Patent number: 11011266Abstract: A health provider matching service is provided to match patients to health providers based on a semantic relationship graph of data associated with conditions of patients. Using natural language processing, the service identifies terms describing symptoms, treatments, and health providers associated with a condition. The service then identifies semantic relations among the terms and probability distributions of the terms to generate a semantic relationship graph. Quality information of therapists is combined with machine learning techniques to identify features that are used to distinguish high quality and low quality providers. Based on the semantic relationship graph and the derived quality information, the service matches a patient to a health provider suitable to treat the particular needs of the patient. The service also handles social, behavioral, or emotional issues for which medications are not appropriate.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2016Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: LYRA HEALTH, INC.Inventors: Jessie M. Burger, Daniella J. Perlroth, Aaron Archer Waterman

Patent number: 10706964Abstract: An optimization system optimizes groups of providers for a given population of users. The optimization system includes various engines such as a source interface engine, selection engine, and group score engine. The source interface engine receives information to be used in constrained optimization from server computers and stores the information in databases. The selection engine selects groups of providers from a set of all available providers. The group score engine generates a score for each group of providers. The selection engine continues to iteratively select groups of providers to minimize the generated score. The selection engine can use hard constraints, for example, requiring that a certain type of provider be included in all selected groups, or soft constraints, for example, requiring that a certain number of providers be included based on a size of the given population.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2016Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: LYRA HEALTH, INC.Inventors: Daniella J. Perlroth, Aaron Archer Waterman, Jessie M. Burger, Armando Franco

Patent number: 10571900Abstract: A system and method autonomously determines the impact of respective tool parameters on tool performance in a semiconductor manufacturing system. A parameter impact identification system receives tool parameter and tool performance data for one or more process runs of the semiconductor fabrication system and generates a separate function for each tool parameter characterizing the behavior of a tool performance indicator in terms of a single one of the tool parameters. Each function is then scored according to how well the function predicts the actual behavior of the tool performance indicator, or based on a determined sensitivity of the tool performance indicator to changes in the single tool parameter. The tool parameters are then ranked based on these scores, and a reduced set of critical tool parameters is derived based on the ranking. The tool performance indicator can then be modeled based on this reduced set of tool parameters.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2017Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: TOKYO ELECTRON LIMITEDInventors: Sanjeev Kaushal, Sukesh Janubhai Patel, Wolfgang Polak, Aaron Archer Waterman, Orion Wolfe

Patent number: 10133265Abstract: A system and method for autonomously tracing a cause of particle contamination during semiconductor manufacture is provided. A contamination analysis system analyzes tool process logs together with particle contamination data for multiple process runs to determine a relationship between systematic particle contamination levels and one or more tool parameters. This relationship is used to predict expected contamination levels associated with regular usage of the tool, and to identify which tool parameters have the largest impact on expected levels of particle contamination. The contamination analysis system also identifies process logs showing unexpected deviant particle contamination levels that exceed expected contamination levels, and traces the cause of the deviant particle contamination to particular process log parameter events.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2016Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: TOKYO ELECTRON LIMITEDInventors: Aaron Archer Waterman, Yuichiro Morozumi, Tetsushi Ozaki, Sanjeev Kaushal, Sukesh Janubhai Patel

Publication number: 20170262609Abstract: A behavioral health risk assessment service is provided to determine the behavioral health risk of a patient using personal demographic information and the patient's responses to adaptive screening questions. The screening questions are customized to the patient using machine learning techniques such as decision trees that optimize the amount of expected information gain on the behavioral health risk of the patient. A model of the patient's activity such as exercise and sleep is also generated and trained using data collected from smart devices used by the patient. Based on the determined behavioral health risk, the risk assessment service refers the patient to an appropriate provider, such as a therapist, to treat any diagnosed behavioral health conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2016Publication date: September 14, 2017Inventors: Daniella Perlroth, Aaron Archer Waterman

Publication number: 20170193171Abstract: A personalized health care provider matching service is provided to rank and select the best matched health care providers for a patient across multiple dimensions according to the patient's medical conditions, non-medical factors and treatment preferences. Each medical condition of the patient represents a dimension. The service measures a provider's level of competency for treating a medical condition, e.g., based on the provider's drug prescription patterns in treating the medical condition measured against a reference practice standard. The provider matching service ranks the providers across the multiple medical conditions/treatment needs of a patient, where the rankings of the providers represent the providers' competency across multiple dimensions. The provider matching service assesses a patient's needs across different medical conditions and applies different weights to different corresponding dimensions in ranking the providers.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2016Publication date: July 6, 2017Inventors: Daniella Perlroth, Aaron Archer Waterman

Publication number: 20100088415Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing facility location plans for a network are disclosed. For example, the method identifies a facility and a number of nearest active clients associated with a minimized cost per unit demand of connecting these clients to this facility. The method then connects the number of nearest active clients to the facility associated with the minimized cost per unit demand. In one embodiment, the method iterates this process with the remaining clients until all demands have been assigned to facilities.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2008Publication date: April 8, 2010Inventors: AARON ARCHER, Shankar Krishnan
