Patent number: 11711911Abstract: A thermal management system for an enclosure containing electrical components includes a cooling unit for controlling temperature inside the enclosure and a controller for the cooling unit, the controller being configured so that it can receive a three-phase power input signal and distribute power and control connected components using the three-phase signal. The controller can protect the compressor in critical scenarios such as thermal overload and overcurrent. The controller can output various faults such as missing phase alarm, imbalance phase alarm, overcurrent alarm, thermal overload alarm, door open alarm, and temperature and pressure alarms. An auto phase sequence correction controls the phase relay, accepting 3 phase 480 VAC power input from facility power terminal, supplying 3 phase power to the compressor and motor impellers, 12V DC power to a display unit, and 24V DC power to a remote access control module.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2021Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Hoffman Enclosures Inc.Inventors: Shawn A. Thao, Mark J. Sowada, Michael Rasmussen, Jason Dickmann, Victor Divine, William J. Hanson

Publication number: 20230206438Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to multi-arm machine learning models for lesion detection. Particularly, aspects of the present disclosure are directed to accessing a three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. Each of the three-dimensional MRI images depict a same volume of a brain of a subject. The volume of the brain includes at least part of one or more lesions. Each three-dimensional MRI image of the three-dimensional MRI images is processed using one or more corresponding encoder arms of a machine-learning model to generate an encoding of the three-dimensional MRI image. The encodings of the three-dimensional MRI images are concatenated to generate a concatenated representation. The concatenated representation is processed using a decoder arm of the machine-learning model to generate a prediction that identifies one or more portions of the volume of the brain predicted to depict at least part of a lesion.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2023Publication date: June 29, 2023Applicants: Genentech, Inc., Hoffman-La Roche Inc.Inventors: Zhuang Song, Nils Gustav Thomas Bengtsson, Richard Alan Duray Carano, David B.
