The goal is to ensure quality for a period of time after you buy it. That can be several days to several weeks, depending on the item. For instance, milk, assuming proper refrigeration, should last five to seven days past its sell-by date before turning sour.
An autoencoder is a neural network that is trained in an unsupervised fashion. The goal of an autoencoder is to find a more compact representation of the data by learning an encoder, which transforms the data to their corresponding compact representation, and a decoder, which reconstructs the original data.
This is where the transfer case encoder motor comes into play. The encoder motor is what provides the power for your vehicle to switch back and forth between two-wheel and four-wheel drive modes.
