  • Publication number: 20220210171
    Abstract: System and methods for cross-domain training and updating of models to perform classification and scoring of network data/traffic are described. Information used to build deep machine learning models about traffic in one domain is used to improve the modeling in another domain. By using cross-domain learning, labeled data from another domain can be used to improve the detection rate and false positive rate of an analytic model in another domain. Because of the construction of the models, and because the models, and not the data are transferred, there is no disclosure of personally identifiable or otherwise restricted information.

  • Patent number: 5189813
    Abstract: An improved fluid bed furnace is disclosed which is useful in heat treating products or particles which are to undergo a change due to exposure to high temperatures. The bed is heated by lamps effectively buried in the bed radiating energy to the fluidized particles. In one embodiment, the lamps are protected by a ceramic tube with the lamps heating the tubes which in turn heat the fluid bed.

  • Patent number: 4752061
    Abstract: A fluidized bed for treating of product at high temperatures (1100.degree. C. to 1300.degree. C.) is possible, while overcoming problems such as slow start up times and contamination due to combustion gas. The fluidized bed uses an inert gas introduced to the bed to cause fluidization of refractory particles. Exposed surfaces or boundary layers of the bed are heated by infrared radiation produced exterior to the bed and absorbed by exposed particles of the bed. The thermal characteristics of the bed insure rapid dissipation of the absorbed energy. Electrically powered lamps produce the radiation and preferably are high intensity shortwave infrared radiation lamps. The lamps remain out of direct contact with the bed preferrably separated by a quartz wall or screen.
