AI-Powered Flare Combustion Efficiency Estimation

The paper presents a lightweight vision‑language encoder paired with a compact multi‑layer perceptron to estimate flare combustion efficiency from low‑cost thermal video. The trained model is deployed via a user‑friendly GUI that overlays efficiency values on each frame, tracks real‑time trends, visualizes distribution across the video, and exports CSV reports. In a six‑month trial, the system maintained 99% uptime with under 15 minutes of weekly maintenance.

PR-MaGIC: Prompt Refinement Via Mask Decoder Gradient Flow For In-Context Segmentation

PR-MaGIC is a training‑free, test‑time framework that refines prompts for in‑context image segmentation by using gradient flow from the mask decoder of the Segment Anything Model (SAM). It integrates seamlessly into existing in‑context segmentation pipelines and employs a simple top‑1 selection strategy to stabilize performance. Extensive evaluations show that PR‑MaGIC consistently improves segmentation quality across multiple benchmarks without requiring additional training or architectural changes.
