Abstract: A method of assessing operational risk based upon ocular information of a subject includes providing a video camera recording a close-up view of a subject's eye. The ocular information is processed to identify changes in ocular signals of the subject through the use of convolutional neural networks. Changes in ocular signals are evaluated from the convolutional neural networks by a machine learning algorithm. A duty fitness result is determined for the subject where the duty fitness result is either fit for duty, unfit for duty or more information needed. The results can then be displayed to the subject and/or to a supervisor.

Abstract: A method of discovering relationships between iris physiology and cognitive states and/or emotional states of a subject includes providing a computing device and a video camera to record a close-up view of the subject's eye. A first light is held to the lower eyelid skin and a second light a distance away illuminating the stroma of the eye. The first and second light are electronically synced together and configured to flash alternatively. The user engages in a plurality of tasks while recording ocular information which is processed to identify correlations between the responses in the iris musculature and the distortions in the stroma through the use optimized algorithms. One can then identifying at least one predictive distortion is identified in the stroma capturable solely with a visible-spectrum camera correlating to a predicted responses in the iris musculature.

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and computing devices that execute a storage operation, without journaling the storage operation in a log, and withhold from a file system a list of freed inodes including an indication of an inode freed as a result of the execution of the storage operation. A consistency point operation is then initiated that retrieves storage operations logged as journal entries in the log and commits a result of each of the storage operations to data storage devices. A list of available inodes is updated based on the list of freed inodes, when the consistency point operation is determined to be complete. This technology reduces the number of storage operations that are required to be journaled to maintain consistency of a file system, thereby reducing the runtime resources required to facilitate the journaling and replay resource required to replay the storage operations following a recovery.

Abstract: An aircraft nose gear-mounted flight control device promotes aircraft stability during low-speed phases of flight, including take-offs and landings. The flight control device is an operable airfoil secured to an aircraft nose gear, either to a vertical support strut or to a wheel axle thereof. The airfoil is deployed when the nose gear is deployed, and is retracted when the nose gear is retracted. Upon deployment, the airfoil is effective to at least provide aircraft pitch control. In some configurations, the airfoil deploys as two separate but mirror-imaged left and right airfoil components that move in concert to provide pitch control. In other configurations, the airfoil components move at relatively different angular rates and amounts to provide both pitch and roll control. The entire airfoil may be pivotal for pitch control, or may instead be fixed, but have moveable flaps or flap-like portions that provide pitch control.
