Abstract: Additive manufacturing's reliance on embedded computing renders it vulnerable to tampering through cyber-attacks. Sensor instrumentation of additive manufacturing devices allows for rigorous process and security monitoring, but also results in a massive volume of noisy data for each run. As such, in-situ, near-real-time anomaly detection is challenging. A probabilistic-model-based approach addresses this challenge.

Abstract: A breast support garment that includes two breast cups defining a breast cup area for each breast of a wearer. Each breast cup has a lower periphery positioned generally below the breast of the wearer, a side periphery extending upward from the lower periphery to an apex of the cup, a bridge approach area, and a neckline periphery extending between the bridge approach area and the apex. A frame that is positioned against the breast of the wearer and located around at least a portion of the breast cup. A bridge part of the frame is arranged to bridge the two breast cups to connect the two breast cups together. A portion at least at the lower periphery of the frame is fixed on each breast cup and extends therefrom below the lower periphery. Each breast cup further comprises a support panel.

Abstract: An optical device includes first and second 45° Faraday rotators. A 45° polarizer is located between the first and second Faraday rotators such that light in a prescribed polarization state that is incident on the first 45° Faraday rotator traverses the first 45° Faraday rotator as well as the 45° polarizer and the second 45° Faraday rotator. In one implementation the optical device is operable to receive a light beam traveling in a first direction and output a light beam that is in a predetermined polarization state. Likewise, the optical device is operable to receive an unpolarized light beam traveling in a second direction opposite the first direction and outputs a light beam that is in a predetermined polarization state. The polarization state in which the two output beams are arranged may be the same or orthogonal to one another.
