the customer. In the example embodiment, the GUI view 60704 of the digital twin displays options for vehicle grade 60804, engine 60808, seats 60812, color 60816 and wheels 60820. [00781] The digital twin 60136 may check for compatibility between one or more components selected by the dealer 60702 with the model of the vehicle 60104 using a set of predefined database of valid relationships. In embodiments, certain combinations of components may not be compatible with a given grade of a vehicle and the dealer 60702 may be advised about the same. For example, grade EX may stand for the based model of the vehicle and may not offer the option of leather seats. Similarly, grade ZX may stand for the premium model of the vehicle and may not offer CVT engine, fabric seats and 20” aluminum wheels. In embodiments, the dealer 60702 is only displayed compatible combinations by the configurator view. The configurator view of digital twin then allows the dealer 60702 to configure the complete vehicle by adding a set of compatible components and subsystems. Upon completing the configuration, the digital twin 60136 calculates the price 60824 of the assembled vehicle based on the price of individual components and presents the same to the dealer 60702. [00782] In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may also use voice mode 60708 to interact with the dealer 60702 and provide assistance with configuration. In embodiments, the digital twin 136 may use a combination of the GUI mode 60704 and the voice mode 60708 to respond to the dealer’s queries. [00783] In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may further allow the dealer 60702 to assist the customer in tuning the performance of the vehicle using the performance tuning view 60720. The dealer 60702 may be presented with different modes 60828 including sports, fuel-efficient, outdoor and comfort and may pick one of them to tune the performance of the vehicle 60104 accordingly. [00784] Similarly, the digital twin 60136 may present to an owner of the vehicle 60136 with views showing an operating state, aspect, parameter, etc. of the vehicle 60104, or one or more of its components, subsystems or environment based on the owner’s requirements. Fleet monitoring view may allow an owner to track and monitor the movement/route/condition of one or more vehicles. The driver behavior monitoring view may allow the owner to monitor instances of unsafe or dangerous driving by a driver. The insurance view may assist the owner in determining the insurance policy quote of a vehicle based on the vehicle condition. The compliance view may show a compliance status of the vehicle with respect to emission/pollution and other regulatory norms based on the condition of the vehicle. [00785] Similarly, the digital twin 60136 may present to a rider of the vehicle 60136 with views showing aspects relevant for the rider. For example, the rider may be provided an experience optimization view allowing the rider to select an experience mode to personalize the riding experience based on rider preferences/ ride objectives. The rider may select from one or more experience modes including comfort mode, sports mode, high-efficiency mode, work mode, entertainment mode, sleep mode, relaxation mode, and long-distance trip mode. [00786] Fig.67 is a diagram illustrating the service & maintenance view presented to a user of a vehicle including a driver 60244, a manufacturer 60240 and a dealer 60702 of the vehicle 60104 in accordance with an example embodiment. The service & maintenance view provided by the digital twin allows a user, like the dealer 60702, to monitor the health of one or more components or subsystems of the vehicle 60104. The view shows some key components including an engine 60904, a steering 60908, a battery 60912, an exhaust & emission 60916, tires 60920, shock absorbers 60924, brake pads 60928 and a gearbox 60932. The dealer 60702 may click an icon of the component to view detailed data and diagnostics associated with that component. For example, the digital twin 60136 may present the dealer 60702 with analytics related to parameters like vibration 60936 and temperature 60940 as well as historical vehicle data 60944 and real-time series sensor data 948. The digital twin 60136 may also conduct a health scan to discover no issues with engine health and present a “0 issues detected” message to the dealer 60702. The digital twin 60136 may also allow the dealer 60702 to conduct a full health scan on the complete vehicle (instead of component-wise scanning). The digital twin may diagnose the issues and assist the dealer 60702 in resolving the issues. In the example, the digital twin detects two issues upon full health scan as “loose shock absorber” and “faulty sparkplug wire”. [00787] In embodiments, the digital twin 60136 may also help predict when one or more components of the vehicle should receive maintenance. The digital twin 60136 may predict the anticipated wear and failure of components of the vehicle 60104 by reviewing historical and current operational data thereby reducing the risk of unplanned downtime and the need for scheduled maintenance. Instead of over-servicing or over-maintaining the vehicle 60104, any issues predicted by the digital twin 60136 may be addressed in a proactive or just-in-time manner to avoid costly downtime, repairs or replacement. [00788] The digital twin 60136 may collect on-board data including real-time sensor data about components that may be communicated through CAN network of the vehicle 60104. The digital twin 60136 may also collect historical or other data around vehicle statistics and maintenance including data on repairs and repair diagnostics from the database 60118. [00789] Predictive analytics powered by the artificial intelligence system 60112 dissect the data, search for correlations, and employ prediction modeling to determine the condition of the vehicle 60104 and predict maintenance needs and remaining useful life for one or more components. [00790] The cloud computing platform 60124 may include a system for learning on a training set of outcomes, parameters, and data collected from data sources relating to a set of vehicle activities to train artificial intelligence (including any of the various expert systems, artificial intelligence systems, neural networks, supervised learning systems, machine learning systems, deep learning systems, and other systems described throughout this disclosure) for performing condition monitoring, anomaly detection, failure forecasting and predictive maintenance of one or more components of the vehicle 60104 using the digital twin 60136. [00791] In embodiments, the cloud computing platform 60124 may include a system for learning on a training set of vehicle maintenance outcomes, parameters, and data collected from data sources relating to a set of vehicle activities to train the artificial intelligence system 60112 to perform predictive maintenance on the vehicle 60104 using the digital twin 60136. [00792] In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 60112 may train models, such as predictive models (e.g., various types of neural networks, classification based models, regression- based models, and other machine-learned models). In embodiments, training can be supervised, semi-supervised, or unsupervised. In embodiments, training can be done using training data, which may be collected or generated for training purposes. [00793] An example artificial intelligence system trains a vehicle predictive maintenance model. A predictive maintenance model may be a model that receives vehicle-related data and outputs one or more predictions or answers regarding the remaining life of the vehicle 60104. The training data can be gathered from multiple sources including vehicle or component specifications, environmental data, sensor data, operational information, and outcome data. The artificial intelligence system 60112 takes in the raw data, pre-processes it and applies machine learning algorithms to generate the predictive maintenance model. In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 60112 may store the predictive model in a model datastore within the database 60118. [00794] The artificial intelligence system 60112 may train multiple predictive models to answer different questions on predictive maintenance. For example, a classification model may be trained to predict failure within a given time window, while a regression model may be trained to predict the remaining useful life of the vehicle 60104 or one or more components. [00795] In embodiments, training may be done based on feedback received by the system, which is also referred to as “reinforcement learning.” In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 60112 may receive a set of circumstances that led to a prediction (e.g., attributes of vehicle, attributes of a model, and the like) and an outcome related to the vehicle and may update the model according to the feedback. [00796] In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 60112 may use a clustering algorithm to identify the failure pattern hidden in the failure data to train a model for detecting uncharacteristic or anomalous behavior for one or more components. The failure data across multiple vehicles and their historical records may be clustered to understand how different patterns correlate to certain wear-down behavior and develop a maintenance plan to resonant with the failure. [00797] In embodiments, the artificial intelligence system 60112 may output scores for each possible prediction, where each prediction corresponds to a possible outcome. For example, in using a predictive model used to determine a likelihood that the vehicle 60104 or one or more components will fail in the next one week, the predictive model may output a score for a “will fail” outcome and a score for a “will not fail” outcome. The artificial intelligence system 60112 may then select the outcome with the greater score as the prediction. Alternatively, the system 60112 may output the respective scores to a requesting system. In embodiments, the output from system 60112 includes a probability of the prediction’s accuracy. [00798] Fig.68 is an example method used by digital twin 60136 for detecting faults and predicting any future failures of the vehicle 60104 in accordance with an example embodiment. [00799] At 61002, a plurality of streams of vehicle-related data from multiple data sources is received by the digital twin 60136. This includes vehicle specifications like mechanical properties, data from maintenance records, operating data collected from the sensors 60112, historical data including failure data from multiple vehicles running at different times and under different operating conditions and so on. At 61004, the raw data is cleaned by removing any missing or noisy data, which may occur due to any technical problems in the vehicle 60104 at the time of collection of data. At 61006, one or more models are selected for training by the digital twin 60136. The selection of the model is based on the kind of data available at the digital twin 60136 and the desired outcome of the model. For example, there may be cases where failure data from vehicles is not available, or only a limited number of failure datasets exist because of regular maintenance being performed. Classification or regression models may not work well for such cases and clustering models may be the most suitable. As another example, if the desired outcome of the model is determining the current condition of the vehicle and detecting any faults, then fault detection models may be selected, whereas if the desired outcome is predicting future failures then remaining useful life prediction model may be selected. At 61008, the one or more models are trained using training dataset and tested for performance using testing dataset. At 61010, the trained model is used for detecting faults and predicting future failure of the vehicle 60104 on production data. [00800] Fig.69 is an example embodiment depicting the deployment of the digital twin 60136 to perform predictive maintenance on the vehicle 60104. Digital twin 60136 receives data from the database 60118 on a real-time or near real-time basis. The database 60118 may store different types of data in different datastores. For example, the vehicle datastore 61102 may store data related to vehicle identification and attributes, vehicle state and event data, data from maintenance records, historical operating data, notes from vehicle service engineer, etc. The sensor datastore 61104 may store sensor data from operations including data from temperature, pressure, and vibration sensors that may be stored as signal or time-series data. The failure datastore 61106 may store failure data from the vehicle 60104 including failure data of components or similar vehicles at different times and under different operating conditions. The model datastore 61108 may store data related to different predictive models including fault detection and remaining life prediction models. [00801] The digital twin 60136 coordinates with an artificial intelligence system to select one or more models based on the kind and quality of available data and the desired answers or outcomes. For example, the physical models 61110 may be selected if the intended use of the digital twin 60136 is to simulate what-if scenarios and predict how the vehicle will behave under such scenarios. The Fault Detection and Diagnostics Models 61112 may be selected to determine the current health of the vehicle 60104 and any faulty conditions. A simple fault detection model may use or more condition indicators to distinguish between regular and faulty behaviors and may have a threshold value for the condition indicator that is indicative of a fault condition when exceeded. A more complex model may train a classifier to compare the value of one or more condition indicators to values associated with fault states, and returns the probability of the presence of one or more fault states. [00802] The Remaining Useful Life (RUL) Prediction models 61114 are used for predicting future failures and may include degradation models 61116, survival models 61118 and similarity models 61120. An example RUL prediction model may fit the time evolution of a condition indicator and predicts how long it will be before the condition indicator crosses some threshold value indicative of a failure. Another model may compare the time evolution of the condition indicator to measured or simulated time series from similar systems that ran to failure. [00803] In embodiments, a combination of one or more of these models may be selected by the digital twin 60136. [00804] The Artificial Intelligence system 60112 may include machine learning processes 61122, clustering processes 61124, analytics processes 61126 and natural language processes 61128. The machine learning processes 61122 work with the digital twin 60136 to train one or more models as identified above. An example of such machine-learned model is the RUL prediction model 61114. The model 61114 may be trained using training dataset 61130 from the database 60118. The performance of the model 61114 and classifier may then be tested using testing dataset 61132. [00805] The clustering processes 61124 may be implemented to identify the failure pattern hidden in the failure data to train a model for detecting uncharacteristic or anomalous behavior. The failure data across multiple vehicles and their historical records may be clustered to understand how different patterns correlate to certain wear-down behavior. The analytics processes 61126 perform data analytics on various data to identify insights and predict outcomes. The natural language processes 61128 coordinate with the digital twin 60136 to communicate the outcomes and results to the user of the vehicle 60104. [00806] The outcomes 60234 may be in the form of modeling results 61136, alerts and warnings 61138 or remaining useful life (RUL) predictions 61140. The digital twin 60136 may communicate with a user via multiple communication channels such as speech, text, gestures to convey outcomes 61134. [00807] In embodiments, models may then be updated or reinforced based on the model outcomes 61134. For example, the artificial intelligence system 60112 may receive a set of circumstances that led to a prediction of failure and the outcome and may update the model based on the feedback. [00808] Fig.70 is a flow chart depicting a method for generating a digital twin of a vehicle in accordance with certain embodiments of the disclosure. At 61202, a request from a user, such as an owner, a lessee, a driver, a fleet operator/owner, a mechanic, and the like associated with the vehicle 60104 is received by the vehicle 60104, such as through an interface provided in the vehicle or a user device 60140 carried by the user to provide state information of the vehicle 60104. At 61204, a digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104 is generated using one or more processors, based on one or more inputs regarding vehicle state from an on-board diagnostic system, a telemetry system, a vehicle-located sensor, and a system external to the vehicle. At 61206, the user is presented through the interface, a version of state information of the vehicle 60104 as determined by using the digital twin 60136 of the vehicle 60104 as noted above. [00809] Fig.71 is a diagrammatic view that illustrates an alternate architecture for a transportation system comprising a vehicle and a digital twin system in accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure. The vehicle 60104 includes an edge intelligence system 61304 that provides 5G connectivity to a system external to the vehicle 60104, internal connectivity to a set of sensors 60108 and data sources of the vehicle 60104, and onboard artificial intelligence system 60112. The edge intelligence system 61304 may also communicate with artificial intelligence system 60130 of the digital twin system 60200 hosted on the cloud computing platform 60124. The digital twin system 60200 may be populated via an application programming interface (API) from the edge intelligence system 61304. [00810] The edge intelligence system 61304 helps provide certain intelligence locally in the vehicle 60104 instead of relying on cloud-based intelligence. This may, for example, include tasks requiring low-overhead computations and/or those performed in low latency conditions. This helps the system perform reliably in even a limited network bandwidth situations and avoid dropouts. [00811] Fig.72 depicts a digital twin representing a combination of set of states of both a vehicle and a driver of the vehicle in accordance with certain embodiments of the present disclosure. [00812] The integrated vehicle and driver twin 61404 may be created, such as by integrating a digital twin of the vehicle 60104 with the digital twin of the driver. In embodiments, such an integration may be achieved by normalizing the 3D models used by each of the twins to represent a consistent scale, and linking via APIs to obtain regular updates of each twin (such as current operating states of the vehicle and current physiological state, posture, or the like of the driver). [00813] The integrated vehicle and driver twin may then work with the edge intelligence system 1304 to configure a vehicle experience based on the combined vehicle state 60116 and the driver state 61408. [00814] Fig.73 illustrates a schematic diagram depicting a scenario in which the integrated vehicle and the driver digital twin may configure the vehicle experience in accordance with an example embodiment. [00815] In the example scenario, the integrated vehicle and the driver twin 61404 may determine that the driver’s state is “drowsy” based on an input from a set of IR cameras tracking the pupil size and eyelid movement and a set of sensors 60108 tracking the (sagging) posture and (slower) reaction time of the driver 60244. The twin may also determine that the vehicle is “unstable” based on the tracking of speed, lateral position, turning angles and moving course. The integrated vehicle and driver twin 61404 may communicate with the driver 60244 alerting the driver 60244 about the potential safety hazards driving in such a state. Alternatively, the integrated vehicle and the driver twin 61404 may take one or more steps to wake the driver like switching on music or turning up the volume and/or ensure driver and vehicle safety by switching the vehicle into an autopilot or autosteer mode. [00816] As another example, the integrated vehicle and the driver twin may use information about the vehicle state (e.g., amount of fuel remaining) and the driver state (e.g., time since the driver last ate), to activate a point of interest suggestion function to suggest a detour along a planned route to a good place to eat that passes by a preferred fuel provider. [00817] In embodiments, an integrated vehicle and the rider twin may be created, such as by integrating a digital twin of the vehicle 60104 with the digital twin of the rider. In embodiments, such an integration may be achieved by normalizing the 3D models used by each of the twins to represent a consistent scale and linking via APIs to obtain regular updates of each twin (such as current operating states of the vehicle and current physiological state, posture, or the like of the rider). [00818] In embodiments, the integrated vehicle and the rider twin are updated when a second rider enters the vehicle. [00819] In embodiments, the integrated vehicle and the rider twin may work with the edge intelligence system 61304 to configure a vehicle experience based on the combined vehicle state and the rider state. [00820] For example, the integrated vehicle and rider twin may determine that the rider state is “fatigued” based on an input from one or more sensors 60108, etc. In embodiments, a seat- integrated and sensor-enabled fabric wrapped around the parts of the body of the rider may assist the twin in determining the rider state. The twin may also determine that the vehicle state includes high traffic congestion and damaged road conditions. The integrated vehicle and the rider twin may then take one or more actions to provide comfort to the rider: the twin may activate a seat-integrated robotic exoskeleton element for providing functional support to the rider including support for arms, legs, back and neck/head. Alternatively, the twin may activate an electrostimulation element on the seat-integrated and sensor-enabled fabric wrapped around the parts of the body of the rider including torso, legs, etc. for providing relaxation and comfort to the rider. [00821] As another example, the integrated vehicle and the rider twin may determine that the rider state is “shivery” based on an input from one or more sensors 60108, etc. In embodiments, a seat-integrated and sensor-enabled fabric wrapped around the parts of the body of the rider may assist the twin in determining the rider state. The twin may also determine that the vehicle state includes rainy weather conditions. The integrated vehicle and rider twin may then take one or more actions to provide warmth to the rider: the twin may activate a warming element or an element for mid-infrared (penetrating heat) on the seat-integrated and sensor-enabled fabric wrapped around the parts of the body of the rider including torso, legs, etc. for providing warmth and comfort to the rider. [00822] In embodiments, a digital twin may represent a set of items contained in a vehicle, such as ones recognized by a network (e.g., by having device identifiers recognized by the network, such as device identifiers of cellular phones, laptops, tablets, or other computing devices) and/or ones identified by in-vehicle sensors, such as cameras, including ones using computer vision for object recognition. Thus, a digital twin may provide a view of a user of the interior contents of the vehicle that depicts to presence or absence of the items, such that the user can confirm the same. This may assist with finding lost items, with confirming the presence of items required for a trip (such as coordinated with a packing list, including a digital packing list), with confirming the presence of sports equipment, provisions, portable seats, umbrellas, or other accessories or personal property items of the user. In embodiments, the digital twin of the vehicle may integrate with, or integrate information from, a set of digital twins that represent other items, including items of personal property of the user of the digital twin. In embodiments, an application, such as a mobile application, may be provided, such as by or linked to a vehicle manufacturer or dealer, or the like, for tracking the personal items of a user, including a typical set of vehicle accessories and items typically transported or stored in a vehicle, via a set of digital twins that each represent some or all of the items. A user may be prompted to enter the items, such as by identifying the items by name or description, by linking to the items (such as by linking to or from identifiers in e-commerce sites (or to communications from such sites, such as confirmation emails indicating purchases), by capturing photographs of the items, by capturing QR codes, bar codes, or the like of the items, or other techniques. Identified items may be represented in a set of digital twins based on type (such as by retrieving dimensions, images, and other attributes from relevant data sources, such as e-commerce sites or providers), or based on actual images (which may be sized based on dimensional information captured during image capture, such as using structured light, LIDAR or other dimension estimating techniques). In the mobile application, the user may indicate a wish to track the personal property, in which case location tracking systems, including tag-based systems (such as RFID systems), label-based systems (such as QR systems), sensor- based systems (such as using cameras and other sensors), network-based systems (such as Internet of Things systems) and others may track the locations of the personal property. In embodiments, the location information from a location tracking system may represent the items in a set of digital twins, such as ones representing a user’s vehicle, locations within a user’s vehicle (in a vehicle digital twin), locations within a user’s home (such as in a home digital twin), locations within a user’s workplace (such as in a workplace digital twin), or the like. In embodiments, a user may select an item in the mobile application, such as from a list or menu, or via a search function, and the mobile application will retrieve the appropriate digital twin and display the item within the digital twin based on the current location of the item. [00823] Referring to Fig.74, the artificial intelligence system 65248 may define a machine learning model 65102 for performing analytics, simulation, decision making, and prediction making related to data processing, data analysis, simulation creation, and simulation analysis of one or more of the transportation entities. The machine learning model 65102 is an algorithm and/or statistical model that performs specific tasks without using explicit instructions, relying instead on patterns and inference. The machine learning model 65102 builds one or more mathematical models based on training data to make predictions and/or decisions without being explicitly programmed to perform the specific tasks. The machine learning model 65102 may receive inputs of sensor data as training data, including event data 65124 and state data 65702 related to one or more of the transportation entities. The sensor data input to the machine learning model 65102 may be used to train the machine learning model 65102 to perform the analytics, simulation, decision making, and prediction making relating to the data processing, data analysis, simulation creation, and simulation analysis of the one or more of the transportation entities. The machine learning model 65102 may also use input data from a user or users of the information technology system. The machine learning model 65102 may include an artificial neural network, a decision tree, a support vector machine, a Bayesian network, a genetic algorithm, any other suitable form of machine learning model, or a combination thereof. The machine learning model 65102 may be configured to learn through supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, self-learning, feature learning, sparse dictionary learning, anomaly detection, association rules, a combination thereof, or any other suitable algorithm for learning. [00824] The artificial intelligence system 65248 may also define the digital twin system 65330 to create a digital replica of one or more of the transportation entities. The digital replica of the one or more of the transportation entities may use substantially real-time sensor data to provide for substantially real-time virtual representation of the transportation entity and provides for simulation of one or more possible future states of the one or more transportation entities. The digital replica exists simultaneously with the one or more transportation entities being replicated. The digital replica provides one or more simulations of both physical elements and properties of the one or more transportation entities being replicated and the dynamics thereof, in embodiments, throughout the lifestyle of the one or more transportation entities being replicated. The digital replica may provide a hypothetical simulation of the one or more transportation entities, for example during a design phase before the one or more transportation entities are constructed or fabricated, or during or after construction or fabrication of the one or more transportation entities by allowing for hypothetical extrapolation of sensor data to simulate a state of the one or more transportation entities, such as during high stress, after a period of time has passed during which component wear may be an issue, during maximum throughput operation, after one or more hypothetical or planned improvements have been made to the one or more transportation entities, or any other suitable hypothetical situation. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may automatically predict hypothetical situations for simulation with the digital replica, such as by predicting possible improvements to the one or more transportation entities, predicting when one or more components of the one or more transportation entities may fail, and/or suggesting possible improvements to the one or more transportation entities, such as changes to timing settings, arrangement, components, or any other suitable change to the transportation entities. The digital replica allows for simulation of the one or more transportation entities during both design and operation phases of the one or more transportation entities, as well as simulation of hypothetical operation conditions and configurations of the one or more transportation entities. The digital replica allows for invaluable analysis and simulation of the one or more transportation entities, by facilitating observation and measurement of nearly any type of metric, including temperature, wear, light, vibration, etc. not only in, on, and around each component of the one or more transportation entities, but in some embodiments within the one or more transportation entities. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may process the sensor data including the event data 65124 and the state data 65702 to define simulation data for use by the digital twin system 65330. The machine learning model 65102 may, for example, receive state data 65702 and event data 65124 related to a particular transportation entity of the plurality of transportation entities and perform a series of operations on the state data 65702 and the event data 65124 to format the state data 65702 and the event data 65124 into a format suitable for use by the digital twin system 65330 in creation of a digital replica of the transportation entity. For example, one or more transportation entities may include a robot configured to augment products on an adjacent assembly line. The machine learning model 65102 may collect data from one or more sensors positioned on, near, in, and/or around the robot. The machine learning model 65102 may perform operations on the sensor data to process the sensor data into simulation data and output the simulation data to the digital twin system 65330. The digital twin simulation 65330 may use the simulation data to create one or more digital replicas of the robot, the simulation including for example metrics including temperature, wear, speed, rotation, and vibration of the robot and components thereof. The simulation may be a substantially real-time simulation, allowing for a human user of the information technology to view the simulation of the robot, metrics related thereto, and metrics related to components thereof, in substantially real time. The simulation may be a predictive or hypothetical situation, allowing for a human user of the information technology to view a predictive or hypothetical simulation of the robot, metrics related thereto, and metrics related to components thereof. [00825] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 and the digital twin system 65330 may process sensor data and create a digital replica of a set of transportation entities of the plurality of transportation entities to facilitate design, real-time simulation, predictive simulation, and/or hypothetical simulation of a related group of transportation entities. The digital replica of the set of transportation entities may use substantially real-time sensor data to provide for substantially real-time virtual representation of the set of transportation entities and provide for simulation of one or more possible future states of the set of transportation entities. The digital replica exists simultaneously with the set of transportation entities being replicated. The digital replica provides one or more simulations of both physical elements and properties of the set of transportation entities being replicated and the dynamics thereof, in embodiments throughout the lifestyle of the set of transportation entities being replicated. The one or more simulations may include a visual simulation, such as a wire-frame virtual representation of the one or more transportation entities that may be viewable on a monitor, using an augmented reality (AR) apparatus, or using a virtual reality (VR) apparatus. The visual simulation may be able to be manipulated by a human user of the information technology system, such as zooming or highlighting components of the simulation and/or providing an exploded view of the one or more transportation entities. The digital replica may provide a hypothetical simulation of the set of transportation entities, for example during a design phase before the one or more transportation entities are constructed or fabricated, or during or after construction or fabrication of the one or more transportation entities by allowing for hypothetical extrapolation of sensor data to simulate a state of the set of transportation entities, such as during high stress, after a period of time has passed during which component wear may be an issue, during maximum throughput operation, after one or more hypothetical or planned improvements have been made to the set of transportation entities, or any other suitable hypothetical situation. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may automatically predict hypothetical situations for simulation with the digital replica, such as by predicting possible improvements to the set of transportation entities, predicting when one or more components of the set of transportation entities may fail, and/or suggesting possible improvements to the set of transportation entities, such as changes to timing settings, arrangement, components, or any other suitable change to the transportation entities. The digital replica allows for simulation of the set of transportation entities during both design and operation phases of the set of transportation entities, as well as simulation of hypothetical operation conditions and configurations of the set of transportation entities. The digital replica allows for invaluable analysis and simulation of the one or more transportation entities, by facilitating observation and measurement of nearly any type of metric, including temperature, wear, light, vibration, etc. not only in, on, and around each component of the set of transportation entities, but in some embodiments within the set of transportation entities. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may process the sensor data including the event data 65124 and the state data 65702 to define simulation data for use by the digital twin system 65330. The machine learning model 65102 may, for example, receive state data 65702 and event data 65124 related to a particular transportation entity of the plurality of transportation entities and perform a series of operations on the state data 65702 and the event data 65124 to format the state data 65702 and the event data 65124 into a format suitable for use by the digital twin system 65330 in the creation of a digital replica of the set of transportation entities. For example, a set of transportation entities may include a die machine configured to place products on a conveyor belt, the conveyor belt on which the die machine is configured to place the products, and a plurality of robots configured to add parts to the products as they move along the assembly line. The machine learning model 65102 may collect data from one or more sensors positioned on, near, in, and/or around each of the die machines, the conveyor belt, and the plurality of robots. The machine learning model 65102 may perform operations on the sensor data to process the sensor data into simulation data and output the simulation data to the digital twin system 65330. The digital twin simulation 65330 may use the simulation data to create one or more digital replicas of the die machine, the conveyor belt, and the plurality of robots, the simulation including for example metrics including temperature, wear, speed, rotation, and vibration of the die machine, the conveyor belt, and the plurality of robots and components thereof. The simulation may be a substantially real-time simulation, allowing for a human user of the information technology to view the simulation of the die machine, the conveyor belt, and the plurality of robots, metrics related thereto, and metrics related to components thereof, in substantially real time. The simulation may be a predictive or hypothetical situation, allowing for a human user of the information technology to view a predictive or hypothetical simulation of the die machine, the conveyor belt, and the plurality of robots, metrics related thereto, and metrics related to components thereof. [00826] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may prioritize collection of sensor data for use in digital replica simulations of one or more of the transportation entities. The machine learning model 65102 may use sensor data and user inputs to train, thereby learning which types of sensor data are most effective for creation of digital replicate simulations of one or more of the transportation entities. For example, the machine learning model 65102 may find that a particular transportation entity has dynamic properties such as component wear and throughput affected by temperature, humidity, and load. The machine learning model 65102 may, through machine learning, prioritize collection of sensor data related to temperature, humidity, and load, and may prioritize processing sensor data of the prioritized type into simulation data for output to the digital twin system 65330. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may suggest to a user of the information technology system that more and/or different sensors of the prioritized type be implemented in the information technology near and around the transportation entity being simulation such that more and/or better data of the prioritized type may be used in simulation of the transportation entity via the digital replica thereof. [00827] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be configured to learn to determine which types of sensor data are to be processed into simulation data for transmission to the digital twin system 65330 based on one or both of a modeling goal and a quality or type of sensor data. A modeling goal may be an objective set by a user of the information technology system or may be predicted or learned by the machine learning model 65102. Examples of modeling goals include creating a digital replica capable of showing dynamics of throughput on an assembly line, which may include collection, simulation, and modeling of, e.g., thermal, electrical power, component wear, and other metrics of a conveyor belt, an assembly machine, one or more products, and other components of the transportation ecosystem. The machine learning model 65102 may be configured to learn to determine which types of sensor data are necessary to be processed into simulation data for transmission to the digital twin system 65330 to achieve such a model. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may analyze which types of sensor data are being collected, the quality and quantity of the sensor data being collected, and what the sensor data being collected represents, and may make decisions, predictions, analyses, and/or determinations related to which types of sensor data are and/or are not relevant to achieving the modeling goal and may make decisions, predictions, analyses, and/or determinations to prioritize, improve, and/or achieve the quality and quantity of sensor data being processed into simulation data for use by the digital twin system 65330 in achieving the modeling goal. [00828] In some embodiments, a user of the information technology system may input a modeling goal into the machine learning model 65102. The machine learning model 65102 may learn to analyze training data to output suggestions to the user of the information technology system regarding which types of sensor data are most relevant to achieving the modeling goal, such as one or more types of sensors positioned in, on, or near a transportation entity or a plurality of transportation entities that is relevant to the achievement of the modeling goal is and/or are not sufficient for achieving the modeling goal, and how a different configuration of the types of sensors, such as by adding, removing, or repositioning sensors, may better facilitate achievement of the modeling goal by the machine learning model 65102 and the digital twin system 65330. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may automatically increase or decrease collection rates, processing, storage, sampling rates, bandwidth allocation, bitrates, and other attributes of sensor data collection to achieve or better achieve the modeling goal. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may make suggestions or predictions to a user of the information technology system related to increasing or decreasing collection rates, processing, storage, sampling rates, bandwidth allocation, bitrates, and other attributes of sensor data collection to achieve or better achieve the modeling goal. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may use sensor data, simulation data, previous, current, and/or future digital replica simulations of one or more transportation entities of the plurality of transportation entities to automatically create and/or propose modeling goals. In some embodiments, modeling goals automatically created by the machine learning model 65102 may be automatically implemented by the machine learning model 65102. In some embodiments, modeling goals automatically created by the machine learning model 65102 may be proposed to a user of the information technology system, and implemented only after acceptance and/or partial acceptance by the user, such as after modifications are made to the proposed modeling goal by the user. [00829] In some embodiments, the user may input the one or more modeling goals, for example, by inputting one or more modeling commands to the information technology system. The one or more modeling commands may include, for example, a command for the machine learning model 65102 and the digital twin system 65330 to create a digital replica simulation of one transportation entity or a set of transportation entities, may include a command for the digital replica simulation to be one or more of a real-time simulation, and a hypothetical simulation. The modeling command may also include, for example, parameters for what types of sensor data should be used, sampling rates for the sensor data, and other parameters for the sensor data used in the one or more digital replica simulations. