Publication number: 20250094433Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for combinatorial data outlier detection via database query statement generation. A table comprising rows and columns is received, wherein each column comprises records and a corresponding data element. A datatype to be assigned to each data element is determined, based on each column and using a first machine learning model. Conditions are generated for columns corresponding to each data element. The conditions are combined into a predetermined number of condition combinations, wherein the condition combinations comprise combinatorial sequencing of the conditions. A query statement is generated for each of the condition combinations. The table in queried with each query statement to determine query results. A data element quantity and a record quantity in the query results are determined for each query statement.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2023Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Matthew Grant Baber, Dipesh Bhattarai, Andreas Alexander Boeker, Abir Mustafa Chowdhury, Thomas Gorham, Meghan Elise Johansson, Kathryn Wyke Ruse, Mary Ivette Reyes, Kenneth Anthony Smith, II, Bryan Mitchell Wood

Publication number: 20250085553Abstract: Display devices include waveguides with in-coupling optical elements that mitigate re-bounce of in-coupled light to improve in-coupling efficiency and/or uniformity. A waveguide receives light from a light source and includes an in-coupling optical element that in-couples the received light to propagate by total internal reflection within the waveguide. The in-coupled light may undergo re-bounce, in which the light reflects off a waveguide surface and, after the reflection, strikes the in-coupling optical element. Upon striking the in-coupling optical element, the light may be partially absorbed and/or out-coupled by the optical element, thereby reducing the amount of in-coupled light propagating through the waveguide.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2024Publication date: March 13, 2025Inventors: Jeffrey Dean SCHMULEN, Neal Paul RICKS, Samarth BHARGAVA, Kevin MESSER, Victor Kai LIU, Matthew Grant DIXON, Xiaopei DENG, Marlon Edward MENEZES, Shuqiang YANG, Vikramjit SINGH, Kang LUO, Frank Y.

Patent number: 12181679Abstract: Display devices include waveguides with in-coupling optical elements that mitigate re-bounce of in-coupled light to improve overall in-coupling efficiency and/or uniformity. A waveguide receives light from a light source and/or projection optics and includes an in-coupling optical element that in-couples the received light to propagate by total internal reflection in a propagation direction within the waveguide. Once in-coupled into the waveguide the light may undergo re-bounce, in which the light reflects off a waveguide surface and, after the reflection, strikes the in-coupling optical element. Upon striking the in-coupling optical element, the light may be partially absorbed and/or out-coupled by the optical element, thereby effectively reducing the amount of in-coupled light propagating through the waveguide.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2023Date of Patent: December 31, 2024Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Dean Schmulen, Neal Paul Ricks, Samarth Bhargava, Kevin Messer, Victor Kai Liu, Matthew Grant Dixon, Xiaopei Deng, Marlon Edward Menezes, Shuqiang Yang, Vikramjit Singh, Kang Luo, Frank Y.
