What is a Patent for Machine learning templates within the framework for machine learning
Search Patent for Machine learning templates within the framework for machine learning
Maintenance of various machines like and not only, engines, turbines, aircraft and rail vehicles is essential for the longevity of the machines. The early detection and identification of problems, or potential problems, associated with themachines can help prevent losing use of machines as well as prevent secondary damage. A good example is that components of a machine may get damaged as time passes. Failure to fix or determine the cause of these issues could cause the machine to cease use.
If a user isn’t aware of the techniques used to alter sensors to identify anomalies may have a difficult time recognizing the signs. It would therefore be desirable to provide a systemto aid users in their ability to identify problems or possible problems discovered in raw sensor data, as well as an easy way to get useful information from the raw sensor data associated with a machine.
Some embodiments offer the system and method of creating a template that is associated with a data driven solution to an industry problem. This could involve anomaly detection, fault discovery or any other similarity to data driven approximations. Themethod could involve using the one or more kernels of a machine learning library. The one or more kernels are then merged through a wrapper code and transformed into the form of a template. The template may be integrated into an interface for users so that it could be executed or utilized in an application or a script. A technical advantage of some embodiments disclosed herein is improved systems and methods for providing functionality to users to assemble kernels into pipelines/workflows to solve specific problems or issues related to a machine.

What is a patent?
Patents are granted by the government to safeguard an invention. The patent grants the inventor the sole right to create, use and market the invention. Society is benefited when new technologies are brought to market. The benefits can be in directly, in that it can allow individuals to achieve previously impossible things. Or indirectly due to the opportunities for economic growth (business expansion and job creation) that innovation provides.
Patent protection is sought out by many university researchers and drug companies for research and development. Patents can be granted to the physical or abstract nature of a product or process or an approach or composition of materials new to the area. To be granted patent protection the invention must be novel, useful and not be obvious to anyone else within the same area.
Patents reward inventors who have commercially viable inventions. They are an incentive to inventors to invent. Small businesses and inventors are certain that they will receive a return on the investment they make in technology development via patents. This means they will be able to earn money from their work.
Patents play essential roles in firms and can be used to:
Secure innovative products and services;
Increase the value, appearance, and visibility of your products market;
Stand out and differentiate yourself and your product from the rest.
Access to business and technical knowledge and data;
Beware of accidentally using content from third parties or risk losing valuable information as well as creative outputs and other outputs.
Patents transform inventors’ information into a tradeable asset which opens new opportunities for job creation and expansion of businesses through joint ventures or licensing.
Investors involved in the development and commercialization of technology will appreciate small companies with patent protection appealing.
Patenting can generate new ideas and new inventions. This information can encourage innovation and may qualify to be protected by patents.
Patents can serve as a deterrent to untrustworthy third parties who profit from the invention’s success.
Patent-protected technology revenues that are commercially viable can be used to finance technology-related research and development (R&D), which can increase the chance of a better technology in the near future.
Intellectual property ownership can be used to convince investors and lenders that there are real opportunities to market your product. One powerful patent may open the door for numerous financing options. Patents and other IP assets can be used as collateral or security for debt financing. You may also present investors with the patents you own to increase the value of your business. Forbes and other publications have stated that each patent could increase the value of a company by anything from $500,000 to $1 million.
Startups require a carefully-crafted business plan that is built on the IP to prove that your product or service is unique and superior or ingenuous. Investors will also be impressed if your IP rights are secured or are on the verge of being secured, and that they agree with your business strategy.
It is essential to keep an invention secret until you file to protect it with patents. Making an invention public before it is filed can frequently degrade its originality and make it ineligible for patent protection. Thus, disclosures that are filed prior to filing (e.g. for testing-marketing investors, test-marketing, or any other business partners) should only be filed after signing a confidentiality agreement.
There are several types of patents and knowing the different types is crucial to protect your invention. Patents for utility cover techniques and machines. Design patents cover ornamental designs. Utility patents are the most beneficial since they protect the owner from copycats and other competition. Most often the utility patents are granted to modify or improve existing inventions. They can also be used to enhance or alter existing inventions. A process patent will cover the acts or methods of performing a specific act. However, a chemical composition would include the combination of ingredients.
