Publication number: 20240111888Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and verifier and/or prover devices or query verification apparatuses are disclosed that generate a first commitment from received data and send the received data to a prover device for insertion into a table of a database. A query result and an overall proof are received from the prover device in response to a received query forwarded to the prover device and associated with the database table. The overall proof is generated from one or more partial proofs comprising one or more commitments generated from one or more intermediate values. The query result and an indication the query result was verified are returned in response to the received query after verifying the query result based on a second commitment to the query result generated using the first commitment and the overall proof.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: SPACE AND TIME LABS, INC.Inventors: Jay Thomas WHITE, Scott Edward Daly DYKSTRA

Patent number: 11947525Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and query verification apparatuses are disclosed that receive a result vector, an index to the result vector, a range proof, and an inner product proof from a prover device after providing a query vector to the prover device. The prover device hosts a vector database with rows and columns. Second and third commitments to a distance vector and a random linear combination vector, respectively, are generated based on a first commitment to the rows. The range proof is checked using the second commitment and the inner product proof is checked using the third commitment and a generator used to generate the first commitment and identified based on the index. The result vector is returned after confirming that it is one of the rows and each of the rows is as far from the query vector as the result vector based on the check of the proofs.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2023Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: SPACE AND TIME LABS, INC.Inventors: Jay Thomas White, Scott Edward Daly Dykstra

Publication number: 20230405970Abstract: An article of apparel includes a composite material. The composite material includes a pliable first layer and a resilient second layer, where the first and second layers are secured to each other via a patterned strand network. In forming the composite material, the second layer is stretched and maintained under tension while the first layer is secured to the second layer via the patterned strand network. The tension on the second layer is then released, resulting in contraction of the second layer in relation to the first layer and an outward buckling or protrusion of the first layer in relation to the second layer to form protruding cells along the composite material that are bounded by portions of the patterned strand network. The patterned strand network can be formed using embroidery with one or more auxetic patterns in the stitching.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Alan Toronjo, Daniel Lee, Roger Fan, Thomas White

Publication number: 20230223048Abstract: A video is generated from an audio file by transcribing the audio file into texts and breaking the audio file into one or more segments or shots used as scenes. A media piece is then matched to each shot; the media pieces are properly contextualized based on the text or attributes of the audio associated with the shot, the overall script or theme, an intended audience, or other factors. The resulting video is then created by stitching the media pieces together.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2023Publication date: July 13, 2023Inventors: Jeremy Toeman, John Thomas White, Scott Hilton Havird, Alex Gurzhi, Niranjan Salimath

Patent number: 11526622Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and query verification apparatuses are disclosed that receive data, store the data into a table of a database, and receive a query that is associated with the database table. A query plan and a query result are generated for the query, one or more partial proofs are generated from one or more commitments, and an overall proof is generated from the one or more partial proofs. Each of the one or more partial proofs is associated with at least one node of the query plan in some examples, which can include a directed acyclic graph. The overall proof is returned along with the query result in response to the query to facilitate verification of the query result. One or more GPUs are configured to generate the one or more commitments in some examples to thereby accelerate the verification process and improve database scalability.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2022Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Space and Time, LLCInventors: Jay Thomas White, Scott Edward Daly Dykstra

Publication number: 20220356608Abstract: A woven textile structure is formed by weaving a first woven layer including first yarns and weaving a second woven layer including first yarns, where the woven layers are arranged in a stacked manner and are separated from each other. During the weaving of the first and second woven layers, second yarns are inserted along an intermediate span in the weft direction of the woven textile structure, where the second yarns are elongated to an elongated length during the insertion in the weft direction. First yarns of the first woven layer are interlaced with first yarns of the second woven layer and a second yarn of the intermediate span at a plurality of interlacing locations along the woven textile structure so as to define stitches at each interlacing location, where each stitch joins the first woven layer with the second woven layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2022Publication date: November 10, 2022Inventors: Alan Toronjo, Thomas White, James Shih-Tien Huang