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be configured to predict modeling commands, such as by using previous modeling commands as training data. The machine learning model 65102 may propose predicted modeling commands to a user of the information technology system, for example, to facilitate simulation of one or more of the transportation entities that may be useful for the management of the transportation entities and/or to allow the user to easily identify potential issues with or possible improvements to the transportation entities. [00830] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be configured to evaluate a set of hypothetical simulations of one or more of the transportation entities. The set of hypothetical simulations may be created by the machine learning model 65102 and the digital twin system 65330 as a result of one or more modeling commands, as a result of one or more modeling goals, one or more modeling commands, by prediction by the machine learning model 65102, or a combination thereof. The machine learning model 65102 may evaluate the set of hypothetical simulations based on one or more metrics defined by the user, one or more metrics defined by the machine learning model 65102, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may evaluate each of the hypothetical simulations of the set of hypothetical simulations independently of one another. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may evaluate one or more of the hypothetical simulations of the set of hypothetical simulations in relation to one another, for example by ranking the hypothetical simulations or creating tiers of the hypothetical simulations based on one or more metrics. [00831] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may include one or more model interpretability systems to facilitate human understanding of outputs of the machine learning model 65102, as well as information and insight related to cognition and processes of the machine learning model 65102, i.e., the one or more model interpretability systems allow for human understanding of not only “what” the machine learning model 65102 is outputting, but also “why” the machine learning model 65102 is outputting the outputs thereof, and what process led to the 65102 formulating the outputs. The one or more model interpretability systems may also be used by a human user to improve and guide training of the machine learning model 65102, to help debug the machine learning model 65102, to help recognize bias in the machine learning model 65102. The one or more model interpretability systems may include one or more of linear regression, logistic regression, a generalized linear model (GLM), a generalized additive model (GAM), a decision tree, a decision rule, RuleFit, Naive Bayes Classifier, a K-nearest neighbors algorithm, a partial dependence plot, individual conditional expectation (ICE), an accumulated local effects (ALE) plot, feature interaction, permutation feature importance, a global surrogate model, a local surrogate (LIME) model, scoped rules, i.e. anchors, Shapley values, Shapley additive explanations (SHAP), feature visualization, network dissection, or any other suitable machine learning interpretability implementation. In some embodiments, the one or more model interpretability systems may include a model dataset visualization system. The model dataset visualization system is configured to automatically provide to a human user of the information technology system visual analysis related to distribution of values of the sensor data, the simulation data, and data nodes of the machine learning model 65102. [00832] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may include and/or implement an embedded model interpretability system, such as a Bayesian case model (BCM) or glass box. The Bayesian case model uses Bayesian case-based reasoning, prototype classification, and clustering to facilitate human understanding of data such as the sensor data, the simulation data, and data nodes of the machine learning model 65102. In some embodiments, the model interpretability system may include and/or implement a glass box interpretability method, such as a Gaussian process, to facilitate human understanding of data such as the sensor data, the simulation data, and data nodes of the machine learning model 65102. [00833] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may include and/or implement testing with concept activation vectors (TCAV). The TCAV allows the machine learning model 65102 to learn human-interpretable concepts, such as “running,” “not running,” “powered,” “not powered,” “robot,” “human,” “truck,” or “ship” from examples by a process including defining the concept, determining concept activation vectors, and calculating directional derivatives. By learning human-interpretable concepts, objects, states, etc., TCAV may allow the machine learning model 65102 to output useful information related to the transportation entities and data collected therefrom in a format that is readily understood by a human user of the information technology system. [00834] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be and/or include an artificial neural network, e.g. a connectionist system configured to “learn” to perform tasks by considering examples and without being explicitly programmed with task-specific rules. The machine learning model 65102 may be based on a collection of connected units and/or nodes that may act like artificial neurons that may in some ways emulate neurons in a biological brain. The units and/or nodes may each have one or more connections to other units and/or nodes. The units and/or nodes may be configured to transmit information, e.g. one or more signals, to other units and/or nodes, process signals received from other units and/or nodes, and forward processed signals to other units and/or nodes. One or more of the units and/or nodes and connections therebetween may have one or more numerical “weights” assigned. The assigned weights may be configured to facilitate learning, i.e. training, of the machine learning model 65102. The weights assigned weights may increase and/or decrease one or more signals between one or more units and/or nodes, and in some embodiments may have one or more thresholds associated with one or more of the weights. The one or more thresholds may be configured such that a signal is only sent between one or more units and/or nodes, if a signal and/or aggregate signal crosses the threshold. In some embodiments, the units and/or nodes may be assigned to a plurality of layers, each of the layers having one or both of inputs and outputs. A first layer may be configured to receive training data, transform at least a portion of the training data, and transmit signals related to the training data and transformation thereof to a second layer. A final layer may be configured to output an estimate, conclusion, product, or other consequence of processing of one or more inputs by the machine learning model 65102. Each of the layers may perform one or more types of transformations, and one or more signals may pass through one or more of the layers one or more times. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may employ deep learning and being at least partially modeled and/or configured as a deep neural network, a deep belief network, a recurrent neural network, and/or a convolutional neural network, such as by being configured to include one or more hidden layers. [00835] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be and/or include a decision tree, e.g. a tree-based predictive model configured to identify one or more observations and determine one or more conclusions based on an input. The observations may be modeled as one or more “branches” of the decision tree, and the conclusions may be modeled as one or more “leaves” of the decision tree. In some embodiments, the decision tree may be a classification tree. the classification tree may include one or more leaves representing one or more class labels, and one or more branches representing one or more conjunctions of features configured to lead to the class labels. In some embodiments, the decision tree may be a regression tree. The regression tree may be configured such that one or more target variables may take continuous values. [00836] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be and/or include a support vector machine, e.g. a set of related supervised learning methods configured for use in one or both of classification and regression-based modeling of data. The support vector machine may be configured to predict whether a new example falls into one or more categories, the one or more categories being configured during training of the support vector machine. [00837] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be configured to perform regression analysis to determine and/or estimate a relationship between one or more inputs and one or more features of the one or more inputs. Regression analysis may include linear regression, wherein the machine learning model 65102 may calculate a single line to best fit input data according to one or more mathematical criteria. [00838] In embodiments, inputs to the machine learning model 65102 (such as a regression model, Bayesian network, supervised model, or other types of model) may be tested, such as by using a set of testing data that is independent from the data set used for the creation and/or training of the machine learning model, such as to test the impact of various inputs to the accuracy of the model 65102. For example, inputs to the regression model may be removed, including single inputs, pairs of inputs, triplets, and the like, to determine whether the absence of inputs creates a material degradation of the success of the model 65102. This may assist with recognition of inputs that are in fact correlated (e.g., are linear combinations of the same underlying data), that are overlapping, or the like. Comparison of model success may help select among alternative input data sets that provide similar information, such as to identify the inputs (among several similar ones) that generate the least “noise” in the model, that provide the most impact on model effectiveness for the lowest cost, or the like. Thus, input variation and testing of the impact of input variation on model effectiveness may be used to prune or enhance model performance for any of the machine learning systems described throughout this disclosure. [00839] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be and/or include a Bayesian network. The Bayesian network may be a probabilistic graphical model configured to represent a set of random variables and conditional independence of the set of random variables. The Bayesian network may be configured to represent the random variables and conditional independence via a directed acyclic graph. The Bayesian network may include one or both of a dynamic Bayesian network and an influence diagram. [00840] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via supervised learning, i.e. one or more algorithms configured to build a mathematical model of a set of training data containing one or more inputs and desired outputs. The training data may consist of a set of training examples, each of the training examples having one or more inputs and desired outputs, i.e. a supervisory signal. Each of the training examples may be represented in the machine learning model 65102 by an array and/or a vector, i.e. a feature vector. The training data may be represented in the machine learning model 65102 by a matrix. The machine learning model 65102 may learn one or more functions via iterative optimization of an objective function, thereby learning to predict an output associated with new inputs. Once optimized, the objective function may provide the machine learning model 65102 with the ability to accurately determine an output for inputs other than inputs included in the training data. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via one or more supervised learning algorithms such as active learning, statistical classification, regression analysis, and similarity learning. Active learning may include interactively querying, by the machine learning model 65102, a user and/or an information source to label new data points with desired outputs. Statistical classification may include identifying, by the machine learning model 65102, to which a set of subcategories, i.e. subpopulations, a new observation belongs based on a training set of data containing observations having known categories. Regression analysis may include estimating, by the machine learning model 65102 relationships between a dependent variable, i.e. an outcome variable, and one or more independent variables, i.e. predictors, covariates, and/or features. Similarity learning may include learning, by the machine learning model 65102, from examples using a similarity function, the similarity function being designed to measure how similar or related two objects are. [00841] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via unsupervised learning, i.e. one or more algorithms configured to build a mathematical model of a set of data containing only inputs by finding structure in the data such as grouping or clustering of data points. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may learn from test data, i.e. training data, that has not been labeled, classified, or categorized. The unsupervised learning algorithm may include identifying, by the machine learning model 65102, commonalities in the training data and learning by reacting based on the presence or absence of the identified commonalities in new pieces of data. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may generate one or more probability density functions. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may learn by performing cluster analysis, such as by assigning a set of observations into subsets, i.e. clusters, according to one or more predesignated criteria, such as according to a similarity metric of which internal compactness, separation, estimated density, and/or graph connectivity are factors. [00842] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via semi- supervised learning, i.e. one or more algorithms using training data wherein some training examples may be missing training labels. The semi-supervised learning may be weakly supervised learning, wherein the training labels may be noisy, limited, and/or imprecise. The noisy, limited, and/or imprecise training labels may be cheaper and/or less labor intensive to produce, thus allowing the machine learning model 65102 to train on a larger set of training data for less cost and/or labor. [00843] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via reinforcement learning, such as one or more algorithms using dynamic programming techniques such that the machine learning model 65102 may train by taking actions in an environment in order to maximize a cumulative reward. In some embodiments, the training data is represented as a Markov Decision Process. [00844] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via self- learning, wherein the machine learning model 65102 is configured to train using training data with no external rewards and no external teaching, such as by employing a Crossbar Adaptive Array (CAA). The CAA may compute decisions about actions and/or emotions about consequence situations in a crossbar fashion, thereby driving teaching of the machine learning model 65102 by interactions between cognition and emotion. [00845] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via feature learning, i.e. one or more algorithms designed to discover increasingly accurate and/or apt representations of one or more inputs provided during training, e.g. training data. Feature learning may include training via principal component analysis and/or cluster analysis. Feature learning algorithms may include attempting, by the machine learning model 65102, to preserve input training data while also transforming the input training data such that the transformed input training data is useful. In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be configured to transform the input training data prior to performing one or more classifications and/or predictions of the input training data. Thus, the machine learning model 65102 may be configured to reconstruct input training data from one or more unknown data-generating distributions without necessarily conforming to implausible configurations of the input training data according to the distributions. In some embodiments, the feature learning algorithm may be performed by the machine learning model 65102 in a supervised, unsupervised, or semi- supervised manner. [00846] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via anomaly detection, i.e. by identifying rare and/or outlier instances of one or more items, events and/or observations. The rare and/or outlier instances may be identified by the instances differing significantly from patterns and/or properties of a majority of the training data. Unsupervised anomaly detection may include detecting of anomalies, by the machine learning model 65102, in an unlabeled training data set under an assumption that a majority of the training data is “normal.” Supervised anomaly detection may include training on a data set wherein at least a portion of the training data has been labeled as “normal” and/or “abnormal.” [00847] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 may be defined via robot learning. Robot learning may include generation, by the machine learning model 65102, of one or more curricula, the curricula being sequences of learning experiences, and cumulatively acquiring new skills via exploration guided by the machine learning model 65102 and social interaction with humans by the machine learning model 65102. Acquisition of new skills may be facilitated by one or more guidance mechanisms such as active learning, maturation, motor synergies, and/or imitation. [00848] In some embodiments, the machine learning model 65102 can be defined via association rule learning. Association rule learning may include discovering relationships, by the machine learning model 65102, between variables in databases, in order to identify strong rules using some measure of “interestingness.” Association rule learning may include identifying, learning, and/or evolving rules to store, manipulate and/or apply knowledge. The machine learning model 65102 may be configured to learn by identifying and/or utilizing a set of relational rules, the relational rules collectively representing knowledge captured by the machine learning model 65102. Association rule learning may include one or more of learning classifier systems, inductive logic programming, and artificial immune systems. Learning classifier systems are algorithms that may combine a discovery component, such as one or more genetic algorithms, with a learning component, such as one or more algorithms for supervised learning, reinforcement learning, or unsupervised learning. Inductive logic programming may include rule- learning, by the machine learning model 65102, using logic programming to represent one or more of input examples, background knowledge, and hypothesis determined by the machine learning model 65102 during training. The machine learning model 65102 may be configured to derive a hypothesized logic program entailing all positive examples given an encoding of known background knowledge and a set of examples represented as a logical database of facts.

The multiple outputs include a first output and second output configured to be switchable between a condition in which the first output is configured to switch between delivery of the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal and a condition in which there is simultaneous delivery of the first sensor signal from the first output and the second sensor signal from the second output. Each of multiple inputs is configured to be individually assigned to any of the multiple outputs. Unassigned outputs are configured to be switched off producing a high-impedance state. In some examples, the switch 278 can be a crosspoint switch. [00852] In embodiments, the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal are continuous vibration data about the transportation system. In embodiments, the second sensor in the sensor system 25 is configured to be connected to the first machine. In embodiments, the second sensor in the sensor system 25 is configured to be connected to a second machine in the transportation system. In embodiments, the computing environment of the platform is configured to compare relative phases of the first and second sensor signals. In embodiments, the first sensor is a single- axis sensor and the second sensor is a three-axis sensor. In embodiments, at least one of the multiple inputs of the switch 278 includes internet protocol, front-end signal conditioning, for improved signal-to-noise ratio. In embodiments, the switch 278 includes a third input that is configured with a continuously monitored alarm having a pre-determined trigger condition when the third input is unassigned to any of the multiple outputs. [00853] In embodiments, multiple inputs of the switch 278 include a third input connected to the second sensor and a fourth input connected to the second sensor. The first sensor signal is from a single-axis sensor at an unchanging location associated with the first machine. In embodiments, the second sensor is a three-axis sensor. In embodiments, the sensor system 25 is configured to record gap-free digital waveform data simultaneously from at least the first input, the second input, the third input, and the fourth input. In embodiments, the platform is configured to determine a change in relative phase based on the simultaneously recorded gap-free digital waveform data. In embodiments, the second sensor is configured to be movable to a plurality of positions associated with the first machine while obtaining the simultaneously recorded gap-free digital waveform data. In embodiments, multiple outputs of the switch include a third output and fourth output. The second, third, and fourth outputs are assigned together to a sequence of tri- axial sensors each located at different positions associated with the machine. In embodiments, the platform is configured to determine an operating deflection shape based on the change in relative phase and the simultaneously recorded gap-free digital waveform data. [00854] In embodiments, the unchanging location is a position associated with the rotating shaft of the first machine. In embodiments, tri-axial sensors in the sequence of the tri-axial sensors are each located at different positions on the first machine but are each associated with different bearings in the machine. In embodiments, tri-axial sensors in the sequence of the tri-axial sensors are each located at similar positions associated with similar bearings but are each associated with different machines. In embodiments, the sensor system 25 is configured to obtain the simultaneously recorded gap-free digital waveform data from the first machine while the first machine and a second machine are both in operation. In embodiments, the sensor system 25 is configured to characterize a contribution from the first machine and the second machine in the simultaneously recorded gap-free digital waveform data from the first machine. In embodiments, the simultaneously recorded gap-free digital waveform data has a duration that is in excess of one minute. [00855] In embodiments, a method of monitoring a machine having at least one shaft supported by a set of bearings includes monitoring a first data channel assigned to a single-axis sensor at an unchanging location associated with the machine. The method includes monitoring second, third, and fourth data channels each assigned to an axis of a three-axis sensor. The method includes recording gap-free digital waveform data simultaneously from all of the data channels while the machine is in operation and determining a change in relative phase based on the digital waveform data. [00856] In embodiments, the tri-axial sensor is located at a plurality of positions associated with the machine while obtaining the digital waveform. In embodiments, the second, third, and fourth channels are assigned together to a sequence of tri-axial sensors each located at different positions associated with the machine. In embodiments, the data is received from all of the sensors simultaneously. In embodiments, the method includes determining an operating deflection shape based on the change in relative phase information and the waveform data. In embodiments, the unchanging location is a position associated with the shaft of the machine. In embodiments, the tri-axial sensors in the sequence of the tri-axial sensors are each located at different positions and are each associated with different bearings in the machine. In embodiments, the unchanging location is a position associated with the shaft of the machine. The tri-axial sensors in the sequence of the tri-axial sensors are each located at different positions and are each associated with different bearings that support the shaft in the machine. [00857] In embodiments, the method includes monitoring the first data channel assigned to the single-axis sensor at an unchanging location located on a second machine. The method includes monitoring the second, the third, and the fourth data channels, each assigned to the axis of a three-axis sensor that is located at the position associated with the second machine. The method also includes recording gap-free digital waveform data simultaneously from all of the data channels from the second machine while both of the machines are in operation. In embodiments, the method includes characterizing the contribution from each of the machines in the gap-free digital waveform data simultaneously from the second machine. [00858] In some embodiments, on-device sensor fusion and data storage for network connected devices is supported, including on-device sensor fusion and data storage for a network connected device, where data from multiple sensors is multiplexed at the device for storage of a fused data stream. For example, pressure and temperature data may be multiplexed into a data stream that combines pressure and temperature in a time series, such as in a byte-like structure (where time, pressure, and temperature are bytes in a data structure, so that pressure and temperature remain linked in time, without requiring separate processing of the streams by outside systems), or by adding, dividing, multiplying, subtracting, or the like, such that the fused data can be stored on the device. Any of the sensor data types described throughout this disclosure, including vibration data, can be fused in this manner and stored in a local data pool, in storage, or on an IoT device, such as a data collector, a component of a machine, or the like. [00859] In some embodiments, a set of digital twins may represent an organization, such as an energy transport organization, an oil and gas transport organization, aerospace manufacturers, vehicle manufacturers, heavy equipment manufacturers, a mining organization, a drilling organization, an offshore platform organization, and the like. In these examples, the digital twins may include digital twins of one or more transportation systems of the organization. [00860] In embodiments, the digital twin management system 202 generates digital twins. A digital twin may be comprised of (e.g., via reference) other digital twins. In this way, a discrete digital twin may be comprised of a set of other discrete digital twins. For example, a digital twin of a machine may include digital twins of sensors on the machine, digital twins of components that make up the machine, digital twins of other devices that are incorporated in or integrated with the machine (such as systems that provide inputs to the machine or take outputs from it), and/or digital twins of products or other items that are made by the machine. Taking this example one step further, a digital twin of a transportation system may include a digital twin representing the layout of the transportation system, including the arrangement of physical assets and systems in or around the transportation system, as well as digital assets of the assets within the transportation system (e.g., the digital twin of the machine), as well as digital twins of storage areas in the transportation system, digital twins of humans collecting vibration measurements from machines throughout the transportation system, and the like. In this second example, the digital twin of the transportation system may reference the embedded digital twins, which may then reference other digital twins embedded within those digital twins. [00861] In some embodiments, a digital twin may represent abstract entities, such as workflows and/or processes, including inputs, outputs, sequences of steps, decision points, processing loops, and the like that make up such workflows and processes. For example, a digital twin may be a digital representation of a manufacturing process, a logistics workflow, an agricultural process, a mineral extraction process, or the like. In these embodiments, the digital twin may include references to the transportation entities that are included in the workflow or process. The digital twin of the manufacturing process may reflect the various stages of the process. In some of these embodiments, the digital twin system 200 receives real-time data from the transportation system (e.g., from a sensor system 25 of the transportation system 11) in which the manufacturing process takes place and reflects a current (or substantially current) state of the process in real- time. [00862] In embodiments, the digital representation may include a set of data structures (e.g., classes) that collectively define a set of properties of a represented physical object 222, device 265, sensor 227, or transportation system 11 and/or possible behaviors thereof. For example, the set of properties of a physical object 222 may include a type of the physical object, the dimensions of the object, the mass of the object, the density of the object, the material(s) of the object, the physical properties of the material(s), the surface of the physical object, the status of the physical object, a location of the physical object, identifiers of other digital twins contained within the object, and/or other suitable properties. Examples of behavior of a physical object may include a state of the physical object (e.g., a solid, liquid, or gas), a melting point of the physical object, a density of the physical object when in a liquid state, a viscosity of the physical object when in a liquid state, a freezing point of the physical object, a density of the physical object when in a solid state, a hardness of the physical object when in a solid state, the malleability of the physical object, the buoyancy of the physical object, the conductivity of the physical object, a burning point of the physical object, the manner by which humidity affects the physical object, the manner by which water or other liquids affect the physical object, a terminal velocity of the physical object, and the like. In another example, the set of properties of a device may include a type of the device, the dimensions of the device, the mass of the device, the density of the density of the device, the material(s) of the device, the physical properties of the material(s), the surface of the device, the output of the device, the status of the device, a location of the device, a trajectory of the device, vibration characteristics of the device, identifiers of other digital twins that the device is connected to and/or contains, and the like. Examples of the behaviors of a device may include a maximum acceleration of a device, a maximum speed of a device, ranges of motion of a device, a heating profile of a device, a cooling profile of a device, processes that are performed by the device, operations that are performed by the device, and the like. Example properties of an environment may include the dimensions of the environment, the boundaries of the environment, the temperature of the environment, the humidity of the environment, the airflow of the environment, the physical objects in the environment, currents of the environment (if a body of water), and the like. Examples of behaviors of an environment may include scientific laws that govern the environment, processes that are performed in the environment, rules or regulations that must be adhered to in the environment, and the like. [00863] In embodiments, the properties of a digital twin may be adjusted. For example, the temperature of a digital twin, a humidity of a digital twin, the shape of a digital twin, the material of a digital twin, the dimensions of a digital twin, or any other suitable parameters may be adjusted. As the properties of the digital twin are adjusted, other properties may be affected as well. For example, if the temperature of a volume associated with a transportation system 11 is increased, the pressure within the volume may increase as well, such as a pressure of a gas in accordance with the ideal gas law. In another example, if a digital twin of a subzero volume is increased to above freezing temperatures, the properties of an embedded twin of water in a solid state (i.e., ice) may change into a liquid state over time. [00864] Digital twins may be represented in a number of different forms. In embodiments, a digital twin may be a visual digital twin that is rendered by a computing device, such that a human user can view digital representations of a transportation system 11 and/or the physical objects 222, devices 265, and/or the sensors 227 within an environment. In embodiments, the digital twin may be rendered and output to a display device. In some of these embodiments, the digital twin may be rendered in a graphical user interface, such that a user may interact with the digital twin. For example, a user may “drill down” on a particular element (e.g., a physical object or device) to view additional information regarding the element (e.g., a state of a physical object or device, properties of the physical object or device, or the like). In some embodiments, the digital twin may be rendered and output in a virtual reality display. For example, a user may view a 3D rendering of a transportation system (e.g., using monitor or a virtual reality headset). While doing so, the user may view/inspect digital twins of physical assets or devices in the environment. [00865] In some embodiments, a data structure of the visual digital twins (i.e., digital twins that are configured to be displayed in a 2D or 3D manner) may include surfaces (e.g., splines, meshes, polygons meshes, or the like). In some embodiments, the surfaces may include texture data, shading information, and/or reflection data. In this way, a surface may be displayed in a more realistic manner. In some embodiments, such surfaces may be rendered by a visualization engine (not shown) when the digital twin is within a field of view and/or when existing in a larger digital twin (e.g., a digital twin of a transportation system). In these embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may render the surfaces of digital objects, whereby a rendered digital twin may be depicted as a set of adjoined surfaces. [00866] In embodiments, a user may provide input that controls one or more properties of a digital twin via a graphical user interface. For example, a user may provide input that changes a property of a digital twin. In response, the digital twin system 200 can calculate the effects of the changed property and may update the digital twin and any other digital twins affected by the change of the property. [00867] In embodiments, a user may view processes being performed with respect to one or more digital twins (e.g., manufacturing of a product, extracting minerals from a mine or well, a livestock inspection line, and the like). In these embodiments, a user may view the entire process or specific steps within a process. [00868] In some embodiments, a digital twin (and any digital twins embedded therein) may be represented in a non-visual representation (or “data representation”). In these embodiments, a digital twin and any embedded digital twins exist in a binary representation but the relationships between the digital twins are maintained. For example, in embodiments, each digital twin and/or the components thereof may be represented by a set of physical dimensions that define a shape of the digital twin (or component thereof). Furthermore, the data structure embodying the digital twin may include a location of the digital twin. In some embodiments, the location of the digital twin may be provided in a set of coordinates. For example, a digital twin of a transportation system may be defined with respect to a coordinate space (e.g., a Cartesian coordinate space, a polar coordinate space, or the like). In embodiments, embedded digital twins may be represented as a set of one or more ordered triples (e.g., [x coordinate, y coordinate, z coordinates] or other vector-based representations). In some of these embodiments, each ordered triple may represent a location of a specific point (e.g., center point, top point, bottom point, or the like) on the transportation entity (e.g., object, device, or sensor) in relation to the environment in which the transportation entity resides. In some embodiments, a data structure of a digital twin may include a vector that indicates a motion of the digital twin with respect to the environment. For example, fluids (e.g., liquids or gasses) or solids may be represented by a vector that indicates a velocity (e.g., direction and magnitude of speed) of the entity represented by the digital twin. In embodiments, a vector within a twin may represent a microscopic subcomponent, such as a particle within a fluid, and a digital twin may represent physical properties, such as displacement, velocity, acceleration, momentum, kinetic energy, vibrational characteristics, thermal properties, electromagnetic properties, and the like. [00869] In some embodiments, a set of two or more digital twins may be represented by a graph database that includes nodes and edges that connect the nodes. In some implementations, an edge may represent a spatial relationship (e.g., “abuts”, “rests upon”, “contains”, and the like). In these embodiments, each node in the graph database represents a digital twin of an entity (e.g., a transportation entity) and may include the data structure defining the digital twin. In these embodiments, each edge in the graph database may represent a relationship between two entities represented by connected nodes. In some implementations, an edge may represent a spatial relationship (e.g., “abuts”, “rests upon”, “interlocks with”, “bears”, “contains”, and the like). In embodiments, various types of data may be stored in a node or an edge. In embodiments, a node may store property data, state data, and/or metadata relating to a facility, system, subsystem, and/or component. Types of property data and state data will differ based on the entity represented by a node. For example, a node representing a robot may include property data that indicates a material of the robot, the dimensions of the robot (or components thereof), a mass of the robot, and the like. In this example, the state data of the robot may include a current pose of the robot, a location of the robot, and the like. In embodiments, an edge may store relationship data and metadata data relating to a relationship between two nodes. Examples of relationship data may include the nature of the relationship, whether the relationship is permanent (e.g., a fixed component would have a permanent relationship with the structure to which it is attached or resting on), and the like. In embodiments, an edge may include metadata concerning the relationship between two entities. For example, if a product was produced on an assembly line, one relationship that may be documented between a digital twin of the product and the assembly line may be “created by”. In these embodiments, an example edge representing the “created by” relationship may include a timestamp indicating a date and time that the product was created. In another example, a sensor may take measurements relating to a state of a device, whereby one relationship between the sensor and the device may include “measured” and may define a measurement type that is measured by the sensor. In this example, the metadata stored in an edge may include a list of N measurements taken and a timestamp of each respective measurement. In this way, temporal data relating to the nature of the relationship between two entities may be maintained, thereby allowing for an analytics engine, machine-learning engine, and/or visualization engine to leverage such temporal relationship data, such as by aligning disparate data sets with a series of points in time, such as to facilitate cause-and-effect analysis used for prediction systems. [00870] In some embodiments, a graph database may be implemented in a hierarchical manner, such that the graph database relates a set of facilities, systems, and components. For example, a digital twin of a manufacturing environment may include a node representing the manufacturing environment. The graph database may further include nodes representing various systems within the manufacturing environment, such as nodes representing an HVAC system, a lighting system, a manufacturing system, and the like, all of which may connect to the node representing the manufacturing system. In this example, each of the systems may further connect to various subsystems and/or components of the system. For example, within the HVAC system, the HVAC system may connect to a subsystem node representing a cooling system of the facility, a second subsystem node representing a heating system of the facility, a third subsystem node representing the fan system of the facility, and one or more nodes representing a thermostat of the facility (or multiple thermostats). Carrying this example further, the subsystem nodes and/or component nodes may connect to lower level nodes, which may include subsystem nodes and/or component nodes. For example, the subsystem node representing the cooling subsystem may be connected to a component node representing an air conditioner unit. Similarly, a component node representing a thermostat device may connect to one or more component nodes representing various sensors (e.g., temperature sensors, humidity sensors, and the like). [00871] In embodiments where a graph database is implemented, a graph database may relate to a single environment, transportation entity or transportation system or may represent a larger enterprise. In the latter scenario, a company may have various manufacturing and distribution facilities, as well as transportation entities and systems. In these embodiments, an enterprise node representing the enterprise may connect to transportation system nodes of each respective facility. In this way, the digital twin system 200 may maintain digital twins for multiple facilities, and transportation systems of an enterprise. [00872] In embodiments, such an enterprise may involve any sort of business or organization. In some embodiments, a transportation system may be the enterprise, for example, an airport. In other examples, an enterprise may include or be linked to a transportation system, for example a moving and storage company. [00873] In embodiments, an example of an enterprise could be a cruise