Publication number: 20240169282Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to obtaining task and/or list information from various types of media files. In examples, an image of an environment may be obtained, where the image may include a depiction of a plurality of tasks. The tasks may be extracted from the image and assigned to one or more users based contextual information within the image. In some examples, tasks within an image may be identified based on positional information of the text and/or character delimiters. In some examples, audio information may be received and processed such that the audio information is converted to text. The text may then be parsed to extract one or more items of a list and/or one or more tasks.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 29, 2024Publication date: May 23, 2024Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Ryen W. WHITE, Robert A. SIM, Mark ENCARNACIÓN, Elnaz NOURI, Michael GAMON, Nalin SINGAL

Publication number: 20240159230Abstract: A compressor assembly having a high velocity muffler system which produces a particle-free compressor pump feed while reducing noise output from the compressor assembly during compressing operations. The high velocity muffler system is maintenance-free and comprises an inertia filter. The compressor assembly uses a method for producing a compressor pump feed and reducing noise during compressing operations by processing a gas through the high velocity muffler system which has an inertia filter and a muffler chamber to produce a compressor pump feed which can be compressed by a pump assembly.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Applicant: Black & Decker Inc.Inventors: Mark W. Wood, Stephen J. Vos, Scott D. Craig, Gary D. White, Dalton E. McFarland

Publication number: 20240146659Abstract: Methods are provided for a collaborative, decentralized insight engineering based on exchanging telemetry vectors with peer network devices. Each network device independently detects a deviation in its functioning using machine learning of generated feature vectors. Specifically, the methods involve obtaining, from at least one peer network device, at least a first feature vector that represents at least one insight generated from telemetry data of a respective peer network device. The intermediate network device and the at least one peer network device are configured to forward packets of a traffic flow. The methods further involve determining whether a deviation related to one or more of the network devices, exists based at least on the first feature vector and performing the at least one predefined action based on determining that the deviation exists.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Xinping Xu, David C. White, JR., John W. Garrett, JR., Mark Ammar Rayes, Joel Abraham Obstfeld

Publication number: 20240101722Abstract: Provided herein are organic solvent-based processes for the removal of rubber from non-Hevea plants such as guayule shrubs. By the use of the processes, solid purified rubber can be obtained that contains 0.05-0.5 weight % dirt, 0.2-1.5 weight % ash, and 0.1-4 weight % resin (when it has been dried so as to contain 0.8 weight % volatile matter).Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Bridgestone CorporationInventors: Yingyi Huang, Mark W. Smale, Robert W. White, Hiroshi Mouri, William M. Cole, Michael R. Hartzell, Taigyoo Park

Patent number: 6555753Abstract: A method of forming flexible communications wire for use in Local Area Networks is disclosed. A plurality of individual metal strands are formed into a central conductor. The central conductor is then compressed and/or heated to bond adjacent strands together and to reduce the diameter of the wire.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2002Date of Patent: April 29, 2003Assignee: Krone, Inc.Inventors: Spring Rutledge, Jim L. Dickman, II, Mark W. White, Robert Kenny

Patent number: 6150612Abstract: High performance data cables are provided that allows for future growth in networking speeds. The high performance data cables achieve this result while satisfying the dimensional requirements set by the EIA/TIA 568-A standards as well as fire performance safety requirements of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). High performance data cables of this invention achieve the above by controlling parameters that influence impedance performance, near-end crosstalk performance and attenuation. A separating filler material is used to maximize the pair-to-pair distance while maintaining an overall maximum outside diameter of 0.250". This construction benefits crosstalk performance, as both electrical and magnetic field intensities are inversely related to distance and dielectric constant (crosstalk is made up of capacitative and inductive coupling, with inductive coupling becoming significant at frequencies above 50 MHz).Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 1998Date of Patent: November 21, 2000Assignee: Prestolite Wire CorporationInventors: Mark E. Grandy, Edwin D. Laing, Janet M. Rosenbaum, James J. Pelster, Rune Totland, Jim L. Dickman, II, Mark W. White, David J. Wiekhorst, Timothy N. Berelsman

Patent number: 4701953Abstract: A signal compression system includes a plurality of channels. A plurality of these channels include a bandpass filter (for filtering out all but a portion of an input signal), an intensity detector (for deriving a spectrally weighted estimate of the intensity of a broader spectral portion of the input signal than the bandpass filtered spectral portion), and a divider (for compressing the bandpass filtered spectral portion using a variable gain having a preselected functional relationship to the spectrally weighted intensity estimate). The signal compression system preserves cross-channel information.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 1984Date of Patent: October 20, 1987Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventor: Mark W.
