Patent number: 11934372Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed herein for updating a knowledge graph based on a user confirmation. A media guidance application receives a user communication and isolates a term of the user communication. The media guidance application identifies a candidate component of a knowledge graph associated with the term. The media guidance application requests user input directed to confirming whether the term is associated with the candidate component. In response to receiving the user input, the media guidance application modifies a strength of association between the term and the component.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Rovi Guides, Inc.Inventors: Timothy Christensen Kelly, Patrick Gerard Morgan, Brian Peterson, Walter R.

Publication number: 20240077511Abstract: A system comprises a pressure air data system comprising non-optical air data sensors that interrogate a region of interest outside of a vehicle to determine a first set of air data measurements comprising a first static air pressure. The system also includes an optical air data system comprising optical air data sensors that interrogate the region of interest to determine a second set of air data measurements comprising a second static air pressure. The second static air pressure is determined using conversion coefficients. A processor receives and processes the first static air pressure; receives and processes the second static air pressure; dynamically recalibrates the conversion coefficients by computing a correction factor; sends the correction factor to the optical air data system to update the second static air pressure; and outputs an optimized static air pressure based on the first static air pressure and the updated second static air pressure.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2022Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: Honeywell International s.r.o.Inventors: Jan Popelka, Timothy A.

Patent number: 11774594Abstract: An air data system comprises a light source that emits a pulsed beam, and an optical transceiver coupled to the light source and configured to receive the pulsed beam. The transceiver is operative to transmit the pulsed beam into an interrogation air region; and receive and collect scattered pulses from the interrogation air region. An optical modulation device is coupled to the transceiver, and is configured to receive the collected scattered pulses from the transceiver and output modulated pulses. An optical detector is coupled to the modulation device and receives the modulated pulses from the modulation device. The modulation device has a nanosecond-based rise/fall time that is synchronized and delayed with respect to the pulsed beam.