line. The cruise line enterprise may be a business that owns and operates a fleet of cruise ships. The cruise line enterprise may also own or operate real estate and buildings, for example cruise terminals and resorts. Digital twins may be useful for representing the cruise line enterprise at various levels of abstraction and from various points of view. It may be advantageous for digital twins to have different characteristics appropriate to the various roles/responsibilities of the enterprise. The Chief Engineer of a ship may be interested in the ship’s ability to provide electrical power to the electric motors that drive the propellers. The Hotel Director of a ship may be the head of a department that is responsible for all guest services, entertainment, and revenue of the ship. While the Hotel Director may have an interest in the power generating capability of the ship, the appropriate level of detail regarding power generation would be different for a Hotel Director compared to the Chief Engineer. Similarly, the Captain of the ship and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the cruise line would have different points of view, and the appropriate level of abstraction could be different for each. [00874] Another example of an enterprise could be a delivery service. The delivery service may be a business that operates transportation systems that include a fleet of aircraft, a fleet of trucks, and a fleet of smaller vehicles including automobiles. The delivery service may also operate real estate and buildings, for example, airport terminals, truck depots and sorting facilities. The delivery service may be organized to have individuals in charge of various functions of the enterprise; for example, aircraft operations and ground operations. Digital twins may be useful for representing the delivery service enterprise at various levels of abstraction and from various points of view. The various roles of the enterprise, having different responsibilities, may find utility in digital twins having different characteristics. A Chief Engineer of aircraft operations may be interested in the potential for a particular jet engine type to cause unexpected aircraft downtime. The Chief Engineer of ground operations may have an interest in the aircraft downtime, but the appropriate level of detail regarding jet engines would be different for Chief Engineer of ground operations compared to the Chief Engineer of aircraft operations. Similarly, the president of aircraft operations, and the CEO of the delivery service enterprise would have different points of view, and the appropriate level of abstraction could be different for each. [00875] Digital twins can be helpful for visualizing the current state of a system, running simulations on the system, and modeling behaviors, amongst many other uses. Depending on the configuration of the digital twin, however, a particular view or feature may not be useful for some members of an organization, as the configuration of the digital twin dictates the data that is depicted/visualized by the digital twin. Thus, in some embodiments, role-based digital twins are generated. Role-based digital twins may refer to digital twins of one or more segments/aspects of an enterprise, where the one or more segments/aspects and/or the granularity of the data represented by the role-based digital twin are tailored to a particular role within the entity and/or to the identity of a user that is associated with the role (optionally accounting for the competencies, training, education, experience, authority and/or permissions of the user, or other characteristics). [00876] In embodiments, the role-based digital twins include executive digital twins. Executive digital twins may refer to digital twins that are configured for a respective executive within an enterprise. Examples of executive digital twins may include CEO digital twins, (Chief Financial Officer (CFO) digital twins, Chief Operations Officer (COO) digital twins, Human Resources (HR) digital twins, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) digital twins, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) digital twins, General Counsel (GC) digital twins, Chief Information Officer (CIO) digital twins, and the like. In some of these embodiments, the digital twin generation system 8928, also called the digital twin management system 202 (Fig.75) herein, generates different types of executive digital twins for users having different roles within the organization. In some of these embodiments, the respective configuration of each type of executive digital twin may be predefined with default digital twin data types, default relationships among entities, default features, and default granularities, among other elements. The default data types, entities, features and granularities may be determined based on a model of an organization, which may, in turn, be based on an industry-specific or domain-specific model or template, such as one that is based on a typical organizational structure for an industry (e.g., an automotive manufacturer, a consumer packaged goods manufacturer, a nationwide retailer, a regional grocery chain, or many others). In embodiments, an artificial intelligence system may be trained, such as on a labeled industry specific or domain-specific data set, to automatically generate an industry-specific or domain-specific digital twin for an organization, with default configuration of data types, entities, features and granularities for various roles within an organization of that industry or domain. The defaults can then be reconfigured in a user interface of an authorized user to reflect company- specific variations from the industry-specific or domain-specific defaults. In some embodiments, a user (e.g., during an on-boarding process) may define the types of data depicted in the different types of executive digital twins, the entities to be represented, the features to be provided and/or the granularities of the different types of executive digital twins. Features may include what data is permitted to be accessed, what views are represented, levels of granularity of views, what analytic models and results can be accessed, what simulations can be undertaken, what changes can be made (including changes relevant to permissions of other users), communication and collaboration features (including receipt of alerts and the capacity to communicate directly to digital twins of other roles and users), control features, and many others. For convenience of reference, references to views, data, features, control or granularity throughout this disclosure should be understood to encompass any and all of the above, except where context specifically indicates otherwise. Granularity may refer to the level of detail at which a particular type of data or types of data is/are represented in a digital twin. For example, a CEO digital twin may include P&L data for a particular time period but may not depict the various revenue streams and costs that contribute to the P&L data during the time period. Continuing this example, the CFO digital twin may depict the various revenue streams and costs during the time period in addition to the high-level P&L data. The foregoing examples are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Additional examples and configurations of different executive digital twins are described throughout the disclosure. [00877] In some embodiments, executive digital twins may allow a user (e.g., a CEO, CFO, COO, VP, Board member, GC, or the like) to increase the granularity of a particular state depicted in the digital twin (also referred to "drilling down into" a state of the digital twin) For example, a CEO digital twin may depict low granularity snapshots or summaries of P&L data, sales figures, customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, and the like. A user (e.g., the CEO of an enterprise) may opt to drill down into the P&L data via a client application depicting the CEO digital twin. In response, the digital twin system may provide higher resolution P&L data, such as real-time revenue streams, real-time cost streams, and the like. In another example, the CEO digital twin may include visual indicators of different states of the enterprise. For example, the CEO digital twin may depict different colored icons to differentiate a condition (e.g., current and/or forecasted condition) of a respective data item. For example, a red icon may indicate a warning state, a yellow icon may indicate a neutral state, and a green icon may indicate a satisfactory state. In this example, the user (e.g., a CEO) may drill down into a particular data item (e.g., may select a red sales icon to drill down into the sales data, to see more specific and/or additional data, in order to determine why there is the warning state). In response, the CEO digital twin may depict one or more different data streams relating to the selected data item. [00878] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may use a graph database to generate a digital twin that may be rendered and displayed and/or may be represented in a data representation. In the former scenario, the digital twin system 200 may receive a request to render a digital twin, whereby the request includes one or more parameters that are indicative of a view that will be depicted. For example, the one or more parameters may indicate a transportation system to be depicted and the type of rendering (e.g., “real-world view” that depicts the environment as a human would see it, an “infrared view” that depicts objects as a function of their respective temperature, an “airflow view” that depicts the airflow in a digital twin, or the like). In response, the digital twin system 200 may traverse a graph database and may determine a configuration of the transportation system to be depicted based on the nodes in the graph database that are related (either directly or through a lower level node) to the transportation system node of the transportation system and the edges that define the relationships between the related nodes. Upon determining a configuration, the digital twin system 200 may identify the surfaces that are to be depicted and may render those surfaces. The digital twin system 200 may then render the requested digital twin by connecting the surfaces in accordance with the configuration. The rendered digital twin may then be output to a viewing device (e.g., VR headset, monitor, or the like). In some scenarios, the digital twin system 200 may receive real- time sensor data from a sensor system 25 of a transportation system 11 and may update the visual digital twin based on the sensor data. For example, the digital twin system 200 may receive sensor data (e.g., vibration data from a vibration sensor 235) relating to a motor and its set of bearings. Based on the sensor data, the digital twin system 200 may update the visual digital twin to indicate the approximate vibrational characteristics of the set of bearings within a digital twin of the motor. [00879] In scenarios where the digital twin system 200 is providing data representations of digital twins (e.g., for dynamic modeling, simulations, machine learning), the digital twin system 200 may traverse a graph database and may determine a configuration of the transportation system to be depicted based on the nodes in the graph database that are related (either directly or through a lower level node) to the transportation system node of the transportation system and the edges that define the relationships between the related nodes. In some scenarios, the digital twin system 200 may receive real-time sensor data from a sensor system 25 of a transportation system 11 and may apply one or more dynamic models to the digital twin based on the sensor data. In other scenarios, a data representation of a digital twin may be used to perform simulations, as is discussed in greater detail throughout the specification. [00880] In some embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may execute a digital ghost that is executed with respect to a digital twin of a transportation system. In these embodiments, the digital ghost may monitor one or more sensors of a sensor system 25 of a transportation system to detect anomalies that may indicate a malicious virus or other security issues. [00881] As discussed, the digital twin system 200 may include a digital twin management system 202, a digital twin I/O system 204, a digital twin simulation system 206, a digital twin dynamic model system 208, a cognitive intelligence system 258, and/or an environment control system 234. [00882] In embodiments, the digital twin management system 202 creates new digital twins, maintains/updates existing digital twins, and/or renders digital twins. The digital twin management system 202 may receive user input, uploaded data, and/or sensor data to create and maintain existing digital twins. Upon creating a new digital twin, the digital twin management system 202 may store the digital twin in the digital twin datastore 269. Creating, updating, and rendering digital twins are discussed in greater detail throughout the disclosure. [00883] In embodiments, the digital twin I/O system 204 receives input from various sources and outputs data to various recipients. In embodiments, the digital twin I/O system receives sensor data from one or more sensor systems 25. In these embodiments, each sensor system 25 may include one or more IoT sensors that output respective sensor data. Each sensor may be assigned an IP address or may have another suitable identifier. Each sensor may output sensor packets that include an identifier of the sensor and the sensor data. In some embodiments, the sensor packets may further include a timestamp indicating a time at which the sensor data was collected. In some embodiments, the digital twin I/O system 204 may interface with a sensor system 25 via the real-time sensor API 214. In these embodiments, one or more devices (e.g., sensors, aggregators, edge devices) in the sensor system 25 may transmit the sensor packets containing sensor data to the digital twin I/O system 204 via the API. The digital twin I/O system may determine the sensor system 25 that transmitted the sensor packets and the contents thereof, and may provide the sensor data and any other relevant data (e.g., time stamp, environment identifier/sensor system identifier, and the like) to the digital twin management system 202. [00884] In embodiments, the digital twin I/O system 204 may receive imported data from one or more sources. For example, the digital twin system 200 may provide a portal for users to create and manage their digital twins. In these embodiments, a user may upload one or more files (e.g., image files, LIDAR scans, blueprints, and the like) in connection with a new digital twin that is being created. In response, the digital twin I/O system 204 may provide the imported data to the digital twin management system 202. The digital twin I/O system 204 may receive other suitable types of data without departing from the scope of the disclosure. [00885] In some embodiments, the digital twin simulation system 206 is configured to execute simulations using the digital twin. For example, the digital twin simulation system 206 may iteratively adjust one or more parameters of a digital twin and/or one or more embedded digital twins. In embodiments, the digital twin simulation system 206, for each set of parameters, executes a simulation based on the set of parameters and may collect the simulation outcome data resulting from the simulation. Put another way, the digital twin simulation system 206 may collect the properties of the digital twin and the digital twins within or containing the digital twin used during the simulation as well as any outcomes stemming from the simulation. For example, in running a simulation on a digital twin of an indoor agricultural facility, the digital twin simulation system 206 can vary the temperature, humidity, airflow, carbon dioxide and/or other relevant parameters and can execute simulations that output outcomes resulting from different combinations of the parameters. In another example, the digital twin simulation system 206 may simulate the operation of a specific machine within a transportation system that produces an output given a set of inputs. In some embodiments, the inputs may be varied to determine an effect of the inputs on the machine and the output thereof. In another example, the digital twin simulation system 206 may simulate the vibration of a machine and/or machine components. In this example, the digital twin of the machine may include a set of operating parameters, interfaces, and capabilities of the machine. In some embodiments, the operating parameters may be varied to evaluate the effectiveness of the machine. The digital twin simulation system 206 is discussed in further detail throughout the disclosure. [00886] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 is configured to model one or more behaviors with respect to a digital twin of a transportation system. In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive a request to model a certain type of behavior regarding an environment or a process and may model that behavior using a dynamic model, the digital twin of the transportation system or process, and sensor data collected from one or more sensors that are monitoring the environment or process. For example, an operator of a machine having bearings may wish to model the vibration of the machine and bearings to determine whether the machine and/or bearings can withstand an increase in output. In this example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may execute a dynamic model that is configured to determine whether an increase in output would result in adverse consequences (e.g., failures, downtime, or the like). The digital twin dynamic model system 208 is discussed in further detail throughout the disclosure. [00887] In embodiments, the cognitive processes system 258 performs machine learning and artificial intelligence related tasks on behalf of the digital twin system. In embodiments, the cognitive processes system 258 may train any suitable type of model, including but not limited to various types of neural networks, regression models, random forests, decision trees, Hidden Markov models, Bayesian models, and the like. In embodiments, the cognitive processes system 258 trains machine learned models using the output of simulations executed by the digital twin simulation system 206. In some of these embodiments, the outcomes of the simulations may be used to supplement training data collected from real-world environments and/or processes. In embodiments, the cognitive processes system 258 leverages machine learned models to make predictions, identifications, classifications and provide decision support relating to the real-world environments and/or processes represented by respective digital twins. [00888] For example, a machine-learned prediction model may be used to predict the cause of irregular vibrational patterns (e.g., a suboptimal, critical, or alarm vibration fault state) for a bearing of an engine in a transportation system. In this example, the cognitive processes system 258 may receive vibration sensor data from one or more vibration sensors disposed on or near the engine and may receive maintenance data from the transportation system and may generate a feature vector based on the vibration sensor data and the maintenance data. The cognitive processes system 258 may input the feature vector into a machine-learned model trained specifically for the engine (e.g., using a combination of simulation data and real-world data of causes of irregular vibration patterns) to predict the cause of the irregular vibration patterns. In this example, the causes of the irregular vibrational patterns could be a loose bearing, a lack of bearing lubrication, a bearing that is out of alignment, a worn bearing, the phase of the bearing may be aligned with the phase of the engine, loose housing, loose bolt, and the like. [00889] In another example, a machine-learned model may be used to provide decision support to bring a bearing of an engine in a transportation system operating at a suboptimal vibration fault level state to a normal operation vibration fault level state. In this example, the cognitive processes system 258 may receive vibration sensor data from one or more vibration sensors disposed on or near the engine and may receive maintenance data from the transportation system and may generate a feature vector based on the vibration sensor data and the maintenance data. The cognitive processes system 258 may input the feature vector into a machine-learned model trained specifically for the engine (e.g., using a combination of simulation data and real-world data of solutions to irregular vibration patterns) to provide decision support in achieving a normal operation fault level state of the bearing. In this example, the decision support could be a recommendation to tighten the bearing, lubricate the bearing, re-align the bearing, order a new bearing, order a new part, collect additional vibration measurements, change operating speed of the engine, tighten housings, tighten bolts, and the like. [00890] In another example, a machine-learned model may be used to provide decision support relating to vibration measurement collection by a worker. In this example, the cognitive processes system 258 may receive vibration measurement history data from the transportation system and may generate a feature vector based on the vibration measurement history data. The cognitive processes system 258 may input the feature vector into a machine-learned model trained specifically for the engine (e.g., using a combination simulation data and real-world vibration measurement history data) to provide decision support in selecting vibration measurement locations. [00891] In yet another example, a machine-learned model may be used to identify vibration signatures associated with machine and/or machine component problems. In this example, the cognitive processes system 258 may receive vibration measurement history data from the transportation system and may generate a feature vector based on the vibration measurement history data. The cognitive processes system 258 may input the feature vector into a machine- learned model trained specifically for the engine (e.g., using a combination simulation data and real-world vibration measurement history data) to identify vibration signatures associated with a machine and/or machine component. The foregoing examples are non-limiting examples and the cognitive processes system 258 may be used for any other suitable AI/machine-learning related tasks that are performed with respect to industrial facilities. [00892] In examples, vibration data can be diagnostic of fault level states of many bearing applications in transportation entities and systems. For example, bearing vibrations can be used to detect nascent faults in axles and transmissions used in automobiles, trucks and trains. In examples, vibration data can be used to detect fault level states of bearings that support propeller shafts, water pumps, and crankshafts of various transportation entities and systems including automobiles, aircraft, ships, and submarines. Vibration data can also be used to detect fault level states of other components of transportation entities or systems including, e.g., jet engine compressor blades, aircraft propellers, ship propellers, and ship propeller shafts. It is to be understood that by analyzing vibration data, it can be possible to identify or classify transportation entities by their vibration signatures. Some tools for analysis include Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) and filters. As such, some transportation entities may be identified or classified by the vibrations, including sounds, that they produce, without the vibration sensor, including microphones, being in direct contact with the transportation entity. In a similar way that certain brands of motorcycles and automobiles may be identified by their exhaust notes, vibration sensors may be used to identify or classify a particular machine. Having selected an appropriate digital twin based on the identity or classification of a particular machine, a better diagnosis can be done on fault level states. Thus, as disclosed herein, sensors may rove in a large transportation system, like a ship, and audit various machines in the transportation system. In some examples, location-based identification of the various machines may be used. In other examples, the methods and systems of the present disclosure can be used to identify or classify the various machines based on their vibration signatures. Further, the methods of the present disclosure can use a stationary set of vibration sensors, for example, to monitor a fleet of vehicles as the vehicles pass by the sensors. The digital twins of the various vehicles may be maintained so that changes in the vibration signatures, detected by sensors mounted to or near the roadbed, can be tracked. Thus, using the methods of the present disclosure, it may be possible to determine by a drive-by test that a particular vehicle in a fleet has, for example, wrist-pin damage that is getting worse without taking the vehicle out of service, and to report that information in a convenient system that uses digital twins. [00893] In embodiments, the environment control system 234 controls one or more aspects of transportation systems 11. In some of these embodiments, the environment control system 234 may control one or more devices within a transportation system. For example, the environment control system 234 may control one or more machines within a transportation system 11, robots within a transportation system 11, an HVAC system of the transportation system 11, an alarm system of the transportation system 11, an assembly line in the transportation system 11, or the like. In embodiments, the environment control system 234 may leverage the digital twin simulation system 206, the digital twin dynamic model system 208, and/or the cognitive processes system 258 to determine one or more control instructions. In embodiments, the environment control system 234 may implement a rules-based and/or a machine-learning approach to determine the control instructions. In response to determining a control instruction, the environment control system 234 may output the control instruction to the intended device within a specific transportation system 11 via the digital twin I/O system 204. [00894] Fig.76 illustrates an example digital twin management system 202 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In embodiments, the digital twin management system 202 may include, but is not limited to, a digital twin creation module 264, a digital twin update module 266, and a digital twin visualization module 268. [00895] In embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may create a set of new digital twins of a set of transportation systems using input from users, imported data (e.g., blueprints, specifications, and the like), image scans of the transportation system, 3D data from a LIDAR device and/or SLAM sensor, and other suitable data sources. For example, a user (e.g., a user affiliated with an organization/customer account) may, via a client application 217, provide input to create a new digital twin of a transportation system. In doing so, the user may upload 2D or 3D image scans of the transportation system and/or a blueprint of the transportation system. The user may also upload 3D data, such as taken by a camera, a LIDAR device, an IR scanner, a set of SLAM sensors, a radar device, an EMF scanner, or the like. In response to the provided data, the digital twin creation module 264 may create a 3D representation of the environment, which may include any objects that were captured in the image data/detected in the 3D data. In embodiments, the cognitive processes system 258 may analyze input data (e.g., blueprints, image scans, 3D data) to classify rooms, pathways, equipment, and the like to assist in the generation of the 3D representation. In some embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may map the digital twin to a 3D coordinate space (e.g., a Cartesian space having x, y, and z axes). [00896] In some embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may output the 3D representation of the transportation system to a graphical user interface (GUI). In some of these embodiments, a user may identify certain areas and/or objects and may provide input relating to the identified areas and/or objects. For example, a user may label specific rooms, equipment, machines, and the like. Additionally or alternatively, the user may provide data relating to the identified objects and/or areas. For example, in identifying a piece of equipment, the user may provide a make/model number of the equipment. In some embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may obtain information from a manufacturer of a device, a piece of equipment, or machinery. This information may include one or more properties and/or behaviors of the device, equipment, or machinery. In some embodiments, the user may, via the GUI, identify locations of sensors throughout the environment. For each sensor, the user may provide a type of sensor and related data (e.g., make, model, IP address, and the like). The digital twin creation module 264 may record the locations (e.g., the x, y, z coordinates of the sensors) in the digital twin of the transportation system. In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may employ one or more systems that automate the population of digital twins. For example, the digital twin system 200 may employ a machine vision-based classifier that classifies makes and models of devices, equipment, or sensors. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin system 200 may iteratively ping different types of known sensors to identify the presence of specific types of sensors that are in an environment. Each time a sensor responds to a ping, the digital twin system 200 may extrapolate the make and model of the sensor. [00897] In some embodiments, the manufacturer may provide or make available digital twins of their products (e.g., sensors, devices, machinery, equipment, raw materials, and the like). In these embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may import the digital twins of one or more products that are identified in the transportation system and may embed those digital twins in the digital twin of the transportation system. In embodiments, embedding a digital twin within another digital twin may include creating a relationship between the embedded digital twin with the other digital twin. In these embodiments, the manufacturer of the digital twin may define the behaviors and/or properties of the respective products. For example, a digital twin of a machine may define the manner by which the machine operates, the inputs/outputs of the machine, and the like. In this way, the digital twin of the machine may reflect the operation of the machine given a set of inputs. [00898] In embodiments, a user may define one or more processes that occur in an environment. In these embodiments, the user may define the steps in the process, the machines/devices that perform each step in the process, the inputs to the process, and the outputs of the process. [00899] In embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may create a graph database that defines the relationships between a set of digital twins. In these embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may create nodes for the environment, systems and subsystems of the transportation system, devices in the environment, sensors in the environment, workers that work in the environment, processes that are performed in the environment, and the like. In embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may write the graph database representing a set of digital twins to the digital twin datastore 269. [00900] In embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may, for each node, include any data relating to the entity in the node representing the entity. For example, in defining a node representing an environment, the digital twin creation module 264 may include the dimensions, boundaries, layout, pathways, and other relevant spatial data in the node. Furthermore, the digital twin creation module 264 may define a coordinate space with respect to the environment. In the case that the digital twin may be rendered, the digital twin creation module 264 may include a reference in the node to any shapes, meshes, splines, surfaces, and the like that may be used to render the environment. In representing a system, subsystem, device, or sensor, the digital twin creation module 264 may create a node for the respective entity and may include any relevant data. For example, the digital twin creation module 264 may create a node representing a machine in the environment. In this example, the digital twin creation module 264 may include the dimensions, behaviors, properties, location, and/or any other suitable data relating to the machine in the node representing the machine. The digital twin creation module 264 may connect nodes of related entities with an edge, thereby creating a relationship between the entities. In doing so, the created relationship between the entities may define the type of relationship characterized by the edge. In representing a process, the digital twin creation module 264 may create a node for the entire process or may create a node for each step in the process. In some of these embodiments, the digital twin creation module 264 may relate the process nodes to the nodes that represent the machinery/devices that perform the steps in the process. In embodiments where an edge connects the process step nodes to the machinery/device that performs the process step, the edge or one of the nodes may contain information that indicates the input to the step, the output of the step, the amount of time the step takes, the nature of processing of inputs to produce outputs, a set of states or modes the process can undergo, and the like. [00901] In embodiments, the digital twin update module 266 updates sets of digital twins based on a current status of one or more transportation entities. In some embodiments, the digital twin update module 266 receives sensor data from a sensor system 25 of a transportation system and updates the status of the digital twin of the transportation system and/or digital twins of any affected systems, subsystems, devices, workers, processes, or the like. As discussed, the digital twin I/O system 204 may receive the sensor data in one or more sensor packets. The digital twin I/O system 204 may provide the sensor data to the digital twin update module 266 and may identify the environment from which the sensor packets were received and the sensor that provided the sensor packet. In response to the sensor data, the digital twin update module 266 may update a state of one or more digital twins based on the sensor data. In some of these embodiments, the digital twin update module 266 may update a record (e.g., a node in a graph database) corresponding to the sensor that provided the sensor data to reflect the current sensor data. In some scenarios, the digital twin update module 266 may identify certain areas within the environment that are monitored by the sensor and may update a record (e.g., a node in a graph database) to reflect the current sensor data. For example, the digital twin update module 266 may receive sensor data reflecting different vibrational characteristics of a machine and/or machine components. In this example, the digital twin update module 266 may update the records representing the vibration sensors that provided the vibration sensor data and/or the records representing the machine and/or the machine components to reflect the vibration sensor data. In another example, in some scenarios, workers (e.g., drivers, pilots, ship’s crew, aircraft crew, maintenance workers), in a transportation system (e.g., air-traffic control facility, airport, railyard, truck depot, bridge, road, railroad, tunnel, or the like) may be required to wear wearable devices (e.g., smart watches, smart helmets, smart shoes, or the like). In these embodiments, the wearable devices may collect sensor data relating to the worker (e.g., location, movement, heartrate, respiration rate, body temperature, or the like) and/or the ambient environment surrounding the worker and may communicate the collected sensor data to the digital twin system 200 (e.g., via the real-time sensor API 214) either directly or via an aggregation device of the sensor system. In response to receiving the sensor data from the wearable device of a worker, the digital twin update module 266 may update a digital twin of a worker to reflect, for example, a location of the worker, a trajectory of the worker, a health status of the worker, or the like. In some of these embodiments, the digital twin update module 266 may update a node representing a worker and/or an edge that connects the node representing the transportation system with the collected sensor data to reflect the current status of the worker. [00902] In some embodiments, the digital twin update module 266 may provide the sensor data from one or more sensors to the digital twin dynamic model system 208, which may model a behavior of the transportation system and/or one or more transportation entities to extrapolate additional state data. [00903] In embodiments, the digital twin visualization module 268 receives requests to view a visual digital twin or a portion thereof. In embodiments, the request may indicate the digital twin to be viewed (e.g., a transportation system identifier). In response, the digital twin visualization module 268 may determine the requested digital twin and any other digital twins implicated by the request. For example, in requesting to view a digital twin of a transportation system, the digital twin visualization module 268 may further identify the digital twins of any transportation entities within the transportation system. In embodiments, the digital twin visualization module 268 may identify the spatial relationships between the transportation entities and the environment based on, for example, the relationships defined in a graph database. In these embodiments, the digital twin visualization module 268 can determine the relative location of embedded digital twins within the containing digital twin, relative locations of adjoining digital twins, and/or the transience of the relationship (e.g., is an object fixed to a point or does the object move). The digital twin visualization module 268 may render the requested digital twins and any other implicated digital twin based on the identified relationships. In some embodiments, the digital twin visualization module 268 may, for each digital twin, determine the surfaces of the digital twin. In some embodiments, the surfaces of a digital may be defined or referenced in a record corresponding to the digital twin, which may be provided by a user, determined from imported images, or defined by a manufacturer of a transportation entity. In the scenario that an object can take different poses or shapes (e.g., a robot), the digital twin visualization module 268 may determine a pose or shape of the object for the digital twin. The digital twin visualization module 268 may embed the digital twins into the requested digital twin and may output the requested digital twin to a client application. [00904] In some of these embodiments, the request to view a digital twin may further indicate the type of view. As discussed, in some embodiments, digital twins may be depicted in a number of different view types. For example, a transportation system or device may be viewed in a “real- world” view that depicts the transportation system or device as they typically appear, in a “heat” view that depicts the transportation system or device in a manner that is indicative of a temperature of the transportation system or device, in a “vibration” view that depicts the machines and/or machine components in a transportation system in a manner that is indicative of vibrational characteristics of the machines and/or machine components, in a “filtered” view that only displays certain types of objects within a transportation system or components of a device (such as objects that require attention resulting from, for example, recognition of a fault condition, an alert, an updated report, or other factors), an augmented view that overlays data on the digital twin, and/or any other suitable view types. In embodiments, digital twins may be depicted in a number of different role-based view types. For example, a manufacturing facility device may be viewed in an “operator” view that depicts the facility in a manner that is suitable for a facility operator, a “C-Suite” view that depicts the facility in a manner that is suitable for executive-level managers, a “marketing” view that depicts the facility in a manner that is suitable for workers in sales and/or marketing roles, a “board” view that depicts the facility in a manner that is suitable for members of a corporate board, a “regulatory” view that depicts the facility in a manner that is suitable for regulatory managers, and a “human resources” view that depicts the facility in a manner that is suitable for human resources personnel. In response to a request that indicates a view type, the digital twin visualization module 268 may retrieve the data for each digital twin that corresponds to the view type. For example, if a user has requested a vibration view of a transportation system, the digital twin visualization module 268 may retrieve vibration data for the transportation system (which may include vibration measurements taken from different machines and/or machine components and/or vibration measurements that were extrapolated by the digital twin dynamic model system 208 and/or simulated vibration data from digital twin simulation system 206) as well as available vibration data for any transportation entities appearing in the transportation system. In this example, the digital twin visualization module 268 may determine colors corresponding to each machine component in a transportation system that represent a vibration fault level state (e.g., red for alarm, orange for critical, yellow for suboptimal, and green for normal operation). The digital twin visualization module 268 may then render the digital twins of the machine components within the transportation system based on the determined colors. