Patent number: 11430546Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are provided that allow a user to draw and edit a chemical structure using one or more gestures performed on an input interface. For example, the user may assign an atom label to a chemical structure representation by performing a press and tap gesture, change a chemical bond characteristic in the chemical structure representation by performing a tap gesture, and/or lengthen a molecular chain in the chemical structure representation by performing a drag gesture. The user may also rotate the chemical structure representation in the graphical display by performing one or more rotation gestures.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: PerkinElmer Informatics, Inc.Inventors: Robin Young Smith, Scott Gregory Flicker, Daniel Malcolm Oberlin, Andrew Smellie

Publication number: 20190171928Abstract: In some embodiments, the disclosed subject matter involves using socket layers with a plurality of artificial neural networks in a machine learning system to create customizable inputs and outputs for a machine learning service. The machine learning service may include a plurality of convolutional neural networks and a plurality of pre-trained fully connected neural networks to find the best fits. In an embodiment, when the customized input or output data is not a good fit with the pre-trained artificial neural networks, a socket layer may automatically request additional convolutional layers or new training of a neural network to dynamically manage the machine learning system to accommodate the customized input or customized output. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2017Publication date: June 6, 2019Inventor: Robin Young

Patent number: 9575980Abstract: An information management system creates data structures based entirely on the content of source files, then compares these data structures to discover synergies and commonalities. In one embodiment, the system accepts a first collection of source files, and extracts text from each source file. The text is compared to tags in one or more dictionaries, which comprise hierarchical listing of tags. Tags matching the text are associated with each source file. The system then generates a virtual relational network in which each source file having matching tags is a node. Tags associated with two or more source files are links between the nodes. This virtual relational network may be compared with another virtual relational network to discover common nodes or links. Source files later added to a collection are massively linked by associating all tags from all source files with the newly added source file, and vice versa.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2015Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: PERKINELMER INFORMATICS, INC.Inventors: Robin Young Smith, William Brian Ballard

Publication number: 20140082015Abstract: A knowledge management platform eliminates the trial and error process for analytical chemists in, for example, identifying appropriate methodologies for separating mixtures of chemical compounds. The platform allows the analytical chemists to perform a variety of searches on data existing from previous experiments, procedures, and/or processes. The platform may be employed to make faster decisions, and ultimately decreases the time taken in selecting an appropriate separation methodology.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2013Publication date: March 20, 2014Applicant: CambridgeSoft CorporationInventors: Biying Huang, Scott Gregory Flicker, William B.

Patent number: 7724257Abstract: The database is populated with target chemicals, corresponding listings of reagent chemicals, corresponding listings of equipment and corresponding listings of procedures. The database is then searched in response to user identification of a target chemical. In response, a listing is displayed of reagent chemicals that are used to synthesize the target chemical, equipment that is used to synthesize the target chemical, and a procedure that is used to synthesize the target chemical by reacting the reagent chemicals in the equipment according to the procedure. An icon-based reaction editor and/or context-sensitive Boolean query option generators may be provided. A reaction template may be used to perform predictive chemistry. A reaction relay may be used to graphically display related chemicals and procedures using a hub and spoke arrangement.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2007Date of Patent: May 25, 2010Assignee: Symyx Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Robin Young Smith, William Brian Ballard, David Albert Coleman
