Patent number: 11864537Abstract: An AI-based system and method for feed monitoring in a land-based fish farm, where the fish farm has a tank containing fish and an effluent pipe that is coupled to the tank where uneaten feed pellets and non-pellet objects flow through the effluent pipe to an exit port. A feed camera is mounted to an effluent pipe for capturing a video feed having images of objects that traverse a field of view of the feed camera when each image is acquired. A special-purpose computer executes a pellet-tracking algorithm that employs a region of interest (ROI) proposal module, an ROI classification module, an ROI tracking module, and a trajectory classification module for at least counting uneaten feed pellets. The computer generates in real time a pellet count based on the pellet trajectories.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: ReelData Inc.Inventors: William Stone, Pedram Adibi

Publication number: 20230283532Abstract: An organization has or uses an SLA system that selects a service-level agreement (SLA) that should apply to a given user request. The SLA system then can monitor the state of the ticket created based on the user request and provide messages or other feedback to the agent to aid the agent in meeting any performance goals associated with the SLA. The SLA system can determine the SLA to associate with a given user request by inferring a type of the request and selecting the SLA based on the type, or by using a model to directly associate an SLA to a given user request, without the need to infer an intermediate type for the user request, which eliminates the need for administrators to create and maintain metadata to guide the association between types and SLAs.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2022Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Ankit Goyal, Zachary Thomas Hart, Jose Solano, Tanya Butani, William Stone Potter, Suchit Agarwal, Pratyus Patnaik

Publication number: 20220344250Abstract: Integrated circuit (IC) packages employing a capacitor-embedded, redistribution layer (RDL) substrate and related fabrication methods. The embedded capacitor can be coupled to a power distribution network (PDN) to provide decoupling capacitance to reduce current-resistance (IR) drop. The RDL substrate is disposed between the IC chip(s) and the package substrate to minimize distance between the embedded capacitor(s) and the IC chip(s) to reduce the parasitic inductance in the PDN, thus reducing PDN noise. With the RDL substrate disposed between the package substrate and the IC chip(s), the RDL substrate needs to support through-interconnections between the package substrate and the IC chip(s). In this regard, the RDL substrate includes an outer RDL layer adjacent to the IC chip(s) to support small pitch metal interconnects as well as provide fan-out capability.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2021Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Jihong Choi, Giridhar Nallapati, William Stone, Jianwen Xu, Jonghae Kim, Periannan Chidambaram, Ahmer Syed

Patent number: 10815458Abstract: Compositions and methods of activating dendritic cells with LMP1 and LMP1-activated dendritic cell based compositions and methods are effective for dendritic cell therapy and provide an adjuvant function for vaccine administration. LMP1 or LMP1-CD40 chimeric protein may be used to activate and mature dendritic cells. LMP1 and LMP1-activated dendritic cells act as an adjuvant to enhance the cellular immune response. Also disclosed herein are kits for activating dendritic cells and for preparing a vaccine formulation. Administration of the dendritic cells transfected with LMP1 can induce an immune response against cancer or infection. The mature dendritic cells may comprise an antigen and at least one cytokine in addition to LMP1. Use of LMP1 or LMP1-CD40 provides a way to activate and mature dendritic cells that retain functional and migratory abilities without the side effects that result from maturing the dendritic cells using PGE2.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2018Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF MIAMIInventor: Geoffrey William Stone
