Patent number: 12113680Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums which determine jitter buffer delay by inputting jitter buffer and currently observed network status information to a machine learned model that is trained using a reinforcement learning (RL) method. The model maps these inputs to an action to compress, stretch, or hold the jitter buffer delay, which is used by a recipient computing device to optimize the jitter buffer delay. The model may be trained using a simulator that uses network traces of past real streaming sessions (e.g., communication sessions) of users. By training the model through reinforcement learning, the model learns to make better decisions through reinforcement in the form of reward signals that reflect the performance of each decision.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2022Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Xiulian Peng, Vinod Prakash, Xiangyu Kong, Sriram Srinivasan, Yan Lu

Patent number: 8133726Abstract: Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) specific for antigenic peptides derived from IgE molecule can be generated in vitro by stimulating resting naive CD8 T cells with IgE peptides presented by artificial antigen presenting cells. The IgE specific CTLs lyse the target cells loaded with IgE peptides in vitro and inhibit antigen specific IgE response in vivo. In addition, adoptive transfer of the IgE specific CTL to an asthmatic mouse model can inhibit the development of lung inflammation and airway hypersensitivity. IgE specific CTL provides a treatment for allergic asthma and other IgE-mediated allergic diseases. Antigenic peptides identified from non-tumor self-antigens induce specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) in vitro. The CTL induced by peptides identified from CD40L can kill activated CD4 T cells. In vitro generated CTL specific for CD40L inhibit CD4-dependent antibody responses of all isotypes in vivo.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2010Date of Patent: March 13, 2012Assignee: Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical Corp.Inventors: Zeling Cai, Michael R.
