  • Patent number: 11948051
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for auditing the results of a machine learning model includes: retrieving a set of state estimates for original time series data values from a database under audit; reversing the state estimation computation for each of the state estimates to produce reconstituted time series data values for each of the state estimates; retrieving the original time series data values from the database under audit; comparing the original time series data values pairwise with the reconstituted time series data values to determine whether the original time series and reconstituted time series match; and generating a signal that the database under audit (i) has not been modified where the original time series and reconstituted time series match, and (ii) has been modified where the original time series and reconstituted time series do not match.

  • Patent number: 10543158
    Abstract: Compositions, methods, and processes are used in topical applications for human or animal skin. A combination of five (5) active ingredients: caffeine, trehalose, asparagus extract, ceramide 2 (2%) and a resurrection plant, Myrothamnus flabellifolia, extract are used in a topical formulation, such as a cream, lotion, spray or gel to boost or activate autophagy, the body's innate processes for repairing cell damage. The five active ingredients are combined in different formulations to provide at least six (6) products for topical application, including, but not limited to, a cleanser, a spray essence, a day cream, a night cream, a serum and a booster. The five (5) active ingredients provide a unique biological composition, hereinafter called, “autophagy activating complex,” that changes the way skin ages, restores and renews radiance.

  • Publication number: 20180296464
    Abstract: Compositions, methods, and processes are used in topical applications for human or animal skin. In a first embodiment, a combination of active ingredients: caffeine, trehalose, asparagus extract, ceramide 2 (2%), and a resurrection plant, Myrothamnus flabellifolia, extract are used in a topical formulation, such as a cream, lotion, spray or gel to boost or activate autophagy, the body's innate processes for repairing cell damage. In a second embodiment, nutrients, selected from essential fatty acids, and phytonutrients are added to the active ingredients of the first embodiment and used in different formulations to provide products for topical application, including, but not limited to, a cleanser, a spray essence, a day cream, a night cream, a serum, a mask, and a booster. The active ingredients provide a unique “autophagy activating nutrient complex,” that improves skin integrity and changes the way skin ages, restores and renews radiance.

  • Patent number: 9671412
    Abstract: Antibodies specific for human Beclin 1 protein phosphorylated Ser234, Ser295, Tyr229, Tyr233 or Try352 are useful in diagnosing diseases such as cancer and impaired autophagy. The invention further relates to human Beclin 1 mutated at Ser234, Ser295, Tyr229, Tyr233 or Try352 with a phospho-silencing residue and uses thereof.

  • Patent number: 9378288
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for refining search results. In one aspect, a method includes presenting search results that are responsive to a search query on a search engine results page and each search result includes a snippet. The method also include receiving a refinement to the search query through the search engine results page and generating a request to update one or more of the snippets based on the refinement. The method also includes receiving one or more updated snippets in response to the request and updating one or more of the search results presented on the search engine results page using the one or more updated snippets.

  • Patent number: 8221255
    Abstract: A golf swing training device to aid a golfer in keeping their wrists in a proper position throughout a golf swing includes a golf club grip clip, an adjustable spacer rod, and a wrist strap. The wrist strap includes an adjustable and securable fabric strap which engages the golfer's wrist. The wrist strap is affixed to the length adjustable spacer rod which is in turn attached to the grip clip. The grip clip engages the grip end of the golf club such that the golfer's wrists are confined to a predetermined distance and angle during a golf swing for purposes of training. The device may be used singularly or as a pair, if desired, to allow for simultaneous training of both wrists.

  • Patent number: 8085675
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for testing a data path in a network is described. The method may comprise creating a closed loop in the data path so that test data (e.g., fixed set of known data) sent from a local network device to a downstream network device is returned by the downstream network device. Thereafter, the test data is injected into the closed loop and selectively extracted from the loop. The test data may then be processed. The method may create the closed loop by closing a first loopback mechanism at the local network device and closing a second loopback mechanism at the downstream network device. In an example embodiment, the method determines whether the identified errors exceed a threshold number of errors. The method may be utilized to determine if fiber connectivity of the data path has failed when the identified errors exceed the threshold.
