  • Patent number: 11815630
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for performing remote sensing using WMA. Embodiments include modulating an interrogation signal, transmitting the interrogation signal to a remote vibrating target, and receiving, at a first port of a WMA interferometer, a reflected signal. Embodiments also include splitting, by a first beam splitter, the reflected signal into first and second portions propagating down first and second waveguides, delaying, by a delay element, a phase of the reflected signal, and spatially phase shifting the reflected signal. Embodiments may further include splitting, by a second beam splitter, the first and second portions of the reflected signal into third and fourth portions propagating down the first and second waveguides, detecting an intensity difference between a first lobe and a second lobe of the third portion of the reflected signal, and calculating a Doppler frequency based on the intensity difference.

  • Publication number: 20210082046
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for computing optimized trading instructions, comprising applying a plurality of prediction models to compute trading instructions predicted to produce optimal outcomes based on received trading observations. Each prediction model is optimized, using a Monte Carlo algorithm, to predict optimal outcomes for a respective trading pattern based on a respective Data Generating Processes (DGPs). Weights are assigned to the prediction models according to probability scores computed for them according to mapping of the received trading observations to the DGPs associated with the prediction models and aggregated trading instructions are computed by aggregating, based on the weights, the trading instructions computed by the prediction models.
