Publication number: 20250042497Abstract: A vehicle proximity and alert system and apparatus warns snowmobilers of other approaching vehicles with potential risk of collision. To better prevent accidents, the system calculates collision risks and warns the rider based on level of risk. When riding in groups, a member can press a stop request button to ask the group to slow down. When a member exits the group, everyone in the group will receive a message, alerts or indication with the update. The vehicle detection system utilizes Bluetooth low energy (BLE), LoRa technologies and/or global positioning system technologies and is designed to detect other devices in the region and use acquired information to calculate proximity and risk of collision.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 5, 2024Publication date: February 6, 2025Inventors: Stephen Paul CHURKO, Rachel Kellie CHURKO, Jason Tyler GRIFFIN, Joshua Kwan Ho WONG, Timothy MACKAY, Thai NGUYEN, Minxuan WANG, Benjamin ALTMAN, Lawrence Sze-Heen LEUNG

Publication number: 20250045618Abstract: In a general aspect, calibration is performed in a quantum computing system. In some cases, domains of a quantum computing system are identified, where the domains include respective domain control subsystems and respective subsets of quantum circuit devices in a quantum processor of the quantum computing system. Sets of measurements are obtained from one of the domains and stored in memory. Device characteristics of the quantum circuit devices of the domain are obtained based on the set of measurements, and the device characteristics are stored in a memory of the control system. Quantum logic control parameters for the subset of quantum circuit devices of the domain are obtained based on the set of measurements and stored in memory.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2024Publication date: February 6, 2025Applicant: Rigetti & Co, LLCInventors: Benjamin Jacob BLOOM, Shane Arthur CALDWELL, Michael James CURTIS, Matthew J.

Patent number: 11676075Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a system for reducing labeled sample quantities required to update test sets. The computer-implemented method includes inputting a portion of unlabeled production data into a base model and generating labeled output relating to the unlabeled production data. The computer-implemented method also includes inputting the labeled output into a performance predictor. The performance predictor is a meta model of the base model that is trained with another portion of the unlabeled production data, a training set used to train the base model, and a test set portioned from the training set. The computer-implemented method further includes outputting, by the performance predictor, a performance metric relating to the labeled output produced by the trained base model. The performance metric can be any metric capable of measuring the output performance of the base model.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2020Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jiri Navratil, Matthew Richard Arnold, Begum Taskazan, Benjamin Tyler Elder

Publication number: 20230122472Abstract: Hybrid on-policy/off-policy techniques are provided for improving the estimation of quality (reward) of a control policy for decision making by combining the on-policy and off-policy data from multiple estimators into a single metric. In one aspect, a method for estimating a reward of a policy for decision making in a computer system includes: computing multiple reward estimates of the policy using estimators, wherein at least a subset of the estimators compute reward estimates with prediction intervals; and combining the multiple reward estimates using a combiner to produce a new reward estimate. Thus, some of the estimators might compute the reward estimates without prediction intervals. A method for estimating a reward of a policy when another one or more of the estimators compute reward estimates without prediction intervals is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2021Publication date: April 20, 2023Inventors: Benjamin Tyler Elder, Matthew Richard Arnold, Michael Lawrence Stickler

Patent number: 11428487Abstract: A firearm for firing cased telescoped (CT) ammunition cartridges that includes a split chamber configured to fully support a CT cartridge when it is fired, and that includes i) a dynamic rear chamber portion defining a pocket in a face of a bolt, and ii) a static front chamber portion that is integral to the barrel and separate from the bolt. A cartridge extraction mechanism engages the CT cartridge prior to the CT cartridge being fired, and holds the CT cartridge in the pocket in the bolt face as the bolt moves rearward to pull the CT cartridge out of the static front chamber portion and into an ejection position. An ejector is operable to eject the CT cartridge from the pocket in the face of the bolt when the CT cartridge reaches the ejection position.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2021Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Textron Systems CorporationInventors: Paul Andrew Shipley, Cameron Mehdi Brand, Kevin Michael Ayotte, Joshua Stephen Ruck, Benjamin Tyler Cole, William Henry Engel, IV
