Patent number: 11972277Abstract: A method for ascertaining an emotional goal includes receiving, via an emotionally responsive computerized system having a user interface communicatively coupled to a networked user device including a processor device, user-input concerning a purpose of a user's interaction with a software interface. It can include registering input indicating a target person to whom the purpose of the user's interaction pertains and prompting the user to provide a root motivator comprising a root emotion or a root reason for the interaction. Some variations include generating a user-perceptible output and a set of user interface elements dependent on the root motivator along with obtaining the user's specific emotional goal with respect to the target person on the basis of user-inputs in response to a presentation of a sequence of user interface elements, to provide the user, via the software interface, a recommendation regarding a fulfillment of the specific emotional goal.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2020Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: LOVINGLY, LLCInventors: Joseph Vega, Kenny Garland, Daniela Virginia Marquez, Marque Nolan Staneluis, Dennis Park-Rodriguez, Ryan Wesley A.

Patent number: 11961509Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for improving dialog management for task-oriented dialog systems. The disclosed dialog builder leverages machine teaching processing to improve development of dialog managers. In this way, the dialog builder combines the strengths of both rule-based and machine-learned approaches to allow dialog authors to: (1) import a dialog graph developed using popular dialog composers, (2) convert the dialog graph to text-based training dialogs, (3) continuously improve the trained dialogs based on log dialogs, and (4) generate a corrected dialog for retraining the machine learning.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Swadheen Kumar Shukla, Lars Hasso Liden, Thomas Park, Matthew David Mazzola, Shahin Shayandeh, Jianfeng Gao, Eslam Kamal Abdelreheem

Patent number: 11945112Abstract: Simulated motion of the papillary muscles in a heart simulator is provided that simulates natural motion of the papillary muscles. This improves heart valve simulation. This can be done with a six degree of freedom robotic actuator (e.g., a Stewart platform or the like) appropriately driven by a controller. This can also be done with a robotic actuator that provides constrained motion of its effector by including a mechanical linkage, as long as the resulting simulated papillary muscle motion includes time-varying position and orientation of the papillary muscle.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior UniversityInventors: Y. Joseph Woo, Michael John Paulsen, Annabel M. Imbrie-Moore, Matthew Park, Rohun Kulkarni

Patent number: 11932282Abstract: Trajectory generation for controlling motion or other behavior of an autonomous vehicle may include alternately determining a candidate action and predicting a future state based on that candidate action. The technique may include determining a cost associated with the candidate action that may include an estimation of a transition cost from a current or former state to a next state of the vehicle. This cost estimate may be a lower bound cost or an upper bound cost and the tree search may alternately apply the lower bound cost or upper bound cost exclusively or according to a ratio or changing ratio. The prediction of the future state may be based at least in part on a machine-learned model's classification of a dynamic object as being a reactive object or a passive object, which may change how the dynamic object is modeled for the prediction.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: ZOOX, INC.Inventors: Timothy Caldwell, Rasmus Fonseca, Arian Houshmand, Xianan Huang, Marin Kobilarov, Lichao Ma, Chonhyon Park, Cheng Peng, Matthew Van Heukelom

Patent number: 11631360Abstract: A method of presenting visual information on a screen (306) involves defining a boundary (314) delineating a first region of the screen (which may be towards a centre of the screen) from a second region of the screen (which may be towards a periphery of the screen), displaying a first portion of the visual information in the first region of the screen at a first display quality, and displaying a second portion of the visual information in the second region of the screen at a second, lower, display quality. The method further involves blurring the visual information for display in at least a portion of the second region. The location of the boundary (314) may change over time, and may be based on where a user is looking, or is expected to be looking, or on the type of information being displayed or based on other parameters.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: April 18, 2023Assignee: DISPLAYLINK (UK) LIMITEDInventor: Matthew Parks

Patent number: 11615734Abstract: A method for processing data for display on a screen involves encoding, using a first colour space, a first portion of image data intended to be displayed on a first area of the screen and encoding, using a second colour space, a second portion of image data intended to be displayed on a second area of the screen. The encoded first and second portions of the image data are compressed, and transmitted over a link for display on the screen. By using different colour spaces to encode image data that is displayed in different parts of a screen, differences in a users vision and/or aberrations caused by display equipment may be accounted for and so provide an improved user experience. Using different colour spaces for different screen areas may also reduce the amount of data that needs to be transmitted, for example by encoding image data more effectively and/or allowing more efficient compression of data.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: DISPLAYLINK (UK) LIMITEDInventors: Patrick Cooper, Matthew Parks, Colin Skinner

Publication number: 20230039975Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of writing data to, and reading data from, one or more buffers. The method comprises: determining a write rate of writing data into a first buffer; determining a read rate of reading data from the first buffer; determining, using the write rate and the read rate, a portion of the first buffer; writing data into the portion of the first buffer; starting to read data from the first buffer when the writing of data to the portion of the first buffer has finished; and writing data into a remaining part of the first buffer, different from the portion of the first buffer. The portion of the first buffer is determined such that the reading of data from the first buffer does not overtake the writing of data into the first buffer.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2021Publication date: February 9, 2023Inventors: Matthew PARKS, Peter SKAN

Publication number: 20220400126Abstract: An automated framework provides security monitoring and analysis in a network by autonomously detecting actual and potential threats to the network. In response to detection of a threat, the framework instantiates a Situation to provide directed monitoring of the threat. The Situation invokes specific skills based on the state of the Situation to monitor network traffic for activity specific to the threat that instantiated the Situation. As data is collected, additional skills may be invoked based on the additional data to collect new data, and previously invoked skills may be terminated depending on the additional data to avoid collecting information that is no-longer relevant.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2021Publication date: December 15, 2022Inventors: Keith Amidon, David Pearson, Jeff Polakow, Matthew Park, Gary Golomb
