Patent number: 12223467Abstract: Systems and methods, and computer readable media for target inventory estimation of a geographical region are disclosed. The method receives an item identifier associated with an item for target inventory estimation. The method may access the demand share estimate of the item in the geographical region and the mean and variance estimates of the demand share estimate in the geographical region. The method may then access overall demand forecast data for the item and calculate the mean and variance estimates of the demand forecast. The method may use the generated mean and variance estimates and demand share estimate of the geographical region to determine the target inventory estimation of the region.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2021Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: COUPANG CORP.Inventors: Hernan Awad Amar, YoungHoon Jeong, Je Kim, SeungRok Kim, KyuHoon Lim, Rajesh Medidhi, Smita Mohan

Publication number: 20230128417Abstract: Systems and methods, and computer readable media for inventory demand estimation of a region are disclosed. The method receives an item identifier associated with an item for demand estimation. The method may then access overall demand forecast data for the item and identify geographical regions, and evaluate a demand share estimate of the item in the geographical regions. The method may also determine a set of item identifiers associated with a segment of items related to the item and determine the demand estimation for the segment of items. The method may then generate demand estimation of the item at the geographical regions using a Bayesian framework with demand share of the item and demand estimation of the segment of items in a geographical region, and overall demand forecast data for the item as input. The method may use the generated demand estimation at a region to generate demand estimation in other encompassing geographical regions.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2021Publication date: April 27, 2023Inventors: Hernan AWAD AMAR, Jean CHOI, Je KIM, Rajesh MEDIDHI, Smita MOHAN

Patent number: 11416815Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computerized method for item distribution, including retrieving, from a data structure, an inventory of a SKU at each of a plurality of destinations; determining a buffer of each of the destinations; determining an average buffer across the destinations; identifying at least one high utilization destination and at least one low utilization destination based on differences from the average buffer; and redistributing a network inventory by, iteratively and for each of the high utilization destinations: finding, in the data structure, a low utilization destination having a common attribute with the high utilization destination; and sending, to a user device for display, an instruction to transfer a redistribution quantity of the SKU from the low utilization destination to the high utilization destination.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2021Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: Coupang Corp.Inventors: Hyeong Bae Yang, Dong Hyun Jin, Hyo Beom Park, Kyu Hoon Lim, Je Kim, Smita Mohan, Hernan Awad Amar

Patent number: 11321651Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for intelligent distribution of products. In one aspect, a system comprises a memory storing instructions and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions. The processor performs operations include receiving forecasting data comprising an expected demand of a stock keeping unit and determining a target inventory of the SKU to satisfy the expected demand. The operations further include determining a regional target inventory of the SKU of a region comprising a plurality of fulfillment centers. The operations further comprise receiving historical data comprising the inbound and outbound shipment history of a fulfillment center in the plurality of fulfillment centers and generating a profile for the fulfillment center. The operations further comprise assigning a portion of the regional target inventory to the fulfillment center and transmitting instructions to a device to stock a number of SKUs in the fulfillment center based on the portion.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2019Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Assignee: Coupang Corp.Inventors: Kyuhoon Lim, Hyeong Bae Yang, Rajesh Medidhi, Smita Mohan, Je Kim

Patent number: 8444642Abstract: A laparoscopic nephrectomy device is disclosed. The device has an upper jaw and a lower jaw designed to clamp a portion of an organ, such as a kidney, so as to cut off blood flow locally to a portion of that organ. The upper jaw includes a mid-jaw piece and a top jaw piece, with each piece separately articulated. The mid-jaw piece is pivotably connected to the lower jaw. A top jaw piece is pivotably connected to the mid-jaw piece. The mid-jaw and top jaw pieces include a mechanism to fix the angular orientation of the mid-jaw and top jaw pieces with respect to one another, including a retractable slide piece that is carried by the mid-jaw piece and received in a slot in the top jaw piece. The jaws have insulated troughs that carry electrode structure for applying coagulative therapies.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2010Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Device Evolutions, LLCInventors: Francisco Contijoch, Michelle Harran, Carolyn Purington, Tom Chen, Smita Mohan, Aubri Gillespie
