Patent number: 11954565Abstract: A technology is described for automating deployment of a machine learning model. An example method may include receiving, via a graphical user interface, credentials for connecting to a data store containing a plurality of datasets and connecting to the data store using the credentials. A selection of a target metric to predict using the machine learning model can be received, via the graphical user interface, and datasets included in the plurality of datasets that correlate to the target metric can be identified by analyzing the datasets to identify an association between the target metric and data contained within the datasets. The datasets can be input to the machine learning model to train the machine learning model to generate predictions of the target metric, and the machine learning model can be deployed to computing resources in a service provider environment to generate predictions associated with the target metric.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2019Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: QLIKTECH INTERNATIONAL ABInventors: Killian B. Dent, James M. Friedman, Allan D. Johnson, Shauna J. Moran, Tyler P. Cooper, Chris K. Knoch, Nicholas R. Magnuson, Daniel J. Wallace

Patent number: 10018356Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the generation of steam via the use of a combustion process to produce heat and, in one embodiment, to a device, system and/or method that enables one to control one or more process parameters of a combustion process so as to yield at least one desirable change in at least one downstream parameter. In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a system and/or method for controlling at least one process parameter of a combustion process so as to yield at least one desirable change in at least one downstream process parameter associated with one or more of a wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) unit, a particulate collection device and/or control of additives thereto and/or a nitrogen oxide control device and/or control of additives thereto and/or additives to the system.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: The Babcock & Wilcox CompanyInventors: Daniel B. Johnson, Shannon R. Brown

Publication number: 20140112834Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the cleaning of a flue gas and, in one embodiment, to a device, system and method that mitigates and/or prevents slurry deposition at the flue inlet to a wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) unit in order to keep the inlet dry and minimize deposition (e.g., deposition scale) at the flue inlet to the WFGD tower. In one embodiment, a wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) unit, system and/or method according to the present invention comprises, among other features, a scale prevention system comprising a plenum air device and/or forced-air box located proximate the inlet transition zone. In another embodiment, a wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) unit, system and/or method according to the present invention comprises, among other features, a scale prevention system comprising at least one chill plate located proximate the inlet transition zone.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2013Publication date: April 24, 2014Inventor: Daniel B Johnson

Patent number: 6460477Abstract: An improved sponson and rigid inflatable boats incorporating the same. The sponson includes a non-inflatable buoyant component, such as closed-cell polyethylene, and an inflatable buoyant component, such as one or more inflatable tubes. The boat includes a rigid hull having sidewalls along which one or more of the improved sponsons extend. In some embodiments, the inflatable component is removably secured to the non-inflatable component by a restraining structure. In some embodiments, the restraining structure includes straps. In some embodiments, the restraining structure includes resilient arms that bias the inflatable component within a pocket formed in the non-inflatable component.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2000Date of Patent: October 8, 2002Assignee: Wing InflatablesInventors: Bruce A. Hamilton, Michael Kroemer, Daniel B. Johnson
