Carlos A. Arguelles, Shoreline, WA US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100054544Photography Auto-Triage - Photography auto-triage is described. In embodiment(s), at least a portion of each photograph in a group of photographs can be analyzed with triage filters of an auto-triage service to identify deficient photographs. A deficient photograph can be identified and then removed from the group of photographs.03-04-2010

20090092340NATURAL LANGUAGE ASSISTANCE FOR DIGITAL IMAGE INDEXING - A processing device and method may provide natural language assistance for digital image indexing. Candidate keywords may be generated based on an entered keyword for a digital image file. The candidate keywords may be synonyms of the entered keyword, or otherwise related to the entered keyword. The candidate keywords may be ranked as possible keywords for the digital image file based on use of the candidate keywords as keywords of other digital image files. Similarity measures of the other digital image files may be determined based on aspects of the other digital image files compared with the corresponding aspects of the digital image file. Rankings of the candidate keywords may be adjusted based on the similarity measures of the other digital image files. At least some of the ranked candidate keywords may be presented.04-09-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110209421PAN TILE ROOFING SYSTEM - A pan tile for use in a roofing system and assembly, wherein a plurality of such pan tiles are disposed in confronting, supported relation on an underlying roof support and in underlying, at least partially supporting relation to plurality of overlapping, exteriorly exposed roof tiles, wherein the pan tiles may be structured individually or integrally in longitudinal arrays. The pan tile includes a planar base and two oppositely disposed planar side segments extending outwardly from opposite peripheries of said base at a common, preferred obtuse angle. Leading and trailing ends of pan tiles have a greater and lesser transverse dimension respectively, wherein the side segments or oriented in a converging configuration extending from the leading end to the trailing end of the pan tile. Solar energy systems may also be incorporated in the individual pan tiles and/or the longitudinal arrays thereof. The roofing assembly may further include a heat dissipating assembly and/or a stabilizing assembly.09-01-2011

20080296236APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR INCREASING FILTER CAPACITY USING ULTRASONIC REGENERATION - A filter system and associated methods of filtering utilize a combination of ultrasonically enhanced backwashing and a modified filter media configurations for increasing the specific loading on a portion of the filter media, thereby tending to increase the total particulate holding capacity of the improved filter. Depending on factors such as the filter configuration, the particulate size distribution and the differential pressure that can be maintained across the filter, it is expected that the particulate holding capacity can be more than doubled relative to a conventional filter having similarly configured filter media.12-04-2008
20090241985High power density ultrasonic fuel cleaning with planar transducers - Provided are a range of ultrasonic cleaning assemblies that include radiating surfaces activated by corresponding arrays of planar transducers configured to increase the power applied to a reduced volume of fluid associated with a fuel assembly, thereby increasing that applied power density for improved cleaning. The individual ultrasonic cleaning assemblies may be arranged in a variety of modules that, in turn, may be combined to increase the length of the cleaning zone and provide variations in the power density applied to improve the cleaning uniformity.10-01-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110271986LOW-PRESSURE SLUDGE REMOVAL METHOD AND APPARATUS USING COHERENT JET NOZZLES - Provided area cleaning apparatus and an associated method of using the disclosed apparatus wherein the apparatus utilizes one or more nozzles configured to provide a coherent stream of one or more cleaning fluids for removing accumulated fine particulate matter, sludge, from surfaces. The nozzles may be sized, arranged and configured to provide coherent streams that maintain the initial stream diameter for a substantial portion of the maximum dimension of the space being cleaned. The apparatus and method are expected to be particularly useful in the cleaning of heat exchangers incorporating a plurality of substantially vertical and narrowly spaced tubes by directing cleansing streams along a plurality of intertube spaces.11-10-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090275645METHOD TO INDUCE NEOVASCULAR FORMATION AND TISSUE REGENERATION - The present invention relates, e.g., to a method for inducing arteriogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, vasculogenesis, or cardiomyogenesis, and/or for inducing mitosis or proliferation of a smooth muscle cell, a skeletal muscle cell, or a cardiomyocyte, comprising administering to a cell or tissue in need thereof a dose of a polynucleotide that encodes a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), or that encodes a polypeptide comprising an active site of the VEGF. The coding sequence is operably linked to an expression control sequence; and the dose is sufficient to induce arteriogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, vasculogenesis, or cardiomyogenesis, and/or to induce mitosis or proliferation of a smooth muscle cell, a skeletal muscle cell, or a cardiomyocyte. In preferred embodiments of the invention, the method is a method of tissue regeneration, particularly of cardiomyogenesis; and the polynucleotide (or a polypeptide encoded by such a polynucleotide) is administered into the myocardium.11-05-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100057502SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EMERGENCY TRACKING - An emergency tracking system and method is disclosed that determines location information of individuals based upon travel information and financial transaction information, receives crisis information related to a crisis and determines a subset of individuals potentially impacted by the crisis based on the location information. The system may also notify a third party regarding the subset of individuals and send message to the subset of individuals, wherein the message includes alternative arrangements to at least one of minimize or avoid the crisis. The system also allows an employer to enter search criteria to locate certain types of employees and view such employees on a graphical display of a map.03-04-2010
