| 20080197000 | Guide For Conveyor Of Articles - A guide for a conveyor of articles, comprising: a guide element elongated in a longitudinal direction and intended in use to be arranged along a transport path of a conveyor of articles for the containment and/or the routing of the transported articles, said guide element comprising a substantially planar portion and first and second edges opposed to each other in a first transversal direction, transversal to said longitudinal direction; a clamp is associable to said guide element, the clamp comprising a back portion and two clamp appendixes opposed to each other in said first transversal direction and adapted to clamp said guide element along said first and second edges. The clamp is adapted to the coupling to a support bar of the conveyor of articles intended to support the guide element to a frame of the conveyor; tightening means are provided, associable to said clamp and actuatable to exert an action of traction on the appendixes of the clamp to urge them one towards the other in said first transversal direction, so as to tighten said clamp appendixes against said first and second edges of the guide element. The clamp appendixes of the clamp and the first and second edges of the guide element are shaped in such a way as to at least partly transform the action of traction exerted by said tightening means into a urging action of the guide element toward the back portion of the clamp, the urging action being adapted to bring the planar portion of the guide element in abutment against at least one among said support bar or said tightening means. | 08-21-2008 |

| 20090121148 | High Brightness Solid State Ion Beam Generator, its use, and Method for Making such a Generator - Ion sources or generators for focused ion beam emission (FIB) applications emitting ion beams into vacuum or a gas are used in industry and research for the characterization and processing of surfaces. With appropriate focusing, such ion beams can be confined to diameters of a few nanometers. The tip of technical FIB generators for producing such focused beams consists of a liquid metal, gallium in general, which tends to fluctuate during operation. This has a negative influence on the stability of the emission current and the focus definition. It is also possible to generate an FIB with solid tips, consisting of a solid metal, but such tips deteriorate rapidly during operation due to erosion of material from the tip apex. The present invention concerns a novel FIB source generating free space ion beams from a solid source but does not exhibit the above-mentioned erosion effect at the apex. The novel FIB generator consists of a combination of two essentially unitary bodies, a solid electrolyte body with a sharp tip and a solid ion reservoir body, both bodies having close contact with each other. The reservoir is made of or contains the same material, in general a metal as the mobile ions. Loss of ions from the electrolyte body due to emission is compensated by an inflow of ions from the reservoir body during operation. This practically preserves electro-neutrality which is a precondition for continuous mode operation. Erosion of the tip of the electrolyte body does not occur since the counter ions form a solid matrix and the emitted ions are replenished during operation. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20080300879 | FACTORIAL HIDDEN MARKOV MODEL WITH DISCRETE OBSERVATIONS - A method for analyzing hidden dynamics, includes acquiring discrete observations, each discrete observation having an observed value selected from two or more allowed discrete values. A factorial hidden Markov model (FHMM) relating the discrete observations with a plurality of hidden dynamics is constructed. A contribution of the state of each hidden dynamic to the discrete observation may be represented in the FHMM as a parameter of a nominal distribution which is scaled by a function of the state of the hidden dynamic. States of the hidden dynamics are inferred from the discrete observations based on the FHMM. Information corresponding to at least one inferred state of at least one of the hidden dynamics is output. The parameters of the contribution of each dynamic to the hidden states may be learnt from a large number of observations. An example of a networked printing system is used to demonstrate the applicability of the method. | 12-04-2008 |

| 20110055122 | MONITORING WITH ADAPTIVE DYNAMIC CLASSIFICATION - In a monitoring method, a time sequence of information pertaining to a monitored device, network, or system is recorded, comprising observations of the monitored device, network, or system and known prior correct action recommendations for the monitored device, network, or system. A hidden Markov model (HMM) operating on the time sequence of information is maintained. The HMM comprises a hidden state of the monitored device, network, or system. A current state of the monitored device, network, or system is classified using a classification value comprising an emission of the HMM that depends on an estimate of the distribution of the hidden state and on a selected portion of the time sequence of information. An action recommendation is generated for the current state of the monitored device, network, or system based on the classification value. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110265086 | USER AND DEVICE LOCALIZATION USING PROBABILISTIC DEVICE LOG TRILATERATION - A system and method of localizing elements (shared devices and/or their users) in a device infrastructure, such as a printing network, are provided. The method includes mapping a structure in which the elements of a device infrastructure are located, the elements comprising shared devices and users of the shared devices. Probable locations of fewer than all of the elements in the structure are mapped, with at least some of the elements being initially assigned to an unknown location. Usage logs for a plurality of the shared devices are acquired. The acquired usage log for each device includes a user identifier for each of a set of uses of the device, each of the uses being initiated from a respective location within the mapped structure by one of the users. Based on the acquired usage logs and the input probable locations of some of the elements, locations of at least some of the elements initially assigned to an unknown location are predicted. The prediction is based a model which infers that for each of a plurality of the users, a usage of at least some of the shared devices by the user is a function of respective distances between the user and each of those devices. | 10-27-2011 |
| 20110270796 | ON-LINE AUTOREGRESSIVE PREDICTION IN TIME SERIES WITH DELAYED DISCLOSURE AND MONITOR SYSTEMS USING SAME - An apparatus operating on a time sequence of events comprises an event handling module configured to generate a predicted label for a current observed event of the time sequence of events, and a true label handling module configured to process a true label revealed for an observed event of the time sequence of events. The event handling module and the true label handling module cooperatively model stochastic dependence of a true label for the current observed event based on observed events of the time sequence of events and revealed true labels for past observed events of the time sequence of events. The event handling module and the true label handling module operate asynchronously. The event handling module and the true response handling module are suitably embodied by one or more digital processors. | 11-03-2011 |
