  • Patent number: 11883727
    Abstract: The portable and adjustable training apparatus (also labelled as portable hangboard) is portable and can be attached to a fixed point of stabilization via the cord as desired for training purposes. It is freely moveable in that it can be transported to various locations or orientations for use. It is made up of a cylindrical shape in which a hollow core has a cord tied in a loop through the core. The cord is designed to travel through grooves/channels on the apparatus endcap resulting in the body to rotate to desired angle or position for training purposes. Attaching the cord to a fixed point allows the user to apply resistance on the body of the apparatus through the user's fingers resulting in the required resistance to train finger strength. The apparatus is used in training finger strength for sport and recreation.

  • Patent number: 11775569
    Abstract: An object-backed block-based storage system may store data blocks in a block cache in a non-relational database and data block objects in an object data store. Access requests for a particular data block may be received at a storage protocol target that are formatted according to a network-based storage protocol. Translated access requests formatted according to respective programmatic interfaces may be generated and sent to the non-relational database or to the object data store in order to access the particular data block. A response indicating success or failure of the access request may be sent.

  • Publication number: 20230044347
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide computer-implemented methods, computer program products and computer systems. Embodiments of the present invention can, identify a plurality of data variables within a multivariate event dataset. Embodiments of the present invention can then formalize a causal inference between at least two identified data variables within the multivariate event dataset and generate a structural framework of an average effect value for the multivariate event dataset based on the formalization of the causal inference of the identified data variables. Embodiments of the present invention can then calculate an inverse propensity score for the generated structural framework of the average effect based on a type of identified variable, a predetermined time associated with the identified variable, and a causal connection strength between the identified variables.
