Title: Systems and methods for privacy preserving determination of intersections of sets of user identifiers
Inventor: Michael William Daub
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2020-05-29
Abstract: At least one aspect is directed to determining an estimate of an intersection of user identifiers in a first set of user identifiers and a second set of user identifiers. The first and second sets of user identifiers can be populated with user identifiers that have interacted with the same content item or content item campaign. Estimates of intersections of the first and the second sets can be determined based on a binomial vector approach, a vector of counts approach, or a hybrid approach. The binomial vector approach generates vectors based on k hashes of each user identifier in the first set and summing the vectors to generate a first vector. The intersection can be determined based on a dot product of the first vector and a second vector similarly generated from the second set of user identifiers.

Title: Hand-held power tool having grasp-activated power switch
Inventor: MARK VINCENT GRASSANO
IPC: B25F5/02
Filed: 2021-04-20
Abstract: A grasp-activated power switch is integrated within a handle for a hand-held power tool. The switch has an inner channel having an outer conductive layer, and a flexible outer shell having an inner conductive layer separated from the outer conductive layer by an air gap. On its surface the outer shell has actuating and non-actuating areas. A manual grasping force when applied to the actuating area flexes the inner conductive layer across the gap and electrically couples the two layers. The closure energizes an RF transmitter, which sends a pulse to a complementary receiver. With each pulse, the receiver toggles power to a motor off or on, and when on, the motor transmits power through the inner channel. When operating the tool, an operator may grasp the non-actuating area to avoid powering the tool off or on.

Title: Fast and flexible holomorphic embedding concept-based power grid load margin evaluation method
Inventor: TAO WANG
IPC: H02J3/06
Filed: 2022-01-26
Abstract: Disclosed is a fast and flexible holomorphic embedding concept-based power grid load margin evaluation method. Said method comprises the following steps: S1, indirectly acquiring required decrypted power grid data from a partner; S2, establishing a continuous power flow equation model; S3, using an FFHE concept to solve a continuous power flow equation; and S4, designing and planning a scheduling strategy of a power grid according to the solved load margin. Compared to prediction by means of a linear function, the prediction in the present invention which uses approximation by rational functions obtained on the basis of arc-length series expansion is more accurate and efficient, avoiding the need of performing correction by inefficient, intricate, and repeated usage of a local solver. An effective solution is developed to efficiently solve such a nonlinear equation set. The present invention is significantly improved compared to the existing methods in aspects such as calculation efficiency, calculation precision, and calculation scale. Compared to the CPFLOW method which describes a P-V curve by storing numerical solution information at thousands of discrete points, a large amount of storage space can be saved.
