Title: Method of operating a media scanner
Inventor: Hugh Soulsby
IPC: G06F21/85
Filed: 2019-10-08
Abstract: A method of operating a media scanner to protect a target machine from malware on a removable storage device. The target machine and the removable storage device each comprise a respective data line, and the media scanner comprises a data switch. Data is scanned on the removable storage device with malware detection software of the media scanner via a first data path, the first data path comprising the data line of the removable storage device connected to the data line of the media scanner by the data switch in a first switching state. After the data has been scanned with the malware detection software, the data switch is operated to switch from the first switching state to a second switching state, thereby disconnecting the data line of the removable storage device from the data line of the media scanner and connecting the data line of the removable storage device to the data Line of the target machine Data is transferred from the removable storage device to the target machine via a second data path, the second data path comprising the data line of the removable storage device connected to the data line of the target machine by the data switch in the second switching state After the device has been removed, the data switch is returned back to its first switching state.

Title: Method and system for reducing magnetic field instabilities in a magnetic resonance system
Inventor: Geron Andre Bindseil
IPC: G01R33/389
Filed: 2020-09-03
Abstract: Inhomogeneity in an imaging magnetic field during MRI is compensated by generating a corrective magnetic field 108, the corrective magnetic field having first and second magnetic field components with a phase separation therebetween 106. The first and second components are generated according to a stability parameter decomposed from a stability field that corrects an instability identified within the imaging magnetic field. The components may be in-phase and out-of-phase components, i.e. real and imaginary components, or the phase separation may be a 90 degree phase shift. Shim coils may be used to generate the components of the corrective field. The inhomogeneity may be sporadic over time and the method may include detecting a change 102 in the instability and dynamically changing the correction field. The corrective field is equal and opposite to the inhomogeneity or temporal instability in the main magnetic field.

Title: Class prediction based on multiple items of feature data
Inventor: EMRE ÖZER
IPC: G06N7/02
Filed: 2021-06-11
Abstract: In learning phase 30, training data 31 with known classification are used as inputs and for each event of the training data multiple items of feature data are mapped to encodings, where a range of values for each feature input are mapped to a given encoding. A concatenated encoding for the event forms a joint feature item and class counters are used to count class known to be associated with the training event for the joint feature item in a table. At the conclusion of the training phase the class‑counter values enable a predicted class to be associated with each joint feature item in table 33. In inference phase 40, table 33 is used for class prediction generation for new data events based on largest membership values. The inference phase is in hardware with significantly less data handling capability compared to the learning phase. For hardware implementations, mapping each feature value to a fuzzy region makes computing joint memberships tractable and table size manageable because of fewer fuzzy values or regions. Encodings are Hamming distance based. Entry coalescing is also performed where bit positions at which dominant entries and recessive entries differ are stored in the table.

Title: Camping accessory inflation system
Inventor: JONATHAN HARRISON
IPC: E04H15/20
Filed: 2022-01-19
Abstract: The present invention provides a camping assembly 10 comprising an awning 18 which is releasably secured to a side of a caravan although in other embodiments the awning 18 may be releasably secured to the side of a tent/trailer tent/folding camper. The awning 18 comprises a canopy and a network of inflatable air poles 26. The awning 18 may be inflated by a removable pump or by an embedded pump or by air donated from a further inflatable camping structure. The awning 18 comprises a donor valve 16. The donor valve 16 is arranged to inflate a camping accessory 20, 22, 24 by donating a volume of air from the air poles 26 to the camping accessory 20, 22, 24. In this way, the camping accessory can be inflated very quickly and the removal of the air does not significantly impact the structural stability of the awning 18. This provides a readily available and accessible air source which can be advantageous when camping since power supplies for electric pumps may be erratic and limited. In addition, this also reduces the amount of apparatus and equipment which is need. This air source can be replenished as and when convenient and/or when necessary.

Title: A diagnostic kit and a Computer implemented method and system for managing order fulfilment of the diagnostic kit
Inventor: THOMAS JAMES LIVESEY
IPC: G06Q10/08
Filed: 2022-02-15
Abstract: A diagnostic kit, such as a medical self-test kit, is packed into packaging bearing an identifier, such as a two-dimensional code or barcode. The identifier is linked to stored personal data of a person to whom the diagnostic kit is to be delivered. When a fulfilment entity such as a courier scans the identifier, they are given access only to delivery details within the stored personal data, such as the person’s name and address. The privacy of other stored personal data, such as a test request record or diagnostic results, is therefore preserved. Scanning the identifier may provide only one-time access to the delivery details. The identifier may be linked to the personal data via an order identifier created prior to scanning the identifier. The diagnostic kit may have a kit identifier linked to the order identifier and a lot number, stock keeping unit, expiry date, manufacturing date, product name, manufacturer, specification, or instructions. Diagnostic data may be linked to the order identifier by scanning the kit identifier. Only a controller of a system for ordering the diagnostic kits may use the kit identifier to access the personal data or diagnostic data. Other entities may obtain authorisation from the controller.
