Publication number: 20190019058Abstract: The present invention utilizes computer vision technologies to identify potentially malicious URLs and executable files in a computing device. In one embodiment, a Siamese convolutional neural network is trained to identify the relative similarity between image versions of two strings of text. After the training process, a list of strings that are likely to be utilized in malicious attacks are provided (e.g., legitimate URLs for popular websites). When a new string is received, it is converted to an image and then compared against the image of list of strings. The relative similarity is determined, and if the similarity rating falls below a predetermined threshold, an alert is generated indicating that the string is potentially malicious.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2017Publication date: January 17, 2019Inventors: Jonathan Woodbridge, Anjum Ahuja, Daniel Grant

Publication number: 20180357585Abstract: A system for retrieving messages of a supply process in a supply chain and methods for making and using the same. The system may bind a message received from a player of the supply chain with existing related messages, build a binding message set based on bound messages and retrieve the messages based on the binding message set. Messages issued by the player may follow frameworks generated between the player and other players of the supply chain. In accordance to a specific framework, a message between two players may have a common data element and may follow rules proscribed within the framework. Global standards or common data elements is not required, thereby permitting each participant in the supply chain to transmit messages in their preferred format.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2017Publication date: December 13, 2018Inventors: Behzad TORKIAN, Armand CASTRO, III, Daniel GRANT

Patent number: 9956311Abstract: Tissue patches and associated systems and methods are described. Certain embodiments are related to inventive systems and methods in which tissue patches can be made quickly and robustly without the use of complicated fabrication or sterilization equipment. For example, in some embodiments, tissue patches are made by applying a compressive force to a liquid medium comprising fibrinogen (and/or fibrin) between two surfaces (e.g., within a syringe or other chamber). A filter can be placed within or near the volume in which the compressive force is applied to the liquid medium such that unwanted material (e.g., water, blood cells, and the like) is passed through the filter while desirable components (e.g., fibrin, fibrinogen, and/or other desirable components) are retained by the filter to form the patch. In this way, the concentration of fibrin (and/or fibrinogen) within the liquid medium can be increased, potentially dramatically, as the compressive force is applied to the liquid-containing composition.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2016Date of Patent: May 1, 2018Assignee: Xcede Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Daniel Grant Ericson

Patent number: 9517495Abstract: An automated flushing system includes a base having a flow inlet, flow outlets and a flow manifold, the system also including solenoid valves and a pressure switch mounted upon the manifold. The flow manifold includes a main flow channel connected to the flow inlet, and auxiliary flow channels interconnecting the main flow channel with respective ones of the flow outlets so as to provide flow communication in parallel to the flow outlets from the main flow channel. Each solenoid valve extends into a respective auxiliary flow channel and is actuatable between an activated status and a deactivated status to allow and block flow communication of liquid through the respective auxiliary flow channels to a flow outlet. The pressure switch in flow communication with the flow inlet is configured to sense that the pressure of liquid entering the flow inlet is above a preset minimum before initiation of automated flushing system operation.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2016Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Inventors: John Joseph Napurano, Daniel Grant Bigelow

Publication number: 20140350648Abstract: Systems and methods for lowering the core body temperature of subject are generally described. In certain embodiments, the core body temperature of a subject can be lowered by using a heat exchanger configured to cool an intubation gas that is transported to the subject via an intubation tube. The intubation tube used to deliver cooled intubation gas to the subject can include one or more features facilitating cooling of the subject. For example, in certain embodiments, the intubation tube may include multiple lumens. In some embodiments, one of the lumens can be used to deliver the relatively cool intubation gas and a second lumen can be used to transport relatively warm gas away from the patient's lungs. In certain embodiments, the system can be configured such that water (e.g., in the form of ice particles and/or liquid mist) can be delivered to the subject via the intubation tube, which can provide an enhanced cooling effect.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2012Publication date: November 27, 2014Applicant: Dynasil Biomedical CorporationInventors: Daniel Grant Ericson, Kyle Robert Brandy, Paul Edward Glynn, Michael Edward O'Neill
