Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090243535Multi-Input Relay Board - Fan relay boards are provided that include terminals configured to receive line power of approximately 115 volts, 208 volts, 230 volts, and 277 volts. The boards are configured to convert the line power to an approximately 24 volt output that is applied to a distribution circuit to select a high, medium, or low fan speed using relays. The boards may be coupled to a control device that designates the fan speed selected by the relays. The boards also may provide an approximately 24 volt power supply to external devices such as electric heaters, valves, and switches.10-01-2009

20100063948MACHINE LEARNING METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR IDENTIFYING PATTERNS IN DATA - Methods for training machines to categorize data, and/or recognize patterns in data, and machines and systems so trained. More specifically, variations of the invention relates to methods for training machines that include providing one or more training data samples encompassing one or more data classes, identifying patterns in the one or more training data samples, providing one or more data samples representing one or more unknown classes of data, identifying patterns in the one or more of the data samples of unknown class(es), and predicting one or more classes to which the data samples of unknown class(es) belong by comparing patterns identified in said one or more data samples of unknown class with patterns identified in said one or more training data samples. Also provided are tools, systems, and devices, such as support vector machines (SVMs) and other methods and features, software implementing the methods and features, and computers or other processing devices incorporating and/or running the software, where the methods and features, software, and processors utilize specialized methods to analyze data.03-11-2010
20100274539METHODS FOR MAPPING DATA INTO LOWER DIMENSIONS - Methods and systems for creating ensembles of hypersurfaces in high-dimensional feature spaces, and to machines and systems relating thereto. More specifically, exemplary aspects of the invention relate to methods and systems for generating supervised hypersurfaces based on user domain expertise, machine learning techniques, or other supervised learning techniques. These supervised hypersurfaces may optionally be combined with unsupervised hypersurfaces derived from unsupervised learning techniques. Lower-dimensional subspaces may be determined by the methods and systems for creating ensembles of hypersurfaces in high-dimensional feature spaces. Data may then be projected onto the lower-dimensional subspaces for use, e.g., in further data discovery, visualization for display, or database access. Also provided are tools, systems, devices, and software implementing the methods, and computers embodying the methods and/or running the software, where the methods, software, and computers utilize various aspects of the present invention relating to analyzing data.10-28-2010

20080281554SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REPAIRING COMPOSITE PARTS - A composite repair system and method for assisting in the repair of a cured composite part in which a damaged portion has been cut out and removed, exposing a plurality of composite plies and their corresponding composite ply edges. The composite repair system may comprise a light source to illuminate the ply edges, an image capturing device to obtain an image of the ply edges, and a computing device for processing the image of the ply edges and creating a map of the ply edges based on the image. The map may be used to manufacture filler plies having peripheral edges shaped to correspond with the composite ply edges for replacing the damaged portion of the composite part.11-13-2008

20090162141Dowel assembly for a furniture system - A dowel assembly for a furniture system provides a fastener usable in assembling various components in a furniture system. The dowel may be employed to define the relationship between first and second components of the furniture system, such as the relationship between adjoining planar surfaces of adjacent furniture panels. The dowel is fitted with a cam such that the cam provides a non-uniform radius at the interface between the dowel and one of the components. Through selective positioning of the cam about the longitudinal axis of the dowel, the interface between components of the furniture system may be selectively adjusted to ensure flush alignment of contiguous surfaces.06-25-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090000237Trim assembly - A furniture arrangement is formed of vertical panels and a horizontal furniture panel which are joined together. The vertical panel comprises a main panel body having the opposite vertical edges thereof enclosed by vertical trim elements, and the horizontal top edge enclosed by a horizontal trim element. For decorative purposes, an additional decorative inlay is provided adjacent and parallel to the trim elements, which inlay is formed of a second, aesthetically different inlay material, such as extruded aluminum or other metal. The horizontal furniture panel may include similar trim elements which further include additional decorative inlays.01-01-2009
20090001859Furniture system - A furniture system which is readily reconfigurable into a variety of work surface configurations and shelving configurations as well as additional component configurations associated therewith so as to readily adapt the furniture system to the specific needs of an office area. The system includes a system of brackets which readily accommodates mounting of work surfaces at a variety of elevations, and a shelving system which maintains shelves of different materials and thicknesses so that the top surfaces thereof align in a common plane.01-01-2009
