Patent GB-2581392-A (GB)
Title: Communications systems
Inventor: CHADI KHIRALLAH
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2019-02-15
Abstract: A base station configured as a secondary node (SN), and handling user-plane transmissions for a user equipment (UE), sends information to a master node about the total integrity protected data rate for all Protocol Data Unit (PDU) sessions associated with the UE at that node. If this information indicates that the total integrity protected data rate for these sessions exceeds an associated data rate portion, the data rate portion or one of the PDU sessions are updated. Prior to this, the base station configured as the master node may receive from a core network node an indication that a total of integrity protected traffic for one of the sessions has reached a predetermined level. Updating a PDU session may involve removing a Data Radio Bearer (DRB), changing a SN terminated bearer to a master node (MN) terminated bearer, or dropping the SN. A portion of the PDU session integrity protected maximum data rate may be allocated to the SN and the remainder to the MN. The scheme may be used to enforce integrity protected data rate in a 5G communication network.

Title: Graph conversion method
Inventor: DAVID NORMAN
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 2019-04-02
Abstract: A method for generating an executable program to run on a system of processor chips each comprising a plurality of tiles. The method comprises: receiving a graph 502 comprising a plurality of data nodes, compute vertices and directional edges, wherein the graph is received in a first graph format that does not specify which data nodes and vertices are allocated to which of the tiles; and generating an application programming interface, API 509, for converting the graph, to determine a tile-mapping allocating the data nodes and vertices amongst the tiles. The generating of the API comprises searching the graph to identify compute vertices which match any of a predetermined set of one or more compute vertex types. The API is then called to convert the graph to a second graph format 508b that includes the tile-mapping, including the allocation by the assigned memory allocation functions, which is then complied to generate the executable program 506. The data nodes may comprise tensors have at least 2 dimensions, preferably three. The graph may comprise a neural network.

Title: Systems and methods to monitor operating processes
Inventor: JOSEPH H SHARPE
IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 2014-01-13
Abstract: Monitoring an equipment parameter associated with an asset in an operating process unit and monitoring a process parameter associated with the asset. Determining an asset health corresponding to the asset based on a measured potential state of thermal stress associated with the asset by comparing a thermal stress index to a thermal stress threshold. The thermal stress index is a function of at least one of current values or changes detected in the monitored equipment parameter or the monitored process parameter over time. Determining thermal stress may include weighting the monitored equipment parameter. The system may further comprise a corrosion analyser to determine a potential state of corrosion of the asset by comparing a corrosivity index to a corrosion threshold, the corrosivity index being related to the values of the monitored equipment over time. This invention aims to help with the prediction of deterioration within equipment exposed to thermal stress.

Filed: 2019-03-05
Abstract: The present invention achieves a chromatography mass spectrometry method capable of performing peak detection able to accommodate a wide range of sample component concentrations, and capable of providing an evaluation value relating to the result of the peak detection. A plurality of samples having known components with different concentrations are measured, and a start point, an apex, and an end point of peaks are detected (steps 101-1, 101-2). A score function is determined, taking as a score an evaluation value of a degree of certainty, for example, for the start point, the apex, and the end point of the detected peaks (step 101-3). A component having an unknown concentration is measured, and the start point, the apex, and the end point of a peak are detected (steps 102-1, 102-2). A peak detection result is evaluated by applying the score function for the start point, apex, and end point of the detected peaks, and the peak having the highest evaluation is selected as a peak (step 102-3).

Title: Testing applications with a defined input format
Inventor: Franjo Ivancic
IPC: G06F40/143
Filed: 2017-09-21
Abstract: A method of testing the performance of applications includes receiving a first sequence of text element values and determining, based on the first sequence and a recurrent neural network trained with a corpus of documents containing sequences (e.g. strings of text characters) with a defined format (e.g. HTML, PDF, CSS), a probability value related to the predictability of a first text element value following the received first sequence. The probability value is compared to a random number and, based on the comparison, either the first text element value or a second text element value is selected, and a second sequence of text element values comprising the first sequence followed by the selected text element value is generated. The second sequence of text element values is processed with an application (e.g. a web browser) and a performance characteristic, including a security characteristic, of the application is tested when the application processes the second sequence of text elements.

Title: Temporal calibration of an angiographic imaging system
Inventor: WILLIAM E BUTLER
IPC: G03B42/04
Filed: 2020-03-09
Abstract: Angiographic data is obtained by injecting a chemical contrast agent intravascularly, and imaging passage of the contrast as a function of time, thereby generating a sequence of images. To correct error from uncalibrated timestamps embedded in the image metadata, radio-opaque markers are used to generate a watermark embedding timestamp data in obtained images. The radio-opaque markers cause opacification on the x-ray images in the form of dynamic watermarks that encode timestamps. The positions of the markers in the watermark (cast from the radio-opaque markers) are then processed and analyzed to generate an accurate timestamp for the image. By generating an accurate timestamp, synchronized calculations of the images with other data sources are provided.
