Patent CA-2667288-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAGE FRANK WILLIAM
IPC: G01W1/14
Filed: 2007-10-15
Abstract: A precipitation measurement device (100) measures a precipitation rate of falling precipitation. A first probe (105) is exposed to the falling precipitation. A first temperature sensor (107) detects a first probe temperature. A second probe (106) is shielded from the falling precipitation. A second temperature sensor (108) detects a second probe temperature. A heating element (103) heats the first probe (105) and the second probe (106) when turned on, but not when turned off. After being heated and when the heating element (103) is turned off, the first probe (105) cools at a first temperature drop rate, and the second probe (106) cools at a second temperature drop rate. Circuitry (109) processes a difference between the first temperature drop rate and the second temperature drop rate to determine the precipitation rate of the falling precipitation.

Title: Predicting and reducing industrial loss events
Inventor: Mei zhu-song
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2009-07-20
Abstract: Current monitoring systems often provide the operating condition of a specific component and do not consider the impact of a specific failure upon an entire system or a business. Nor do the current systems provide an avenue for the business to predict the loss, as well as its impact, and make an educated decision of mitigating the loss based upon economic, environmental, and health and safety considerations. Methods and systems are provided for predicting loss events, impacts of loss events, and providing potential corrective measures to reduce or eliminate the occurrence or impact of the loss events. One aspect relates to the use of system-wide information to predict variables that are directly linked to business impact, such as production loss. Extraneous and transactional data are also utilized according to other aspects of the invention.

Patent CA-2683206-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HERMARY TERRANCE J
IPC: G01N21/55
Filed: 2009-10-17
Abstract: This invention provides accurate, high quality images for the identification of the surface characteristics of an object, that may be used as an input to suitable industrial process. It involves acquiring a first raw scan of a portion of a target object across a scan line in a scan zone with a first camera and simultaneously acquiring a second raw scan of the same portion of the target object across the scan line in the scan zone with a second camera. The raw scans are converted to digital and then processed with flattening coefficients derived from measurements of variations in illumination. The first and second cameras sets of flattened image data are then gridized to compensate for parallax, make them orthographic sets of image data that can be compared on a pixel-by-pixel basis with a known or measured geometric profile of the target. A selection of enhanced pixel value for a surface coordinate can then be made, based on both sets of data. The obscuring of surface features by specular reflection can thus be effectively eliminated.
Patent CA-2683273-A1 (CA)
Title: Computer network intrusion detection
Inventor: DIEP THANH A
IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 1999-12-07
Abstract: Detecting harmful or illegal intrusions into a computer network or into restricted portions of a computer network uses statistical analysis to match user commands and program names with a template sequence. Discrete correlation matching and permutation matching are used to match sequences. The result of the match is input to a feature builder and then a modeler to produce a score. The score indicates possible intrusion. A sequence of user commands and program names and a template sequence of known harmful commands and program names from a set of such templates are retrieved. A closeness factor indicative of the similarity between the user command sequence and a template sequence is derived from comparing the two sequences. The user command sequence is compared to each template sequence in the set of templates thereby creating multiple closeness or similarity measurements. These measurements are examined to determine which sequence template is most similar to the user command sequence. A frequency feature associated with the user command sequence and the most similar template sequence is calculated. It is determined whether the user command sequence is a potential intrusion into restricted portions of the computer network by examining output from a modeler using the frequency feature as one input.
