  • Patent number: 11946863
    Abstract: Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) can be used to interrogate a surface of a sample such as a layered semiconductor structure. The SHG based sample interrogation systems may simultaneously collect different polarization components of the SHG signal at a time to provide different types of information. SHG imaging systems can provide SHG images or maps of the distribution of SHG signals over a larger area of a sample. Some such SHG imaging systems employ multiple beams and multiple detectors to capture SHG signals over an area of the sample. Some SHG imaging systems employ imaging optics to image the sample onto a detector array to form SHG images.

  • Patent number: 11941660
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing conversion path performance measures and reports. In one aspect, user interaction data are obtained, were the user interaction data specify user interactions for a plurality of conversions. User interactions that are associated with each conversion are selected from the user interaction data, where the associated user interactions for each conversion are user interactions with a converting user during the conversion cycle for the conversion. Using the user interaction data for the selected user interactions, a quantity of user interactions that are associated with each conversion and occurred during the conversion cycle for the conversion are determined. In turn, conversion path performance measures are computed and reports specifying the conversion path performance measures are generated.

  • Patent number: 11922440
    Abstract: Embodiments forecast demand of an item by receiving historical sales data for the item for a plurality of past time periods including a plurality of features that define one or more feature sets. Embodiments use the feature sets as inputs to one or more different algorithms to generate a plurality of different models. Embodiments train each of the different models. Embodiments use each of the trained models to generate a plurality of past demand forecasts for each of some or all of the past time periods. Embodiments determine a root-mean-square error (“RMSE”) for each of the past demand forecasts and, based on the RMSE, determine a weight for each of the trained models and normalize each weight. Embodiments then generate a final demand forecast for the item for each future time period by combining a weighted value for each trained model.
