  • Dock management system with GFCI failure indication
    Patent number: 11437805
    Abstract: In a method of warning of a hazardous electrical condition at a dock with wiring coupled to a voltage source via a dock breaker, an electric voltage between a ground and at least one of the dock frame or the water is detected. A plurality of voltage values of the electric voltage is stored. When at least two successive voltage values of the plurality voltage values exceeds a baseline safe voltage by a preset margin, then a shock warning signal is asserted, a dock breaker is opened and a shock warning indication is transmitted to a remote unit via a communication chipset. When at a voltage is sensed in the dock wiring system after the dock breaker has been opened, then a faulty dock breaker warning indication is transmitted to the remote unit via the communication chipset.

  • CHEMICAL VAPOR CONDENSATION DEPOSITION OF PHOTORESIST FILMS
    Publication number: 20220262625
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein include methods of depositing a metal oxo photoresist using chemical vapor condensation deposition processes. In an example, a method for forming a photoresist layer over a substrate in a vacuum chamber includes providing a metal precursor vapor into the vacuum chamber from an ampoule maintained at a first temperature. The method further includes providing an oxidant vapor into the vacuum chamber, where a reaction between the metal precursor vapor and the oxidant vapor results in the formation of the photoresist layer on a surface of the substrate. The photoresist layer is a metal oxo containing material. The substrate is maintained at a second temperature less than the first temperature during the formation of the photoresist layer on the surface of the substrate.

  • Utterance quality estimation
    Patent number: 11416777
    Abstract: Techniques herein relate to improving quality of classification models for differentiating different user intents by improving the quality of training samples used to train the classification models. Pairs of user intents that are difficult to differentiate by classification models trained using the given training samples are identified based upon distinguishability scores (e.g., F-scores). For each of the identified pairs of intents, pairs of training samples each including a training sample associated with a first intent and a training sample associated with a second intent in the pair of intents are ranked based upon a similarity score between the two training samples in each pair of training samples. A particular pair of training samples with a highest similarity score is selected and provided as output with a suggestion for modifying the particular pair of training samples.

  • SUSPENDED SLEEVE ASSEMBLY COMPRISING A COMPRESSION SLEEVE AND A SUSPENSION STAND
    Publication number: 20220249261
    Abstract: A suspended sleeve assembly includes a suspension stand and a compression sleeve. An upper portion of the compression sleeve is attached onto the suspension stand, but a lower portion of the compression sleeve is unattached from the suspension stand. The suspended sleeve assembly can also include a support stand. The suspended sleeve assembly can be used to shape a prosthetic socket. The compression sleeve applies a circumferential pressure onto the prosthetic socket as the prosthetic socket is being inserted into the compression sleeve as a patient steps into the compression sleeve and applies at least a portion of body weight to the compression sleeve. The prosthetic socket can be heated and shaped by hand, so that it fits the residual limb of the patient. The suspended sleeve assembly can also be used to shape other prosthetic components, such as a negative plaster cast.
