Patent number: 12373762Abstract: In an industrial plant, various equipment are used to handle processing of raw materials. Considering complexities involved in the processes and the equipment, constant monitoring is required to obtain desired results. The disclosure herein generally relates to industrial process and equipment monitoring, and, more particularly, to data analysis for Just In Time (JIT) characterization of raw materials in any process industry. The system collects real-time plant data among other inputs, and performs characterization of raw materials being used in the plant. The characterization involves categorizing the raw materials into different classes. The class information is further used to predict performance of the industrial plant, and in turn to generate recommendations for optimization of the industrial plant.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2020Date of Patent: July 29, 2025Assignee: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Anirudh Makarand Deodhar, Abhishek Baikadi, Sriharsha Nistala, Rajan Kumar, Ashit Gupta, Sivakumar Subramanian, Venkataramana Runkana, Rohan Pandya

Patent number: 12354056Abstract: An online concierge system provides arrival prediction services for a user placing an order to be retrieved by a shopper. An order may have a predicted arrival time predicted by a model that may err under some conditions. To reduce the likelihood of providing the predicted arrival time (and related services) when the arrival time may be incorrect, the prediction model and related services are throttled (e.g., selectively provided) based on one or more predicted delivery metrics, which may include a time to accept the order by a shopper and a predicted portion of late orders that will be delivered past the respective predicted arrival times. The predicted delivery metrics are compared with thresholds and the result of the comparison used to selectively provide, or not provide, the predicted delivery services.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2022Date of Patent: July 8, 2025Assignee: Maplebear Inc.Inventors: Shuai Wang, Zi Wang, Ganesh Krishnan, Houtao Deng, Aman Jain, Jian Wang

Patent number: 12271436Abstract: Forward-looking sales activities are poorly served by existing Customer Relationship Managements systems, as the customer information those systems maintain by definition does not include the speculatively interested “leads” pursued in initial sales contacts. An Enrichment database, asynchronously loaded with corporate and optionally individual contact information in anticipation of use, provides real-time access to information in support of such first customer contacts. The Enrichment information may also be used to expedite creation and revision of CRM records.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2023Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Assignee: HubSpot, Inc.Inventors: Christopher O'Donnell, Andrew Pitre, Matthew Schnitt, Emil Sit, Tim Hennekey, Matt Ball, Greg Brown, Ze'ev Klapow, Zoe Sobin, Jared Williams, Marc Neuwirth, Ricardo Villamil

Patent number: 12265933Abstract: An online concierge system assigns shoppers to fulfill orders from users. To allocate shoppers, the online concierge system predicts future supply and demand for the shoppers' services for different time windows. To forecast a supply of shoppers, the online concierge system trains a machine learning model that estimates future supply based on access to a shopper mobile application through which the shoppers obtain new assignments by shoppers. The online concierge system also forecasts future orders. The online concierge system estimates a supply gap in a future time period by selecting a target time to accept for shoppers to accept orders and determining a corresponding ratio of number of shoppers and number of orders. The online concierge system may adjust a number of shoppers allocated to the future time period to achieve the determined ratio number of shoppers and number of orders.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2022Date of Patent: April 1, 2025Assignee: Maplebear Inc.Inventors: Soren Zeliger, Aman Jain, Zhaoyu Kou, Ji Chen, Trace Levinson, Ganesh Krishnan

Patent number: 12249951Abstract: This invention is embodied in an energy yield optimization device that can be used to optimize energy yields for a utility-scale photovoltaic power plant. More specifically, this solution is directed to utility-scale photovoltaic power plants that have undulating (non-planar) topography. Because of the undulating topography, the rotating axles of the solar trackers will not necessarily be horizontal and would be expected to be different for each independent rotating axle in the field. The preferred solution claimed herein deploys a marching algorithm to find the preferred optimum solution.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2022Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: AZTEC ENGINEERING GROUP, INC.Inventor: Javier Damia-Levy