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin visualization module 268 may render the digital twins of the machine components within the transportation system with indicators having the determined colors. For instance, if the vibration fault level state of an inbound bearing of a motor is suboptimal and the outbound bearing of the motor is critical, the digital twin visualization module 268 may render the digital twin of the inbound bearing having an indicator in a shade of yellow (e.g., suboptimal) and the outbound bearing having an indicator in a shade of orange (e.g., critical). It is noted that in some embodiments, the digital twin simulation system 200 may include an analytics system (not shown) that determines the manner by which the digital twin visualization module 268 presents information to a human user. For example, the analytics system may track outcomes relating to human interactions with real-world transportation systems or objects in response to information presented in a visual digital twin. In some embodiments, the analytics system may apply cognitive models to determine the most effective manner to display visualized information (e.g., what colors to use to denote an alarm condition, what kind of movements or animations bring attention to an alarm condition, or the like) or audio information (what sounds to use to denote an alarm condition) based on the outcome data. In some embodiments, the analytics system may apply cognitive models to determine the most suitable manner to display visualized information based on the role of the user. In embodiments, the visualization may include display of information related to the visualized digital twins, including graphical information, graphical information depicting vibration characteristics, graphical information depicting harmonic peaks, graphical information depicting peaks, vibration severity units data, vibration fault level state data, recommendations from cognitive intelligence system 258, predictions from cognitive intelligence system 258, probability of failure data, maintenance history data, time to failure data, cost of downtime data, probability of downtime data, cost of repair data, cost of machine replace data, probability of shutdown data, KPIs, and the like. [00905] In another example, a user may request a filtered view of a digital twin of a process, whereby the digital twin of the process only shows components (e.g., machine or equipment) that are involved in the process. In this example, the digital twin visualization module 268 may retrieve a digital twin of the process, as well as any related digital twins (e.g., a digital twin of the transportation system and digital twins of any machinery or devices that affect the process). The digital twin visualization module 268 may then render each of the digital twins (e.g., the transportation system and the relevant transportation entities) and then may perform the process on the rendered digital twins. It is noted that as a process may be performed over a period of time and may include moving items and/or parts, the digital twin visualization module 268 may generate a series of sequential frames that demonstrate the process. In this scenario, the movements of the machines and/or devices implicated by the process may be determined according to the behaviors defined in the respective digital twins of the machines and/or devices. [00906] As discussed, the digital twin visualization module 268 may output the requested digital twin to a client application 217. In some embodiments, the client application 217 is a virtual reality application, whereby the requested digital twin is displayed on a virtual reality headset. In some embodiments, the client application 217 is an augmented reality application, whereby the requested digital twin is depicted in an AR-enabled device. In these embodiments, the requested digital twin may be filtered such that visual elements and/or text are overlaid on the display of the AR-enabled device. [00907] It is noted that while a graph database is discussed, the digital twin system 200 may employ other suitable data structures to store information relating to a set of digital twins. In these embodiments, the data structures, and any related storage system, may be implemented such that the data structures provide for some degree of feedback loops and/or recursion when representing iteration of flows. [00908] Fig.77 illustrates an example of a digital twin I/O system 204 that interfaces with the transportation system 11, the digital twin system 200, and/or components thereof to provide bi- directional transfer of data between coupled components according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. [00909] In embodiments, the transferred data includes signals (e.g., request signals, command signals, response signals, etc.) between connected components, which may include software components, hardware components, physical devices, virtualized devices, simulated devices, combinations thereof, and the like. The signals may define material properties (e.g., physical quantities of temperature, pressure, humidity, density, viscosity, etc.), measured values (e.g., contemporaneous or stored values acquired by the device or system), device properties (e.g., device ID or properties of the device’s design specifications, materials, measurement capabilities, dimensions, absolute position, relative position, combinations thereof, and the like), set points (e.g., targets for material properties, device properties, system properties, combinations thereof, and the like), and/or critical points (e.g., threshold values such as minimum or maximum values for material properties, device properties, system properties, etc.). The signals may be received from systems or devices that acquire (e.g., directly measure or generate) or otherwise obtain (e.g., receive, calculate, look-up, filter, etc.) the data, and may be communicated to or from the digital twin I/O system 204 at predetermined times or in response to a request (e.g., polling) from the digital twin I/O system 204. The communications may occur through direct or indirect connections (e.g., via intermediate modules within a circuit and/or intermediate devices between the connected components). The values may correspond to real-world elements 2R (e.g., an input or output for a tangible vibration sensor) or virtual elements 2V (e.g., an input or output for a digital twin 2DT and/or a simulated element 2S that provide vibration data). [00910] In embodiments, the real-world elements 2R may be elements within the transportation system 11. The real-world elements 2R may include, for example, non-networked elements 222, the devices 265 (smart or non-smart), sensors 227, and humans 229. The real-world elements 2R may be process or non-process equipment within the transportation systems 11. For example, process equipment may include motors, pumps, mills, fans, painters, welders, smelters, etc., and non-process equipment may include personal protective equipment, safety equipment, emergency stations or devices (e.g., safety showers, eyewash stations, fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, etc.), warehouse features (e.g., walls, floor layout, etc.), obstacles (e.g., persons or other items within the transportation system 11, etc.), etc. [00911] In embodiments, the virtual elements 2V may be digital representations of or that correspond to contemporaneously existing real-world elements 2R. Additionally or alternatively, the virtual elements 2V may be digital representations of or that correspond to real-world elements 2R that may be available for later addition and implementation into the transportation system 11. The virtual elements may include, for example, simulated elements 2S and/or digital twins 2DT. In embodiments, the simulated elements 2S may be digital representations of real- world elements 2S that are not present within the transportation system 11. The simulated elements 2S may mimic desired physical properties which may be later integrated within the transportation system 11 as real-world elements 2R (e.g., a “black box” that mimics the dimensions of real-world elements 2R). The simulated elements 2S may include digital twins of existing objects (e.g., a single simulated element 2S may include one or more digital twins 2DT for existing sensors). Information related to the simulated elements 2S may be obtained, for example, by evaluating behavior of corresponding real-world elements 2R using mathematical models or algorithms, from libraries that define information and behavior of the simulated elements 2S (e.g., physics libraries, chemistry libraries, or the like). [00912] In embodiments, the digital twin 2DT may be a digital representation of one or more real-world elements 2R. The digital twins 2DT are configured to mimic, copy, and/or model behaviors and responses of the real-world elements 2R in response to inputs, outputs, and/or conditions of the surrounding or ambient environment. Data related to physical properties and responses of the real-world elements 2R may be obtained, for example, via user input, sensor input, and/or physical modeling (e.g., thermodynamic models, electrodynamic models, mechanodynamic models, etc.). Information for the digital twin 2DT may correspond to and be obtained from the one or more real-world elements 2R corresponding to the digital twin 2DT. For example, in some embodiments, the digital twin 2DT may correspond to one real-world element 2R that is a fixed digital vibration sensor 235 on a machine component, and vibration data for the digital twin 2DT may be obtained by polling or fetching vibration data measured by the fixed digital vibration sensor on the machine component. In a further example, the digital twin 2DT may correspond to a plurality of real-world elements 2R such that each of the elements can be a fixed digital vibration sensor on a machine component, and vibration data for the digital twin 2DT may be obtained by polling or fetching vibration data measured by each of the fixed digital vibration sensors on the plurality of real-world elements 2R. Additionally or alternatively, vibration data of a first digital twin 2DT may be obtained by fetching vibration data of a second digital twin 2DT that is embedded within the first digital twin 2DT, and vibration data for the first digital twin 2DT may include or be derived from vibration data for the second digital twin 2DT. For example, the first digital twin may be a digital twin 2DT of a transportation system 11 (alternatively referred to as a “transportation system digital twin”) and the second digital twin 2DT may be a digital twin 2DT corresponding to a vibration sensor disposed within the transportation system 11 such that the vibration data for the first digital twin 2DT is obtained from or calculated based on data including the vibration data for the second digital twin 2DT. [00913] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 monitors properties of the real-world elements 2R using the sensors 227 within a respective transportation system 11 that is or may be represented by a digital twin 2DT and/or outputs of models for one or more simulated elements 2S. In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may minimize network congestion while maintaining effective monitoring of processes by extending polling intervals and/or minimizing data transfer for sensors corresponding that correspond to affected real-world elements 2R and performing simulations (e.g., via the digital-twin simulation system 106) during the extended interval using data that was obtained from other sources (e.g., sensors that are physically proximate to or have an effect on the affected real-world elements 2R). Additionally or alternatively, error checking may be performed by comparing the collected sensor data with data obtained from the digital-twin simulation system 106. For example, consistent deviations or fluctuations between sensor data obtained from the real-world element 2R and the simulated element 2S may indicate malfunction of the respective sensor or another fault condition. [00914] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may optimize features of the transportation system through use of one or more simulated elements 2S. For example, the digital twin system 200 may evaluate effects of the simulated elements 2S within a digital twin of a transportation system to quickly and efficiently determine costs and/or benefits flowing from inclusion, exclusion, or substitution of real-world elements 2R within the transportation system 11. The costs and benefits may include, for example, increased machinery costs (e.g., capital investment and maintenance), increased efficiency (e.g., process optimization to reduce waste or increase throughput), decreased or altered footprint within the transportation system 11, extension or optimization of useful lifespans, minimization of component faults, minimization of component downtime, etc. [00915] In embodiments, the digital twin I/O system 204 may include one or more software modules that are executed by one or more controllers of one or more devices (e.g., server devices, user devices, and/or distributed devices) to affect the described functions. The digital twin I/O system 204 may include, for example, an input module 263, an output module 273, and an adapter module 283. [00916] In embodiments, the input module 263 may obtain or import data from data sources in communication with the digital twin I/O system 204, such as the sensor system 25 and the digital twin simulation system 206. The data may be immediately used by or stored within the digital twin system 200. The imported data may be ingested from data streams, data batches, in response to a triggering event, combinations thereof, and the like. The input module 263 may receive data in a format that is suitable to transfer, read, and/or write information within the digital twin system 200. [00917] In embodiments, the output module 273 may output or export data to other system components (e.g., the digital twin datastore 269, the digital twin simulation system 206, the cognitive intelligence system 258, etc.), devices 265, and/or the client application 217. The data may be output in data streams, data batches, in response to a triggering event (e.g., a request), combinations thereof, and the like. The output module 273 may output data in a format that is suitable to be used or stored by the target element (e.g., one protocol for output to the client application and another protocol for the digital twin datastore 269). [00918] In embodiments, the adapter module 283 may process and/or convert data between the input module 263 and the output module 273. In embodiments, the adapter module 283 may convert and/or route data automatically (e.g., based on data type) or in response to a received request (e.g., in response to information within the data). [00919] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may represent a set of workpiece elements in a digital twin, and the digital twin simulation system 206 simulates a set of physical interactions of a worker with the workpiece elements. For example, the worker may be a crewmember of a transportation system that is a cruise ship, and the workpiece may be a dinner plate that needs to be cleaned and stowed. [00920] In embodiments, the digital twin simulation system 206 may determine process outcomes for the simulated physical interactions accounting for simulated human factors. For example, variations in workpiece throughput may be modeled by the digital twin system 200 including, for example, worker response times to events, worker fatigue, discontinuity within worker actions (e.g., natural variations in human-movement speed, differing positioning times, etc.), effects of discontinuities on downstream processes, and the like. In embodiments, individualized worker interactions may be modeled using historical data that is collected, acquired, and/or stored by the digital twin system 200. The simulation may begin based on estimated amounts (e.g., worker age, industry averages, workplace expectations, etc.). The simulation may also individualize data for each worker (e.g., comparing estimated amounts to collected worker-specific outcomes). [00921] In embodiments, information relating to workers (e.g., fatigue rates, efficiency rates, and the like) may be determined by analyzing performance of specific workers over time and modeling said performance. [00922] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 includes a plurality of proximity sensors within the sensor array 25. The proximity sensors are or may be configured to detect elements of the transportation system 11 that are within a predetermined area. For example, proximity sensors may include electromagnetic sensors, light sensors, and/or acoustic sensors. [00923] The electromagnetic sensors are or may be configured to sense objects or interactions via one or more electromagnetic fields (e.g., emitted electromagnetic radiation or received electromagnetic radiation). In embodiments, the electromagnetic sensors include inductive sensors (e.g., radio-frequency identification sensors), capacitive sensors (e.g., contact and contactless capacitive sensors), combinations thereof, and the like. [00924] The light sensors are or may be configured to sense objects or interactions via electromagnetic radiation in, for example, the far-infrared, near-infrared, optical, and/or ultraviolet spectra. In embodiments, the light sensors may include image sensors (e.g., charge- coupled devices and CMOS active-pixel sensors), photoelectric sensors (e.g., through-beam sensors, retroreflective sensors, and diffuse sensors), combinations thereof, and the like. Further, the light sensors may be implemented as part of a system or subsystem, such as a light detection and ranging (“LIDAR”) sensor. [00925] The acoustic sensors are or may be configured to sense objects or interactions via sound waves that are emitted and/or received by the acoustic sensors. In embodiments, the acoustic sensors may include infrasonic, sonic, and/or ultrasonic sensors. Further, the acoustic sensors may be grouped as part of a system or subsystem, such as a sound navigation and ranging (“SONAR”) sensor. [00926] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 stores and collects data from a set of proximity sensors within the transportation system 11 or portions thereof. The collected data may be stored, for example, in the digital twin datastore 269 for use by components the digital twin system 200 and/or visualization by a user. Such use and/or visualization may occur contemporaneously with or after collection of the data (e.g., during later analysis and/or optimization of processes). [00927] In embodiments, data collection may occur in response to a triggering condition. These triggering conditions may include, for example, expiration of a static or a dynamic predetermined interval, obtaining a value short of or in excess of a static or dynamic value, receiving an automatically generated request or instruction from the digital twin system 200 or components thereof, interaction of an element with the respective sensor or sensors (e.g., in response to a worker or machine breaking a beam or coming within a predetermined distance from the proximity sensor), interaction of a user with a digital twin (e.g., selection of a transportation system digital twin, a sensor array digital twin, or a sensor digital twin), combinations thereof, and the like. [00928] In some embodiments, the digital twin system 200 collects and/or stores RFID data in response to interaction of a worker with a real-world element 2R. For example, in response to a worker interaction with a real-world environment, the digital twin will collect and/or store RFID data from RFID sensors within or associated with the corresponding transportation system 11. Additionally or alternatively, worker interaction with a sensor-array digital twin will collect and/or store RFID data from RFID sensors within or associated with the corresponding sensor array. Similarly, worker interaction with a sensor digital twin will collect and/or store RFID data from the corresponding sensor. The RFID data may include suitable data attainable by RFID sensors such as proximate RFID tags, RFID tag position, authorized RFID tags, unauthorized RFID tags, unrecognized RFID tags, RFID type (e.g., active or passive), error codes, combinations thereof, and the like. [00929] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may further embed outputs from one or more devices within a corresponding digital twin. In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 embeds output from a set of individual-associated devices into a transportation system digital twin. For example, the digital twin I/O system 204 may receive information output from one or more wearable devices 257 or mobile devices (not shown) associated with an individual within a transportation system. The wearable devices may include image capture devices (e.g., body cameras or augmented-reality headwear), navigation devices (e.g., GPS devices, inertial guidance systems), motion trackers, acoustic capture devices (e.g., microphones), radiation detectors, combinations thereof, and the like. [00930] In embodiments, upon receiving the output information, the digital twin I/O system 204 routes the information to the digital twin creation module 264 to check and/or update the transportation system digital twin and/or associated digital twins within the environment (e.g., a digital twin of a worker, machine, or robot position at a given time). Further, the digital twin system 200 may use the embedded output to determine characteristics of the transportation system 11. [00931] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 embeds output from a LIDAR point cloud system into a transportation system digital twin. For example, the digital twin I/O system 204 may receive information output from one or more Lidar devices 238 within a transportation system. The Lidar devices 238 is configured to provide a plurality of points having associated position data (e.g., coordinates in absolute or relative x, y, and z values). Each of the plurality of points may include further LIDAR attributes, such as intensity, return number, total returns, laser color data, return color data, scan angle, scan direction, etc. The Lidar devices 238 may provide a point cloud that includes the plurality of points to the digital twin system 200 via, for example, the digital twin I/O system 204. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin system 200 may receive a stream of points and assemble the stream into a point cloud, or may receive a point cloud and assemble the received point cloud with existing point cloud data, map data, or three dimensional (3D)-model data. [00932] In embodiments, upon receiving the output information, the digital twin I/O system 204 routes the point cloud information to the digital twin creation module 264 to check and/or update the environment digital twin and/or associated digital twins within the environment (e.g., a digital twin of a worker, machine, or robot position at a given time). In some embodiments, the digital twin system 200 is further configured to determine closed-shape objects within the received LIDAR data. For example, the digital twin system 200 may group a plurality of points within the point cloud as an object and, if necessary, estimate obstructed faces of objects (e.g., a face of the object contacting or adjacent a floor or a face of the object contacting or adjacent another object such as another piece of equipment). The system may use such closed-shape objects to narrow search space for digital twins and thereby increase efficiency of matching algorithms (e.g., a shape-matching algorithm). [00933] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 embeds output from a simultaneous location and mapping (“SLAM”) system in an environmental digital twin. For example, the digital twin I/O system 204 may receive information output from the SLAM system, such as Slam sensor 293, and embed the received information within an environment digital twin corresponding to the location determined by the SLAM system. In embodiments, upon receiving the output information from the SLAM system, the digital twin I/O system 204 routes the information to the digital twin creation module 264 to check and/or update the environment digital twin and/or associated digital twins within the environment (e.g., a digital twin of a workpiece, furniture, movable object, or autonomous object). Such updating provides digital twins of non-connected elements (e.g., furnishings or persons) automatically and without need of user interaction with the digital twin system 200. [00934] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 can leverage known digital twins to reduce computational requirements for the SLAM sensor 293 by using suboptimal map-building algorithms. For example, the suboptimal map-building algorithms may allow for a higher uncertainty tolerance using simple bounded-region representations and identifying possible digital twins. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin system 200 may use a bounded-region representation to limit the number of digital twins, analyze the group of potential twins for distinguishing features, then perform higher precision analysis for the distinguishing features to identify and/or eliminate categories of, groups of, or individual digital twins and, in the event that no matching digital twin is found, perform a precision scan of only the remaining areas to be scanned. [00935] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may further reduce compute required to build a location map by leveraging data captured from other sensors within the environment (e.g., captured images or video, radio images, etc.) to perform an initial map-building process (e.g., a simple bounded-region map or other suitable photogrammetry methods), associate digital twins of known environmental objects with features of the simple bounded-region map to refine the simple bounded-region map, and perform more precise scans of the remaining simple bounded regions to further refine the map. In some embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may detect objects within received mapping information and, for each detected object, determine whether the detected object corresponds to an existing digital twin of a real-world-element. In response to determining that the detected object does not correspond to an existing real-world-element digital twin, the digital twin system 200 may use, for example, the digital twin creation module 264 to generate a new digital twin corresponding to the detected object (e.g., a detected-object digital twin) and add the detected-object digital twin to the real-world-element digital twins within the digital twin datastore. Additionally or alternatively, in response to determining that the detected object corresponds to an existing real-world-element digital twin, the digital twin system 200 may update the real-world-element digital twin to include new information detected by the simultaneous location and mapping sensor, if any. [00936] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 represents locations of autonomously or remotely moveable elements and attributes thereof within a transportation system digital twin. Such movable elements may include, for example, workers, persons, vehicles, autonomous vehicles, robots, etc. The locations of the moveable elements may be updated in response to a triggering condition. Such triggering conditions may include, for example, expiration of a static or a dynamic predetermined interval, receiving an automatically generated request or instruction from the digital twin system 200 or components thereof, interaction of an element with a respective sensor or sensors (e.g., in response to a worker or machine breaking a beam or coming within a predetermined distance from a proximity sensor), interaction of a user with a digital twin (e.g., selection of an environmental digital twin, a sensor array digital twin, or a sensor digital twin), combinations thereof, and the like. [00937] In embodiments, the time intervals may be based on probability of the respective movable element having moved within a time period. For example, the time interval for updating a worker location may be relatively shorter for workers expected to move frequently (e.g., a worker tasked with lifting and carrying objects within and through the transportation system 11) and relatively longer for workers expected to move infrequently (e.g., a worker tasked with monitoring a process stream). Additionally or alternatively, the time interval may be dynamically adjusted based on applicable conditions, such as increasing the time interval when no movable elements are detected, decreasing the time interval as or when the number of moveable elements within an environment increases (e.g., increasing number of workers and worker interactions), increasing the time interval during periods of reduced environmental activity (e.g., breaks such as lunch), decreasing the time interval during periods of abnormal environmental activity (e.g., tours, inspections, or maintenance), decreasing the time interval when unexpected or uncharacteristic movement is detected (e.g., frequent movement by a typically sedentary element or coordinated movement, for example, of workers approaching an exit or moving cooperatively to carry a large object), combinations thereof, and the like. Further, the time interval may also include additional, semi-random acquisitions. For example, occasional mid-interval locations may be acquired by the digital twin system 200 to reinforce or evaluate the efficacy of the particular time interval. [00938] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may analyze data received from the digital twin I/O system 204 to refine, remove, or add conditions. For example, the digital twin system 200 may optimize data collection times for movable elements that are updated more frequently than needed (e.g., multiple consecutive received positions being identical or within a predetermined margin of error). [00939] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may receive, identify, and/or store a set of states 116A-116N (i.e., 116A, 116B, 116C…116N) where A,B,C…N indicates a set of indexes that is unique to the identified state. For example, the set of indexes may be the positive integers. Thus, the quantity of indexes in the set of indexes is not necessarily limited to the quantity of letters in an alphabet. Each index in the set of indexes may be used, for example, to indicate an association between a state 116N and a set of identifying criteria 5N having the same index (N in the example of this sentence). In the example depicted in Fig.78, the set of identified states 116A-116N is related to the transportation system 11. The states 116A-116N may be, for example, data structures that include a plurality of attributes 4A-4N. In this case, the index A-N associated with the attribute may not necessarily be associated with a particular state 116A-116N. When written herein with reference numeral 4, e.g., 4A, the indexes A-N indicate a unique attribute. For example, 4A may be a reference sign for “power input,” 4B may be a reference sign for “operational speed,” 4C may be a reference sign for “critical speed,” and 4D may be a reference sign for “operating temperature.” [00940] Further, the states 116A-116N may be, for example, data structures that include a set of identifying criteria 5A-5N to uniquely identify each respective state 116A-116N. In embodiments, the states 116A-116N may correspond to states where it is desirable for the digital twin system 200 to set or alter conditions of real-world elements 2R and/or the transportation system 11 (e.g., increase/decrease monitoring intervals, alter operating conditions, etc.). [00941] In embodiments, the set of states 116A-116N may further include, for example, minimum monitored attributes for each state 116A-116N, the set of identifying criteria 5A-5N for each state 116A-116N, and/or actions available to be taken or recommended to be taken in response to each state 116A-116N. Such information may be stored by, for example, the digital twin datastore 269 or another datastore. The states 116A-116N or portions thereof may be provided to, determined by, or altered by the digital twin system 200. Further, the set of states 116A-116N may include data from disparate sources. For example, details to identify and/or respond to occurrence of a first state may be provided to the digital twin system 200 via user input, details to identify and/or respond to occurrence of a second state may be provided to the digital twin system 200 via an external system, details to identify and/or respond to occurrence of a third state may be determined by the digital twin system 200 (e.g., via simulations or analysis of process data), and details to identify and/or respond to occurrence of a fourth state may be stored by the digital twin system 200 and altered as desired (e.g., in response to simulated occurrence of the state or analysis of data collected during an occurrence of and response to the state). [00942] In embodiments, the plurality of attributes 4A-4N includes at least the attributes 4A-4N needed to identify the respective state 116A-116N. The plurality of attributes 4A-4N may further include additional attributes that are or may be monitored in determining the respective state 116A-116N, but are not needed to identify the respective state 116A-116N. For example, the plurality of attributes 4A-4N for a first state may include relevant information such as rotational speed, fuel level, energy input, linear speed, acceleration, temperature, strain, torque, volume, weight, etc. [00943] The set of identifying criteria 5A-5N may include information for each of the set of attributes 4A-4N to uniquely identify the respective state. The identifying criteria 5A-5N may include, for example, rules, thresholds, limits, ranges, logical values, conditions, comparisons, combinations thereof, and the like. [00944] The change in operating conditions or monitoring may be any suitable change. For example, after identifying occurrence of a respective state 116A-116N, the digital twin system 200 may increase or decrease monitoring intervals for a device (e.g., decreasing monitoring intervals in response to a measured parameter differing from nominal operation) without altering operation of the device. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin system 200 may alter operation of the device (e.g., reduce speed or power input) without altering monitoring of the device. In further embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may alter operation of the device (e.g., reduce speed or power input) and alter monitoring intervals for the device (e.g., decreasing monitoring intervals). [00945] Fig.78 illustrates an example set of identified states 116A-116N related to transportation systems that the digital twin system 200 may identify and/or store for access by intelligent systems (e.g., the cognitive intelligence system 258) or users of the digital twin system 200, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The states 116A-116N may include operational states (e.g., suboptimal, normal, optimal, critical, or alarm operation of one or more components), excess or shortage states (e.g., supply-side or output-side quantities), combinations thereof, and the like. [00946] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may monitor attributes 4A-4N of real- world elements 2R and/or digital twins 2DT to determine the respective state 116A-116N. The attributes 4A-4N may be, for example, operating conditions, set points, critical points, status indicators, other sensed information, combinations thereof, and the like. For example, the attributes 4A-4N may include power input 4A, operational speed 4B, critical speed 4C, and operational temperature 4D of the monitored elements. While the illustrated example illustrates uniform monitored attributes, the monitored attributes may differ by target device (e.g., the digital twin system 200 would not monitor rotational speed for an object with no rotatable components). [00947] Each of the states 116A-116N includes a set of identifying criteria 5A-5N meeting particular criteria that are unique among the group of monitored states 116A-116N. Referring to Fig.78, the digital twin system 200 may identify the overspeed state 116A, for example, in response to the monitored attributes 4A-4N meeting a first set of identifying criteria 5A (e.g., operational speed 4B being higher than the critical speed 4C, while the operational temperature 4D is nominal). [00948] The digital twin system 200 may identify the power loss state 116B, for example, in response to the monitored attributes 4A-4N meeting a second set of identifying criteria 5B (e.g., operational speed 4B requiring more than expected power input 4C). [00949] The digital twin system 200 may identify the high-temperature overspeed state 116C, for example, in response to the monitored attributes 4A-4N meeting a third set of identifying criteria 5C (e.g., operational speed 4B being higher than the critical speed 4C, while the operational temperature 4D is above a predetermined limit). [00950] In response to determining that one or more states 116A-116N exists or has occurred, the digital twin system 200 may update triggering conditions for one or more monitoring protocols, issue an alert or notification, or trigger actions of subcomponents of the digital twin system 200. For example, subcomponents of the digital twin system 200 may take actions to mitigate and/or evaluate impacts of the detected states 116A-116N. When attempting to take actions to mitigate impacts of the detected states 116A-116N on real-world elements 2R, the digital twin system 200 may determine whether instructions exist (e.g., are stored in the digital twin datastore 269) or should be developed (e.g., developed via simulation and cognitive intelligence or via user or worker input). Further, the digital twin system 200 may evaluate impacts of the detected states 116A-116N, for example, concurrently with the mitigation actions or in response to determining that the digital twin system 200 has no stored mitigation instructions for the detected states 116A-116N. [00951] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 employs the digital twin simulation system 206 to simulate one or more impacts, such as immediate, upstream, downstream, and/or continuing effects, of recognized states. The digital twin simulation system 206 may collect and/or be provided with values relevant to the evaluated states 116A-116N. In simulating the effect of the one or more states 116A-116N, the digital twin simulation system 206 may recursively evaluate performance characteristics of affected digital twins 2DT until convergence is achieved. The digital twin simulation system 206 may work, for example, in tandem with the cognitive intelligence system 258 to determine response actions to alleviate, mitigate, inhibit, and/or prevent occurrence of the one or more states 116A-116N. For example, the digital twin simulation system 206 may recursively simulate impacts of the one or more states 116A-116N until achieving a desired fit (e.g., convergence is achieved), provide the simulated values to the cognitive intelligence system 258 for evaluation and determination of potential actions, receive the potential actions, evaluate impacts of each of the potential actions for a respective desired fit (e.g., cost functions for minimizing production disturbance, preserving critical components, minimizing maintenance and/or downtime, optimizing system, worker, user, or personal safety, etc.). [00952] In embodiments, the digital twin simulation system 206 and the cognitive intelligence system 258 may repeatedly share and update the simulated values and response actions for each desired outcome until desired conditions are met (e.g., convergence for each evaluated cost function for each evaluated action). The digital twin system 200 may store the results in the digital twin datastore 269 for use in response to determining that one or more states 116A-116N has occurred. Additionally, simulations and evaluations by the digital twin simulation system 206 and/or the cognitive intelligence system 258 may occur in response to occurrence or detection of the event. [00953] In embodiments, simulations and evaluations are triggered only when associated actions are not present within the digital twin system 200. In further embodiments, simulations and evaluations are performed concurrently with use of stored actions to evaluate the efficacy or effectiveness of the actions in real time and/or evaluate whether further actions should be employed or whether unrecognized states may have occurred. In embodiments, the cognitive intelligence system 258 may also be provided with notifications of instances of undesired actions with or without data on the undesired aspects or results of such actions to optimize later evaluations. [00954] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 evaluates and/or represents the effect of machine downtime within a digital twin of a manufacturing facility. For example, the digital twin system 200 may employ the digital twin simulation system 206 to simulate the immediate, upstream, downstream, and/or continuing effects of a machine downtime state 116D. The digital twin simulation system 206 may collect or be provided with performance-related values such as optimal, suboptimal, and minimum performance requirements for elements (e.g., real-world elements 2R and/or nested digital twins 2DT) within the affected digital twins 2DT, and/or characteristics thereof that are available to the affected digital twins 2DT, nested digital twins 2DT, redundant systems within the affected digital twins 2DT, combinations thereof, and the like. [00955] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 is configured to: simulate one or more operating parameters for the real-world elements in response to the transportation system being supplied with given characteristics using the real-world-element digital twins; calculate a mitigating action to be taken by one or more of the real-world elements in response to being supplied with the contemporaneous characteristics; and actuate, in response to detecting the contemporaneous characteristics, the mitigating action. The calculation may be performed in response to detecting contemporaneous characteristics or operating parameters falling outside of respective design parameters or may be determined via a simulation prior to detection of such characteristics. [00956] Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin system 200 may provide alerts to one or more users or system elements in response to detecting states. [00957] In embodiments, the digital twin I/O system 204 includes a pathing module 293. The pathing module 293 may ingest navigational data from the elements 2, provide and/or request navigational data to components of the digital twin system 200 (e.g., the digital twin simulation system 206, the digital twin dynamic model system 208, and/or the cognitive intelligence system 258), and/or output navigational data to elements 2 (e.g., to the wearable devices 257). The navigational data may be collected or estimated using, for example, historical data, guidance data provided to the elements 2, combinations thereof, and the like. [00958] For example, the navigational data may be collected or estimated using historical data stored by the digital twin system 200. The historical data may include or be processed to provide information such as acquisition time, associated elements 2, polling intervals, task performed, laden or unladen conditions, whether prior guidance data was provided and/or followed, conditions of the transportation system 11, other elements 2 within the transportation system 11, combinations thereof, and the like. The estimated data may be determined using one or more suitable pathing algorithms. For example, the estimated data may be calculated using suitable order-picking algorithms, suitable path-search algorithms, combinations thereof, and the like. The order-picking algorithm may be, for example, a largest gap algorithm, an s-shape algorithm, an aisle-by-aisle algorithm, a combined algorithm, combinations thereof, and the like. The path- search algorithms may be, for example, Dijkstra's algorithm, the A* algorithm, hierarchical path- finding algorithms, incremental path-finding algorithms, any angle path-finding algorithms, flow field algorithms, combinations thereof, and the like. [00959] Additionally or alternatively, the navigational data may be collected or estimated using guidance data of the worker. The guidance data may include, for example, a calculated route provided to a device of the worker (e.g., a mobile device or the wearable device 257). In another example, the guidance data may include a calculated route provided to a device of the worker that instructs the worker to collect vibration measurements from one or more locations on one or more machines along the route. The collected and/or estimated navigational data may be provided to a user of the digital twin system 200 for visualization, used by other components of the digital twin system 200 for analysis, optimization, and/or alteration, provided to one or more elements 2, combinations thereof, and the like. [00960] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 ingests navigational data for a set of workers for representation in a digital twin. