Patent number: 10223746Abstract: Certain implementations of the disclosed technology may include systems, methods, and apparatus for inferring the performance of rejected credit applicants using non-tradeline data. According to an example implementation, a method is provided for evaluating factors that may indicate financial distress and/or future credit performance associated with an applicant. In an example implementation, the method may include receiving applicant information associated with an applicant of a credit application. Responsive to a query, the method may include receiving by at least one processor, non-tradeline data related to the applicant. The method includes scoring, using a predictive scoring model, and based at least in part on the non-tradeline data, a prediction of the applicant's future credit performance. The method includes generating, based on the scoring, an estimated credit performance of the applicant over a predetermined period; and outputting an indication of the estimated credit performance.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2015Date of Patent: March 5, 2019Assignee: LexisNexis Risk Solutions FL Inc.Inventors: James Christiansen, Eric Graves, Lea Smith, Darrin Udean

Patent number: 10049903Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a heater are provided that generally include forming a laminate having a dielectric layer, a first double-sided adhesive dielectric layer, and a conductive layer. Next, a circuit pattern is created into the conductive layer, and then the circuit pattern is covered with a second double-sided adhesive dielectric layer. The second double-sided adhesive dielectric layer is covered with a sacrificial layer, and then the heater is formed, the heater comprising the dielectric layer, the first double-sided adhesive dielectric layer, the conductive layer, and the second double-sided adhesive dielectric layer. Subsequently, the sacrificial layer is removed.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2012Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: Watlow Electric Manufacturing CompanyInventors: Kevin Ptasienski, Allen Norman Boldt, Janet Lea Smith, Cal Thomas Swanson, Mohammad Nosrati, Kevin Robert Smith

Publication number: 20180197757Abstract: A method of manufacturing a heater includes forming a first laminate having a first double-sided adhesive dielectric layer, a sacrificial layer, and a conductive layer. The first double sided adhesive layer is disposed between the sacrificial layer and the conductive layer. Next, a circuit pattern is created into the conductive layer, followed by covering the circuit pattern with a second double-sided adhesive dielectric layer. Thereafter, the second double-sided adhesive dielectric layer is covered with a dielectric layer to form a second laminate. Finally, the sacrificial layer is completely removed to form the heater comprising the first double-sided adhesive dielectric layer, the circuit pattern, the second double-sided adhesive layer, and the dielectric layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2018Publication date: July 12, 2018Applicant: Watlow Electric Manufacturing CompanyInventors: Kevin PTASIENSKI, Allen Norman BOLDT, Janet Lea SMITH, Cal Thomas SWANSON, Mohammad NOSRATI, Kevin Robert SMITH
