  • Publication number: 20250050065
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for releasing a catheter from an implant may include a catheter comprising first and second elongate elements, first and second elongate element lumens, a tissue anchor lumen, apertures corresponding to each of the lumens, and retaining portions between adjacent apertures. The first elongate element may extend out of its lumen through the first elongate element aperture, across the retaining portion transversely with respect to a longitudinal axis, and towards the second elongate element aperture. The first elongate element may then extend into the second elongate element aperture, loop over the second elongate element, and extend back across the retaining portion and into the first elongate element lumen. In some instances, the second elongate element is retracted to uncouple the first and second elongate elements from each other and to open a channel for the release of tethered tissue anchors.

  • Patent number: 12205348
    Abstract: Rather than randomly selecting neural networks to classify a media file, the conductor can determine which neural network engines (from the conductor ecosystem of neural networks) are the best candidates to classify a particular portion/segment of the media file (e.g., audio file, image file, video files). The best candidate neural network engine(s) can depend on the nature of the input media and the characteristics of the neural network engines. In object recognition and identification, certain neural networks can classify vehicles better than others, while another group of neural networks can classify structures better. The conductor can take out the guess work and construct in real-time an inter-classifier neural network using one or more layers selected from one or more pre-trained neural network, based on attribute(s) of the media file, to classify the media file.

  • Patent number: 12095917
    Abstract: An approach is provided for distributing a root key to a hardware security module (HSM) of an HSM cluster. A signed first command is transmitted to a source HSM to create a master key. A fingerprint of the master key is received in a response signed by the source HSM using a module signing key hardcoded into the source HSM at manufacturing time. A second command is transmitted to a first HSM to generate an importer key pair. A request is transmitted to the source HSM to create and export a wrapped master key. The master key wrapped with a transport key is received. The wrapped master key is transmitted to the first HSM. The master key is activated in the first HSM.