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin system 200 ingests navigational data for a set of mobile equipment assets of a transportation system into a digital twin. [00961] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 ingests a system for modeling traffic of mobile elements in a transportation system digital twin. For example, the digital twin system 200 may model traffic patterns for workers or persons within the transportation system 11, mobile equipment assets, combinations thereof, and the like. The traffic patterns may be estimated based on modeling traffic patterns from and historical data and contemporaneous ingested data. Further, the traffic patterns may be continuously or intermittently updated depending on conditions within the transportation system 11 (e.g., a plurality of autonomous mobile equipment assets may provide information to the digital twin system 200 at a slower update interval than the transportation system 11 including both workers and mobile equipment assets). [00962] The digital twin system 200 may alter traffic patterns (e.g., by providing updated navigational data to one or more of the mobile elements) to achieve one or more predetermined criteria. The predetermined criteria may include, for example, increasing process efficiency, decreasing interactions between laden workers and mobile equipment assets, minimizing worker path length, routing mobile equipment around paths or potential paths of persons, combinations thereof, and the like. [00963] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may provide traffic data and/or navigational information to mobile elements in a transportation system digital twin. The navigational information may be provided as instructions or rule sets, displayed path data, or selective actuation of devices. For example, the digital twin system 200 may provide a set of instructions to a robot to direct the robot to and/or along a desired route for collecting vibration data from one or more specified locations on one or more specified machines along the route using a vibration sensor. The robot may communicate updates to the system including obstructions, reroutes, unexpected interactions with other assets within the transportation system 11, etc. [00964] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 includes design specification information for representing a real-world element 2R using a digital twin 2DT. The digital may correspond to an existing real-world element 2R or a potential real-world element 2R. The design specification information may be received from one or more sources. For example, the design specification information may include design parameters set by user input, determined by the digital twin system 200 (e.g., the via digital twin simulation system 206), optimized by users or the digital twin simulation system 206, combinations thereof, and the like. The digital twin simulation system 206 may represent the design specification information for the component to users, for example, via a display device or a wearable device. The design specification information may be displayed schematically (e.g., as part of a process diagram or table of information) or as part of an augmented reality or virtual reality display. The design specification information may be displayed, for example, in response to a user interaction with the digital twin system 200 (e.g., via user selection of the element or user selection to generally include design specification information within displays). Additionally or alternatively, the design specification information may be displayed automatically, for example, upon the element coming within view of an augmented reality or virtual reality device. In embodiments, the displayed design specification information may further include indicia of information source (e.g., different displayed colors indicate user input versus digital twin system 200 determination), indicia of mismatches (e.g., between design specification information and operational information), combinations thereof, and the like. [00965] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 embeds a set of control instructions for a wearable device within a transportation system digital twin, such that the control instructions are provided to the wearable device to induce an experience for a wearer of the wearable device upon interaction with an element of the transportation system digital twin. The induced experience may be, for example, an augmented reality experience or a virtual reality experience. The wearable device, such as a headset, may be configured to output video, audio, and/or haptic feedback to the wearer to induce the experience. For example, the wearable device may include a display device and the experience may include display of information related to the respective digital twin. The information displayed may include maintenance data associated with the digital twin, vibration data associated with the digital twin, vibration measurement location data associated with the digital twin, financial data associated with the digital twin, such as a profit or loss associated with operation of the digital twin, manufacturing KPIs associated with the digital twin, information related to an occluded element (e.g., a sub-assembly) that is at least partially occluded by a foreground element (e.g., a housing), a virtual model of the occluded element overlaid on the occluded element and visible with the foreground element, operating parameters for the occluded element, a comparison to a design parameter corresponding to the operating parameter displayed, combinations thereof, and the like. Comparisons may include, for example, altering display of the operating parameter to change a color, size, and/or display period for the operating parameter. [00966] In some embodiments, the displayed information may include indicia for removable elements that are or may be configured to provide access to the occluded element with each indicium being displayed proximate to or overlying the respective removable element. Further, the indicia may be sequentially displayed such that a first indicium corresponding to a first removable element (e.g., a housing) is displayed, and a second indicium corresponding to a second removable element (e.g., an access panel within the housing) is displayed in response to the worker removing the first removable element. In some embodiments, the induced experience allows the wearer to see one or more locations on a machine for optimal vibration measurement collection. In an example, the digital twin system 200 may provide an augmented reality view that includes highlighted vibration measurement collection locations on a machine and/or instructions related to collecting vibration measurements. Furthering the example, the digital twin system 200 may provide an augmented reality view that includes instructions related to timing of vibration measurement collection. Information utilized in displaying the highlighted placement locations may be obtained using information stored by the digital twin system 200. In some embodiments, mobile elements may be tracked by the digital twin system 200 (e.g., via observational elements within the transportation system 11 and/or via pathing information communicated to the digital twin system 200) and continually displayed by the wearable device within the occluded view of the worker. This optimizes movement of elements within the transportation system 11, increases worker safety, and minimizes down time of elements resulting from damage. [00967] In some embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may provide an augmented reality view that displays mismatches between design parameters or expected parameters of real-world elements 2R to the wearer. The displayed information may correspond to real-world elements 2R that are not within the view of the wearer (e.g., elements within another room or obscured by machinery). This allows the worker to quickly and accurately troubleshoot mismatches to determine one or more sources for the mismatch. The cause of the mismatch may then be determined, for example, by the digital twin system 200 and corrective actions ordered. In example embodiments, a wearer may be able to view malfunctioning subcomponents of machines without removing occluding elements (e.g., housings or shields). Additionally or alternatively, the wearer may be provided with instructions to repair the device, for example, including display of the removal process (e.g., location of fasteners to be removed), assemblies or subassemblies that should be transported to other areas for repair (e.g., dust-sensitive components), assemblies or subassemblies that need lubrication, and locations of objects for reassembly (e.g., storing location that the wearer has placed removed objects and directing the wearer or another wearer to the stored locations to expedite reassembly and minimize further disassembly or missing parts in the reassembled element). This can expedite repair work, minimize process impact, allow workers to disassemble and reassemble equipment (e.g., by coordinating disassembly without direct communication between the workers), increase equipment longevity and reliability (e.g., by assuring that all components are properly replaced prior to placing back in service), combinations thereof, and the like. [00968] In some embodiments, the induced experience includes a virtual reality view or an augmented reality view that allows the wearer to see information related to existing or planned elements. The information may be unrelated to physical performance of the element (e.g., financial performance such as asset value, energy cost, input material cost, output material value, legal compliance, and corporate operations). One or more wearers may perform a virtual walkthrough or an augmented walkthrough of the transportation system 11. [00969] In examples, the wearable device displays compliance information that expedites inspections or performance of work. [00970] In further examples, the wearable device displays financial information that is used to identify targets for alteration or optimization. For example, a manager or officer may inspect the transportation system 11 for compliance with updated regulations, including information regarding compliance with former regulations, “grandfathered,” and/or excepted elements. This can be used to reduce unnecessary downtime (e.g., scheduling upgrades for the least impactful times, such as during planned maintenance cycles), prevent unnecessary upgrades (e.g., replacing grandfathered or excepted equipment), and reduce capital investment. [00971] Referring back to Fig.75, in embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may include, integrate, integrate with, manage, handle, link to, take input from, provide output to, control, coordinate with, or otherwise interact with a digital twin dynamic model system 208. The digital twin dynamic model system 208 can update the properties of a set of digital twins of a set of transportation entities and/or systems, including properties of physical industrial assets, workers, processes, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and the like (or any of the other types of entities or systems described in this disclosure or in the documents incorporated by reference herein) in such a manner that the digital twins may represent those transportation entities and environments, and properties or attributes thereof, in real-time or very near real-time. In some embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may obtain sensor data received from a sensor system 25 and may determine one or more properties of a transportation system or a transportation entity within an environment based on the sensor data and based on one or more dynamic models. [00972] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may update/assign values of various properties in a digital twin and/or one or more embedded digital twins, including, but not limited to, vibration values, vibration fault level states, probability of failure values, probability of downtime values, cost of downtime values, probability of shutdown values, financial values, KPI values, temperature values, humidity values, heat flow values, fluid flow values, radiation values, substance concentration values, velocity values, acceleration values, location values, pressure values, stress values, strain values, light intensity values, sound level values, volume values, shape characteristics, material characteristics, and dimensions. [00973] In embodiments, a digital twin may be comprised of (e.g., via reference) of other embedded digital twins. For example, a digital twin of a manufacturing facility may include an embedded digital twin of a machine and one or more embedded digital twins of one or more respective motors enclosed within the machine. A digital twin may be embedded, for example, in the memory of a machine that has an onboard IT system (e.g., the memory of an Onboard Diagnostic System, control system (e.g., SCADA system) or the like). Other non-limiting examples of where a digital twin may be embedded include the following: on a wearable device of a worker; in memory on a local network asset, such as a switch, router, access point, or the like; in a cloud computing resource that is provisioned for an environment or entity; and on an asset tag or other memory structure that is dedicated to an entity. [00974] In one example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 can update vibration characteristics throughout a transportation system digital twin based on captured vibration sensor data measured at one or more locations in the transportation system and one or more dynamic models that model vibration within the transportation system digital twin. The transportation system digital twin may, before updating, already contain information about properties of the transportation entities and/or system that can be used to feed a dynamic model, such as information about materials, shapes/volumes (e.g., of conduits), positions, connections/interfaces, and the like, such that vibration characteristics can be represented for the entities and/or system in the digital twin. Alternatively, the dynamic models may be configured using such information. [00975] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 can update the properties of a digital twin and/or one or more embedded digital twins on behalf of a client application 217. In embodiments, a client application 217 may be an application relating to a component or system (e.g., monitoring a transportation system or a component within, simulating a transportation system, or the like). In embodiments, the client application 217 may be used in connection with both fixed and mobile data collection systems. In embodiments, the client application 217 may be used in connection with network connected sensor system 25. [00976] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 leverages digital twin dynamic models to model the behavior of a transportation entity and/or system. Dynamic models may enable digital twins to represent physical reality, including the interactions of transportation entities, by using a limited number of measurements to enrich the digital representation of a transportation entity and/or system, such as based on scientific principles. In embodiments, the dynamic models are formulaic or mathematical models. In embodiments, the dynamic models adhere to scientific laws, laws of nature, and formulas (e.g., Newton’s laws of motion, second law of thermodynamics, Bernoulli’s principle, ideal gas law, Dalton’s law of partial pressures, Hooke’s law of elasticity, Fourier’s law of heat conduction, Archimedes’ principle of buoyancy, and the like). In embodiments, the dynamic models are machine-learned models. [00977] In embodiments, the digital twin system 200 may have a digital twin dynamic model datastore 228 for storing dynamic models that may be represented in digital twins. In embodiments, digital twin dynamic model datastore can be searchable and/or discoverable. In embodiments, digital twin dynamic model datastore can contain metadata that allows a user to understand what characteristics a given dynamic model can handle, what inputs are required, what outputs are provided, and the like. In some embodiments, digital twin dynamic model datastore 228 can be hierarchical (such as where a model can be deepened or made more simple based on the extent of available data and/or inputs, the granularity of the inputs, and/or situational factors (such as where something becomes of high interest and a higher fidelity model is accessed for a period of time). [00978] In embodiments, a digital twin or digital representation of a transportation entity or system may include a set of data structures that collectively define a set of properties of a represented physical asset, device, worker, process, facility, and/or system, and/or possible behaviors thereof. In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may leverage the dynamic models to inform the set of data structures that collectively define a digital twin with real-time data values. The digital twin dynamic models may receive one or more sensor measurements, network connected device data, and/or other suitable data as inputs and calculate one or more outputs based on the received data and one or more dynamic models. The digital twin dynamic model system 208 then uses the one or more outputs to update the digital twin data structures. [00979] In one example, the set of properties of a digital twin of an asset that may be updated by the digital twin dynamic model system 208 using dynamic models may include the vibration characteristics of the asset, temperature(s) of the asset, the state of the asset (e.g., a solid, liquid, or gas), the location of the asset, the displacement of the asset, the velocity of the asset, the acceleration of the asset, probability of downtime values associated with the asset, cost of downtime values associated with the asset, probability of shutdown values associated with the asset, KPIs associated with the asset, financial information associated with the asset, heat flow characteristics associated with the asset, fluid flow rates associated with the asset (e.g., fluid flow rates of a fluid flowing through a pipe), identifiers of other digital twins embedded within the digital twin of the asset and/or identifiers of digital twins embedding the digital twin of the asset, and/or other suitable properties. Dynamic models associated with a digital twin of an asset can be configured to calculate, interpolate, extrapolate, and/or output values for such asset digital twin properties based on input data collected from sensors and/or devices disposed in the transportation system setting and/or other suitable data and subsequently populate the asset digital twin with the calculated values. [00980] In some embodiments, the set of properties of a digital twin of a transportation system device that may be updated by the digital twin dynamic model system 208 using dynamic models may include the status of the device, a location of the device, the temperature(s) of a device, a trajectory of the device, identifiers of other digital twins that the digital twin of the device is embedded within, embeds, is linked to, includes, integrates with, takes input from, provides output to, and/or interacts with and the like. Dynamic models associated with a digital twin of a device can be configured to calculate or output values for these device digital twin properties based on input data and subsequently update the device digital twin with the calculated values. [00981] In some embodiments, the set of properties of a digital twin of a transportation system worker that may be updated by the digital twin dynamic model system 208 using dynamic models may include the status of the worker, the location of the worker, a stress measure for the worker, a task being performed by the worker, a performance measure for the worker, and the like. Dynamic models associated with a digital twin of a transportation system worker can be configured to calculate or output values for such properties based on input data, which then may be used to populate the transportation system worker digital twin. In embodiments, transportation system worker dynamic models (e.g., psychometric models) can be configured to predict reactions to stimuli, such as cues that are given to workers to direct them to undertake tasks and/or alerts or warnings that are intended to induce safe behavior. In embodiments, transportation system worker dynamic models may be workflow models (Gantt charts and the like), failure mode effects analysis models (FMEA), biophysical models (such as to model worker fatigue, energy utilization, hunger), and the like. [00982] Example properties of a digital twin of a transportation system that may be updated by the digital twin dynamic model system 208 using dynamic models may include the dimensions of the transportation system environment, the temperature(s) of the transportation system environment, the humidity value(s) of the transportation system environment, the fluid flow characteristics in the transportation system environment, the heat flow characteristics of the transportation system environment, the lighting characteristics of the transportation system environment, the acoustic characteristics of the transportation system environment the physical objects in the transportation system environment, processes occurring in the transportation system environment, currents of the transportation system environment (if a body of water), and the like. Dynamic models associated with a digital twin of a transportation system can be configured to calculate or output these properties based on input data collected from sensors and/or devices disposed in the transportation system environment and/or other suitable data and subsequently populate the transportation system digital twin with the calculated values. [00983] In embodiments, dynamic models may adhere to physical limitations that define boundary conditions, constants or variables for digital twin modeling. For example, the physical characterization of a digital twin of a transportation entity or transportation system may include a gravity constant (e.g., 9.8 m/s2), friction coefficients of surfaces, thermal coefficients of materials, maximum temperatures of assets, maximum flow capacities, and the like. Additionally or alternatively, the dynamic models may adhere to the laws of nature. For example, dynamic models may adhere to the laws of thermodynamics, laws of motion, laws of fluid dynamics, laws of buoyancy, laws of heat transfer, laws or radiation, laws of quantum dynamics, and the like. In some embodiments, dynamic models may adhere to biological aging theories or mechanical aging principles. Thus, when the digital twin dynamic model system 208 facilitates a real-time digital representation, the digital representation may conform to dynamic models, such that the digital representations mimic real world conditions. In some embodiments, the output(s) from a dynamic model can be presented to a human user and/or compared against real-world data to ensure convergence of the dynamic models with the real world. Furthermore, as dynamic models are based partly on assumptions, the properties of a digital twin may be improved and/or corrected when a real-world behavior differs from that of the digital twin. In embodiments, additional data collection and/or instrumentation can be recommended based on the recognition that an input is missing from a desired dynamic model, that a model in operation isn’t working as expected (perhaps due to missing and/or faulty sensor information), that a different result is needed (such as due to situational factors that make something of high interest), and the like. [00984] Dynamic models may be obtained from a number of different sources. In some embodiments, a user can upload a model created by the user or a third party. Additionally or alternatively, the models may be created on the digital twin system using a graphical user interface. The dynamic models may include bespoke models that are configured for a particular transportation system and/or set of transportation entities and/or agnostic models that are applicable to similar types of digital twins. The dynamic models may be machine-learned models. [00985] Fig.79 illustrates example embodiments of a method for updating a set of properties of a digital twin and/or one or more embedded digital twins on behalf of client applications 217. In embodiments, a digital twin dynamic model system 208 leverages one or more dynamic models to update a set of properties of a digital twin and/or one or more embedded digital twins on behalf of client application 217 based on the effect of collected sensor data from sensor system 25, data collected from network connected devices 265, and/or other suitable data in the set of dynamic models that are used to enable the transportation system digital twins. In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may be instructed to run specific dynamic models using one or more digital twins that represent physical transportation system assets, devices, workers, processes, and/or transportation systems that are managed, maintained, and/or monitored by the client applications 217. [00986] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may obtain data from other types of external data sources that are not necessarily transportation-related data sources, but may provide data that can be used as input data for the dynamic models. For example, weather data, news events, social media data, and the like may be collected, crawled, subscribed to, and the like to supplement sensor data, network connected device data, and/or other data that is used by the dynamic models. In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may obtain data from a machine vision system. The machine vision system may use video and/or still images to provide measurements (e.g., locations, statuses, and the like) that may be used as inputs by the dynamic models. [00987] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may feed this data into one or more of the dynamic models discussed above to obtain one or more outputs. These outputs may include calculated vibration fault level states, vibration severity unit values, vibration characteristics, probability of failure values, probability of downtime values, probability of shutdown values, cost of downtime values, cost of shutdown values, time to failure values, temperature values, pressure values, humidity values, precipitation values, visibility values, air quality values, strain values, stress values, displacement values, velocity values, acceleration values, location values, performance values, financial values, KPI values, electrodynamic values, thermodynamic values, fluid flow rate values, and the like. The client application 217 may then initiate a digital twin visualization event using the results obtained by the digital twin dynamic model system 208. In embodiments, the visualization may be a heat map visualization. [00988] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive requests to update one or more properties of digital twins of transportation entities and/or systems such that the digital twins represent the transportation entities and/or systems in real-time. As shown in Fig.79, at box 100, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 receives a request to update one or more properties of one or more of the digital twins of transportation entities and/or systems. For example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive the request from a client application 217 or from another process executed by the digital twin system 200 (e.g., a predictive maintenance process). The request may indicate the one or more properties and the digital twin or digital twins implicated by the request. In Fig.79 step 102, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 determines the one or more digital twins required to fulfill the request and retrieves the one or more required digital twins, including any embedded digital twins, from the digital twin datastore 269. At Fig.79, box 104, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 determines one or more dynamic models required to fulfill the request and retrieves the one or more required dynamic models from digital twin dynamic model store 228. At Fig. 79, box 106, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 selects one or more sensors from sensor system 25, data collected from network connected devices 265, and/or other data sources from digital twin I/O system 204 based on available data sources for one or more inputs for the one or more dynamic models. In embodiments, the data sources may be defined in the inputs required by the one or more dynamic models or may be selected using a lookup table. At Fig.79, box 108, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 retrieves the selected data from digital twin I/O system 204, which receives sensor data and other data via real-time sensor API 214. At Fig.79, box 110, digital twin dynamic model system 208 runs the one or more dynamic models using the retrieved data (e.g., vibration sensor data, network connected device data, and the like) as input data and determines one or more output values based on the one or more dynamic models and the input data. At Fig.79, box 112, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 updates the values of one or more properties of the one or more digital twins based on the one or more outputs of the dynamic model(s). [00989] In example embodiments, client application 217 may be configured to provide a digital representation and/or visualization of the digital twin of a transportation entity. In embodiments, the client application 217 may include one or more software modules that are executed by one or more server devices. These software modules may be configured to quantify properties of the digital twin, model properties of a digital twin, and/or to visualize digital twin behaviors. In embodiments, these software modules may enable a user to select a particular digital twin behavior visualization for viewing. In embodiments, these software modules may enable a user to select to view a digital twin behavior visualization playback. In some embodiments, the client application 217 may provide a selected behavior visualization to digital twin dynamic model system 208. [00990] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive requests from the client application 217 to update properties of a digital twin in order to enable a digital representation of a transportation entity and/or system wherein the real-time digital representation is a visualization of the digital twin. In embodiments, a digital twin may be rendered by a computing device, such that a human user can view the digital representations of real-world assets, devices, workers, processes and/or systems. For example, the digital twin may be rendered and outcome to a display device. In embodiments, dynamic model outputs and/or related data may be overlaid on the rendering of the digital twin. In embodiments, dynamic model outputs and/or related information may appear with the rendering of the digital twin in a display interface. In embodiments, the related information may include real-time video footage associated with the real-world entity represented by the digital twin. In embodiments, the related information may include a sum of each of the vibration fault level states in the machine. In embodiments, the related information may be graphical information. In embodiments, the graphical information may depict motion and/or motion as a function of frequency for individual machine components. In embodiments, graphical information may depict motion and/or motion as a function of frequency for individual machine components, wherein a user is enabled to select a view of the graphical information in the x, y, and z dimensions. In embodiments, graphical information may depict motion and/or motion as a function of frequency for individual machine components, wherein the graphical information includes harmonic peaks and peaks. In embodiments, the related information may be cost data, including the cost of downtime per day data, cost of repair data, cost of new part data, cost of new machine data, and the like. In embodiments, related information may be a probability of downtime data, probability of failure data, and the like. In embodiments, related information may be time to failure data. [00991] In embodiments, the related information may be recommendations and/or insights. For example, recommendations or insights received from the cognitive intelligence system related to a machine may appear with the rendering of the digital twin of a machine in a display interface. [00992] In embodiments, clicking, touching, or otherwise interacting with the digital twin rendered in the display interface can allow a user to “drill down” and see underlying subsystems or processes and/or embedded digital twins. For example, in response to a user clicking on a machine bearing rendered in the digital twin of a machine, the display interface can allow a user to drill down and see information related to the bearing, view a 3D visualization of the bearing’s vibration, and/or view a digital twin of the bearing. [00993] In embodiments, clicking, touching, or otherwise interacting with information related to the digital twin rendered in the display interface can allow a user to “drill down” and see underlying information. [00994] Fig.80 illustrates example embodiments of a display interface that renders the digital twin of a dryer centrifuge and other information related to the dryer centrifuge. Dryer centrifuges may be included in many transportation systems. For example, some ships use a dryer centrifuge to separate water from fuel and lubricating oil. Transportation systems and transportation entities such as, for example, shipping ports, fuel infrastructure systems at airports, and oil platforms, may include a dryer centrifuge. [00995] In some embodiments, the digital twin may be rendered and output in a virtual reality display. For example, a user may view a 3D rendering of a transportation system (e.g., using a monitor or a virtual reality headset). The user may also inspect and/or interact with digital twins of transportation entities. In embodiments, a user may view processes being performed with respect to one or more digital twins (e.g., collecting measurements, movements, interactions, loading, packing, fueling, resupplying, maintaining, cleaning, painting and the like). In embodiments, a user may provide input that controls one or more properties of a digital twin via a graphical user interface. [00996] In some embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive requests from client application 217 to update properties of a digital twin in order to enable a digital representation of transportation entities and/or systems wherein the digital representation is a heat map visualization of the digital twin. In embodiments, a platform is provided having heat maps displaying collected data from the sensor system 25, network connected devices 265, and data outputs from dynamic models for providing input to a display interface. In embodiments, the heat map interface is provided as an output for digital twin data, such as for handling and providing information for visualization of various sensor data, dynamic model output data, and other data (such as map data, analog sensor data, and other data), such as to another system, such as a mobile device, tablet, dashboard, computer, AR/VR device, or the like. A digital twin representation may be provided in a form factor (e.g., user device, VR-enabled device, AR- enabled device, or the like) suitable for delivering visual input to a user, such as the presentation of a map that includes indicators of levels of analog sensor data, digital sensor data, and output values from the dynamic models (such as data indicating vibration fault level states, vibration severity unit values, probability of downtime values, cost of downtime values, probability of shutdown values, time to failure values, probability of failure values, KPIs, temperatures, levels of rotation, vibration characteristics, fluid flow, heating or cooling, pressure, substance concentrations, and many other output values). In embodiments, signals from various sensors or input sources (or selective combinations, permutations, mixes, and the like) as well as data determined by the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may provide input data to a heat map. Coordinates may include real world location coordinates (such as geo-location or location on a map of a transportation system), as well as other coordinates, such as time-based coordinates, frequency-based coordinates, or other coordinates that allow for representation of analog sensor signals, digital signals, dynamic model outputs, input source information, and various combinations, in a map-based visualization, such that colors may represent varying levels of input along the relevant dimensions. For example, among many other possibilities, if transportation system machine component is at a critical vibration fault level state, the heat map interface may alert a user by showing the machine component in orange. In the example of a heat map, clicking, touching, or otherwise interacting with the heat map can allow a user to drill down and see underlying sensor, dynamic model outputs, or other input data that is used as an input to the heat map display. In other examples, such as ones where a digital twin is displayed in a VR or AR environment, if a transportation system machine component is vibrating outside of normal operation (e.g., at a suboptimal, critical, or alarm vibration fault level), a haptic interface may induce vibration when a user touches a representation of the machine component, or if a machine component is operating in an unsafe manner, a directional sound signal may direct a user’s attention toward the machine in digital twin, such as by playing in a particular speaker of a headset or other sound system. [00997] In embodiments, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may take a set of ambient environmental data and/or other data and automatically update a set of properties of a digital twin of a transportation entity or system based on the effect of the ambient environmental data and/or other data in the set of dynamic models that are used to enable the digital twin. Ambient environmental data may include temperature data, pressure data, humidity data, wind data, rainfall data, tide data, storm surge data, cloud cover data, snowfall data, visibility data, water level data, and the like. Additionally or alternatively, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may use a set of ambient environmental data measurements collected by a set of network connected devices 265 disposed in a transportation system setting as inputs for the set of dynamic models that are used to enable the digital twin. For example, digital twin dynamic model system 208 may feed the dynamic models data collected, handled or exchanged by network connected devices 265, such as cameras, monitors, embedded sensors, mobile devices, diagnostic devices and systems, instrumentation systems, telematics systems, and the like, such as for monitoring various parameters and features of machines, devices, components, parts, operations, functions, conditions, states, events, workflows and other elements (collectively encompassed by the term “states”) of transportation systems. Other examples of network connected devices include smart fire alarms, smart security systems, smart air quality monitors, smart/learning thermostats, and smart lighting systems. [00998] Fig.81 illustrates example embodiments of a method for updating a set of vibration fault level states for a set of bearings in a digital twin of a machine. In examples, the machine may be a transportation entity or system. In this example, a client application 217, which interfaces with digital twin dynamic model system 208, may be configured to provide a visualization of the fault level states of the bearings in the digital twin of the machine. [00999] In the example depicted in Fig.81, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive requests from the client application 217 to update one or more vibration fault level states of a digital twin of a machine. At Fig.81, box 200, digital twin dynamic model system 208 receives a request from client application 217 to update one or more bearing vibration fault level states of one or more digital twins. Next, in Fig.81, step 202, digital twin dynamic model system 208 determines the one or more digital twins to fulfill the request and retrieves the one or more digital twins from the digital twin datastore 269. In this example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may retrieve the digital twin of the machine and any embedded digital twins, such as any embedded motor digital twins and bearing digital twins, and any digital twins that embed the machine digital twin, such as the transportation system digital twin. At Fig.81, box 204, digital twin dynamic model system 208 determines one or more dynamic models to fulfill the request and retrieves the one or more dynamic models from the digital twin dynamic model datastore 228. At Fig.81, box 206, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 selects data sources (e.g., one or more sensors from sensor system 25, data from network connected devices 265, and any other suitable data via digital twin I/O system 204) from a set of available data sources (e.g., available sensors from a set of sensors in sensor system 25) for the one or more inputs of the one or more dynamic models. In the present example, the retrieved one or more dynamic models may take one or more vibration sensor measurements from vibration sensors 235 for input to the one or more dynamic models. In embodiments, vibration sensors 235 may be optical vibration sensors, single axis vibration sensors, tri-axial vibration sensors, and the like. At Fig.81, box 208, digital twin dynamic model system 208 retrieves data from the selected data sources via the digital twin I/O system 204. Next, at Fig. 81, box 210, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 runs the one or more dynamic models, using the retrieved data as inputs, and calculates one or more output values that represent the one or more bearing vibration fault level state. Next, at Fig.81, box 212, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 updates one or more bearing vibration fault level states of the one or more digital twins, based on the one or more output values of the one or more dynamic models. The client application 217 may obtain vibration fault level states of the bearings and may display the obtained vibration fault level state associated with each bearing and/or display colors associated with fault level severity (e.g., red for alarm, orange for critical, yellow for suboptimal, green for normal operation) in the rendering of one or more of the digital twins on a display interface. [01000] In another example, a client application 217 may be an augmented reality application. In some embodiments of this example, the client application 217 may obtain vibration fault level states of bearings in a field of view of an AR-enabled device (e.g., smart glasses) hosting the client application from the digital twin of the transportation system (e.g., via an API of the digital twin system 200) and may display the obtained vibration fault level states on the display of the AR-enabled device, such that the vibration fault level state displayed corresponds to the location in the field of view of the AR-enabled device. In this way, a vibration fault level state may be displayed even if there are no vibration sensors located within the field of view of the AR- enabled device. [01001] Fig.82 illustrates example embodiments of a method for updating a set of vibration severity unit values of bearings in a digital twin of a machine. Vibration severity units may be measured as displacement, velocity, and acceleration. [01002] In this example, client application 217 that interfaces with the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may be configured to provide a visualization of the three-dimensional vibration characteristics of bearings in a digital twin of a machine.

