Abstract:
A system and method are used to accelerate settling or steady state of an amplifier in an amplifier system. This is used to ensure the amplifier reaches steady-state within a specified time period from stand-by or another state without using more current than is needed for steady-state. A comparator in a common-mode feedback system compares a desired amplifier output signal to one or more nodes of the amplifier. A result of the comparison is compared to a threshold value using a comparator in a settling acceleration system. If the result crosses the threshold, a controller turns on a driver in the settling acceleration system. The driver pulls on one or more nodes of the amplifier, which, along with a driver in the amplifier system pulling on the node, quickly brings the amplifier to settling or steady state.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system and method for data extraction and management in multi-relational ontology creation. The system of the invention includes selecting a corpus of documents containing information relevant to a targeted knowledge domain, extracting assertions and their constituent concepts and relationships from the corpus, and storing the assertions, wherein the extraction processes may rules and utilize natural language processing.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system and method for knowledge capture using multi-relational ontologies. The system may enable an ontology service provider to ascertain the scope of an entity's knowledge capture needs, create one or more base ontologies from publicly available sources, and incorporate the entity's private data into one or more value-added custom ontologies.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a computer-implemented system and method for creating, editing, and utilizing one or more rules for multi-relational ontology creation and maintenance. The system may enable the creation and testing of various rules against a known “test-corpus.” The system may then utilize these various rules to extract and curate assertions into one or more multi-relational ontologies.
Abstract:
The invention relates generally to a system and method for creating custom multi-relational ontologies. The invention includes a system and method for creating a master ontology and the application of one or more customizing constraints to the master ontology. Also provided are methods for creating custom ontologies using path-finding and creation of custom ontologies by applying customizing constraints to extraction, assembly, curation, and publication processes.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system and method for the enrichment and curation of concept, relationship, and assertion information into a multi-relational ontology. The invention includes a system enabling a curator, or other person, to verify the validity of assertions created by predetermined rules. The curator may also manually edit, delete, or add assertions to an ontology.
