Patent number: 11232260Abstract: A method includes generating a new entigen group regarding trusted new information. The method further includes generating entigen groups from phrases of a document and determining whether an entigen group of the entigen groups has a most likely meaning similar to a most likely meaning of the new entigen group. When the entigen group has a most likely meaning similar to the most likely meaning of the new entigen group, the method further includes updating the entigen group based on the new entigen group. When the entigen groups do not include an entigen group having a most likely meaning similar to the most likely meaning of the new entigen group, the method further includes updating the entigen groups to include the new entigen group.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2019Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: entigenlogic LLCInventors: Frank John Williams, David Ralph Lazzara, Donald Joseph Wurzel, Paige Kristen Thompson, Stephen Emerson Sundberg, Stephen Chen, Karl Olaf Knutson, Jessy Thomas, David Michael Corns, II, Andrew Chu, Eric Andrew Faurie, Theodore Mazurkiewicz, Gary W.

Patent number: 11176126Abstract: A method includes generating an initial entigen group for a query from existing entigens in a knowledge database and determining whether the initial entigen group provides a reliable response to the query. When the initial entigen group does not provide a reliable response to the query, the method further includes determining a desired entigen to add to the initial entigen group to produce an updated entigen group that leads to the reliable response to the query and creating the desired entigen based on obtained targeted data. The method further includes adding the desired entigen to the initial entigen group to produce the updated entigen group and determining whether the updated entigen group provides the reliable response to the query. When the updated entigen group provides the reliable response to the query, the method further includes outputting the reliable response.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2019Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: entigenlogic LLCInventors: Donald Joseph Wurzel, Frank John Williams, David Ralph Lazzara, Stephen Chen, Dennis Arlen Roberson, Andrew Chu, Gary W.

Patent number: 11169377Abstract: A multi-focal plane head-up display includes a main body, a projector, a first reflective element, a second reflective element, a polarizing element and a third reflective element. The polarization direction of a first image light in the first region of the projection image projected by the projector and the polarization direction of a second image light in the second region of the projection image are orthogonal to each other. The first image light passes through the first reflective element and the polarizing element to form a first virtual image. The second image light passes through the second reflective element, the polarizing element and the third reflective element to form a second virtual image. This can not only provide two virtual images with different focal planes, but also reduce the volume occupied by the head-up display and reduce manufacturing costs.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2020Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: E-LEAD ELECTRONIC CO., LTD.Inventor: Stephen Chen

Patent number: 11100324Abstract: A method includes obtaining a set of image segment identigens for each image segment of an image to produce sets of image segment identigens. The sets of image segment identigens are possible interpretations of an image segment. The method further includes generating a set of relationships between image segments. The relationships provide a list of one or more ways in which the image segments are related. The method further includes processing different permutations of the sets of image segment identigens in accordance with the set of relationships to generate an entigen group. The entigen group represents a most likely interpretation of the image.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2019Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: entigenlogic LLCInventors: Frank John Williams, David Ralph Lazzara, Stephen Chen, Karl Olaf Knutson, Jessy Thomas, David Michael Corns, II, Andrew Chu, Gary W.

Publication number: 20210191922Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes obtaining a string of words and determining whether two or more words of the string of words are in a word group. When the two or more words are in the word group, the method further includes determining a set of identigens for each word of the word group to produce sets of identigens, where a set of identigens of the sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a word of the word group. The method further includes interpreting, using identigen pairing rules, the sets of identigens to produce an entigen group. The method further includes assigning a new entigen to represent the entigen group, where the new entigen represents a most likely meaning interpretation of the word group.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 5, 2021Publication date: June 24, 2021Applicant: entigenlogic LLCInventors: Frank John Williams, David Ralph Lazzara, Donald Joseph Wurzel, Paige Kristen Thompson, Stephen Emerson Sundberg, Stephen Chen, Karl Olaf Knutson, Jessy Thomas, David Michael Corns, II, Andrew Chu, Eric Andrew Faurie, Theodore Mazurkiewicz, Gary W.

Patent number: 11042650Abstract: A database-management system provides sargable evaluation for query predicates that compare an “LHS” encrypted database-column operand to an “RHS” expression operand. The system directly compares the two operands if all their attributes match. If the operands are encrypted string-type values differing only in length, the system truncates the RHS or pads it with encrypted blanks and, if a truncation loses meaningful data, evaluates the predicate as never satisfying an equality condition. In all other cases, if all attributes of a plaintext RHS don't match those of the plaintext data encoded into the LHS column, the system attempts to cast the RHS to match the plaintext LHS data. An error condition or data loss at this step allows the system to sargably evaluate the predicate without further analysis, but if the casting is successful and error-free, the system encrypts the resulting RHS and performs a sargable predicate evaluation.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2018Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Xiaohong Fu, James W. Pickel, Yao Ching Stephen Chen, Jeffrey W. Josten, Nina Bronnikova, Sarbinder S. Kallar, Shengxi Suo

Patent number: 10997368Abstract: A method includes generating a plurality of entigen groups from a set of phrases of a statement and identifying two plausible entigen groups based on a true meaning interpretation of the statement. The method further includes identifying a related entigen group based on a phrase of the statement and interpreting each of the two plausible entigen groups in light of the related entigen group to determine whether one of the two plausible entigen groups is a more likely interpretation of the statement than the other one of the two plausible entigen groups. When the one of the two plausible entigen groups is the more likely interpretation of the statement, the method further includes updating the one of the two plausible entigen groups using the related entigen group to produce an updated entigen group and adding the statement as the updated entigen group to a knowledge database.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2019Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: entigenlogic LLCInventors: Frank John Williams, David Ralph Lazzara, Donald Joseph Wurzel, Stephen Chen, Dennis Arlen Roberson, Andrew Chu, Gary W.
