20100287617 | METHOD FOR COMMUNICATION SECURITY AND APPARATUS THEREFOR - A FireNet security system in which trustworthy networks, called BlackNets, each comprising One (1) or more client computers, are protected by FireBreaks against attacks from untrustworthy networks, called RedNets. All incoming transactions from the RedNet are examined by the FireBreak to determine if they violate any of a plurality of protection rules stored in a local protection rules database. Any transaction found to be in violation is discarded. Valid transactions are forwarded to the BlackNet. If an otherwise valid transaction is found to be suspicious, the FireBreak will forward to a FireNet Server relevant information relating to that transaction. If the FireNet Server verifies that the transaction is indeed part of an attack, the FireNet Server will create new protection rules suitable to defend against the newly identified source or strategy of attack. Periodically, all FireBreaks in the FireNet system will transfer, directly or indirectly, all new rules. | 11-11-2010 |

20140040075 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SELECTION AND ORGANIZATION OF CUSTOMER ORDERS IN PREPARATION FOR DISTRIBUTION OPERATIONS ORDER FULFILLMENT - A system may receive orders from disparate sources, each order specifying at least one item located in a physical storage area divided into subareas. The orders may be prioritized for desired processing sequence. The system may determine, beginning with high priority orders specifying at least two items for each order, a virtual order footprint that represents all of the subareas corresponding to the items in the order and form a plurality of virtual potential pick batches, each virtual potential pick batch comprising orders in a unique virtual order footprint. When a configurable limit is reached, the number of orders in each virtual potential pick batch is determined. The order counts are a factor in determining which of the virtual potential pick batches are to be released for processing by available work resources. All other non-selected virtual potential pick batches are deconstructed awaiting the future availability of work resources. | 02-06-2014 |

20130202199 | USING HIGHER ORDER STATISTICS TO ESTIMATE PIXEL VALUES IN DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING TO IMPROVE ACCURACY AND COMPUTATION EFFICIENCY - A method, system and computer program product for improving accuracy and computation efficiency in interpolation, upsampling and color channel estimation. A Bayesian estimator used to estimate the value of a pixel in an image is constructed using measurements of high-order (e.g., 3rd, 4th, 5th) statics for nearby points in natural images. These measurements reveal highly systematic statistical regularities that were ignored from the prior algorithms due to their restrictive measurements and assumptions. As a result, the accuracy in interpolation, upsampling and color channel prediction is improved. Furthermore, the process for constructing a Bayesian estimator is simpler and more direct by storing in a table the mean value of the pixel value to be estimated for each combination of values of nearby points in training samples. As a result of having a simpler and more direct approach than existing methods, the computational efficiency is improved. | 08-08-2013 |
20140126808 | RECURSIVE CONDITIONAL MEANS IMAGE DENOISING - Methods and composition for denoising digital camera images are provided herein. The method is based on directly measuring the local statistical structure of natural images in a large training set that has been corrupted with noise mimicking digital camera noise. The measured statistics are conditional means of the ground truth pixel value given a local context of input pixels. Each conditional mean is the Bayes optimal (minimum mean squared error) estimate given the specific local context. The conditional means are measured and applied recursively (e.g., the second conditional mean is measured after denoising with the first conditional mean). Each local context vector consists of only three variables, and hence the conditional means can be measured directly without prior assumptions about the underlying probability distributions, and they can be stored in fixed lookup tables. | 05-08-2014 |

20120274153 | LOAD SWITCH HAVING LOAD DETECTION - Conventionally, current detection in load switches is implemented by monitoring the voltage across a small value sense resistor in series with the load switch, where the differential voltage across is applied to a comparator to generate a control signal corresponding to a light load condition, a normal load condition, or an over-load condition. Detecting the light load condition, however, can be difficult to determine using this arrangement due to the low differential voltage. Here, however, a integrated circuit (IC) is provided that employs an internal voltage supply and comparators to examine the load current to determine whether a light load condition is present, which does not suffer from the same problems. | 11-01-2012 |