At Fig.82, box 300, digital twin dynamic model system 208 receives a request from client application 217 to update one or more vibration severity unit values in one or more digital twins of a transportation system. Next, in Fig.82, at step 302, a digital twin dynamic model system 208 determines the one or more digital twins required to fulfill the request and retrieves the one or more required digital twins from digital twin datastore 269. In this example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may retrieve the one or more digital twins of the transportation system and any embedded digital twins (e.g., digital twins of bearings and other components).

In the present example, the retrieved dynamic models may be configured to take one or more vibration sensor measurements as inputs and provide severity unit values for bearings in the transportation system. At Fig.82, box 308, digital twin dynamic model system 208 retrieves data from the selected data sources. For example, the data may be one or more measurements from each of the selected one or more vibration sensors. In the present example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 retrieves measurements from vibration sensors 235 via digital twin I/O system 204. At Fig.82, box 310, digital twin dynamic model system 208 runs the one or more dynamic models using the retrieved data as the one or more inputs to calculate one or more output values that represent vibration severity unit values for the one or more digital twins. Next, at Fig.82, box 312, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 updates the one or more vibration severity unit values in the one or more digital twins and all other embedded digital twins or digital twins that embed the one or more digital twins based on the one or more output values of the one or more dynamic models. [01004] Fig.83 illustrates example embodiments of a method for updating a set of probability of failure values for machine components in the digital twin of a machine.

In this example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may retrieve the digital twin of the transportation system, the digital twin of the machine, and the digital twins of machine components from digital twin datastore 269. At Fig. 83, box 404, digital twin dynamic model system 208 determines one or more dynamic models required to fulfill the request and retrieves the one or more required dynamic models from dynamic model datastore 228. At Fig.83, box 406, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 selects, via digital twin I/O system 204, dynamic model input data sources (e.g., one or more sensors from sensor system 25, data from network connected devices 265, historical failure records, and any other suitable data) based on available data sources (e.g., available sensors from a set of sensors in sensor system 25) and the and the one or more required inputs of the dynamic model(s). In the present example, the retrieved dynamic models may take one or more vibration measurements from vibration sensors 235 and historical failure data as dynamic model inputs and output probability of failure values for the machine components in the digital twin of the machine. At Fig.83, box 408, digital twin dynamic model system 208 retrieves data from each of the selected sensors and/or network connected devices via digital twin I/O system 204. At Fig.83, box 410, digital twin dynamic model system 208 runs the one or more dynamic models using the retrieved one or more vibration measurements and historical failure data as inputs and calculates one or more output values that represent the probability of failure values for the one or more digital twins. Next, at Fig.83, box 412, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 updates the one or more probability of failure values of one or more digital twins, all embedded digital twins, and all digital twins that embed the digital twin based on the output values of the one or more dynamic models. [01006] Fig.84 illustrates example embodiments of a method for updating a set of probability of downtime for machines in one or more digital twins of a transportation system. [01007] In this example, client application 217, which interfaces with the digital twin dynamic model system 208, may be configured to provide a visualization of the probability of downtime values of a transportation system in the one or more digital twins of the transportation system. [01008] In this example, the digital twin dynamic model system 208 may receive requests from a client application 217 to update probability of downtime values of one or more digital twins of a transportation system.

In the present example, the retrieved one or more dynamic models may be configured to take vibration measurements from vibration sensors and historical downtime data as inputs and output probability of downtime values for different machines throughout the transportation system. At Fig.84, box 508, digital twin dynamic model system 208 retrieves data from the selected data sources. For example, the retrieved data may be one or more measurements from each of the selected one or more vibration sensors retrieved via digital twin I/O system 204. At Fig.84, box 510, digital twin dynamic model system 208 runs the one or more dynamic models using the retrieved data as the one or more inputs to calculate one or more output values that represent the one or more probability of downtime values.

The enterprise data lake 8942 may be a data lake that includes data collected from any number of sources. In embodiments, the market data 8942 may include data that is collected from disparate data sources concerning or related to competitors and other cohorts in the marketplace and supply chain. Market data 8942 may be collected from many different sources and may be structured or unstructured. In embodiments, market data 8942 may contain an element of uncertainty that may be depicted in a digital twin that relies on such market data 8942, such as by showing error bars, probability cones, random walk paths, or the like.

Additional or alternative types of data may be used to populate an enterprise digital twin. [01018] In embodiments, the data structuring system 8900 may structure the various data collected by and/or on behalf of the enterprise. In embodiments, the digital twin generation system 8928 generates the enterprise digital twins. As discussed, the digital twin generation system 8928 may receive a request for a particular type of digital twin (e.g., a CEO digital twin 8902 or a CTO digital twin 8910) and may determine the types of data needed to populate the digital twin based on the configuration of the requested type of digital twin. In embodiments, the digital twin generation system 8928 may then generate the requested digital twin based on the various types of data (which may include structured data structured by the data structuring system 8900). In some embodiments, the digital twin generation system 8928 may output the generated digital twin to a client application 217, which may then display the requested digital twins. [01019] In embodiments, a CEO digital twin 8902 is a digital twin configured for the CEO or analogous top-level decision maker of an enterprise. The CEO digital twin 8902 may include high-level views of different states and/or operations data of the enterprise, including real-time and historical representations of major assets, processes, divisions, performance metrics, the condition of different business units of the enterprise, and any other mission-critical information type. In embodiments, the CEO digital twin 8902 may provide simulations, predictions, statistical summaries, decision-support based on analytics, machine learning, and/or other AI and learning- type processing of inputs (e.g., fiscal data, competitor data, product data, and the like).

In some embodiments, different relevant datasets are hooked to a digital twin (e.g., an executive digital twin, an environment digital twin, or the like) at the appropriate level of granularity, thereby allowing for the structural aspects of the data (e.g., system of accounts, sensor readings, sales data, or the like) to be a part of the data analytics process. One aspect of making a perspective function is that the user can change the structural view or the granularity of data while potentially forecasting future events or changes to the structure to guide control of the area of the business at question. In embodiments, the term "granularity" or "grain of data" may refer to a single line of data, a single byte of data, a single file, a single instance, or the like. Examples of “grains of data" or highly granular data may include a detail record on a sale, a single block in a blockchain in a distributed ledger, a single event in an event log, a single vibration reading from a vibration sensor, or similar singular or atomic data units, and the like. Grain or atomicity may impose a constraint in how the data can be combined or processed to form different outputs. For example, if some element of data is captured only at the level of once-per-day, then it can only be broken down to single days ( or aggregation of days) and cannot be broken down to hours or minutes, unless derived from the day representation (e.g., using inference techniques and/or models). Similarly, if data is provided only at the aggregate business unit level, it can be broken down to the level of an individual employee only by, for example, averaging, modeling, or inductive functions. Role-based and other enterprise digital twins may benefit from finer levels of data, as aggregations and other processing steps may produce outputs that are dynamic in nature and/or that relate to dynamic processes and/or real-time decision-making. It is noted that different types of digital twins may have different "sized" grains of data. For example, the grains of data that feed a CEO digital twin may be at a different granularity level than the grains of data that feed a COO digital twin. In some embodiments, however, a CEO may drill down into a state of the CEO digital twin and the granularity for the selected state may be increased. [01022] In embodiments, the executive digital twins may link to, interact with, integrate with and/or be used by a number of different applications. For example, the executive digital twins may be used in automated Al-reporting tools 8960, collaboration tools 8962, in connection with executive agents 8964, in board meeting tools 8966, for training modules 8968, and for planning tools 8970. [01023] Fig.90 illustrates example embodiments of a method for configuring role-based digital twins. At Fig.90, box 9000, a processing system having one or more processors receives an organizational definition of an enterprise, wherein the organizational definition defines a set of roles within the enterprise. In this example, the organizational definition may further identify a set of physical assets of the enterprise. Next, in Fig.90, at step 9102, the processing system generates an organizational digital twin of the enterprise based on the organizational definition, wherein the organizational digital twin is a digital representation of an organizational structure of the enterprise. In some examples, the organizational structure includes hierarchical components. In some examples, the hierarchical components are embodied in a graph data structure. At Fig. 90, box 9004, the processing system determines a set of relationships between different roles within the set of roles based on the organizational definition. In this example, determining the set of relationships may include parsing the organizational definition to identify a reporting structure and one or more business units of the enterprise. The set of relationships may be inferred from the reporting structure and the business units. At Fig.90, box 9006, the processing system determines a set of settings for a role from the set of roles based on the determined set of relationships. At Fig.90, box 9008, is linking an identity of a respective individual to the role. Some examples further include linking a set of identities to the set of roles, wherein each identity corresponds to a respective role from the set of roles. At Fig.90, box 9010, the processing system determines a configuration of a presentation layer of a role-based digital twin corresponding to the role based on the settings of the role that is linked to the identity, wherein the configuration of the presentation layer defines a set of states that is depicted in the role-based digital twin associated with the role. Next, at Fig.90, box 9012, the processing system determines a set of data sources that provide data corresponding to the set of states, wherein each data source provides one or more respective types of data. At Fig.90, box 9014 is configuring one or more data structures that are received from the one or more data sources, wherein the one or more data structures are configured to provide data used to populate one or more of the set of states in the role-based digital twin. [01024] In examples, the set of settings for the set of roles may include role-based preference settings. In some examples, the role-based preference settings may be configured based on a set of role-specific templates. In some examples, the set of templates may include at least one of a CEO template, a COO template, a CFO template, a counsel template, a board member template, a CTO template, a chief marketing officer template, an information technology manager template, a chief information officer template, a chief data officer template, an investor template, a customer template, a vendor template, a supplier template, an engineering manager template, a project manager template, an operations manager template, a sales manager template, a salesperson template, a service manager template, a maintenance operator template, and a business development template. [01025] In some examples, the set of settings for the set of roles may include role-based taxonomy settings. In some examples, the taxonomy settings may identify a taxonomy that is used to characterize data that is presented in the role-based digital twin, such that the data is presented in a taxonomy that is linked to the role corresponding to the role-based digital twin. In some examples, the taxonomy may include at least one of a CEO taxonomy, a COO taxonomy, a CFO taxonomy, a counsel taxonomy, a board member taxonomy, a CTO taxonomy, a chief marketing officer taxonomy, an information technology manager taxonomy, a chief information officer taxonomy, a chief data officer taxonomy, an investor taxonomy, a customer taxonomy, a vendor taxonomy, a supplier taxonomy, an engineering manager taxonomy, a project manager taxonomy, an operations manager taxonomy, a sales manager taxonomy, a salesperson taxonomy, a service manager taxonomy, a maintenance operator taxonomy, and a business development taxonomy. [01026] In examples, at least one role of the set of roles may be selected from among a CEO role, a COO role, a CFO role, a counsel role, a board member role, a CTO role, an information technology manager role, a chief information officer role, a chief data officer role, a human resources manager role, an investor role, an engineering manager role, an accountant role, an auditor role, a resource planning role, a public relations manager role, a project manager role, an operations manager role, a research and development role, an engineer role, including but not limited to mechanical engineer, electrical engineer, semiconductor engineer, chemical engineer, computer science engineer, data science engineer, network engineer, or some other type of engineer, and a business development role. In examples, the at least one role may be selected from among a factory manager role, a factory operations role, a factory worker role, a power plant manager role, a power plant operations role, a power plant worker role, an equipment service role, and an equipment maintenance operator role. In examples, the at least one role may be selected from among a chief marketing officer role, a product development role, a supply chain manager role, a product design role, a marketing analyst role, a product manager role, a competitive analyst role, a customer service representative role, a procurement operator, an inbound logistics operator, an outbound logistics operator, a customer role, a supplier role, a vendor role, a demand management role, a marketing manager role, a sales manager role, a service manager role, a demand forecasting role, a retail manager role, a warehouse manager role, a salesperson role, and a distribution center manager role. [01027] Fig.91 illustrates example embodiments of a method for configuring a digital twin of a workforce. At Fig.91, box 9100, the method includes representing an enterprise organizational structure in a digital twin of an enterprise. Next, in Fig.91, at step 9102, the method includes parsing the structure to infer relationships among a set of roles within the organizational structure, the relationships and the roles defining a workforce of the enterprise. At Fig.91, box 9104, the method includes configuring the presentation layer of a digital twin to represent the enterprise as a set of workforces having a set of attributes and relationships. In examples, the digital twin integrates with an enterprise resource planning system that operates on a data structure representing a set of roles in the enterprise, such that changes in the enterprise resource planning system are automatically reflected in the digital twin. wherein the organizational structure includes hierarchical components. In examples, the hierarchical components may be embodied in a graph data structure. In examples, the workforce may be a factory operations workforce. In examples, the workforce may be a plant operations workforce. In examples, the workforce may be a resource extraction operations workforce. In examples, at least one workforce role may be selected from among a CEO role, a COO role, a CFO role, a counsel role, a board member role, a CTO role, an information technology manager role, a Chief information officer role, a chief data officer role, an investor role, an engineering manager role, a project manager role, an operations manager role, and a business development role. In examples, the digital twin provides a recommendation for configuration of the workforce. Quantum computing [01028] FIG.92 illustrates an example quantum computing system 9200 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure that may be used in conjunction with the transportation system, as described herein. In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 provides a framework for providing a set of quantum computing services to one or more quantum computing clients, including clients within the transportation system, including clients associated with one or more vehicles 110, which may include various mechanical, electrical, and software components and systems, such as a powertrain 113, a suspension system 117, a steering system, a braking system, a fuel system, a charging system, seats 128, a combustion engine, an electric vehicle drive train, a transmission 119, a gear set, and the like. The vehicle may have a vehicle user interface 123, which may include a set of interfaces that include a steering system, buttons, levers, touch screen interfaces, audio interfaces, and the like as described throughout this disclosure. In some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 framework may be at least partially replicated in respective quantum computing clients. In these embodiments, an individual client may include some or all of the capabilities of the quantum computing system 9200, whereby the quantum computing system 9200 is adapted for the specific functions performed by the subsystems of the quantum computing client. Additionally, or alternatively, in some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may be implemented as a set of microservices, such that different quantum computing clients may leverage the quantum computing system 9200 via one or more APIs exposed to the quantum computing clients. In these embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may be configured to perform various types of quantum computing services that may be adapted for different quantum computing clients. In either of these configurations, a quantum computing client may provide a request to the quantum computing system 9200, whereby the request is to perform a specific task (e.g., an optimization). In response, the quantum computing system 9200 executes the requested task and returns a response to the quantum computing client. [01029] Referring to FIG. 92, in some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum adapted services library 9202, a quantum general services library 9204, a quantum data services library 9206, a quantum computing engine library 9208, a quantum computing configuration service 9210, a quantum computing execution system 9212, and quantum computing API interface 9214. [01030] In embodiments, the quantum adapted services library 9202 includes transportation optimization 9201, design optimization 9203, smart contract configuration 9205, risk management 9207, fraud detection 9209, prediction 9211, cryptography 9213, and transfer pricing 9215. [01031] In embodiments, the quantum general services library 9204 includes quantum continual learning system 9232, neural network utilization 9217, resource queue management 9219, quantum location-aware data caching 9221, traditional computing optimization 9223, quantum superposition 9225, quantum teleportation 9227, quantum entanglement 9229, system resource application 9231, and quantum principle analysis 9233. In embodiments, the quantum computing execution system 9212 includes asset allocation module 9249 and quantum state output module 9250. [01032] In embodiments, the quantum data services library 9206 includes quantum input filtering service 9224, quantum output filtering 9226, quantum application filtering 9235, and quantum database engine 9228. In embodiments, the quantum computing process modules 9218 include qubits 9236, adiabatic quantum computer 9237, trapped-ion computer module 9222, on-way quantum computer 9238, and quantum annealing module 9220. In embodiments, the quantum computing engine configurations 9216 include quantum circuit modeling 9239, analog configurations 9240, digital configurations 9241, quantum turing machine 9242, conventional computing 9243, hybrid computing 9244, and quantum error corrected 9245. [01033] In embodiments, the quantum computing engine library 9208 includes quantum computing engine configurations 9216 and quantum computing process modules 9218 based on various supported quantum models. In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may support many different quantum models, including, but not limited to, the quantum circuit model, quantum Turing machine, adiabatic quantum computer, spintronic computing system (such as using spin-orbit coupling to generate spin-polarized electronic states in non-magnetic solids, such as ones using diamond materials), one-way quantum computer, quantum annealing, and various quantum cellular automata. Under the quantum circuit model, quantum circuits may be based on the quantum bit, or "qubit", which is somewhat analogous to the bit in classical computation. Qubits may be in a 1 or 0 quantum state or they may be in a superposition of the 1 and 0 states. However, when qubits have measured the result of a measurement, qubits will always be in is always either a 1 or 0 quantum state. The probabilities related to these two outcomes depend on the quantum state that the qubits were in immediately before the measurement. Computation is performed by manipulating qubits with quantum logic gates, which are somewhat analogous to classical logic gates. [01034] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may be physically implemented using an analog approach or a digital approach. Analog approaches may include, but are not limited to, quantum simulation, quantum annealing, and adiabatic quantum computation. In embodiments, digital quantum computers use quantum logic gates for computation. Both analog and digital approaches may use quantum bits, or qubits. [01035] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a quantum annealing module 9220 wherein the quantum annealing module may be configured to find the global minimum or maximum of a given objective function over a given set of candidate solutions (e.g., candidate states) using quantum fluctuations. As used herein, quantum annealing may refer to a meta-procedure for finding a procedure that identifies an absolute minimum or maximum, such as a size, length, cost, time, distance or other measure, from within a possibly very large, but finite, set of possible solutions using quantum fluctuation-based computation instead of classical computation. The quantum annealing module 9220 may be leveraged for problems where the search space is discrete (e.g., combinatorial optimization problems) with many local minima, such as finding the ground state of a spin glass or the traveling salesman problem. [01036] In embodiments, the quantum annealing module 9220 starts from a quantum-mechanical superposition of all possible states (candidate states) with equal weights. The quantum annealing module 9220 may then evolve, such as following the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, a natural quantum-mechanical evolution of systems (e.g., physical systems, logical systems, or the like). In embodiments, the amplitudes of all candidate states change, realizing quantum parallelism according to the time-dependent strength of the transverse field, which causes quantum tunneling between states. If the rate of change of the transverse field is slow enough, the quantum annealing module 9220 may stay close to the ground state of the instantaneous Hamiltonian. If the rate of change of the transverse field is accelerated, the quantum annealing module 9220 may leave the ground state temporarily but produce a higher likelihood of concluding in the ground state of the final problem energy state or Hamiltonian. [01037] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may include arbitrarily large numbers of qubits and may transport ions to spatially distinct locations in an array of ion traps, building large, entangled states via photonically connected networks of remotely entangled ion chains. [01038] In some implementations, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a trapped ion computer module 9222, which may be a quantum computer that applies trapped ions to solve complex problems. Trapped ion computer module 9222 may have low quantum decoherence and may be able to construct large solution states. Ions, or charged atomic particles, may be confined and suspended in free space using electromagnetic fields. Qubits are stored in stable electronic states of each ion, and quantum information may be transferred through the collective quantized motion of the ions in a shared trap (interacting through the Coulomb force). Lasers may be applied to induce coupling between the qubit states (for single-qubit operations) or coupling between the internal qubit states and the external motional states (for entanglement between qubits). [01039] In some embodiments of the invention, a traditional computer, including a processor, memory, and a graphical user interface (GUI), may be used for designing, compiling, and providing output from the execution and the quantum computing system 9200 may be used for executing the machine language instructions. In some embodiments of the invention, the quantum computing system 9200 may be simulated by a computer program executed by the traditional computer. In such embodiments, a superposition of states of the quantum computing system 9200 can be prepared based on input from the initial conditions. Since the initialization operation available in a quantum computer can only initialize a qubit to either the |0> or |1> state, initialization to a superposition of states is physically unrealistic. For simulation purposes, however, it may be useful to bypass the initialization process and initialize the quantum computing service QNTM1114 directly. [01040] In some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 provides various quantum data services, including quantum input filtering, quantum output filtering, quantum application filtering, and a quantum database engine. [01041] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum input filtering service 9224. In embodiments, quantum input filtering service 9224 may be configured to select whether to run a model on the quantum computing system 9200 or to run the model on a classic computing system. In some embodiments, quantum input filtering service 9224 may filter data for later modeling on a classic computer. In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may provide input to traditional compute platforms while filtering out unnecessary information from flowing into distributed systems. In some embodiments, the platform 9200 may trust through filtered specified experiences for intelligent agents. [01042] In embodiments, a system in the system of systems may include a model or system for automatically determining, based on a set of inputs, whether to deploy quantum computational or quantum algorithmic resources to an activity, whether to deploy traditional computational resources and algorithms, or whether to apply a hybrid or combination of them. In embodiments, inputs to a model or automation system may include demand information, supply information, financial data, energy cost information, capital costs for computational resources, development costs (such as for algorithms), energy costs, operational costs (including labor and other costs), performance information on available resources (quantum and traditional), and any of the many other data sets that may be used to simulate (such as using any of a wide variety of simulation techniques described herein and/or in the documents incorporated herein by refence) and/or predict the difference in outcome between a quantum-optimized result and a non-quantum- optimized result. A machine learned model (including in a DPANN system) may be trained, such as by deep learning on outcomes or by a data set from human expert decisions, to determine what set of resources to deploy given the input data for a given request. The model may itself be deployed on quantum computational resources and/or may use quantum algorithms, such as quantum annealing, to determine whether, where and when to use quantum systems, conventional systems, and/or hybrids or combinations. [01043] In some embodiments of the invention, the quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum output filtering service 9226. In embodiments, the quantum output filtering service 9226 may be configured to select a solution from solutions of multiple neural networks. For example, multiple neural networks may be configured to generate solutions to a specific problem and the quantum output filtering service 9226 may select the best solution from the set of solutions. [01044] In some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 connects and directs a neural network development or selection process. In this embodiment, the quantum computing system 9200 may directly program the weights of a neural network such that the neural network gives the desired outputs. This quantum-programmed neural network may then operate without the oversight of the quantum computing system 9200 but will still be operating within the expected parameters of the desired computational engine. [01045] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a quantum database engine 9228. In embodiments, the quantum database engine 9228 is configured with in-database quantum algorithm execution. In embodiments, a quantum query language may be employed to query the quantum database engine 9228. In some embodiments, the quantum database engine may have an embedded policy engine 9230 for prioritization and/or allocation of quantum workflows, including prioritization of query workloads, such as based on overall priority as well as the comparative advantage of using quantum computing resources versus others. In embodiments, quantum database engine 9228 may assist with the recognition of entities by establishing a single identity for that is valid across interactions and touchpoints. The quantum database engine 9228 may be configured to perform optimization of data matching and intelligent traditional compute optimization to match individual data elements. The quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum data obfuscation system for obfuscating data. [01046] The quantum computing system 9200 may include, but is not limited to, analog quantum computers, digital computers, and/or error-corrected quantum computers. Analog quantum computers may directly manipulate the interactions between qubits without breaking these actions into primitive gate operations. In embodiments, quantum computers that may run analog machines include, but are not limited to, quantum annealers, adiabatic quantum computers, and direct quantum simulators. The digital computers may operate by carrying out an algorithm of interest using primitive gate operations on physical qubits. Error-corrected quantum computers may refer to a version of gate-based quantum computers made more robust through the deployment of quantum error correction (QEC), which enables noisy physical qubits to emulate stable logical qubits so that the computer behaves reliably for any computation. Further, quantum information products may include, but are not limited to, computing power, quantum predictions, and quantum inventions. [01047] In some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 is configured as an engine that may be used to optimize traditional computers, integrate data from multiple sources into a decision-making process, and the like. The data integration process may involve real-time capture and management of interaction data by a wide range of tracking capabilities, both directly and indirectly related to value chain network activities. In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may be configured to accept cookies, email addresses and other contact data, social media feeds, news feeds, event and transaction log data (including transaction events, network events, computational events, and many others), event streams, results of web crawling, distributed ledger information (including blockchain updates and state information), results from distributed or federated queries of data sources, streams of data from chat rooms and discussion forums, and many others. [01048] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a quantum register having a plurality of qubits. Further, the quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum control system for implementing the fundamental operations on each of the qubits in the quantum register and a control processor for coordinating the operations required. [01049] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 is configured to optimize the pricing of a set of goods or services. In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may utilize quantum annealing to provide optimized pricing. In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may use q-bit based computational methods to optimize pricing. [01050] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 is configured to automatically discover smart contract configuration opportunities. Automated discovery of smart contract configuration opportunities may be based on published APIs to marketplaces and machine learning (e.g., by robotic process automation (RPA) of stakeholder, asset, and transaction types. [01051] In embodiments, quantum-established or other blockchain-enabled smart contracts enable frequent transactions occurring among a network of parties, and manual or duplicative tasks are performed by counterparties for each transaction. The quantum-established or other blockchain acts as a shared database to provide a secure, single source of truth, and smart contracts automate approvals, calculations, and other transacting activities that are prone to lag and error. Smart contracts may use software code to automate tasks, and in some embodiments, this software code may include quantum code that enables extremely sophisticated optimized results. [01052] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 or other system in the system of systems may include a quantum-enabled or other risk identification module that is configured to perform risk identification and/or mitigation. The steps that may be taken by the risk identification module may include, but are not limited to, risk identification, impact assessment, and the like. In some embodiments, the risk identification module determines a risk type from a set of risk types. In embodiments, risks may include, but are not limited to, preventable, strategic, and external risks. Preventable risks may refer to risks that come from within and that can usually be managed on a rule-based level, such as employing operational procedures monitoring and employee and manager guidance and instruction. Strategy risks may refer to those risks that are taken on voluntarily to achieve greater rewards. External risks may refer to those risks that originate outside and are not in the businesses’ control (such as natural disasters). External risks are not preventable or desirable. In embodiments, the risk identification module can determine a predicted cost for many categories of risk. The risk identification module may perform a calculation of current and potential impact on an overall risk profile. In embodiments, the risk identification module may determine the probability and significance of certain events. Additionally, or alternatively, the risk identification module may be configured to anticipate events. [01053] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 or other system of the platform 9200 is configured for graph clustering analysis for anomaly and fraud detection. [01054] In some embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a quantum prediction module, which is configured to generate predictions. Furthermore, the quantum prediction module may construct classical prediction engines to further generate predictions, reducing the need for ongoing quantum calculation costs, which, can be substantial compared to traditional computers. [01055] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum principal component analysis (QPCA) algorithm that may process input vector data if the covariance matrix of the data is efficiently obtainable as a density matrix, under specific assumptions about the vectors given in the quantum mechanical form. It may be assumed that the user has quantum access to the training vector data in a quantum memory. Further, it may be assumed that each training vector is stored in the quantum memory in terms of its difference from the class means. These QPCA algorithms can then be applied to provide for dimension reduction using the calculational benefits of a quantum method. [01056] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 is configured for graph clustering analysis for certified randomness for proof-of-stake blockchains. Quantum cryptographic schemes may make use of quantum mechanics in their designs, which enables such schemes to rely on presumably unbreakable laws of physics for their security. The quantum cryptography schemes may be information-theoretically secure such that their security is not based on any non- fundamental assumptions. In the design of blockchain systems, information-theoretic security is not proven. Rather, classical blockchain technology typically relies on security arguments that make assumptions about the limitations of attackers’ resources. [01057] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 is configured for detecting adversarial systems, such as adversarial neural networks, including adversarial convolutional neural