Patent number: 11170215Abstract: Captured samples of a physical structure or other scene are mapped to a predetermined multi-dimensional coordinate space, and spatially-adjacent samples are organized into array cells representing subspaces thereof. Each cell is classified according to predetermined target-identifying criteria for the samples of the cell. A cluster of spatially-contiguous cells of common classification, peripherally bounded by cells of different classification, is constructed, and a boundary demarcation is defined from the peripheral contour of the cluster. The boundary demarcation is overlaid upon a visual display of the physical scene, thereby visually demarcating the boundaries of a detected target of interest.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2017Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: REALITY ANALYTICS, INC.Inventor: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki

Patent number: 10482348Abstract: A system and method are provided for discriminating and tracking a coherently structured feature dynamically defined in evolving manner within a migratory medium. A data set is captured for a plurality of physical points defined within a multi-dimensional physical space, in terms of a plurality of scalar parameter values. At least one pre-selected target feature type is established, as is a scalar field predefined by at least one of the scalar parameters. A sparse set of key points is selectively generated a within the scalar field. Each key point is associated with one of the physical points and descriptive information adaptively determined therefor from the data content within a neighborhood of the physical point coinciding therewith. At least one predetermined feature-based operation is executed responsive to the descriptive information of the key points as a surrogate for execution generally on the data set.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2018Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: SR2 Group, LLCInventors: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki, John J.

Patent number: 10475141Abstract: A system is provided for event-based monitoring of a subject's well-being within an unattended setting. A plurality of sensors are disposed within the setting for sensing disparate events, and an analytics processing portion is coupled to the sensors to collectively acquire sensing data therefrom, and map a plurality of sensed data points for a selected combination of disparate events to a conduct adaptively characterized for the subject. The mapping occurs according to a set of pre-established reference event patterns, relative to which each characterized conduct is screened for excessive aberration. The analytics processing portion actuates generation of a graphic user interface displaying at least one reporting page. The reporting page contains for each characterized conduct certain graphic indicia determined responsive to the screening thereof.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2015Date of Patent: November 12, 2019Assignee: Empoweryu, Inc.Inventors: Laura Janet McIntosh, Jeffrey Mark Sieracki

Patent number: 10235588Abstract: A system is provided for adaptively conformed imaging of work pieces having disparate configurations, which comprises a mount unit for holding at least one work piece, and an imaging unit for capturing images of the work piece held by the mount unit. At least one manipulator unit is coupled to selectively manipulate at least one of the mount and imaging units for relative displacement therebetween. A controller coupled to automatically actuate the manipulator and imaging units executes scene segmentation about the held work piece, which spatially defines at least one zone of operation in peripherally conformed manner about the work piece. The controller also executes an acquisition path mapping for the work piece, wherein a sequence of spatially offset acquisition points are mapped within the zone of operation, with each acquisition point defining a vantage point for the imaging unit to capture an image of the work piece from.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2016Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: Reality Analytics, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki, John J.

Patent number: 9973398Abstract: A system and method are provided for distinguishing between a plurality of remote sites accessed through a network interconnection by a reference site based upon envelope characteristics of communication signals transmitted therebetween. Communications signals transmitted during an interconnected session established between one of the remote sites and the reference site are time-captured in a plurality of data segments. The time-captured segments are parsed to selectively generate for each the interconnected remote sites an envelope signal indicative of at least one resource allocation response thereof during the interconnection session, the envelope signal being defined by values of at least a first predetermined envelope parameter acquired from the time-captured segments. Based on the envelope signal, a characteristic signature is established for each interconnected remote site to be identified.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2012Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: Reality Analytics, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki, John J.

Patent number: 9829279Abstract: A system and method for aiming and alignment of a shell firing weapon includes a portable aiming unit that may be located in close proximity to the weapon that includes a reference head for emitting and/or receiving at least one energy ray. The portable aiming unit can be aligned to a reference azimuth, either absolute or relative. A sighting unit is also included in the system and removably mounted to the weapon. The sighting unit includes a reference head that is complementary to the reference head of the portable aiming unit. The at least one energy ray established between the portable aiming unit and the sighting unit provides an accurate relative reference of directing the weapons fire and monitoring linear and angular displacement of the weapon as it is fired so that corrections can be made in aiming the weapon in response thereto.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2015Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Inventor: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki

Patent number: 9813310Abstract: A system and method are provided for discriminating the nature of traffic flowing through a computer network. Various types of traffic are distinguished. For example, traffic sourced by a software application that generates them may be distinguished. The problem of detecting malicious traffic either originating outside a target network, or inside a target network from a compromised computer is addressed, as is the problem of distinguishing malicious traffic from legitimate web surfing or other applications activity. Traffic distinctions are made based on signal envelope characteristics in such manner as to preserve robust performance even when the subject traffic is encrypted.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2014Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: Reality Analytics, Inc.Inventor: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki

Patent number: 9070012Abstract: A system and method are provided for uncued discrimination of a bated spatial pattern in an image electronically rendered as a frame of image data points. A reference unit establishes a general dictionary of predefined multi-dimensional reference functions, and a candidate detection unit pre-screens the frame of image data points to identify therein at least one candidate grouping of image data points collectively indicative of a predetermined spatial pattern. A sparse approximation unit coupled to the candidate detection and reference units computes for each candidate grouping an optimal reference function defined with respect to the general dictionary. The optimal reference function of each candidate grouping is projected onto a corresponding portion of the image data frame defined thereby. Each projected portion is extracted from the image data frame to leave a residual image data frame which, during iterative execution, provides the image data frame for the immediately succeeding iteration.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2013Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: SR2 Group, LLCInventors: Jeffrey Mark Sieracki, John J.
