Patent number: 11589672Abstract: A flip top table includes a leg assembly supporting an axle defining a rotation axis extending in a longitudinal direction. A strike plate is non-rotatably secured to the axle, with the strike plate having first and second circumferentially spaced and radially extending stop surfaces. A worksurface is rotatably supported on the axle and includes first and second circumferentially spaced stop surfaces. The worksurface is rotatable about the rotation axis between a use position and a stowed position.

Patent number: 11429915Abstract: Systems and methods for predicting feature values in a matrix are disclosed. In example embodiments, a server accesses a matrix, the matrix having multiple dimensions, one dimension of the matrix representing features, and one dimension of the matrix representing entities. The server separates the matrix into multiple submatrices along a first dimension, each submatrix including all cells in the matrix for a set of values in the first dimension. The server provides the multiple submatrices to multiple machines. The server computes, using each machine, a correlation between values in at least one second dimension of the matrix and a value for a preselected feature in the matrix, the correlation being used to predict the value for the preselected feature based on other values along the at least one second dimension. The server provides an output representing the computed correlation.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2017Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Gio Borje, Benjamin John McCann, David DiCato, Jerry Lin, Skylar Payne, Apoorv Khandelwal, Nadeem Anjum
