Publication number: 20240070940Abstract: Provided herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for providing interactive exploration and analysis of cellular environments represented within MIF images. An embodiment includes a pipeline configured to generate an interactive visualization with selectable icons that represent cells in an MIF image by identifying identifying cells in the MIF image and generating a graph of the MIF image based on coordinates and the properties of the identified cells, with each node in the graph corresponding to the cells as well as neighboring cells. The graph may be transformed into embeddings and generating an interactive visualization of the graph based on the embeddings. Selectable icons in the interactive visualization correspond to nodes in the graph.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2022Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Khan Richard BAYKANER, Christopher Erik Marino INNOCENTI, Michael Joseph SURACE, Laura DILLON

Patent number: 11880779Abstract: This disclosure describes systems and techniques for detecting events, determining a result of each respective event using a first hypothesis source, and calculating a likelihood that a second (and/or additional) hypothesis source would determine the same result of the respective event. The calculated likelihood may then be used to be determine whether to request that the second hypothesis source determine the result of the event, determine an amount of resources of the second hypothesis source to use to make this determination, and/or like.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2023Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Paul Aksenti Savastinuk, Roman Talyansky, Michael Dillon, Eli Osherovich, Gopi Prashanth Gopal

Patent number: 11868956Abstract: Systems and techniques for detecting events involving a user that occurred during a session in a facility, and performing a holistic, session-based analysis of the events to determine items taken by the user from the facility. An inventory management system may initially analyze the events to determine a hypothesis for a result of each respective event and a probability that the hypotheses are accurate. An initial listing of the items determined to be taken by the user may be generated along with probabilities that the items were taken. Upon determining that a probability an item was taken is lower than a threshold, the management system may select an algorithm to process an event in the session that is likely to resolve uncertainty in the initial listing. The management system may iteratively process events until a final listing represents the items taken by the user with an allowable probability.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2019Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Michael Dillon, Charles Winn Degranville, Paul Aksenti Savastinuk, Amit Dekate, Michael L Sandige, Scott Brown, Paul Eugene Munger, Matthew Scott Wilding

Patent number: 11831955Abstract: Methods and apparatus for providing protected content to subscribers of a managed (e.g., MSO) network via a content source accessible via an internetwork such as the Internet. In one embodiment, a user accesses a service provider portal (e.g., website), and requests content. The service provider determines whether the requesting user is permitted to access the content, and what rights or restrictions are associated with the user. This includes authenticating the user as a subscriber of the MSO, and determining the subscriber's subscription level. In another embodiment, a user's account with the MSO and service provider may be federated, thus a given user will have MSO-specific information regarding its identity (such as login information, GUID, etc.) and is able to perform a single sign on to request and receive content.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2021Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: TIME WARNER CABLE ENTERPRISES LLCInventors: Gary Cronk, Jonathan Putsch, James Boutilier, Paul L.

Publication number: 20230334238Abstract: A computing system receives a request to generate one or more narrative frameworks for a worksheet. The worksheet is hosted by a third party server. The computing system interfaces with the third party server to retrieve data associated with the worksheet. The computing system infers attributes of the worksheet from the retrieved data. The attributes correspond to a type of data represented in the worksheet. The computing system generates a narrative template for the one or more narrative frameworks. The computing system generates one or more data variables for the one or more narrative frameworks based on the generated narrative template. The computing system constructs the one or more narrative frameworks by selectively retrieving data from the worksheet for each data variable of the one or more data variables in the narrative framework.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Applicant: STATS LLCInventors: Adam Long, Nick Haynes, Dan Salo, Heather Dahm, Jacob McCright, Michael Dillon, Hannah Deters, Anup Khadka

Publication number: 20230323097Abstract: A rubber composition for a heavy load tire comprises, based on 100 parts by weight of elastomer (phr), at least three diene elastomers each being a different rubber material. The elastomers include polybutadienes and a synthetic polyisoprene. The polybutadienes comprise a majority portion of a first polybutadiene synthesized with a lanthanide series catalyst, and a minority portion of second polybutadiene synthesized with a Nickel-based catalyst. The first and second polybutadienes are characterized by Mooney viscosities that are within ±5 MU of each other, while the synthetic polyisoprene is characterized by a Mooney viscosity higher than the polybutadienes. The at least three elastomers are each characterized by a high cis content of greater than 80 percent.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Daniel López Gaxiola, Sean Michael Dillon

Publication number: 20220284311Abstract: A computing system receives event data that includes play-by-play information for an event. The computing system accesses a database that includes a knowledge graph related to the event. The knowledge graph includes a plurality of nodes and a plurality of edges. Each node of the plurality of nodes represents a player or a team involved in the event. The plurality of edges connects nodes of the plurality of nodes. The computing system updates the knowledge graph based on the play-by-play information. The computing system generates, via a first machine learning model, one or more insights based on the updated knowledge graph. The computing system scores, via a second machine learning model, a score for each of the one or more insights. The computing system presents a highest ranking insight of the one or more insights to one or more end users.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2022Publication date: September 8, 2022Applicant: STATS LLCInventors: Nicholas Haynes, Michael Dillon, Joseph Cody Braun, Patrick Joseph Lucey

Patent number: 11392889Abstract: Systems and techniques for detecting events involving users that occurred at an inventory location, and then using the events to determines states of the inventory location at various times. For instance, a system may generate event data representing first events that occur within an inventory location. The first events may include an associate performing a task, a customer removing an item, a customer returning an item, and/or so forth. The system may then use the event data to determine a state of the inventory location during a second event. In some examples, the state may include a tidy state or an untidy state. If the state includes a tidy state, then the system may generate a listing of items that includes at least one item associated with the second event. However, if the state includes an untidy state, then the system may further process the second event.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Charles Winn Degranville, Michael Dillon, Paul Aksenti Savastinuk, Joseph James Greene, Steven Xiang Chen, Christina Alexandra Polyukh, Michael L Sandige
