Patent number: 11675684Abstract: The present system for modeling intelligent sensor selection and placement takes signal and sensor information and calculates a statistical inference. As signal data passes through a series of processors, it is transformed by functions to account for signal emission, sensor reception, environmental factors, and noise. This produces a simulation of what the emitted signal would appear to be at a given sensor. The system may be used to select the most effective sensors for a given area or to determine the best sensor coverage for a given area.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2017Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AS REPRESENTED BY THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMYInventor: David Keith Wilson

Patent number: 11475207Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices supporting data processing are described. In some systems, a data processing platform may support communication message analysis using machine learning. For example, a system may receive a set of communication messages (e.g., social media messages) and perform a machine learning process on the message contents and message interaction data to train a machine learned model. The system may further receive a subject line for a communication message for analysis, input the subject line into the machine learned model, and receive, as an output of the machine learned model, an engagement score based on the subject line. The engagement score may indicate an estimated probability that a user receiving the communication message opens the communication message (e.g., based on the subject line). A user—or the system—may modify the subject line based on the analysis to improve the engagement score.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Kexin Xie, Gokhan Cagrici, Daniel Keith Wilson, Shrestha Basu Mallick, Jonathan Daniel Showers Belkowitz, Jason Lestina, James Brewer, Daniel Louis Gasperut, Jeffery Allen Zickgraf, Greg Lyman, Michael Ronald Brewer, Evan Black, Austin Rauschuber, Victoria Schultz, Matthew David Trepina, Peter Stadlinger

Patent number: 10499389Abstract: A base station for wireless network uses one or more MIMO channels having subchannels, to communicate with multiple user equipments, and allocates the sub channels to the user equipments. Different subchannels of a given one of the channels can be allocated to different user equipments. The ability to allocate sub channels individually rather than only allocating entire channels can enable higher data rates to be achieved. This is particularly useful for improving data rates at cell boundaries or sector boundaries, where the coverage is traditionally weakest. A user equipment can use subchannels from different MIMO channels from different sectors or from different base stations.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2018Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Fiona Wilson, Keith Wilson
