  • User configured optimizer
    Patent number: 9122387
    Abstract: An adaptable graphical user interface is provided. The interface may include a setup region to display a group of available solvers to a user and to display parameters for at least one of the group of solvers to the user. The interface may include an options region to display a first group of active options to a user without requiring a user input for the first group of active options, where the first group of active options is determined based on a selected one of the group of solvers. The options region may further display a second group of active options to the user when another one of the solvers is selected by the user, where the second group of active options differs from the first group of active options.
    Type: Grant

  • Generated code from graphical user interface
    Patent number: 8046736
    Abstract: A method and graphical user interface (GUI) are provided. The method includes generating a file of executable code in a dynamically typed programming language that regenerates computations and results of a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI includes a data GUI for importing data, viewing data, generating data and generating exclusion sets for data, a fitting GUI for fitting models to data, a plotting GUI for controlling the plotting of data and fitted models, and a display window for previewing a plot.
