Patent number: 11428826Abstract: A semiconductor device may include a plurality of single-photon avalanche diodes. The single-photon avalanche diodes may be arranged in microcells. Each microcell may be a split microcell with first and second independent microcell segments. Each microcell segment in the split microcell may have a respective single-photon avalanche diode that is coupled to an output line. The single-photon avalanche diode of each microcell segment may also be coupled to a respective resistor that is used to quench avalanches in the single-photon avalanche diode. Splitting the microcell may reduce the recovery time of each microcell. The segments of the split microcell may be positioned close together, even if susceptible to optical crosstalk. Intra-microcell isolation structures may be formed between the microcell segments. Inter-microcell isolation structures may be formed around a perimeter of the split microcell. The intra-microcell and inter-microcell isolation structures may be different.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2019Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: SEMICONDUCTOR COMPONENTS INDUSTRIES, LLCInventor: Brian Patrick McGarvey

Patent number: 11431665Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein provide dynamic permissions for controlling messages directed to a presenter of a communication system. For example, during a presentation of an online meeting, a system may selectively permit private messages to be sent to a presenter from designated participants. The private messages sent from the designated participants are displayed to the presenter in a manner that does not allow the other participants to see the messages. For instance, if the presenter is sharing a screen from a computer, the system can determine a set of permitted users allowed to send messages to the presenter. The system configures permissions to cause the messages to be displayed in a manner that allows the presenter to view the messages along with their presentation content, while restricting or suppressing the display of the messages to other non-permitted users. The system restricts the non-permitted users from sending messages to the presenter.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2021Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Bahram Ali, Fehmi Chebil

Patent number: 11429915Abstract: Systems and methods for predicting feature values in a matrix are disclosed. In example embodiments, a server accesses a matrix, the matrix having multiple dimensions, one dimension of the matrix representing features, and one dimension of the matrix representing entities. The server separates the matrix into multiple submatrices along a first dimension, each submatrix including all cells in the matrix for a set of values in the first dimension. The server provides the multiple submatrices to multiple machines. The server computes, using each machine, a correlation between values in at least one second dimension of the matrix and a value for a preselected feature in the matrix, the correlation being used to predict the value for the preselected feature based on other values along the at least one second dimension. The server provides an output representing the computed correlation.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2017Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Gio Borje, Benjamin John McCann, David DiCato, Jerry Lin, Skylar Payne, Apoorv Khandelwal, Nadeem Anjum
