Patents by Inventor T. Y. CHAN

T. Y. CHAN has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11634149
    Abstract: In a self-driving autonomous vehicle, a controller architecture includes multiple processors within the same box. Each processor monitors the others and takes appropriate safe action when needed. Some processors may run dormant or low priority redundant functions that become active when another processor is detected to have failed. The processors are independently powered and independently execute redundant algorithms from sensor data processing to actuation commands using different hardware capabilities (GPUs, processing cores, different input signals, etc.). Intentional hardware and software diversity improves fault tolerance. The resulting fault-tolerant/fail-operational system meets ISO26262 ASIL-D specifications based on a single electronic controller unit platform that can be used for self-driving vehicles.

  • Publication number: 20230064064
    Abstract: A method can include receiving a protein sequence (S) of a hybrid repressor, determining an original compatibility score C(S), where the compatibility score C is a function of the protein sequence (S) and predicting, based on the compatibility score C, a performance of the hybrid repressor. The hybrid protein sequence includes a plurality of DNA-binding modules (DBMs) and a plurality of ligand-binding modules (LBMs).
