Abstract: An Adaptive Human-Computer Interface (AAHCI) allows an electronic system to automatically monitor and learn from normal in-use behavior exhibited by a human user via responses generated by the supported input devices and to adjust output to the supported output devices accordingly. This Auto-Learning process is different than computer-directed training sessions and takes place as the user begins to use the device for the first time and with repeated use over time. The purpose of AHCI is to provide a user experience that is tailored to the skills, preferences, deficiencies and other personal attributes of the user automatically via machine-learned processes. This in turn provides an improved user experience that is more productive and cost efficient and that can automatically optimize itself over time with repeated use.

Abstract translation: 自适应人机界面（AAHCI）允许电子系统通过由所支持的输入设备产生的响应自动监视和学习人类用户所呈现的正常使用行为，并相应地将输出调整到所支持的输出设备。 这种自动学习过程与计算机导向的培训课程不同，并且在用户首次使用设备并随着时间的推移重复使用时进行。 AHCI的目的是通过机器学习的过程自动提供针对用户的技能，偏好，缺陷和其他个人属性的用户体验。 这又提供了改进的用户体验，其具有更高的生产力和成本效益，并且可以随着时间的推移自动优化自身的重复使用。

Abstract: A interactive voice response system that automatically adapts to suit the speed at which the caller interacts with the system. The caller interacts with the system utilizing the keypad buttons on a DTMF-type telephone or by speaking verbal instructions over any type of telephone, and hears spoken instructions and information over the telephone in response to those entries. The system is programmed to measure the response times of the caller and adjust the playing speed of the application dialogue's voice messages accordingly using a caller adaptive response algorithm incorporated into the application software of the voice response system. If the caller is responding relatively fast and without error to the voice message prompts, the caller adaptive response algorithm software will gradually speed up subsequent voice message prompts to a preset, reasonable maximum speech rate. If the caller is responding more slowly to the voice message prompts or is making errors in their responses, the caller adaptive response algorithm software will slow down subsequent voice message prompts to a reasonable, preset minimum speech rate. This process continues throughout the application dialogue such that said system is always closely approximating the natural conversational pace of the caller.

Abstract translation: 交互式语音应答系统，可自动适应呼叫者与系统交互的速度。 呼叫者使用DTMF型电话上的键盘按钮或通过对任何类型的电话进行口头指令进行交互，并通过电话响应于这些条目听到口头指示和信息。 该系统被编程为测量呼叫者的响应时间，并且使用并入到语音响应系统的应用软件中的呼叫者自适应响应算法来相应地调整应用对话的语音消息的播放速度。 如果呼叫者对语音消息提示响应相对较快且没有错误，则呼叫者自适应响应算法软件将逐渐将随后的语音消息提示加速到预设的合理的最大语音速率。 如果呼叫者对语音消息提示响应更慢，或者在其响应中出现错误，则呼叫者自适应响应算法软件会将后续语音消息提示放慢到合理的预设最小语音速率。 该过程在整个应用对话中继续进行，使得所述系统总是紧密接近呼叫者的自然对话速度。

Abstract: A divot repair tool is permanently affixed to the bottom of a flag pin and replaces a standard ferrule. A plunging motion is employed by a user of the divot repair tool. From a standing position, the user grasps the shaft of the flag pin and directs it downward thus causing the divot repair tool to contact the turf in the area of the divot. An outer cylindrical sleeve first contacts the turf and is followed by a blade which is rotated and thrust downward by an internal mechanism. The action of the divot repair tool causes the turf and under lying soil of the divot area to be loosened thus promoting the recovery of the divot area.

Abstract: This invention allows a Voice System to adapt to the speaking accent of the user. This means that users of the system would automatically hear the voice messages played by the Voice System in the same accent that they are likely to be speaking in. The purpose of the invention is to permit more fluid, productive, user friendly and shorter interactions with IVR and other Voice Systems.

Abstract: In a system where transactions are accelerated with asynchronous writes that require acknowledgements, with pre-acknowledging writes at a source of the writes, a destination-side transaction accelerator includes a queue for queue writes to a destination, at least some of the writes being pre-acknowledged by a source-side transaction accelerator prior to the write completing at the destination, a memory for storing a status of a destination-side queue and possibly other determinants, and logic for signaling to the source-side transaction accelerator with instructions to alter pre-acknowledgement rules to hold off on and pursue pre-acknowledgements based on the destination-side queue status. The rules can take into account adjusting the flow of pre-acknowledged requests or pre-acknowledgements at the sender-side transaction accelerator based at least on the computed logical length.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an omni-directional, orthogonally propagating, one-quarter wavelength folded loop antenna. The antenna may be embodied in a wire, flat metal stock or printed configuration. The antenna comprises a folded loop antenna comprising an upper and lower horizontal element with a first and a second end and each of a length that is approximately forty-five percent of the overall one-quarter wavelength of the folded loop antenna connected by a vertical element. The antenna further comprises a ground plane having a minimum vertical length of three-sixteenths of a required wavelength and a horizontal width of a minimum of one-fifth of a wavelength as measured from the physical center of a first end of an antenna feed element. Further aspects of the folded loop antenna system are enabled with polarization diversity and selectable secondary resonance frequency and 10 dB return loss bandwidth.

Abstract: An interactive transportation information system provides schedule information to a caller utilizing a Touch-Tone type telephone. The system includes a database storing a digital code specific to each station, schedule information and a plurality of speech files for generating messages to the caller. Voice messages prompt the caller to press keypad buttons for a departure station, an arrival station, and a desired departure or arrival time. The database is then searched for a transportation vehicle departing the departure station at the time closest to the desired time, whereupon a voice message is generated identifying its departure and arrival times. The system also resolves station name ambiguities and simplifies dialogue for travel to and from the stations.

Abstract: The Privacy Adapter For Venetian Blinds allows for independent operation of an upper portion of said blinds and a lower portion of same. This invention pertains to venetian and mini blinds as are used to provide shade and cover for windows and openings to allow light and access in buildings. Traditional blinds allow for filtering and blocking of light in said openings. This, however, leaves a lot to be desired in terms of allowing a portion of the blinds to be selectively operated and another portion of said blinds to be independently operated.

Abstract: The Gyst Interaction Driven User Interface (Gyst Technology) allows a Human-Computer Interaction System to measure the interaction skill and/or interaction behavior exhibited by a human user via input devices and to adjust the output to the output devices accordingly. The measurement of user performance with the Gyst Technology is a new and improved method over earlier technologies and accounts for the users interaction skill, the amount of time they dwell on particular content, their speed of response generation, accuracy of response generation and other factors, any or all of which can be used to personalize the user experience in real time. The purpose of Gyst Technology is to provide a user experience that is tailored to the skills, preferences, abilities, optimal interaction skill, and other personal attributes of the user and their environment automatically via a machine-learned process. This provides a more cost effective and improved experience for the user.