networks. For example, the quantum computing system 9200 or other system of the platform 9200 may be configured to detect fake trading patterns. [01058] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a quantum continual learning (QCL) system 9232, wherein the QCL system 9232 learns continuously and adaptively about the external world, enabling the autonomous incremental development of complex skills and knowledge by updating a quantum model to account for different tasks and data distributions. The QCL system 9232 operates on a realistic time scale where data and/or tasks become available only during operation. Previous quantum states can be superimposed into the quantum engine to provide the capacity for QCL. Because the QCL system 9232 is not constrained to a finite number of variables that can be processed deterministically, it can continuously adapt to future states, producing a dynamic continual learning capability. The QCL system 9232 may have applications where data distributions stay relatively static, but where data is continuously being received. For example, the QCL system 9232 may be used in quantum recommendation applications or quantum anomaly detection systems where data is continuously being received and where the quantum model is continuously refined to provide for various outcomes, predictions, and the like. QCL enables asynchronous alternate training of tasks and only updates the quantum model on the real-time data available from one or more streaming sources at a particular moment. [01059] In embodiments, the QCL system 9232 operates in a complex environment in which the target data keeps changing based on a hidden variable that is not controlled. In embodiments, the QCL system 9232 can scale in terms of intelligence while processing increasing amounts of data and while maintaining a realistic number of quantum states. The QCL system 9232 applies quantum methods to drastically reduce the requirement for storage of historic data while allowing the execution of continuous computations to provide for detail-driven optimal results. In embodiments, a QCL system 9232 is configured for unsupervised streaming perception data since it continually updates the quantum model with new available data. [01060] In embodiments, QCL system 9232 enables multi-modal-multi-task quantum learning. The QCL system 9232 is not constrained to a single stream of perception data but allows for many streams of perception data from different sensors and input modalities. In embodiments, the QCL system 9232 can solve multiple tasks by duplicating the quantum state and executing computations on the duplicate quantum environment. A key advantage to QCL is that the quantum model does not need to be retrained on historic data, as the superposition state holds information relating to all prior inputs. Multi-modal and multi-task quantum learning enhance quantum optimization since it endows quantum machines with reasoning skills through the application of vast amounts of state information. [01061] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 supports quantum superposition, or the ability of a set of states to be overlaid into a single quantum environment. [01062] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 supports quantum teleportation. For example, information may be passed between photons on chipsets even if the photons are not physically linked. [01063] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may include a quantum transfer pricing system. Quantum transfer pricing allows for the establishment of prices for the goods and/or services exchanged between subsidiaries, affiliates, or commonly controlled companies that are part of a larger enterprise and may be used to provide tax savings for corporations. In embodiments, solving a transfer pricing problem involves testing the elasticities of each system in the system of systems with a set of tests. In these embodiments, the testing may be done in periodic batches and then may be iterated. As described herein, transfer pricing may refer to the price that one division in a company charges another division in that company for goods and services. [01064] In embodiments, the quantum transfer pricing system consolidates all financial data related to transfer pricing on an ongoing basis throughout the year for all entities of an organization wherein the consolidation involves applying quantum entanglement to overlay data into a single quantum state. In embodiments, the financial data may include profit data, loss data, data from intercompany invoices (potentially including quantities and prices), and the like. [01065] In embodiments, the quantum transfer pricing system may interface with a reporting system that reports segmented profit and loss, transaction matrices, tax optimization results, and the like based on superposition data. In embodiments, the quantum transfer pricing system automatically generates forecast calculations and assesses the expected local profits for any set of quantum states. [01066] In embodiments, the quantum transfer pricing system may integrate with a simulation system for performing simulations. Suggested optimal values for new product prices can be discussed cross-border via integrated quantum workflows and quantum teleportation communicated states. [01067] In embodiments, quantum transfer pricing may be used to proactively control the distribution of profits within a multi-national enterprise (MNE), for example, during the course of a calendar year, enabling the entities to achieve arms-length profit ranges for each type of transaction. [01068] In embodiments, the QCL system 9232 may use a number of methods to calculate quantum transfer pricing, including the quantum comparable uncontrolled price (QCUP) method, the quantum cost plus percent method (QCPM), the quantum resale price method (QRPM), the quantum transaction net margin method (QTNM), and the quantum profit-split method. [01069] The QCUP method may apply quantum calculations to find comparable transactions made between related and unrelated organizations, potentially through the sharing of quantum superposition data. By comparing the price of goods and/or services in an intercompany transaction with the price used by independent parties through the application of a quantum comparison engine, a benchmark price may be determined. [01070] The QCPM method may compare the gross profit to the cost of sales, thus measuring the cost-plus mark-up (the actual profit earned from the products). Once this mark-up is determined, it should be equal to what a third party would make for a comparable transaction in a comparable context with similar external market conditions. In embodiments, the quantum engine may simulate the external market conditions. [01071] The QRPM method looks at groups of transactions rather than individual transactions and is based on the gross margin or difference between the price at which a product is purchased and the price at which it is sold to a third party. In embodiments, the quantum engine may be applied to calculate the price differences and to record the transactions in the superposition system. [01072] The QTNM method is based on the net profit of a controlled transaction rather than comparable external market pricing. The calculation of the net profit is accomplished through a quantum engine that can consider a wide variety of factors and solve optimally for the product price. The net profit may then be compared with the net profit of independent enterprises, potentially using quantum teleportation. [01073] The quantum profit-split method may be used when two related companies work on the same business venture, but separately. In these applications, the quantum transfer pricing is based on profit. The quantum profit-split method applies quantum calculations to determine how the profit associated with a particular transaction would have been divided between the independent parties involved. [01074] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may leverage one or artificial networks to fulfill the request of a quantum computing client. For example, the quantum computing system 9200 may leverage a set of artificial neural networks to identify patterns in images (e.g., using image data from a liquid lens system), perform binary matrix factorization, perform topical content targeting, perform similarity-based clustering, perform collaborative filtering, perform opportunity mining, or the like. [01075] In embodiments, the system of systems may include a hybrid computing allocation system for prioritization and allocation of quantum computing resources and traditional computing resources. In embodiments, the prioritization and allocation of quantum computing resources and traditional computing resources may be measure-based (e.g., measuring the extent of the advantage of the quantum resource relative to other available resources), cost-based, optimality-based, speed-based, impact-based, or the like. In some embodiments the hybrid computing allocation system is configured to perform time-division multiplexing between the quantum computing system 9200 and a traditional computing system. In embodiments, the hybrid computing allocation system may automatically track and report on the allocation of computational resources, the availability of computational resources, the cost of computational resources, and the like. [01076] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may be leveraged for queue optimization for utilization of quantum computing resources, including context-based queue optimizations. [01077] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may support quantum- computation-aware location-based data caching. [01078] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 may be leveraged for optimization of various system resources in the system of systems, including the optimization of quantum computing resources, traditional computing resources, energy resources, human resources, robotic fleet resources, smart container fleet resources, I/O bandwidth, storage resources, network bandwidth, attention resources, or the like. [01079] The quantum computing system 9200 may be implemented where a complete range of capabilities are available to or as part of any configured service. Configured quantum computing services may be configured with subsets of these capabilities to perform specific predefined function, produce newly defined functions, or various combinations of both. [01080] FIG.93 illustrates quantum computing service request handling 9300 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In embodiments, the request handling 9300 includes inputs 9301, applicability analysis 9303, quantum computing configuration 9305, quantum computing execution 9307, and quantum computing configuration development 9309. In embodiments, inputs 9301 include external data requests 9306, directed quantum request 9302, and general quantum request 9304. In embodiments, applicability analysis 9303 includes quantum set library 9308 and quantum matrix analysis 9310. In embodiments, quantum computing configuration 9305 includes resource and priority analysis 9312 and quantum computing configuration 9314. In embodiments, quantum computing execution 9307 includes asset allocation and execution 9316 and quantum state output 9318. In embodiments, quantum computing configuration development 9309 includes quantum instance training 9320, quantum instance training data 9322, and alternate configuration analysis 9324. [01081] A directed quantum computing request 9302 may come from one or more quantum- aware devices or stack of devices, where the request is for known application configured with specific quantum instance(s), quantum computing engine(s), or other quantum computing resources, and where data associated with the request may be preprocessed or otherwise optimized for use with quantum computing. [01082] A general quantum computing request 9304 may come from any system in the system of systems or configured service, where the requestor has determined that quantum computing resources may provide additional value or other improved outcomes. Improved outcomes may also be suggested by the quantum computing service in association with some form of monitoring and analysis. For a general quantum computing request 9304, input data may not be structured or formatted as necessary for quantum computing. [01083] In embodiments, external data requests 9306 may include any available data that may be necessary for training new quantum instances. The sources of such requests could be public data, sensors, ERP systems, and many others. [01084] Incoming operating requests and associated data may be analyzed using a standardized approach that identifies one or more possible sets of known quantum instances, quantum computing engines, or other quantum computing resources that may be applied to perform the requested operation(s). Potential existing sets may be identified in the quantum set library 9308. [01085] In embodiments, the quantum computing system 9200 includes a quantum computing configuration service 9210. The quantum computing configuration service may work alone or with the intelligence service 9234 to select a best available configuration using a resource and priority analysis that also includes the priority of the requestor. The quantum computing configuration service may provide a solution (YES) or determine that a new configuration is required (NO). [01086] In embodiments, the quantum computing configuration service 9210 includes intelligence service 9234, resource and priority module 9246, quantum set configuration module 9247, and library management module 9248. [01087] In one example, the requested set of quantum computing services may not exist in the quantum set library 9308. In this example, one or more new quantum instances must be developed (trained) with the intelligence service 9234 using available data. In embodiments, alternate configurations may be developed with assistance from the intelligence service 9234 to identify alternate ways to provide all or some of the requested quantum computing services until appropriate resources become available. For example, a quantum/traditional hybrid model may be possible that provides the requested service, but at a slower rate. [01088] In embodiments, alternate configurations may be developed with assistance from the intelligence service 9234 to identify alternate and possibly temporary ways to provide all or some of the requested quantum computing services. For example, a hybrid quantum/traditional model may be possible that provides the requested service, but at a slower rate. This may also include a feedback learning loop to adjust services in real time or to improved stored library elements. [01089] When a quantum computing configuration has been identified and available, it is allocated and programmed for execution and delivery of one or more quantum states (solutions). Biology based systems [01090] FIG.94 shows a thalamus service 9400 and a set of input sensors streaming data from various sources across a system 9402, including a transportation system, as described herein, with its centrally-managed data sources 9404. In embodiments, the thalamus service 9400 filters the into the control system 9402 such that the control system is never overwhelmed by the total volume of information. In embodiments, the thalamus service 9400 provides an information suppression mechanism for information flows within the system. This mechanism monitors all data streams and strips away irrelevant data streams by ensuring that the maximum data flows from all input sensors are always constrained. Input sensors may include but are not limited to sensors associated with one or more vehicles 110, which may include various mechanical, electrical, and software components and systems, such as a powertrain 113, a suspension system 117, a steering system, a braking system, a fuel system, a charging system, seats 128, a combustion engine, an electric vehicle drive train, a transmission 119, a gear set, and the like. The vehicle may have a vehicle user interface 123, which may include a set of interfaces that include a steering system, buttons, levers, touch screen interfaces, audio interfaces, and the like as described throughout this disclosure. [01091] The thalamus service 9400 may be a gateway for all communication that responds to the prioritization of the control system 9402. The control system 9402 may decide to change the prioritization of the data streamed from the thalamus service 9400, for example, during a known fire in an isolated area, and the event may direct the thalamus service 9400 to continue to provide flame sensor information despite the fact that majority of this data is not unusual. The thalamus service 9400 may be an integral part of the overall system communication framework. [01092] In embodiments, the control system 9402 includes the thalamus service 9400, intelligence service 9407, quantum computing service 9426, data interface(s) 9427, and system subsystems 9428. In embodiments, the data sources 9404 include analyses 9422, databases 9423, sensors 9424, and reports 9425. [01093] In embodiments, the thalamus service 9400 includes an intake management system 9406. The intake management system 9406 may be configured to receive and process multiple large datasets by converting them into data streams that are sized and organized for subsequent use by a central control system 9402 operating within one or more systems. For example, a robot may include vision and sensing systems that are used by its central control system 9402 to identify and move through an environment in real time. The intake management system 9406 can facilitate robot decision-making by parsing, filtering, classifying, or otherwise reducing the size and increasing the utility of multiple large datasets that would otherwise overwhelm the central control system 9402. In embodiments, the intake management system 9406 may include an intake controller 9408 that works with an intelligence system 9436 to evaluate incoming data and take actions-based evaluation results. Evaluations and actions may include specific instruction sets received by the thalamus service 9400, for example the use of a set of specific compression and prioritization tools stipulated within a “Networking” library module. In another example, thalamus service inputs may direct the use of specific filtering and suppression techniques. In a third example, thalamus service inputs may stipulate data filtering associated with an area of interest such as a certain type of financial transaction. The intake management system is also configured to recognize and manage datasets that are in a vectorized format such as PCMP, where they may be passed directly to central control, or alternatively deconstructed and processed separately. The intake management system 9406 may include a learning module 9430 that receives data from external sources that enables improvement and creation of application and data management library modules. In some cases, the intake management system may request external data to augment existing datasets. [01094] In embodiments, the intake management system 9406 includes intake learning module 9430, intake controller 9408, intake application library 9432, intake data management system 9434, intelligence system 9436, and configured thalamus parameters 9438. In embodiments, the intake application library 9432 includes networking 9440 and security 9442. In embodiments, the intake data management system 9434 includes prioritizing 9450, area focus 9452, formatting 9454, filtering 9456, suppression 9458, and combining 9460. [01095] In embodiments, the control system 9402 may direct the thalamus service 9400 to alter its filtering to provide more input from a set of specific sources. This indication more input is handled by the thalamus service 9400 by suppressing other information flows based to constrain the total data flows to within a volume the central control system can handle. [01096] The thalamus service 9400 can operate by suppressing data based on several different factors, and in embodiments, the default factor maybe unusualness of the data. This unusualness is a constant monitoring of all input sensors and determining the unusualness of the data. [01097] In some embodiments, the thalamus service 9400 may suppress data based on geospatial factors. The thalamus service 9400 may be aware of the geospatial location of all sensors and is able to look for unusual patterns in data based on geospatial context and suppress data accordingly. [01098] In some embodiments, the thalamus service 9400 may suppress data based on temporal factors. Data can be suppressed temporally, for example, if the cadence of the data can be reduced such that the overall data stream is filtered to level that can be handled by the central processing unit. [01099] In some embodiments, the thalamus service 9400 may suppress data based on contextual factors. In embodiments, context-based filtering is a filtering event in which the thalamus service 9400 is aware of some context-based event. In this context the filtering is made to suppress information flows not relating to the data from the event. [01100] In embodiments, the control system 9402 can override the thalamus filtering and decide to focus on a completely different area for any specific reason. [01101] In embodiments, the system may include a vector module. In embodiments, the vector module may be used to convert data to a vectorized format. In many examples, the conversion of a long sequence of oftentimes similar numbers into a vector, which may include short term future predictions, makes the communication both smaller in size and forward looking in nature. In embodiments, forecast methods may include: moving average; weighted moving average; Kalman filtering; exponential smoothing; autoregressive moving average (ARMA) (forecasts depend on past values of the variable being forecast, and on past prediction errors); autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) (ARMA on the period-to-period change in the forecasted variable); extrapolation; linear prediction; trend estimation (predicting the variable as a linear or polynomial function of time); growth curve (e.g., statistics); and recurrent neural network. [01102] In embodiments, the system may include a predictive model communication protocol (PMCP) system to support vector-based predictive models and a predictive model communication protocol (PMCP). Under the PMCP protocol, instead of traditional streams where individual data items are transmitted, vectors representing how the data is changing or what is the forecast trend in the data is communicated. The PMCP system may transmit actual model parameters and receiving units such that edge devices can apply the vector-based predictive models to determine future states. For example, each automated device in a network could train a regression model or a neural network, constantly fitting the data streams to current input data. All automated devices leveraging the PMCP system would be able to react in advance of events actually happening, rather than waiting for depletion of inventory for an item, for example, to occur. Continuing the example, the stateless automated device can react to the forecast future state and make the necessary adjustments, such as ordering more of the item. [01103] In embodiments, the PMCP system includes a PMCP device interface 9410. In embodiments, the PMCP device interface 9410 relates to PMCP API 9411, intelligence system 9412, PMCP controller 9413, classification 9414, behavior analysis 9415, prediction 9416, augmentation 9417, networking module 9418, security module 9419, ETL interface 9420, and PMCP database 9421. [01104] In embodiments, the PMCP system enables communicating vectorized information and algorithms that allow vectorized information to be processed to refine the known information regarding a set of probability-based states. For example, the PMCP system may support communicating the vectorized information gathered at each point of a sensor reading but also adding algorithms that allow the information to be processed. Applied in an environment with large numbers of sensors with different accuracies and reliabilities, the probabilistic vector-based mechanism of the PMCP system allows large numbers, if not all, data streams to combine to produce refined models representing the current state, past states and likely future states of goods. Approximation methods may include importance sampling, and the resulting algorithm is known as a particle filter, condensation algorithm, or Monte Carlo localization. [01105] In embodiments, the vector-based communication of the PMCP system allows future security events to be anticipated, for example, by simple edge node devices that are running in a semi-autonomous way. The edge devices may be responsible for building a set of forecast models showing trends in the data. The parameters of this set of forecast models may be transmitted using the PMCP system. [01106] Security systems are constantly looking for vectors showing change in state, as unusual events tend to trigger multiple vectors to show unusual patterns. In a security setting, seeing multiple simultaneous unusual vectors may trigger escalation and a response by, for example, the control system. In addition, one of the major areas of communication security concern is around the protection of stored data, and in a vector-based system data does not need to be stored, and so the risk of data loss is simply removed. [01107] In embodiments, PMCP data can be directly stored in a queryable database where the actual data is reconstructed dynamically in response to a query. In some embodiments, the PMCP data streams can be used to recreate the fine-grained data so they become part of an Extract Transform and Load (ETL) process. [01108] In embodiments where there are edge devices with very limited capacities, additional edge communication devices can be added to convert the data into PMCP format. For example, to protect distributed medical equipment from hacking attempts many manufacturers will choose to not connect the device to any kind of network. To overcome this limitation, the medical equipment may be monitored using sensors, such as cameras, sound monitors, voltage detectors for power usage, chemical sniffers, and the like. Functional unit learning and other data techniques may be used to determine the actual usage of the medical equipment detached from the network functional unit. [01109] Communication using vectorized data allows for a constant view of likely future states. This allows the future state to be communicated, allowing various entities to respond ahead of future state requirements without needing access to the fine-grained data. [01110] In embodiments, the PMCP protocol can be used to communicate relevant information about production levels and future trends in production. This PMCP data feed, with its built-in data obfuscation allows real contextual information about production levels to be shared with consumers, regulators, and other entities without requiring sensitive data to be shared. For example, when choosing to purchase a new car, if there is an upcoming shortage of red paint then the consumer could be encouraged to choose a different color in order to maintain a desired delivery time. PMCP and vector data enables simple data informed interactive systems that user can apply without having to build enormously complex big data engines. As an example, an upstream manufacturer has an enormously complex task of coordinating many downstream consumption points. Through the use of PMCP, the manufacturer is able to provide real information to consumers without the need to store detailed data and build complex models. [01111] In embodiments, edge device units may communicate via the PMCP system to show direction of movement and likely future positions. For example, a moving robot can communicate its likely track of future movement. [01112] In embodiments, the PMCP system enables visual representations of vector-based data (e.g., via a user interface), highlighting of areas of concern without the need to process enormous volumes of data. The representation allows for the display of many monitored vector inputs. The user interface can then display information relating to the key items of interest, specifically vectors showing areas of unusual or troublesome movement. This mechanism allows sophisticated models that are built at the edge device edge nodes to feed into end user communications in a visually informative way. [01113] Functional units produce a constant stream of “boring” data. By changing from producing data, to being monitored for problems, issues with the logistical modules are highlighted without the need for scrutiny of fine-grained data. In embodiments, the vectorizing process could constantly manage a predictive model showing future state. In the context of maintenance, these changes to the parameters in the predictive model are in and of themselves predictors of change in operational parameters, potentially indicating the need for maintenance. In embodiments, functional areas are not always designed to be connected, but by allowing for an external device to virtually monitor devices, functional areas that do not allow for connectivity can become part of the information flow in the goods. This concept extends to allow functional areas that have limited connectivity to be monitored effectively by embellishing their data streams with vectorized monitored information. Placing an automated device in the proximity of the functional unit that has limited or no connectivity allows capture of information from the devices without the requirement of connectivity. There is also potential to add training data capture functional units for these unconnected or limitedly connected functional areas. These training data capture functional units are typically quite expensive and can provide high quality monitoring data, which is used as an input into the proximity edge device monitoring device to provide data for supervised learning algorithms. [01114] Oftentimes, locations are laden with electrical interference, causing fundamental challenges with communications. The traditional approach of streaming all the fine-grained data is dependent on the completeness of the data stream. For example, if an edge device was to go offline for 10 minutes, the streaming data and its information would be lost. With vectorized communication, the offline unit continues to refine the predictive model until the moment when it reconnects, which allows the updated model to be transmitted via the PMCP system. [01115] In embodiments, systems and devices may be based on the PMCP protocol. For example, cameras and vision systems (e.g., liquid lens systems), user devices, sensors, robots, smart containers, and the like may use PMCP and/or vector-based communication. By using vector-based cameras, for example, only information relating to the movement of items is transmitted. This reduces the data volume and by its nature filters information about static items, showing only the changes in the images and focusing the data communication on elements of change. The overall shift in communication to communication of change is similar to how the human process of sight functions, where stationary items are not even communicated to the higher levels of the brain. [01116] Radio Frequency Identification allows for massive volumes of mobile tags to be tracked in real-time. In embodiments, the movement of the tags may be communicated as vector information via the PMCP protocol, as this form of communication is naturally suited to handing information regarding the location of tag within the goods. Adding the ability to show future state of the location using predictive models that can use paths of prior movement allows the goods to change the fundamental communication mechanism to one where units consuming data streams are consuming information about the likely future state of the goods. In embodiments, each tagged item may be represented as a probability-based location matrix showing the likely probability of the tagged item being at a position in space. The communication of movement shows the transformation of the location probability matrix to a new set of probabilities. This probabilistic locational overview provides for constant modeling of areas of likely intersection of moving units and allows for refinement of the probabilistic view of the location of items. Moving to a vector-based probability matrix allows units to constantly handle the inherent uncertainty in the measurement of status of various items, entities, and the like. In embodiments, status includes, but is not limited to, location, temperature, movement and power consumption. [01117] In embodiments, continuous connectivity is not required for continuous monitoring of sensor inputs in a PMCP-based communication system. For example, a mobile robotic device with a plurality of sensors will continue to build models and predictions of data streams while disconnected from the network, and upon reconnection, the updated models are communicated. Furthermore, other systems or devices that use input from the monitored system or device can apply the best known, typically last communicated, vector predictions to continue to maintain a probabilistic understanding of the states of the goods. [01118] FIG.95 is a simplified thalamus service workflow 9500 according to some embodiments. In the example provided, the intake controller 9408 receives sensors, external systems, and process data 9502 and input from preconfigured PMCP devices with local processing 9504. The decision 9506 related to PMCP proceeds to decision 9508 when the decision is “no” and proceeds to decision 9510 when the decision is “yes.” If the data is not reduced as decided in decision 9508, the workflow proceeds to intake management system 9406. If the data is reduced according to decision 9508, the workflow 9500 proceeds to decision 9510. When the decision 9510 is yes regarding a PMCP consumer, the workflow 9500 proceeds to PMCP device interface 9512. When the decision 9510 is no regarding a PMCP consumer, the workflow 9500 proceeds to ETL (extract transform load) process from PMCP data base 9514. The output relates to downstream system of systems data consumer processing 9516. Dual Process Artificial Neural Network [01119] In embodiments, the transportation system includes a dual process artificial neural network (DPANN) system 9500. The DPANN system 9500 includes an artificial neural network (ANN) having behaviors and operational processes (such as decision-making) that are products of a training system and a retraining system. The training system is configured to perform automatic, trained execution of ANN operations. The retraining system performs effortful, analytical, intentional retraining of the ANN, such as based on one or more relevant aspects of the ANN, such as memory, one or more input data sets (including time information with respect to elements in such data sets), one or more goals or objectives (including ones that may vary dynamically, such as periodically and/or based on contextual changes, such as ones relating to the usage context of the ANN), and/or others. In cases involving memory-based retraining, the memory may include original/historical training data and refined training data. The DPANN system 9500 includes a dual process learning function (DPLF) configured to manage and perform an ongoing data retention process. The DPLF (including, where applicable, memory management process) facilitate retraining and refining of behavior of the ANN. The DPLF provides a framework by which the ANN creates outputs such as predictions, classifications, recommendations, conclusions and/or other outputs based on a historic inputs, new inputs, and new outputs (including outputs configured for specific use cases, including ones determined by parameters of the context of utilization (which may include performance parameters such as latency parameters, accuracy parameters, consistency parameters, bandwidth utilization parameters, processing capacity utilization parameters, prioritization parameters, energy utilization parameters, and many others). [01120] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 associated with the transportation system may store training data, thereby allowing for constant retraining based on results of decisions, predictions, and/or other operations of the ANN, as well as allowing for analysis of training data upon the outputs of the ANN. The management of entities stored in the memory allows the construction and execution of new models, such as ones that may be processed, executed or otherwise performed by or under management of the training system. The DPANN system 9500 uses instances of the memory to validate actions (e.g., in a manner similar to the thinking of a biological neural network (including retrospective or self-reflective thinking about whether actions that were undertaken under a given situation where optimal) and perform training of the ANN, including training that intentionally feeds the ANN with appropriate sets of memories (i.e., ones that produce favorable outcomes given the performance requirements for the ANN). [01121] In embodiments, the DPLF may be or include the continued process retention of one or more training datasets and/or memories stored in the memory over time. The DPLF thereby allows the ANN to apply existing neural functions and draw upon sets of past events (including ones that are intentionally varied and/or curated for distinct purposes), such as to frame understanding of and behavior within present, recent, and/or new scenarios, including in simulations, during training processes, and in fully operational deployments of the ANN. The DPLF may provide the ANN with a framework by which the ANN may analyze, evaluate, and/or manage data, such as data related to the past, present and future. As such, the DPLF plays a crucial role in training and retraining the ANN via the training system and the retraining system. [01122] In embodiments, the DPLF is configured to perform a dual-process operation to manage existing training processes and is also configured to manage and/or perform new training processes, i.e., retraining processes. In embodiments, each instance of the ANN is trained via the training system and configured to be retrained via the retraining system. The ANN encodes training and/or retraining datasets, stores the datasets, and retrieves the datasets during both training via the training system and retraining via the retraining system. The DPANN system 9500 may recognize whether a dataset (the term dataset in this context optionally including various subsets, supersets, combinations, permutations, elements, metadata, augmentations, or the like, relative to a base dataset used for training or retraining), storage activity, processing operation and/or output, has characteristics that natively favor the training system versus the retraining system based on its respective inputs, processing (e.g., based on its structure, type, models, operations, execution environment, resource utilization, or the like) and/or outcomes (including outcome types, performance requirements (including contextual or dynamic requirements), and the like. For example, the DPANN system 9500 may determine that poor performance of the training system on a classification task may indicate a novel problem for which the training of the ANN was not adequate (e.g., in type of data set, nature of input models and/or feedback, quantity of training data, quality of tagging or labeling, quality of supervision, or the like), for which the processing operations of the ANN are not well-suited (e.g., where they are prone to known vulnerabilities due to the type of neural network used, the type of models used, etc.), and that may be solved by engaging the retraining system to retrain the model to teach the model to learn to solve the new classification problem (e.g., by feeding it many more labeled instances of correctly