Patent number: 12298216Abstract: A particle sensor for measuring size and concentration properties of particles in a gas includes a bipolar diffusion charger configured to charge particles within a received gas sample by the collision of the received particles with and transfer of charge from both positive and negative ions concurrently. At least one electrometer detects the charge of received particles thereby charged. The net, positive, negative or total charge on the bipolarly charged particles has a low sensitivity to variations in the absolute rate of charge generation in the bipolar diffusion charger. A sensor for a ratio of ion charge mobilities in a bipolar diffusion charger employs an ion trap between the bipolar diffusion charger and at least one electrometer.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2020Date of Patent: May 13, 2025Assignee: CAMBRIDGE ENTERPRISE LIMITEDInventors: Robert Nishida, Tyler James Johnson, Simone Hochgreb, Adam Meyer Boies

Publication number: 20250147757Abstract: A method or system for testing and benchmarking commits made on source code. The system extracts commits from a history of a first code history that records a sequence of commits made thereon. The extracted commits are then combined into a sequence of patches, each of which includes changes made during consecutive commits. The system also establishes a connection with a system under test (SUT) having a second code repository corresponding to a historical version of the first code repository before the extracted commits were made, and sequentially applies the sequence of the patches to the second code repository. Performance of the SUT is monitored during the application of the sequence of the patches to determine whether the SUT performs as expected after the application of each patch.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2025Publication date: May 8, 2025Inventors: Julian Thome, James Johnson, Isaac Dawson, Dinesh Bolkensteyn, Michael Henriksen, Mark Art

Publication number: 20250117194Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for generating context engine outputs by utilizing an interpreter purpose-built to execute code generated by large language models. For example, the disclosed systems generate computer code executable for responding to a query by utilizing a large language model. In addition, the disclosed systems execute the model-generated computer code utilizing an interpreter integrated with the context engine that further includes swappable logic interchangeable across multiple executors. Moreover, the disclosed systems can further generate as part of executing the computer code utilizing the interpreter, a first context engine output by implementing the interpreter at a first executor.

Publication number: 20250103621Abstract: In an approach to improve prompt variations to enhance user-based experiences while interacting with artificial intelligent (AI) systems, embodiments generate variations of the prompts associated with the initial input by automatically leveraging machine learning techniques and collect the prompts from a user resulting from an interaction with an artificial intelligent (AI) system. Further, embodiments, identify a heuristic to organize suggestions and the variations of the prompts, and determine and utilize the heuristic to organize the variations of the prompts in systematic categories to produce an efficient display of the variations of the prompts, in a graphic user interface (GUI), for the user to view. Additionally, embodiments, update the variations of the prompts based on identified interaction data from the user, and dynamically output the updated variations of the prompts in response to the identified and collected user data.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 27, 2025Inventors: Qian Pan, Hyo Jin Do, Zahra Ashktorab, Michael Desmond, James Johnson, Casey Dugan

Patent number: 12161604Abstract: An enteral feeding tubing connector comprises a body, a bore extending through the body, and a collet slidably disposed in the bore at a first end of the body. The collet is dimensioned to receive and engage a portion of tubing inserted into the collet, and is configured to resist withdrawal of the tubing from the bore and body upon application of force to the tubing that moves the collet out of the bore. A lock is provided on the first end of the body, and is configured to selectively engage the collet and prevent movement of the collet outward relative to the body. A tubing connection is provided at a second, opposite end of the body, the tubing connection providing fluid communication between another portion of tubing, the bore extending through the body, and the portion of tubing inserted into the collet.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2023Date of Patent: December 10, 2024Inventors: Michael R.
