  • Patent number: 11544653
    Abstract: A computing system includes: processor(s), memory(s), storage device(s), and network interface(s) configured to communicate with data source(s) and remotely located computing device(s). The network interface(s) receives data regarding a digital product catalog representation of products from the data source(s). The processor(s): generates a respective score for the digital product catalog representation for each respective product, the score indicative of adherence of the digital product catalog representation for each respective product to at least one criterion; stores the respective score for the digital product catalog representation for each respective product using the at least one storage device; and identifies which products provide the greatest opportunity for sales improvement by improving adherence of the digital product catalog representation to the at least one criterion.

  • Patent number: 11480066
    Abstract: A gas turbine power plant comprises a gas turbine, a power turbine, a clutch, an electrical generator and a controller. The power turbine is fluidly connected to the gas turbine without any mechanical connection. The clutch comprises an input mechanically connected to the power turbine and an output mechanically connected to the electric generator. The controller can identify that a speed of the electric generator is greater than a speed of the power turbine, determine a difference between the speed of the electric generator and the power turbine, in response to the difference being greater than a threshold, control the gas turbine to a first maximum acceleration of the power turbine, and in response to the difference being equal or less than to the threshold, control the gas turbine to a second maximum acceleration of the power turbine that is less than the first maximum acceleration.

  • Patent number: 11113398
    Abstract: A mismatch between model-based classifications produced by a first version of a machine learning threat discernment model and a second version of a machine learning threat discernment model for a file is detected. The mismatch is analyzed to determine appropriate handling for the file, and taking an action based on the analyzing. The analyzing includes comparing a human-generated classification status for a file, a first model version status that reflects classification by the first version of the machine learning threat discernment model, and a second model version status that reflects classification by the second version of the machine learning threat discernment model. The analyzing can also include allowing the human-generated classification status to dominate when it is available.

  • Patent number: 7135205
    Abstract: To form an ionomer-based catalytic layer on a porous substrate, a heat source (40) is used to dry an ionomer-containing spray (46) so that it does not substantially liquid flow on the substrate (14). The ionomer spray (46) may contain a catalyst. A spray (46) of mixed material for forming the catalytic layer is entrained by a gas stream and is heated and directed to a substrate surface (12). For hydrogen/oxygen fuel cells, catalytic material is incorporated into the proton-conducting membrane (56) to convert diffusing oxygen and hydrogen to water to reduce potential loss at the electrodes and maintain hydration of the proton-conducting membrane (56).

  • Patent number: 7080762
    Abstract: An apparatus for softening or “breaking-in” the leather on baseball and softball gloves comprises a cabinet having a hinged cover with a concave center portion of a gum-type rubber. A mushroom shaped ball head extends upwardly from the cabinet surface to engage a glove held in place by the domed cover surface. The ball head rotates and orbits about a bent shaft at a high speed and engages the pocket or other portion of a leather glove. The ball head softens the glove by physical contact as well as friction-induced heat.

  • Patent number: 5044773
    Abstract: A container for receiving and holding an object comprises generally parallel front and rear panels, generally parallel side panels, and a bottom panel, the edges of the front, rear and side panels being joined together and being joined with the bottom panel to form a generally bag-like container with an open top. The top edges of the front, rear and side panels are folded toward the bottom panel to form a reinforcing cuff proximate the open top of the container. A support member includes a first portion installed within the cuff and a second portion extending from the first portion out of the cuff and beyond the top of the container. The second support member portion includes an opening for receiving a supporting member for supporting the container in a hanging condition.