classified items). With periodic or continuous evaluation of the performance of the ANN, the DPANN system may subsequently determine that highly stable performance of the ANN (such as where only small improvements of the ANN occur over many iterations of retraining by the retraining system) indicates readiness for the training system to replace the retraining system (or be weighted more favorably where both are involved). Over longer periods of time, cycles of varying performance may emerge, such as where a series of novel problems emerge, such that the retraining system of the DPANN is serially engaged, as needed, to retrain the ANN and/or to augment the ANN by providing a second source of outputs (which may be fused or combined with ANN outputs to provide a single result (with various weightings across them), or may be provided in parallel, such as enabling comparison, selection, averaging, or context- or situation-specific application of the respective outputs). [01123] In embodiments, the ANN is configured to learn new functions in conjunction with the collection of data according to the dual-process training of the ANN via the training system and the retraining system. The DPANN system 9500 performs analysis of the ANN via the training system and performs initial training of the ANN such that the ANN gains new internal functions (or internal functions are subtracted or modified, such as where existing functions are not contributing to favorable outcomes). After the initial training, the DPANN system 9500 performs retraining of the ANN via the retraining system. To perform the retraining, the retraining system evaluates the memory and historic processing of the ANN to construct targeted DPLF processes for retraining. The DPLF processes may be specific to identified scenarios. The ANN processes can run in parallel with the DPLF processes. By way of example, the ANN may function to operate a particular make and model of a self-driving car after the initial training by the training system. The DPANN system 9500 may perform retraining of the functions of the ANN via the retraining system, such as to allow the ANN to operate a different make and model of car (such as one with different cameras, accelerometers and other sensors, different physical characteristics, different performance requirements, and the like), or even a different kind of vehicle, such as a bicycle or a spaceship. [01124] In embodiments, as quality of outputs and/or operations of the ANN improves, and as long as the performance requirements and the context of utilization for the ANN remain fairly stable, performing the dual-process training process can become a decreasingly demanding process. As such, the DPANN system 9500 may determine that fewer neurons of the ANN are required to perform operations and/or processes of the ANN, that performance monitoring can be less intensive (such as with longer intervals between performance checks), and/or that the retraining is no longer necessary (at least for a period of time, such as until a long-term maintenance period arrives and/or until there are significant shifts in context of utilization). As the ANN continues to improve upon existing functions and/or add new functions via the dual- process training process, the ANN may perform other, at times more “intellectually-demanding” (e.g., retraining intensive) tasks simultaneously. For example, utilizing dual process-learned knowledge of a function or process being trained, the ANN can solve an unrelated complex problem or make a retraining decision simultaneously. The retraining may include supervision, such as where an agent (e.g., human supervisor or intelligent agent) directs the ANN to a retraining objective (e.g., “master this new function”) and provides a set of training tasks and feedback functions (such as supervisory grading) for the retraining. In-embodiments, the ANN can be used to organize the supervision, training and retraining of other dual process-trained ANNs, to seed such training or retraining, or the like. [01125] In embodiments, one or more behaviors and operational processes (such as decision- making) of the ANN may be products of training and retraining processes facilitated by the training system and the retraining system, respectively. The training system may be configured to perform automatic training of ANN, such as by continuously adding additional instances of training data as it is collected by or from various data sources. The retraining system may be configured to perform effortful, analytical, intentional retraining of the ANN, such as based on memory (e.g., stored training data or refined training data) and/or optionally based on reasoning or other factors. For example, in a deployment management context, the training system may be associated with a standard response by the ANN, while the retraining system may implement DPLF retraining and/or network adaptation of the ANN. In some cases, retraining of the ANN beyond the factory, or “out-of-the-box,” training level may involve more than retraining by the retraining system. Successful adjustment of the ANN by one or more network adaptations may be dependent on the operation of one or more network adjustments of the training system. [01126] In embodiments, the training system may facilitate fast operating by and training of the ANN by applying existing neural functions of the ANN based on training of the ANN with previous datasets. Standard operational activities of the ANN that may draw heavily on the training system may include one or more of the methods, processes, workflows, systems, or the like described throughout this disclosure and the documents incorporated herein, such as, without limitation: defined functions within networking (such as discovering available networks and connections, establishing connections in networks, provisioning network bandwidth among devices and systems, routing data within networks, steering traffic to available network paths, load balancing across networking resources, and many others); recognition and classification (such as of images, text, symbols, objects, video content, music and other audio content, speech content, and many others); spoken words; prediction of states and events (such as prediction of failure modes of machines or systems, prediction of events within workflows, predictions of behavior in shopping and other activities, and many others); control (such as controlling autonomous or semi-autonomous systems, automated agents (such as automated call-center operations, chat bots, and the like) and others); and/or optimization and recommendation (such as for products, content, decisions, and many others). ANNs may also be suitable for training datasets for scenarios that only require output. The standard operational activities may not require the ANN to actively analyze what is being asked of the ANN beyond operating on well-defined data inputs, to calculate well-defined outputs for well-defined use cases. The operations of the training system and/or the retraining system may be based on one or more historic data training datasets and may use the parameters of the historic data training datasets to calculate results based on new input values and may be performed with small or no alterations to the ANN or its input types. In embodiments, an instance of the training system can be trained to classify whether the ANN is capable of performing well in a given situation, such as by recognizing whether an image or sound being classified by the ANN is of a type that has historically been classified with a high accuracy (e.g., above a threshold). [01127] In embodiments, network adaptation of the ANN by one or both of the training system and the retraining system may include a number of defined network functions, knowledge, and intuition-like behavior of the ANN when subjected to new input values. In such embodiments, the retraining system may apply the new input values to the DPLF system to adjust the functional response of the ANN, thereby performing retraining of the ANN. The DPANN system 9500 may determine that retraining the ANN via network adjustment is necessary when, for example, without limitation, functional neural networks are assigned activities and assignments that require the ANN to provide a solution to a novel problem, engage in network adaptation or other higher- order cognitive activity, apply a concept outside of the domain in which the DPANN was originally designed, support a different context of deployment (such as where the use case, performance requirements, available resources, or other factors have changed), or the like. The ANN can be trained to recognize where the retraining system is needed, such as by training the ANN to recognize poor performance of the training system, high variability of input data sets relative to the historical data sets used to train the training system, novel functional or performance requirements, dynamic changes in the use case or context, or other factors. The ANN may apply reasoning to assess performance and provide feedback to the retraining system. The ANN may be trained and/or retrained to perform intuitive functions, optionally including by a combinatorial or re-combinatorial process (e.g., including genetic programming wherein inputs (e.g., data sources), processes/functions (e.g., neural network types and structures), feedback, and outputs, or elements thereof, are arranged in various permutations and combinations and the ANN is tested in association with each (whether in simulations or live deployments), such as in a series of rounds, or evolutionary steps, to promote favorable variants until a preferred ANN, or preferred set of ANNs is identified for a given scenario, use case, or set of requirements). This may include generating a set of input “ideas” (e.g., combinations of different conclusions about cause-and-effect in a diagnostic process) for processing by the retraining system and subsequent training and/or by an explicit reasoning process, such as a Bayesian reasoning process, a casuistic or conditional reasoning process, a deductive reasoning process, an inductive reasoning process, or others (including combinations of the above) as described in this disclosure or the documents incorporated herein by reference. [01128] Referring to Figure 96, in embodiments, the DPLF may perform an encoding process of the DPLF to process datasets into a stored form for future use, such as retraining of the ANN by the retraining system. The encoding process enables datasets to be taken in, understood, and altered by the DPLF to better support storage in and usage from the memory. The DPLF may apply current functional knowledge and/or reasoning to consolidate new input values. In the example provided, data is taken in as data input 9502. The memory can include short-term memory (STM) 9504, long-term memory (LTM) 9506, or a combination thereof. The datasets may be stored in one or both of the STM and the LTM. The STM may be implemented by the application of specialized behaviors inside the ANN (such as recurrent neural network, which may be gated or un-gated, or long-term short-term neural networks). The LTM may be implemented by storing scenarios, associated data, and/or unprocessed data that can be applied to the discovery of new scenarios. The encoding process may include processing and/or storing, for example, visual encoding data (e.g., processed through a Convolution Neural Network), acoustic sensor encoding data (e.g., how something sounds, speech encoding data (e.g., processed through a deep neural network (DNN), optionally including for phoneme recognition), semantic encoding data of words, such to determine semantic meaning, e.g., by using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM); and/or movement and/or tactile encoding data (such as operation on vibration/accelerometer sensor data, touch sensor data, positional or geolocation data, and the like). While datasets may enter the DPLF system through one of these modes, the form in which the datasets are stored may differ from an original form of the datasets and may pass-through neural processing engines to be encoded into compressed and/or context-relevant format. For example, an unsupervised instance of the ANN can be used to learn the historic data into a compressed format. [01129] In embodiments, the encoded datasets are retained within the DPLF system. Encoded datasets are first stored in short-term DPLF, i.e., STM. For example, sensor datasets may be primarily stored in STM, and may be kept in STM through constant repetition. The datasets stored in the STM are active and function as a kind of immediate response to new input values. The DPANN system 9500 may remove datasets from STM in response to changes in data streams due to, for example, running out of space in STM as new data is imported, processed and/or stored. For example, it is viable for short-term DPLF to only last between 15 and 30 seconds. STM may only store small amounts of data typically embedded inside the ANN. [01130] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may measure attention based on utilization of the training system, of the DPANN system 9500 as a whole, and/or the like, such as by consuming various indicators of attention to and/or utilization of outputs from the ANN and transmitting such indicators to the ANN in response (similar to a “moment of recognition” in the brain where attention passes over something and the cognitive system says “aha!”). In embodiments, attention can be measured by the sheer amount of the activity of one or both of the systems on the data stream. In embodiments, a system using output from the ANN can explicitly indicate attention, such as by an operator directing the ANN to pay attention to a particular activity (e.g., to respond to a diagnosed problem, among many other possibilities). The DPANN system 9500 may manage data inputs to facilitate measures of attention, such as by prompting and/or calculating greater attention to data that has high inherent variability from historical patterns (e.g., in rates of change, departure from norm, etc.), data indicative of high variability in historical performance (such as data having similar characteristics to data sets involved in situations where the ANN performed poorly in training), or the like. [01131] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may retain encoded datasets within the DPLF system according to and/or as part of one or more storage processes. The DPLF system may store the encoded datasets in LTM as necessary after the encoded datasets have been stored in STM and determined to be no longer necessary and/or low priority for a current operation of the ANN, training process, retraining process, etc. The LTM may be implemented by storing scenarios, and the DPANN system 9500 may apply associated data and/or unprocessed data to the discovery of new scenarios. For example, data from certain processed data streams, such as semantically encoded datasets, may be primarily stored in LTM. The LTM may also store image (and sensor) datasets in encoded form, among many other examples. [01132] In embodiments, the LTM may have relatively high storage capacity, and datasets stored within LTM may, in some scenarios, be effectively stored indefinitely. The DPANN system 9500 may be configured to remove datasets from the LTM, such as by passing LTM data through a series of memory structures that have increasingly long retrieval periods or increasingly high threshold requirements to trigger utilization (similar to where a biological brain “thinks very hard” to find precedent to deal with a challenging problem), thereby providing increased salience of more recent or more frequently used memories while retaining the ability to retrieve (with more time/effort) older memories when the situation justifies more comprehensive memory utilization. As such, the DPANN system 9500 may arrange datasets stored in the LTM on a timeline, such as by storing the older memories (measured by time of origination and/or latest time of utilization) on a separate and/or slower system, by penalizing older memories by imposing artificial delays in retrieval thereof, and/or by imposing threshold requirements before utilization (such as indicators of high demand for improved results). Additionally or alternatively, LTM may be clustered according to other categorization protocols, such as by topic. For example, all memories proximal in time to a periodically recognized person may be clustered for retrieval together, and/or all memories that were related to a scenario may be clustered for retrieval together. [01133] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may modularize and link LTM datasets, such as in a catalog, a hierarchy, a cluster, a knowledge graph (directed/acyclic or having conditional logic), or the like, such as to facilitate search for relevant memories. For example, all memory modules that have instances involving a person, a topic, an item, a process, a linkage of n-tuples of such things (e.g., all memory modules that involve a selected pair of entities), etc. The DPANN system 9500 may select sub-graphs of the knowledge graph for the DPLF to implement in one or more domain-specific and/or task-specific uses, such as training a model to predict robotic or human agent behavior by using memories that relate to a particular set of robotic or human agents, and/or similar robotic or human agents. The DPLF system may cache frequently used modules for different speed and/or probability of utilization. High value modules (e.g., ones with high-quality outcomes, performance characteristics, or the like) can be used for other functions, such as selection/training of STM keep/forget processes. [01134] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may modularize and link LTM datasets, such as in various ways noted above, to facilitate search for relevant memories. For example, memory modules that have instances involving a person, a topic, an item, a process, a linkage of n-tuples of such things (such as all memory modules that involve a selected pair of entities), or all memories associated with a scenario, etc., may be linked and searched. The DPANN system 9500 may select subsets of the scenario (e.g., sub-graphs of a knowledge graph) for the DPLF for a domain-specific and/or task-specific use, such as training a model to predict robotic or human agent behavior by using memories that relate to a particular set of robotic or human agents and/or similar robotic or human agents. Frequently used modules or scenarios can be cached for different speed/probability of utilization, or other performance characteristics. High value modules or scenarios (ones where high-quality outcomes results) can be used for other functions, such as selection/training of STM keep/forget processes, among others. [01135] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may perform LTM planning, such as to find a procedural course of action for a declaratively described system to reach its goals while optimizing overall performance measures. The DPANN system 9500 may perform LTM planning when, for example,^a problem can be described in a declarative way, the DPANN system 9500 has domain knowledge that should not be ignored, there is a structure to a problem that makes the problem difficult for pure learning techniques, and/or the ANN needs to be trained and/or retrained to be able to explain a particular course of action taken by the DPANN system 9500. In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may be applied to a plan recognition problem, i.e., the inverse of a planning problem: instead of a goal state, one is given a set of possible goals, and the objective in plan recognition is to find out which goal was being achieved and how. [01136] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may facilitate LTM scenario planning by users to develop long-term plans. For example, LTM scenario planning for risk management use cases may place added emphasis on identifying extreme or unusual, yet possible, risks and opportunities that are not usually considered in daily operations, such as ones that are outside a bell curve or normal distribution, but that in fact occur with greater-than-anticipated frequency in “long tail” or “fat tail” situations, such as involving information or market pricing processes, among many others. LTM scenario planning may involve analyzing relationships between forces (such as social, technical, economic, environmental, and/or political trends) in order to explain the current situation, and/or may include providing scenarios for potential future states. [01137] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may facilitate LTM scenario planning for predicting and anticipating possible alternative futures along with the ability to respond to the predicted states. The LTM planning may be induced from expert domain knowledge or projected from current scenarios, because many scenarios (such as ones involving results of combinatorial processes that result in new entities or behaviors) have never yet occurred and thus cannot be projected by probabilistic means that rely entirely on historical distributions. The DPANN system 9500 may prepare the application to LTM to generate many different scenarios, exploring a variety of possible futures to the DPLM for both expected and surprising futures. This may be facilitated or augmented by genetic programming and reasoning techniques as noted above, among others. [01138] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may implement LTM scenario planning to facilitate transforming risk management into a plan recognition problem and apply the DPLF to generate potential solutions. LTM scenario induction addresses several challenges inherent to forecast planning. LTM scenario induction may be applicable when, for example, models that are used for forecasting have inconsistent, missing, unreliable observations; when it is possible to generate not just one but many future plans; and/or when LTM domain knowledge can be captured and encoded to improve forecasting (e.g., where domain experts tend to outperform available computational models). LTM scenarios can be focused on applying LTM scenario planning for risk management. LTM scenarios planning may provide situational awareness of relevant risk drivers by detecting emerging storylines. In addition, LTM scenario planning can generate future scenarios that allow DPLM, or operators, to reason about, and plan for, contingencies and opportunities in the future. [01139] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may be configured to perform a retrieval process via the DPLF to access stored datasets of the ANN. The retrieval process may determine how well the ANN performs with regard to assignments designed to test recall. For example, the ANN may be trained to perform a controlled vehicle parking operation, whereby the autonomous vehicle returns to a designated spot, or the exit, by associating a prior visit via retrieval of data stored in the LTM. The datasets stored in the STM and the LTM may be retrieved by differing processes. The datasets stored in the STM may be retrieved in response to specific input and/or by order in which the datasets are stored, e.g., by a sequential list of numbers. The datasets stored in the LTM may be retrieved through association and/or matching of events to historic activities, e.g., through complex associations and indexing of large datasets. [01140] In embodiments, the DPANN system 9500 may implement scenario monitoring as at least a part of the retrieval process. A scenario may provide context for contextual decision- making processes. In embodiments, scenarios may involve explicit reasoning (such as cause- and-effect reasoning, Bayesian, casuistic, conditional logic, or the like, or combinations thereof) the output of which declares what LTM-stored data is retrieved (e.g., a timeline of events being evaluated and other timelines involving events that potentially follow a similar cause-and-effect pattern). For example, diagnosis of a failure of a machine or workflow may retrieve historical sensor data as well as LTM data on various failure modes of that type of machine or workflow (and/or a similar process involving a diagnosis of a problem state or condition, recognition of an event or behavior, a failure mode (e.g., a financial failure, contract breach, or the like), or many others). [01141] The background description is presented simply for context, and is not necessarily well- understood, routine, or conventional. Further, the background description is not an admission of what does or does not qualify as prior art. In fact, some or all of the background description may be work attributable to the named inventors that is otherwise unknown in the art. [01142] Physical (such as spatial and/or electrical) and functional relationships between elements (for example, between modules, circuit elements, semiconductor layers, etc.) are described using various terms. Unless explicitly described as being “direct,” when a relationship between first and second elements is described, that relationship encompasses both (i) a direct relationship where no other intervening elements are present between the first and second elements and (ii) an indirect relationship where one or more intervening elements are present between the first and second elements. [01143] Example relationship terms include “adjoining,” “transmitting,” “receiving,” “connected,” “engaged,” “coupled,” “adjacent,” “next to,” “on top of,” “above,” “below,” “abutting,” and “disposed.” [01144] The detailed description includes specific examples for illustration only, and not to limit the disclosure or its applicability. The examples are not intended to be an exhaustive list, but instead simply demonstrate possession by the inventors of the full scope of the currently presented and envisioned future claims. Variations, combinations, and equivalents of the examples are within the scope of the disclosure. [01145] No language in the specification should be construed as indicating that any non-claimed element is essential or critical to the practice of the disclosure. [01146] The term “exemplary” simply means “example” and does not indicate a best or preferred example. [01147] The term “set” does not necessarily exclude the empty set — in other words, in some circumstances a “set” may have zero elements. The term “non-empty set” may be used to indicate exclusion of the empty set — that is, a non-empty set must have one or more elements. [01148] The term “subset” does not necessarily require a proper subset. In other words, a “subset” of a first set may be coextensive with (equal to) the first set. Further, the term “subset” does not necessarily exclude the empty set — in some circumstances a “subset” may have zero elements. [01149] The phrase “at least one of A, B, and C” should be construed to mean a logical (A OR B OR C), using a non-exclusive logical OR, and should not be construed to mean “at least one of A, at least one of B, and at least one of C.” [01150] The use of the terms “a,” “an,” “the,” and similar referents in the context of describing the disclosure and claims encompasses both the singular and the plural, unless contradicted explicitly or by context. [01151] Unless otherwise specified, the terms “comprising,” “having,” “with,” “including,” and “containing,” and their variants, are open-ended terms, meaning “including, but not limited to.” [01152] Each publication referenced in this disclosure, including foreign and domestic patent applications and patents, is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. [01153] Although each of the embodiments is described above as having certain features, any one or more of those features described with respect to any embodiment of the disclosure can be implemented in and/or combined with features of any of the other embodiments, even if that combination is not explicitly described. In other words, the described embodiments are not mutually exclusive, and permutations of multiple embodiments remain within the scope of this disclosure. [01154] One or more elements (for example, steps within a method, instructions, actions, or operations) may be executed in a different order (and/or concurrently) without altering the principles of the present disclosure. [01155] Unless technically infeasible, elements described as being in series may be implemented partially or fully in parallel. Similarly, unless technically infeasible, elements described as being in parallel may be implemented partially or fully in series. [01156] While the disclosure describes structures corresponding to claimed elements, those elements do not necessarily invoke a means plus function interpretation unless they explicitly use the signifier “means for.” [01157] While the drawings divide elements of the disclosure into different functional blocks or action blocks, these divisions are for illustration only. According to the principles of the present disclosure, functionality can be combined in other ways such that some or all functionality from multiple separately-depicted blocks can be implemented in a single functional block; similarly, functionality depicted in a single block may be separated into multiple blocks. [01158] Unless explicitly stated as mutually exclusive, features depicted in different drawings can be combined consistent with the principles of the present disclosure. [01159] In the drawings, reference numbers may be reused to identify identical elements or may simply identify elements that implement similar functionality. [01160] Numbering or other labeling of instructions or method steps is done for convenient reference, not to indicate a fixed order. [01161] In the drawings, the direction of an arrow, as indicated by the arrowhead, generally demonstrates the flow of information (such as data or instructions) that is of interest to the illustration. For example, when element A and element B exchange a variety of information but information transmitted from element A to element B is relevant to the illustration, the arrow may point from element A to element B. This unidirectional arrow does not imply that no other information is transmitted from element B to element A. As just one example, for information sent from element A to element B, element B may send requests and/or acknowledgements to element A. [01162] Unless otherwise indicated, recitations of ranges of values are merely intended to serve as a shorthand way of referring individually to each separate value falling within the range, and each separate value is hereby incorporated into the specification as if it were individually recited. Special-purpose system [01163] A special-purpose system includes hardware and/or software and may be described in terms of an apparatus, a method, or a computer-readable medium. In various embodiments, functionality may be apportioned differently between software and hardware. For example, some functionality may be implemented by hardware in one embodiment and by software in another embodiment. Further, software may be encoded by hardware structures, and hardware may be defined by software, such as in software-defined networking or software-defined radio. [01164] In this application, including the claims, the term module refers to a special-purpose system. The module may be implemented by one or more special-purpose systems. The one or more special-purpose systems may also implement some or all of the other modules. [01165] In this application, including the claims, the term module may be replaced with the terms controller or circuit. [01166] In this application, including the claims, the term platform refers to one or more modules that offer a set of functions. [01167] In this application, including the claims, the term system may be used interchangeably with module or with the term special-purpose system. [01168] The special-purpose system may be directed or controlled by an operator. The special- purpose system may be hosted by one or more of assets owned by the operator, assets leased by the operator, and third-party assets. The assets may be referred to as a private, community, or hybrid cloud computing network or cloud computing environment. [01169] For example, the special-purpose system may be partially or fully hosted by a third party offering software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and/or infrastructure as a service (IaaS). [01170] The special-purpose system may be implemented using agile development and operations (DevOps) principles. In embodiments, some or all of the special-purpose system may be implemented in a multiple-environment architecture. For example, the multiple environments may include one or more production environments, one or more integration environments, one or more development environments, etc. Device Examples [01171] A special-purpose system may be partially or fully implemented using or by a mobile device. Examples of mobile devices include navigation devices, cell phones, smart phones, mobile phones, mobile personal digital assistants, palmtops, netbooks, pagers, electronic book readers, tablets, music players, etc. [01172] A special-purpose system may be partially or fully implemented using or by a network device. Examples of network devices include switches, routers, firewalls, gateways, hubs, base stations, access points, repeaters, head-ends, user equipment, cell sites, antennas, towers, etc. [01173] A special-purpose system may be partially or fully implemented using a computer having a variety of form factors and other characteristics. For example, the computer may be characterized as a personal computer, as a server, etc. The computer may be portable, as in the case of a laptop, netbook, etc. The computer may or may not have any output device, such as a monitor, line printer, liquid crystal display (LCD), light emitting diodes (LEDs), etc. The computer may or may not have any input device, such as a keyboard, mouse, touchpad, trackpad, computer vision system, barcode scanner, button array, etc. The computer may run a general- purpose operating system, such as the WINDOWS operating system from Microsoft Corporation, the MACOS operating system from Apple, Inc., or a variant of the LINUX operating system. [01174] Examples of servers include a file server, print server, domain server, internet server, intranet server, cloud server, infrastructure-as-a-service server, platform-as-a-service server, web server, secondary server, host server, distributed server, failover server, and backup server. Hardware [01175] The term hardware encompasses components such as processing hardware, storage hardware, networking hardware, and other general-purpose and special-purpose components. Note that these are not mutually-exclusive categories. For example, processing hardware may integrate storage hardware and vice versa. [01176] Examples of a component are integrated circuits (ICs), application specific integrated circuit (ASICs), digital circuit elements, analog circuit elements, combinational logic circuits, gate arrays such as field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), digital signal processors (DSPs), complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs), etc. [01177] Multiple components of the hardware may be integrated, such as on a single die, in a single package, or on a single printed circuit board or logic board. For example, multiple components of the hardware may be implemented as a system-on-chip. A component, or a set of integrated components, may be referred to as a chip, chipset, chiplet, or chip stack. [01178] Examples of a system-on-chip include a radio frequency (RF) system-on-chip, an artificial intelligence (AI) system-on-chip, a video processing system-on-chip, an organ-on-chip, a quantum algorithm system-on-chip, etc. [01179] The hardware may integrate and/or receive signals from sensors. The sensors may allow observation and measurement of conditions including temperature, pressure, wear, light, humidity, deformation, expansion, contraction, deflection, bending, stress, strain, load-bearing, shrinkage, power, energy, mass, location, temperature, humidity, pressure, viscosity, liquid flow, chemical/gas presence, sound, and air quality. A sensor may include image and/or video capture in visible and/or non-visible (such as thermal) wavelengths, such as a charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensor. Processing Hardware [01180] Examples of processing hardware include a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), an approximate computing processor, a quantum computing processor, a parallel computing processor, a neural network processor, a signal processor, a digital processor, a data processor, an embedded processor, a microprocessor, and a co-processor. The co-processor may provide additional processing functions and/or optimizations, such as for speed or power consumption. Examples of a co-processor include a math co-processor, a graphics co-processor, a communication co-processor, a video co-processor, and an artificial intelligence (AI) co- processor. Processor Architecture [01181] The processor may enable execution of multiple threads. These multiple threads may correspond to different programs. In various embodiments, a single program may be implemented as multiple threads by the programmer or may be decomposed into multiple threads by the processing hardware. The threads may be executed simultaneously to enhance the performance of the processor and to facilitate simultaneous operations of the application. [01182] A processor may be implemented as a packaged semiconductor die. The die includes one or more processing cores and may include additional functional blocks, such as cache. In various embodiments, the processor may be implemented by multiple dies, which may be combined in a single package or packaged separately. Networking hardware [01183] The networking hardware may include one or more interface circuits. In some examples, the interface circuit(s) may implement wired or wireless interfaces that connect, directly or indirectly, to one or more networks. Examples of networks include a cellular network, a local area network (LAN), a wireless personal area network (WPAN), a metropolitan area network (MAN), and/or a wide area network (WAN). The networks may include one or more of point-to- point and mesh technologies. Data transmitted or received by the networking components may traverse the same or different networks. Networks may be connected to each other over a WAN or point-to-point leased lines using technologies such as Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and virtual private networks (VPNs). [01184] Examples of cellular networks include GSM, GPRS, 3G, 4G, 5G, LTE, and EVDO. The cellular network may be implemented using frequency division multiple access (FDMA) network or code division multiple access (CDMA) network. [01185] Examples of a LAN are Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard 802.11-2020 (also known as the WIFI wireless networking standard) and IEEE Standard 802.3-2018 (also known as the ETHERNET wired networking standard). [01186] Examples of a WPAN include IEEE Standard 802.15.4, including the ZIGBEE standard from the ZigBee Alliance. Further examples of a WPAN include the BLUETOOTH wireless networking standard, including Core Specification versions 3.0, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 5.0, and 5.1 from the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG). [01187] A WAN may also be referred to as a distributed communications system (DCS). One example of a WAN is the internet. Storage hardware [01188] Storage hardware is or includes a computer-readable medium. The term computer- readable medium, as used in this disclosure, encompasses both nonvolatile storage and volatile storage, such as dynamic random access memory (DRAM). The term computer-readable medium only excludes transitory electrical or electromagnetic signals propagating through a medium (such as on a carrier wave). A computer-readable medium in this disclosure is therefore non- transitory, and may also be considered to be tangible.
