  • Publication number: 20240112093
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention disclose techniques for optimizing a plurality of machine-learning based models for an end-to-end investigative process. The techniques include generating a profile for an input data object associated with an investigative process. A first machine-learning based model is used to select a predictive data analysis sub-routine for processing the profile. A second machine-learning based model is used to determine a predictive entity for performing an investigative process for the profile. An investigative outcome is received from the predictive entity. A historical optimization data object is augmented with the investigative outcome, the profile, the predictive data analysis sub-routine, or the predictive entity and the first machine-learning based model and the second machine-learning based model are trained using the historical optimization object.

  • Publication number: 20240111551
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention disclose techniques for orchestrating a complex data processing scheme for an investigative process using a machine-learning based orchestration model that is trained to optimize the use of computing resources based at least in part on a feedback loop. An input data object associated with an investigative process can be selected for investigation; a predictive data analysis sub-routine for processing the input data object can be intelligently selected from a plurality of predictive data analysis sub-routines by the machine-learning based orchestration model; and a processing orchestration action can be initiated based at least in part on an investigative score output by the predictive data analysis sub-routine. The processing orchestration action can include closing the input data object, continuing to process the input data object with additional predictive data analysis sub-routines, or passing the input data object to a predictive entity for further processing.

  • Patent number: 5125522
    Abstract: A closure which permits the opening of a membrane seal of an enteral nutritional product container in a single-action motion while maintaining product sterility. This closure includes a general cylindrical side wall having threads along the inner surface thereof, a planar top surface having first and second upwardly extending projections. The first projection is associated with a filter means for allowing air to enter the container, while the second projection has a base which is a spikable membrane. A bottom surface having an annular raised portion is provided. The bottom surface has a downwardly projecting plow member as well abutting against gasket means positioned between the annular raised portion and the inner surface of the side wall.

  • Patent number: 4944396
    Abstract: The present invention is a device for indicating when a golf club is removed from a golf bag, and from which location the club has been removed. A tubular indicator member is pulled by the golf club from the particular aperture where the club resides the tubular indicator extends upwardly so as to visually indicate the location and number of the club that was removed.

  • Patent number: 4934545
    Abstract: A closure containing an internalized microbial filter for use in enteral delivery set assemblies. The closure comprises a generally cylindrical side wall, a planar top surface having first and second projections, the first projection being associated with the spikable membrane while the second projection is associated with a filter and with means to limit air access to the filter. The closure also includes a bottom surface having an aperture which extends through the closure to the top surface thereof with the filter being secured to the bottom surface and extending across the opening of the aperture.
