Abstract: A spiral wound header ring is provided. The spiral wound header ring comprises at least one outer fabric layer and at least one spiral of inner fabric and rubber. The spiral wound header ring further may have a sealing surface that extends from a rearward facing surface to the forward facing annular, radially extending, surface.

Abstract: A pouch for carrying hemostatic gauze packages securely fastens to the equipment on a utility belt such as a tourniquet holder and is easily accessible in an emergency situation. The pouch can hold up to two packages of compressed advanced clotting gauze that are removed from the pouch by a deployment ribbon.

Abstract: A magnetometer containing a crystal sensor with solid-state defects senses the magnitude and direction of a magnetic field. The solid-state defects in the crystal sensor absorb microwave and optical energy to transition between several energy states while emitting light intensity indicative of their spin states. The magnetic field alters the spin-state transitions of the solid-state defects by amounts depending on the solid-state defects' orientations with respect to the magnetic field. The optical read out, reporting the spin state of an ensemble of solid-state defects from one particular orientation class, can be used to lock microwave signals to the resonances associated with the spin-state transitions. The frequencies of the locked microwave signals can be used to reconstruct the magnetic field vector.

Abstract: Here we present a solid-state spin sensor with enhanced sensitivity. The enhanced sensitivity is achieved by increasing the T2* dephasing time of the color center defects within the solid-state spin sensor. The T2* dephasing time extension is achieved by mitigating dipolar coupling between paramagnetic defects within the solid-state spin sensor. The mitigation of the dipolar coupling is achieved by applying a magic-angle-spinning magnetic field to the color center defects. This field is generated by driving a magnetic field generator (e.g., Helmholtz coils) with phase-shifted sinusoidal waveforms from current source impedance-matched to the magnetic field generator. The waveforms may oscillate (and the field may rotate) at a frequency based on the precession period of the color center defects to reduce color center defect dephasing and further enhance measurement sensitivity.

Abstract: This specification describes technologies relating to detecting anomalous user accounts. A computer implemented method is disclosed which evaluates an unknown status user account. The method described compares features associated with a plurality of known anomalous user accounts stored in a database to features present in the unknown account. A correlation value corresponding to the probability of a specific feature occurring in a particular anomalous user account is calculated and a dependence value corresponding to the degree of dependence between the given feature and at least one other feature is also calculated. A subset of features in the unknown account is generated comprising those features that possess a correlation value less than a threshold value and a dependence value below a maximum correlation value. A risk score for the unknown account is calculated by selecting those features from the subset that maximizes the correlation value.

Abstract: Providing dynamic learning for software agents in a simulation is described. The software agents with learners are capable of learning from examples. When a non-player character queries the learner, it can provide a next action similar to a player character. A game designer provides program code, from which compile-time steps determine a set of raw features. The code may identify a function (like computing distances). At compile-time steps, determining these raw features in response to a scripting language, so the designer can specify which code should be referenced. A set of derived features, responsive to the raw features, may be relatively simple, more complex, or determined in response to a learner. The set of such raw and derived features form a context for a learner. Learners might be responsive to (more basic) learners, to results of state machines, to calculated derived features, or to raw features. The learner includes a machine learning technique.

The configurable data expands applicability of the specialized elements to plural applications within the particular domain. The specialized elements can be provided by a supplier to a developer without the supplier having detailed knowledge of structures and internal operations used by the particular application. The particular application can be generated by the developer without the developer having detailed knowledge of internal operations used by the specialized elements.
