Publication number: 20240249147Abstract: A system for Positive and Unlabeled (PU) learning is tailored specifically for a deep learning framework. The system incorporates an adaptive asymmetric loss function based on Modified Logistic Regression paired with a simple linear transform of an output. When only positive and unlabeled images are available for training, the system results in an inductive classifier where no estimate of the class prior is required.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2024Publication date: July 25, 2024Inventors: Kristen Jaskie, Nolan Vaughn, Vivek Sivaraman Narayanaswamy, Sahba Zaare, Joseph Marvin, Andreas Spanias

Publication number: 20240184591Abstract: A host system includes a device driver with application-specific settings for a hosted application. Input data is generated by one or more tablet devices at a client computer system. A host-side data transfer application receives the input data and forwards it to the host-side driver, which sends the input data to the hosted application. The tablet data sent to the hosted application is configured according to application-specific settings of the host-side driver, which may support multiple application programming interfaces. A dedicated driver-to-driver connection may also be used to transmit data between client-side and host-side drivers. In another aspect, a host sends an identifier of a hosted application currently in use to a client-side driver, which uses that identifier to look up and apply application-specific settings to tablet data sent to the hosted application. This can eliminate the need for a host-side driver while still allowing application-specific settings for hosted applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2024Publication date: June 6, 2024Applicant: Wacom Co., Ltd.Inventors: Joseph Vaughn Sliger, Kenton Jay Loftus, Jarrod Dunnihoo, Konrad Wilhelm Pollmann

Patent number: 10333820Abstract: Systems and methods are described for identifying, tracking, and customizing dependencies between components of a computing environment. By providing greater insight and transparency into dependencies, the systems and methods can facilitate modeling the underlying architecture of applications and computer hardware. As a result, IT personnel can better track relationships between components. Custom filtering tools can also provide IT personnel with tools to switch from different types of dependency views that focus on application-oriented views, hardware-oriented views, or other custom views. Model annotation tools can also enable IT personnel to customize a dependency model to reflect real-world application and hardware monitoring conditions.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2012Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: Quest Software Inc.Inventors: Xiangrui Wang, Joseph Vaughn Rustad, Gia Duong Diep

Publication number: 20180121557Abstract: A system and method of maintaining community safety standards within an Internet community. A balance is achieved between open communication and costly supervision of an immersive online community by use of automated algorithms, human supervision and peer monitoring. An automated filtering process is used in conjunction with an evaluation and penalty process. The filter is enhanced over time. A peer-to-peer control and peer-to-administrator reporting scheme complete the system and methods to synergistically maintain safety and set standards within the community.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2017Publication date: May 3, 2018Inventors: Mark A.

Patent number: 9830439Abstract: Techniques for securing a computing device are provided. An example method detecting contact with a touchscreen of the computing device, monitoring the contact with the touchscreen to determine whether the contact matches a predetermined pattern of movement, and performing one or more predetermined actions responsive to the contact with the touchscreen matching the predetermined pattern. The predetermined pattern includes a plurality of predetermined movements separated by pivot points. The pivot points represent a transition point in the predetermined pattern from a first type of movement to a second type of movement. The contact with the touchscreen can be broken at one or more of at least one pivot point, between a first instance of the first type of movement and a second instance of the first type of movement, or between a first instance of the second type of movement and a second instance of the second type of movement.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2015Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Assignee: QUALCOMM, IncorporatedInventors: Joseph Vaughn, Jean-Laurent Ngoc Huynh, Shih-Chieh Su