How long will a patent last? While utility patents last for 20 years from the date of their initial filing, they can be extended by delays in the patent office.

Patent-pending refers to the product that has been protected by the patent application. You can search for the public pair in order to find the patent application. When the patent office is satisfied with your application, you’ll be able to do a patent number look to find the patent that was issued. Your product is now patent-able. It is also possible to use the USPTO search engine. Check out the following article for more information. Patent lawyers or a patent attorney can help you through the procedure. In the US Patents are granted through the US patent and trademark office as well as the United States patent and trademark office, which is also responsible for examining trademark applications.
Interested in finding more similar patents? Here are the steps to follow:
1. Think of terms that describe your invention, based on its purpose and composition or use.
Write down a short, but precise description of the invention. Do not use generic terms like “device”, “process”, and “system”. Instead, think about synonyms for the terms you selected initially. Then, note important technical terms as well as key words.
To help you recognize keywords and concepts, use the following questions.
- What’s the goal of this invention? Is it a utilitarian device or an ornamental design?
- Is the invention a way of creating something or performing some function? Is it a product or process?
- What is the structure of the invention? What is the physical composition of the invention?
- What is the goal of the invention?
- What are technical terms and keywords that describe the characteristics of an invention? A technical dictionary will help you find the appropriate words.
2. These terms will allow you to look up pertinent Cooperative Patent Classifications on the Classification Search Tool. To determine the best classification to your invention, scan the classification’s class Schemes (class schedules). Consider substituting the words you’re using to describe your invention if you don’t receive any results from your Classification Text Search with synonyms similar to the words you used in the first step.
3. Check 3. Check the CPC Classification Definition for confirmation of the CPC classification you’ve found. The hyperlink to a CPC classification definition will be available in the event that the title of the chosen classification contains a blue box with “D” on its left. CPC classification definitions will help determine the relevant classification’s scope, so you are sure to choose the most relevant. These definitions may also include some search tips or other recommendations that can be useful for further investigation.
4. The Patents Full-Text Database and the Image Database allow you to retrieve patent documents that include the CPC classification. You can search and find the relevant patent publications looking first at abstract and representative drawings.
5. This list of patent publications is the best to look at for any connections to your invention. Pay close attention to the specifications and claims. Consult the applicant and patent examiner for additional patents.
6. Retrieve published patent applications with the CPC classification you selected in Step 3 in the Applications Full-Text and Image Database. You can use the same search strategy as in Step 4. You can narrow your results to the most relevant patent applications by looking at the abstract and illustrations on every page. After that, take a close look at the patent applications published, paying particular attention to the claims and additional drawings.
7. You can search for other US patent publications using keyword searching in AppFT or PatFT databases, and also classification searching of patents that are not issued by the United States as described below. You can also use web search engines to search non-patent documents that describe inventions in the literature. For instance:
- Add keywords to your search. Keyword searches may turn up documents that are not well-categorized or have missed classifications during Step 2. For example, US patent examiners often supplement their classification searches with keyword searches. Think about the use of technical engineering terminology rather than everyday words.
- Search for foreign patents using the CPC classification. Then, re-run the search using international patent office search engines such as Espacenet, the European Patent Office’s worldwide patent publication database of over 130 million patent publications. Other national databases include:
- European Patent Office (EPO) provides esp@cenet to access a network of Europe’s patent databases with access to machine translation of European patents.
- Japan Patent Office (JPO) – with access to machine translations of Japanese patents.
- World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) offers PATENTSCOPE with a full-text search of published international patent applications and machine translations for some documents, as well as a list of international patent databases.
- Korean Intellectual Property Rights Information Service (KIPRIS)
- State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) with machine translation of Chinese patents.
- Other International Intellectual Property Offices with online patent databases include Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, India, Israel, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and Taiwan.
- Search non-patent literature. Inventions can be made public in many non-patent publications. It is recommended that you search journals, books, websites, technical catalogs, conference proceedings, and other print and electronic publications.
To review your search, you can hire a registered patent attorney to assist. A preliminary search will help one better prepare to talk about their invention and other related inventions with a professional patent attorney. In addition, the attorney will not spend too much time or money on patenting basics.
