  • Patent number: 11934945
    Abstract: Techniques in advanced deep learning provide improvements in one or more of accuracy, performance, and energy efficiency, such as accuracy of learning, accuracy of prediction, speed of learning, performance of learning, and energy efficiency of learning. An array of processing elements performs flow-based computations on wavelets of data. Each processing element has a respective compute element and a respective routing element. Each compute element has processing resources and memory resources. Each router enables communication via wavelets with at least nearest neighbors in a 2D mesh. Stochastic gradient descent, mini-batch gradient descent, and continuous propagation gradient descent are techniques usable to train weights of a neural network modeled by the processing elements. Reverse checkpoint is usable to reduce memory usage during the training.

  • Patent number: 11890320
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes the C-type lectin CLEC11a as a bone growth factor. Clec11a-deficient mice showed reduced bone volume and mineralization, while bone resorption remained unchanged. Administration of recombinant Clec11a systemically promoted bone formation in mice at risk for osteoporosis.

  • Publication number: 20210304152
    Abstract: A matchmaking and geolocation mobile software application is designed for recruiting and professional networking. The software application allows users to have jobs and resumes attached to their public profiles, which are displayed on a map for others to see, pursue and engage. The software application can include three primary screens for user information, a map view, a user view and a list view. Users can see who is around them and the application can prioritize showing other users who have something in common. People will be able to know information about who is around them at a coffee shop, conference, or networking event prior to engaging with them in real time. Users will be able to broadcast jobs they represent to those around them and will be able to represent that job anywhere they go within the map view.

  • Patent number: 10611600
    Abstract: An illustrative example elevator system includes an elevator car and a valve assembly that selectively directs fluid flow to control movement of the elevator car. At least one sensor provides an indication of a current status of the elevator car, which includes at least a position of the elevator car or a speed of the elevator car. A processor receives the indication from the at least one sensor and adjusts operation of the valve assembly when the current status of the elevator car is different than a predetermined desired status.
