20120066195SEARCH ASSIST POWERED BY SESSION ANALYSIS - One embodiment selects from a set of query-suggestion pairs a first query and a subset of query-suggestion pairs that each has the first query as its query; computes a Log Likelihood Ratio (LLR) value for each query-suggestion pair from the subset of query-suggestion pairs; ranks the subset of query-suggestion pairs according to their respective LLR values; removes from the subset of query-suggestion pairs all query-suggestion pairs whose LLR values are below a predetermined LLR threshold; computes a Pointwise Mutual Information (PMI) value for each remaining query suggestion pair from the subset of query-suggestion pairs; removes from the subset of query-suggestion pairs all query-suggestion pairs whose PMI values are below a predetermine PMI threshold; and constructs a ranked set of suggestions for the first query, wherein the ranked set of suggestions comprises one or more suggestions of the remaining query-suggestion pairs from the subset of query-suggestion pairs.03-15-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120011186METHOD FOR QUANTIFYING AND ANALYZING INTRINSIC PARALLELISM OF AN ALGORITHM - A method for quantifying and analyzing intrinsic parallelism of an algorithm is adapted to be implemented by a computer, and includes the steps of: configuring the computer to represent the algorithm by means of a plurality of operation sets; configuring the computer to obtain a Laplacian matrix according to the operation sets; configuring the computer to compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the Laplacian matrix; and configuring the computer to obtain a set of information related to intrinsic parallelism of the algorithm according to the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of the Laplacian matrix.01-12-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100142607Methods and Systems for Transmitting Data by Modulating Transmitter Filter Coefficients - A signaling system supports main and auxiliary communication channels between integrated circuits in the same direction over a single link. An equalizing transmitter applies appropriate filter coefficients to minimize the impact of intersymbol interference when transmitting the main data over a communication channel. The transmitter modulates at least one of the filter coefficients with the auxiliary data to induce apparent ISI in the transmitted signal. A main receiver ignores the apparent ISI to recover the main data, while an auxiliary receiver detects and demodulates the apparent ISI to recover the auxiliary data. The auxiliary data may be encoded using spread-spectrum techniques to reduce the impact of the auxiliary data on the main data.06-10-2010
20110043220METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR POWER SEQUENCE TIMING TO MITIGATE SUPPLY RESONANCE IN POWER DISTRIBUTION NETWORK - The transient load current of a circuit powered by a power distribution network is increased in a plurality of steps, with the step transition times being adjusted based on the transient noise of the power distribution network. This reduces the resonance noise that would otherwise occur in the supply current of the power distribution network.02-24-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090254083ROBOTIC ABLATION CATHETER - Assemblies, systems, and methods related to remotely-steerable ablation procedures are described. A necked-down ablation catheter may be coupled within a working lumen of a robotically-steerable sheath configured to be driveably coupled to an electromechanical instrument driver. The ablation catheter may be an irrigated ablation catheter having an irrigation fluid reservoir at its distal tip. The outer diameter of the distal portion of the ablation catheter is generally larger than that of the more proximal aspects due, in part, to the fact that the proximal aspects are designed to fit through a relatively low-profile steerable sheath.10-08-2009

20100189653Pyrone analogs for therapeutic treatment - Methods are described for the treatment and prevention of metabolic disorders or other diseases by administering a pyrone analog or a derivative thereof. Methods are also described for the treatment and prevention of metabolic disorders and other diseases by administering a pyrone analog, or a derivative thereof, in combination with one or more additional agents such as, for example, lipid lowering agents or glucose lowering agents. Methods are described for the modulation of lipid transporter activity to increase the efflux of lipid from a physiological compartment into an external environment. Methods disclosed herein may be used to assess treatment or prevention of a metabolic disorder following administration of a pyrone analog or a derivative thereof.07-29-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080284536Dual Mode Power Amplifier - A dual mode power amplifier can include a linear gain section and a non-linear gain section configured together as a polar amplifier. The dual mode power amplifier may be used to transmit GFSK, 4-DPSK, and 8-DPSK modulated data. In one mode, both non-linear and linear gain sections may be used to transmit 4-DPSK and 8-DPSK modulated data. Alternatively, in another mode, the linear gain section may be bypassed while the non-linear gain section may be used to transmit GFSK modulated data. By selecting the operating mode, the dual mode power amplifier may be advantageously configured to use relatively less power while supporting GFSK, 4-DPSK, and 8-DPSK modulation schemes.11-20-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100008070BACK LIGHT MODULE WITH DIFFRACTIVE COUPLERS - A back light module which uses first diffractive optics to couple light into a light guide and uses second diffractive optics to extract light from the light guide such that the light emerging from the back light module is uniform. This is accomplished by having an input grating adjacent the light sources at the bottom, or back of the light guide, with the output grating at the top, or front of the light guide. In one embodiment, the portion of the top surface directly opposite the light sources has a less dense arrangement of diffractive couplers, so that less of the initial light from the light sources exits upon the first contact with the top surface. Alternately, a modular light guide with angled light guide surfaces is used to couple in light from the light source, instead of the diffractive in-couplers.01-14-2010
