  • FALL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20190076682
    Abstract: The present system for fall restraint includes a mounting frame connected to a trigger mechanism and firing blocks, with a trigger cable extending through apertures in the mounting frame and trigger mechanism. Sudden movement by a user, such as a fall, actuates the trigger mechanism to trigger the firing blocks. The firing blocks are loaded with anchors and firing cartridges. Triggering the firing blocks causes the cartridges to fire, propelling the anchors into an anchoring surface, such as a roof. Because the user is connected to the trigger cable, once the anchors deploy the user is anchored to the roof and their fall arrested.

  • Optimized statistical machine translation system with rapid adaptation capability
    Patent number: 9959271
    Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for statistical machine translation. In particular, the disclosed technologies include extensions to conventional machine translation pipelines: the use of multiple domain-specific and non-domain-specific dynamic language translation models and language models; cluster-based language models; and large-scale discriminative training. Incremental update technologies are also disclosed for use in updating a machine translation system in four areas: word alignment; translation modeling; language modeling; and parameter estimation. A mechanism is also disclosed for training and utilizing a runtime machine translation quality classifier for estimating the quality of machine translations without the benefit of reference translations.
