Publication number: 20240346008Abstract: Disclosed are implementations that include a method for detecting anomalous data, including converting a set of data values representative of a multi-dimensional item into a nodes-and-edges graph representation of the item, applying a graph convolution process to the graph representation to generate a transformed graph representation for the item comprising a resultant transformed configuration of the nodes and edges representing the item, and determining, based on the transformed configuration, a probability that the item is anomalous. Another example method includes receiving input data at a neural network circuit comprising a plurality of node layers, with each of the plurality of node layers comprising respective one or more nodes, with the neural network circuit further comprising adjustable weighted connections connecting at least some nodes in different layers of the plurality of node layers. The method further includes removing one or more of the weighted connections at one or more time instances.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 5, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Inventors: Louizos Alexandros Louizos, Ayaan Chaudhry, Gary Plunkett, Oliver Clark, Cathy Ross, R.

Publication number: 20230330902Abstract: A method for creating optical articles includes moving first and second mold portions relative to one another. This disclosure includes injection molds for reducing cycle times and related methods. Some molds include first and second mold portions movable relative to one another from open to closed positions in which each recess of the first mold portion cooperates with a respective recess of the second mold portion to define a chamber. Each chambers includes a first cooling body coupled to the first mold portion, a second cooling body coupled to the second mold portion, and first and second inserts removably coupled, respectively, to the first and second cooling bodies. The inserts cooperate to define a mold cavity within the chamber configured to receive a thermoplastic material. Each of the cooling bodies has an inlet, an outlet, and a fluid cavity in fluid communication with the inlet and the outlet.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Tareq HAQUE, Gary CLARK, David RYS

Publication number: 20210062502Abstract: An improved fire-retarded insert for forming a fire and thermal barrier between the bottom of a fluted deck structure and the top-of-walls is disclosed. The fire-retardant insert comprises an elongated fire-retardant member and at least one intumescent member in contact with the top, bottom, side, or end surfaces of the fire-retardant member, or positioned within the interior of the fire-retardant member. The fire-retardant member and the intumescent member are circumscribed preferably by a thin flexible film, such as shrink-wrap, to fully encase the fire-retardant insert making the installation easier and safer.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2018Publication date: March 4, 2021Inventors: Riley Archer, Harvey Steven Grodjesk, Gary Clark, Robert Martinelli

Patent number: 10696504Abstract: A highway towable dock-lift trailer for use in loading and/or unloading trucks, rail cars, containers, etc., for example, in any location and across all industries and applications, and can include a tow bar that allows the trailer be towed to a desirable position or location. When the tow bar is removed from the trailer or repositioned relative to the frame, either a truck can back into position or the trailer lift can be positioned against the truck, etc., and the trailer lift is then ready to load and/or offload the truck. As an operator elevates the loading platform of the trailer, via hydraulic lifting means, for example, the lift can move up to truck height and hydraulically operated lifting arms can operate opposed automatic folding ramps, which simultaneously can open for load distribution and close for safety.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2019Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Superior Handling Equipment, LLCInventors: Gary Clark, Michael S.
