Publication number: 20220343204Abstract: The present invention provides a loyalty extraction machine, wherein “quadratic multiform separation” (QMS) is modified and executed multiplicatively in an even generalized way. In each execution, the characteristic of one single membership is either enhanced or reduced. This process is performed in turn to each membership. Thus, every sample data (or element) receives multiple classification results. Then, the multiple classification results are collected and analyzed by an “eclectic classifier” to reach a final decision. The combination of the generalized QMS and the eclectic classifier therefore develops the loyalty extraction machine. Moreover, a label called “loyalty type” of the element is introduced to describe the effectiveness of membership recognition with respect to a training set.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2021Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventor: Ko-Hui Michael FAN

Patent number: 8831156Abstract: Techniques for interference cancellation in a CDMA system. In an exemplary embodiment, a channel set scrambled using a secondary scrambling code (SSC) is estimated and cancelled along with a channel set scrambled using a primary scrambling code (SSC). The estimation and cancellation of the SSC channel set may proceed in series with the estimation and cancellation of the PSC channel set. Alternatively, the estimation of the SSC channel set may proceed in parallel with the estimation of the PSC channel set, and the cancellations of the PSC and SSC channel sets may be simultaneously performed. Multiple iterations of such estimation and cancellation may be performed in a successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2009Date of Patent: September 9, 2014Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Jiye Liang, Michael Fan, Yisheng Xue

Publication number: 20130339473Abstract: Real time analytics via stream processing is described. A stream reader receives a stream of messages and batches the messages in a message queue. A stream writer accesses the messages from the message queue, aggregates the messages from a time window based on a hierarchy of an attribute to generate a set of event data for the time window, stores the set of event data in a memory cache cluster, and stores a key corresponding to the set of event data in a key buffer queue. A stream aggregator accesses the key from the key buffer queue, retrieves the set of data in the time window corresponding to the key from the memory cache cluster, and performs a process on the retrieved set of data.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2013Publication date: December 19, 2013Applicant: Zynga Inc.Inventors: Daniel McCaffrey, Michael Fan, Rushan Chen

Patent number: 7831006Abstract: An apparatus is provided to reduce transient current swings during mode transitions. Traditionally, transient supply voltage fluctuations on a chip account for a large portion of the power supply. The number of series inductances and resistances are typically minimized, while adding large decoupling capacitances between the supply voltage and ground. However, situations may arise where reduction of series inductances and resistances cannot be accomplished. Therefore, to assist in controlling the transient current swings, reduction of clocking frequencies are performed in a controlled manner.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2008Date of Patent: November 9, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: David William Boerstler, Eskinder Hailu, Mack Wayne Riley, Michael Fan Wang
