  • Patent number: 11789915
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for improving anomaly detection in timeseries datasets. Different machine learning models may be trained to process specific types of timeseries data efficiently and accurately. Thus, selecting a proper machine learning model for identifying anomalies in a specific set of timeseries data may greatly improve accuracy and efficiency of anomaly detection. Another way to improve anomaly detection is to process a multitude of timeseries datasets for a time period (e.g., 90 days) to detect anomalies from those timeseries datasets and then correlate those detected anomalies by generating an anomaly timeseries dataset and identifying anomalies within the anomaly timeseries dataset. Yet another way to improve anomaly detection is to divide a dataset into multiple datasets based on a type of anomaly detection requested.

  • Patent number: 11783046
    Abstract: Anomaly detection in computing environments is disclosed herein. An example method includes receiving an unstructured input stream of data instances from the computing environment, the unstructured input stream being time stamped; categorizing the data instances of the unstructured input stream of data instances, the data instances comprising at least one principle value and a set of categorical attributes determined through machine learning; generating anomaly scores for each of the data instances collected over a period of time; and detecting a change in the categorical attribute that is indicative of an anomaly.

  • Publication number: 20230316112
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include at least one processor that receives a data set of a data stream from a data source, where the data set includes a time-varying data points. The processor determines event observations associated with data points of the time-varying data points based on a detection model to identify types of the event observations, including: i) anomalies, ii) change-points, iii) patterns, or iv) outliers. The processor generates anomaly records in an event data store based on the event observations and automatically generates event records for at least one of the anomaly records based on variables of at least one dimension of the time-varying data points, where the event record links one or more event observations. The processor automatically applies changes in the event record to each event observation of the one or more event observations based on the linking by the event record.

  • Patent number: 11764509
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed allowing relative movement between downhole tools while remaining in electrical communication. In one example, a first tool comprising a first connector body is configured for connecting to a second connector body of a second tool. A sliding connector housing has an electrical strip axially arranged along the connector housing, wherein the first or second connector body is moveably secured to the connector housing in sliding electrical contact with the electrical strip. The first and second connector bodies are releasably connectable to each other, thereby allowing relative movement between the first and second tools via the connector housing while maintaining electrical and fluid communication between the first and second tools.

  • Patent number: 11752015
    Abstract: A failsafe for a transdermal apparatus for a prosthetic appendage can include a first plate, a second plate, and a breakaway connector. The first plate can have a central axis, a proximal portion, and a distal end. The distal end can be opposite the proximal portion, and the distal end can be securable with a prosthetic external to skin and can be configured to simulate an appendage of a patient. The second plate can be aligned with the central axis and can include a proximal end and a distal portion. The proximal end can be securable to a transdermal implant, and can extend proximally from the second plate. The distal portion can be opposite the proximal end, and the distal portion can be configured to interface with the proximal portion of the first plate. The breakaway connector can be couplable within the second plate and the first plate.

  • Publication number: 20230212084
    Abstract: The present invention allows for better control over strength in concrete mixes and mix designs, while minimizing the over-use of cement and promoting sustainability within the industry. Disclosed are novel method and system which employ a diagnostic delta data (DDD) curve, or, in other words, data that displays a curvilinear relationship when plotted on a visual graph, as obtained by considering the differences (e.g., subtractive differences or ratios) as between (i) target slump and target (or maximum) water content, and (ii) slump and water content values as determined using an automated slump monitoring system which measures slump and water content in the concrete mix during delivery. This DDD curve can then be compared to monitored delta slump and delta water content for later or other deliveries, such that adjustments can be made to the concrete mix or mix design, in a manner that encourages avoidance of cement over-dosing or over-prescription.
