20130156256 | STEGANOGRAPHIC ENCODING AND VERIFICATION - Multi-Dimensional Statistical Patchwork Steganographic Encoding and Verification uses fluctuations in image density and brightness to encode a binary cipher and decode the same in the absence of prior knowledge other than that of the existence of encoding and encoding party source. Once encoded, the image can be deciphered without any prior knowledge outside the encoding preference or hallmarks. This allows a party to encode and image, release it publicly, retrieve it at a later time, and decode it without any other knowledge than it was an image they encoded. Using a statistical representation of a defined segment of the image in a mated pair is used to define either a “I” or “0”. The addition of stereoscopic, alternate frequency bands, or harmonic stacking allows multiplication of available bits without degradation of image appearance. Using any pre-defined hallmarks of origin and pattern allow for non-cataloged reference of the encoded image. | 06-20-2013 |

20100235718 | Decoding Techniques for Correcting Errors Using Soft Information - Two levels of error correction decoding are performed using first and second level decoders. A composite code formed by combining an inner component code and an outer component code can be used to decode the data and correct any errors. Performing two level decoding using a composite code allows the size of the inner parity block to be reduced to a single Reed-Solomon symbol while keeping a good code rate. The first level decoder generates soft information. The soft information can indicate a most likely error event for each possible syndrome value of the inner component code. The soft information can also include error metric values for each of the most likely error events. The second level decoder generates corrected syndrome values based on the soft information using the outer component code. The most likely trellis path that corresponds to the corrected syndrome values is then selected. | 09-16-2010 |

20090018848 | Method and apparatus for sending a notification to contacts of a user - In some embodiments, a computer automatically sends notifications to contacts of a traveler, if the traveler does not indicate his return from a trip on time. The traveler arranges for a notification by logging in to a website and entering trip information regarding a trip to be taken by the traveler. The entered trip information includes the traveler's destination, a return date and time, and at least one electronic communication address for contacting a contact. If the traveler indicates his return by the return date and time, the traveler may log in to the website and cancel the notification. However, if after the return date and time, no indication is received that the user has returned from the destination, a computer automatically sends a notification to the electronic communication address, the notification indicating that the user has not returned from the destination by the return date and time. | 01-15-2009 |

20130192799 | Refrigerator Having a Disbursed Cooling Air Stream Directed Upwardly From a Pressurized Plenum - In a refrigerator, warm air is collected or drawn into a warm air return duct opening located at or near the top of the refrigerated space instead of the bottom. The warm air is passed through an evaporator where it cools. The cooled air is driven into a pressurized plenum located at the bottom of the refrigerated space. The plenum is defined by a screen extending across the bottom of the refrigerated space. Air in the plenum passes through holes in the screen and driven upward. The air flow inside the refrigerator is thus upwardly, i.e., from the bottom to the top. | 08-01-2013 |
