  • Software systems and methods for multiple TALP family enhancement and management
    Patent number: 12293173
    Abstract: Software systems and methods convert algorithms and software codes into time affecting linear pathways (TALPs) via decomposition and convert paired Input/Output (I/O) datasets into TALPs via Value Complexity polynomials.
