  • Publication number: 20230336438
    Abstract: The technology disclosed provides an interactive GUI driven by natural language questions and intuitive controls that support follow-up queries. One features a table-graph that links responsive series of data to graph elements. Individual rows of data in the table can be selected or deselected for display. The rows can be displayed in a single graph for individual graphs. Averages and other statistical measures can be calculated and graphed responsive to selectable controls, without formulas for series calculations. Another feature is so-called Liveboards that include multiple natural language questions and data views produced from executing queries derived from the questions, adapted to data available to a particular user, especially when the user's organization is different from an origin organization that generated the Liveboard.

  • Patent number: 11093488
    Abstract: The usefulness of a search engine depends on the relevance of the result set it returns. Search problems in a particular domain require an understanding of the user's intent that traditional search methods lack, including a sense of time, domain and situational context, user preferences and the history of previous searches in the domain of interest. In an age in which speaking to technology is becoming the norm and user expectations are skyrocketing, semantic search is more important than ever. The disclosed technology describes systems and methods for implementing natural language search with semantic mapping and classification. The technology further discloses systems and methods for including social search, making it possible for users to include input from friends in search results. The disclosed technology offers a customizable flexible technology designed to be taught about a domain and to be able to systematically adapt to its unique needs.

  • Publication number: 20190034540
    Abstract: The usefulness of a search engine depends, among other things, on ease of use in ad hoc queries. This is particularly challenging in security and operations domains. One thing that makes it challenging is late binding schemas that encourage revision of schemas on the fly. The technology disclosed has been applied in security and operations domains, with late binding schemas, to translate domain specific natural language queries into executable search queries.

  • Patent number: 9720570
    Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to identification of future activity options. In particular, it relates to identifying future activity options that are similar to a selected future activity, similar to past activities, that meet descriptive language criteria, that form compatible sequences of activities, or that form compatible multi-day sequences of activities. The technology disclosed also relates to rapid and convenient sorting through activity options.

  • Patent number: 4982769
    Abstract: A package comprising a package container structure having an open end leading into an interior chamber therein, a package lid structure mounted over the open end of the package container structure in generally sealed relation with the interior chamber thereof so as to be moved into opening relation thereto, and a device for use with a medicament vial disposed within the sealed interior chamber. The device and package container structure have interengageable elements disposed out of interengagement when the device is disposed within the sealed interior chamber operable when the package lid structure is moved into opening relation and the device is moved out of the open end of the interior chamber to be moved into interengagement. The device and package container structure with the interengaging elements thereof interengaged provide a generally sealed interior space including the interior chamber within which a medicament vial is contained in cooperating relation with the device.

  • Patent number: 4834149
    Abstract: A method of utilizing an apparatus of the type comprising a vial container hazardous material in the vial container in a condition requiring a diluent to be mixed therewith to form the liquid solution, and an assemblage carried by the vial container for providing (1) a sealed medicament chamber within the vial container within which the hazardous material is disposed, (2) a filter vented control chamber and (3) a sealed variable volume control chamber between the vented control chamber and the medicament chamber. The method is such as to enable an open end of a syringe needle of a diluent syringe having a syringe chamber containing diluent in communication therewith to be moved into and withdrawn successively from the chambers so as to mix the diluent with the hazardous material. The method also contemplates procedures for separately refilling a dosage syringe and for relieving any residual pressure in the vial chamber with the use of an empty syringe prior to initial or final refilling of a dosage syringe.
