Publication number: 20260080427Abstract: An example computer-implemented method for temporal data analysis and forecasting utilizes topological hierarchical decompositions to process historical and future time windows. The method receives temporal data and generates multiple sets of historical time subsets with varying lengths, where information in shorter subsets is duplicated in longer ones. Future time windows are also generated in a similar manner. Future time windows are chronologically after a given initial time. The method creates past and future topological hierarchical decompositions and directed graph adjacency arrays. Customer attention matrices are generated for past and future windows, and matrix multiplications are performed to create self-attention arrays. These arrays are then multiplied together. The method culminates in providing a dashboard for forecasting demand after an initial time point, enabling comprehensive temporal data analysis and prediction.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2025Publication date: March 19, 2026Applicant: Mined XAI LLCInventors: Kyle Siegrist, Wes Holmes, Christopher Dean, Ryan Kramer

Patent number: 12514446Abstract: Introduced here are retinal cameras having one or more optical components whose position can be modified so that the left and right eyes can be imaged during a single imaging operation. Collectively, the optical component(s) may be referred to as an “optical assembly.” An optical assembly can include the objective lens, lens tube, and other optical components such as mirror(s), light source(s), capturing medium(s), etc. An optical assembly of a retinal camera may be movable between a first position and a second position along an arcuate path. By moving the optical assembly between the first and second positions along the arcuate path, the retinal camera can align the lens tube with the left and right eyes of an individual while clearing her nose. Thus, the retinal camera may generate images of the left and right eyes during an imaging procedure without requiring that the individual move her head.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2024Date of Patent: January 6, 2026Assignee: Verily Life Sciences LLCInventors: James K.

Publication number: 20250331718Abstract: Introduced here are retinal cameras having optical stops whose size and/or position can be modified to increase the size of the space in which an eye can move while being imaged. In some embodiments, an optical stop is mechanically moved to recover retinal image quality as the subject shifts their eye. In some embodiments, an optical stop is digitally created using a pixelated liquid crystal display (LCD) layer having multiple pixels that are individually controllably. In some embodiments, multiple non-pixelated LCD layers are connected to one another to form a variable transmission stack, and each LCD layer within the variable transmission stack may be offset from the other LCD layers. In such embodiments, the optical stop can be moved by changing which LCD layer is active at a given point in time.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2025Publication date: October 30, 2025Inventors: Eliezer GLIK, Sam KAVUSI, Ryan KRAMER, Todd WHITEHURST

Patent number: 11759106Abstract: In some embodiments, readily understandable information displays are provided to help an operator guide an eye of a subject into an eyebox of a retinal imaging system. In some embodiments, a three-dimensional position of the eye with respect to the retinal imaging system is determined, and an interface that includes a three-dimensional representation of the position of the eye with respect to the eyebox is generated. In some embodiments, the gaze direction may also be determined and presented in the interface, so that the operator can also prompt the subject to correct issues with incorrect gaze direction.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: VERILY LIFE SCIENCES LLCInventor: Ryan Kramer
