Patent number: 12256962Abstract: Bone anchor assemblies are disclosed herein that can provide for improved fixation as compared with traditional bone anchor assemblies. An exemplary assembly can include a bracket or wing that extends down from the receiver member. The distal portion of the wing can define a bone anchor opening through which one or more auxiliary bone anchors can be disposed to augment the fixation of the assembly's primary bone anchor. A distal surface of the distal portion of the wing can be obliquely angled relative to a proximal-distal axis of the spanning portion to face one of a caudal direction or a cephalad direction. A distal surface of the distal portion of the wing can be obliquely angled relative to the proximal-distal axis of the spanning portion to face one of a medial direction or a lateral direction. Surgical methods using the bone anchor assemblies described herein are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2023Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: Medos International SrlInventors: Kevin Lee, Mark Hall, Christopher Ramsay, John Riley Hawkins, Albert Montello, Joseph Peterson, Benjamin Johnston, Heiko Koller, Todd Albert, Christopher Ames, Bradford Currier, Claudius Thorne, Masashi Neo

Patent number: 12204991Abstract: In a general aspect, a gate is formed for a quantum processor. In some implementations, an arbitrary program is received. The arbitrary program includes a first sequence of quantum logic gates, which includes a parametric XY gate. A native gate set is identified, which includes a set of quantum logic gates associated with a quantum processing unit. A second sequence of quantum logic gates corresponding to the parametric XY gate is identified, which includes a parametric quantum logic gate. Each of the quantum logic gates in the second sequence is selected from the native gate set. A native program is generated. The native program includes a third sequence of quantum logic gates. The third sequence of quantum logic gates corresponds to the first sequence of quantum logic gates and includes the second sequence of quantum logic gates. The native program is provided for execution by the quantum processing unit.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2023Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: Rigetti & Co, LLCInventors: Colm Andrew Ryan, Eric Christopher Peterson, Marcus Palmer da Silva, Michael Justin Gerchick Scheer, Deanna Margo Abrams

Patent number: 12165013Abstract: Techniques for training local decoders for use in a local and global decoding scheme for quantum error correction of circuit-level noise within quantum surface codes such that the decoding schemes have fast decoding throughout and low latency times for quantum algorithms are disclosed. The local decoders may have a neural network architecture and may be trained using training data sets comprising simulated rounds of syndrome measurements for respective simulated quantum surface codes in addition to information such as syndrome differences, qubit placements, and temporal boundaries within the simulated rounds of syndrome measurements in order to train the local decoders for arbitrarily sized quantum surface codes and arbitrary numbers of rounds of syndrome measurements. Following a local decoding stage in which a large number of data errors have been corrected by a local decoder, error correction for remaining errors may continue with a more efficient global decoding stage.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2022Date of Patent: December 10, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Chamberland, Luis Goncalves, Prasahnt Sivarajah, Eric Christopher Peterson, Sebastian Johannes Grimberg

Publication number: 20240310561Abstract: An exemplary method and system are disclosed comprising retroreflective metastructures formed with a plurality of metasurface arrays configured to destructively cancel or interfere, in part, with one another to reduce specular mode associated scattering or reflection. In some embodiments, the retroreflective metastructures are formed by a combination of metasurfaces with different lattice spacings that can exhibit enhanced bandwidth and angular range at near-grazing angles to provide enhanced retroreflective electromagnetic responses.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2022Publication date: September 19, 2024Inventors: Kenneth Wayne Allen, Daniel J.P.

Patent number: 12057859Abstract: Techniques for implementing a local neural network and global decoding scheme for quantum error correction of circuit-level noise within quantum surface codes such that the decoding schemes have fast decoding throughout and low latency times for quantum algorithms are disclosed. A local neural network decoder may be pre-trained via a supervised learning technique such that the local neural network decoder may be applied for error correction in the presence of circuit-level noise in arbitrarily sized surface codes in a local decoding stage. Prior to a global decoding stage, an intermediate stage may be used to remove vertical pairs of highlighted vertices within the matching graph, which may reduce a syndrome density within the matching graph to allow for faster decoding at the global decoding stage. Such an intermediate stage may include application of a syndrome collapse or vertical cleanup technique.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2022Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Chamberland, Luis Goncalves, Prasahnt Sivarajah, Eric Christopher Peterson, Sebastian Johannes Grimberg
