Patents by Inventor Daniel A. Shiley

Daniel A. Shiley has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10859556
    Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing an unknown sample are disclosed. The system includes at least one subsystem to obtain molecular information about the sample and at least one other subsystem to obtain elemental information about the sample. The system also includes a data collection component to collect and combine the information from the subsystems to create combined analytical information and a multivariate model that relates known attributes to information previously generated with at least two analytical systems that are the same types of systems as the at least two analytical subsystems. A prediction engine applies the multivariate model to the combined analytical information to produce predictions of attributes in the unknown sample.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 9, 2018
    Date of Patent: December 8, 2020
    Assignee: Malvern PANalytical Inc.

  • Patent number: 10107788
    Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing an unknown geological sample are disclosed. The system may include at least two analytical subsystems, and each of the at least two analytical subsystems provides different information about the geological sample. The data sets from various analytic subsystems are combined for further analysis, and the system includes a chemometric calibration model that relates geological attributes from analytical data previously obtained from at least two analytical techniques. A prediction engine applies the chemometric calibration model to the combined analytical information from the geological sample to predict specific geological attributes in the unknown geological sample.
