Submodular function optimisation has emerged as a cornerstone of contemporary algorithm design, offering a powerful framework to address a broad range of combinatorial problems characterised by the ...
Addressing the question of what corresponding structure must be disclosed to support a means-plus-function claim element, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a district court ...
If China sells TikTok to a U.S. buyer without its algorithm, users will notice a difference in functionality, experts say.
This paper describes an algorithm for maximising a conditional likelihood function when the corresponding unconditional likelihood function is more easily maximised. The algorithm is similar to the EM ...
Means-plus-function claiming has been disfavored (by and large) since at least 1994 when the Federal Circuit handed down its decision in In re Donaldson, where the Federal Circuit sitting en banc ...
The US Court of Appeals vacated a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) obviousness decision, finding that the disputed means-plus-function term was computer-implemented and therefore required the ...
Trigonometric functions are often used in embedded systems. Motor drivecontrol applications such as the Park Transform, Clarke Transform, andPWMgeneration use trigonometric functions extensively.
