Recessed Platen Parking Zone For Media Edge Holders In Large‑Format Printing Devices, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

This device relates to a platen configuration for large‑format printers that include removable media edge holders. The device introduces a dedicated parking zone in which a portion of the platen surface is recessed by several millimeters. This defined zone allows edge holders to be positioned below the operational envelope of the carriage when not in use. As a result, mechanical interference and collision risks are significantly reduced.

1 Step Isolation Of Bad Pens Via Probability Algo, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

1 step isolation of bad pens via probability algo is a scalable solution to isolate bad pen for printers that share a common Vpp power to 2 or more pens via a simple firmware(FW) upgrade or FW upgrade with additional 2 simple passive component(s).

Low cost printers uses common Vpp(32V power to the pen) and Vdd(5-5.5V) for both pens, with no additional switch to isolate power to K(Black) and CMY(Cyan Magenta Yellow) pen

Thus when Vpp(32V) or Vdd short happens, ink short test is unable to isolate which pen is shorted, the printer needs to reject both pens.

Interaction-Aware Mixed-Precision Quantization Profiling For Neural Networks, Sergiu Calmic, Joseph Demian

Defensive Publications Series

Large artificial intelligence (AI) models consume substantial memory. Although reducing the numerical precision of model weights through quantization can help, choosing the appropriate precision for each layer is an exponentially complex problem complicated by unpredictable interactions between layers. Proposed herein is a profiling framework that explicitly measures cross-layer interactions and uses a multi-stage search pipeline to reduce trillions of candidate configurations to a few hundred targeted evaluations. Built-in safety margins and repair mechanisms help ensure that the final quantization plan meets a user-specified quality threshold. Experiments across multiple architectures demonstrated memory savings of 29-75% while maintaining strict quality limits and …

Efficient Spectrum Recovery Via Psd-Aware Power Re-Concentration, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

This proposal introduces a fundamentally different way to utilize spectrum under interference conditions by leveraging power redistribution instead of spectrum avoidance. Rather than searching for interference-free tones, the design reduces the number of active tones within a given bandwidth, thereby increasing the power allocated to each tone under fixed PSD constraints. This effectively boosts per-tone SNR, enabling successful transmission even when the entire band appears to be below the noise threshold.

By transforming unusable bandwidth into recoverable SNR margin, this approach challenges the traditional assumption that interference-affected spectrum must be discarded. It operates fully within regulatory PSD limits while extracting …

Environment-Adaptive And Collision-Minimized Bluetooth Channel Allocation In High-Interference Multi-Device Scenarios, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

In environments with high wireless interference, such as office spaces with multiple laptops and overlapping Wi-Fi signals, Bluetooth communication often suffers from frequency collisions and degraded performance. The standard Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) mechanism employed by individual Bluetooth devices is decentralized, requiring each device to perform its own interference scanning and channel adaptation. This results in duplicated overhead and limited visibility of global channel usage, leading to inefficient spectrum utilization and inter-device Bluetooth channel collisions. This invention provides a centralized system and method for managing Bluetooth channel allocation across multiple devices. The most suitable central host PC collects environmental interference …

System And Method For On-Demand Generation Of Physics-Grounded, Verification-Gated, Competency-Driven Multi-Modal Technical-Training Content, Michael R. Glass

Defensive Publications Series

A system generates interactive technical-training artifacts — including circuit/equipment simulations, technical diagrams, "see-inside" equivalent-circuit views, injected fault scenarios, and step-by-step or narrated explanations — on demand and adapted to a learner's competency state. Unlike systems that script simulation behavior or that emit generative-model output without a correctness guarantee, the disclosed system computes artifact behavior from a numerical physics solver so behavior emerges from the solve, and passes every generated artifact through a verification gate that checks it against that same solved ground-truth model and rejects or regenerates any artifact inconsistent with the model before it is delivered. A …

Focused Retention: Goal-Conditioned Switched Decay As An Active Anti-Decay Force In Agent Memory (Loci), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

Memory systems decay passively: strength falls with time, lifted only by rehearsal. We propose a memory spectrum in which decay is goal-conditioned: while a commitment is open, the item decays with a very long half-life (it holds, though it is not frozen); the moment the commitment resolves, decay switches to fast and the trace collapses. Focus, on this account, is not slower forgetting but a regime switch controlled by the fate of a goal. The model contributes: (1) a switched-decay retention law; (2) a release taxonomy — fulfilled, re-clamped, relinquished, nullified, abandoned — in which rejection is a choice node, …

A Separate, Fast-Decaying Memory Spectrum For A System's Own Thoughts, With Reflection-Gated Crystallization (Loci), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

Memory systems for interactive agents store observations — facts about the world and the user. We argue the system's own reasoning traces ("thoughts") require a structurally different store: a separate spectrum with its own much faster decay law, and a gated bridge to long-term memory that only a confirmed outcome can open. A thought's retention follows an exponential decay with a roughly 4-hour half-life; cold thoughts are pruned. A thought is crystallized into a durable fact only when a later, externally-produced outcome confirms it — unconfirmed reasoning is never allowed to become long-term "truth," which makes the gate an anti-hallucination …

Reflection-On-Action: Label-Free Learning From Behavioral Outcomes In Interactive Agents (Loci E+R), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

Most systems that adapt to a user learn from labels: explicit ratings, reward signals, or annotated targets. We describe and evaluate a mechanism that learns from behavior alone, with no labels of any kind. The system acts, observes what the user does next, and updates its model in proportion to how surprising that behavior was — treating the user's own subsequent behavior as the only training signal. We call this reflection-on-action (e+r): act, then learn from the behavioral outcome. We formalize the label-free update (behavioral surprise as the sole learning signal, with the target always the externally produced behavior so …

Forecasting Affective State From Interaction Streams: A Closed Loop With Heat-Decay Memory, Label-Free Mood Estimation, And Trajectory-Based Crisis/Venting Separation (Loci R+E), Arko Sanyal

Defensive Publications Series

We ask whether a person's near-future affective state can be forecast from the interaction stream alone — no self-report, no labeled emotions. We describe a closed forecasting loop that converts an interaction stream into a bounded affect estimate and projects it forward. The loop decomposes interaction into parallel streams: a heat-decay salience stream (recurrence-weighted, exponentially decaying), an exact-value stream, a mood stream derived from reconstruction error against the person's own adaptive percentile band (arousal, valence, coherence — no labeled emotions), a reflection stream, and a forecast stream. On a held-out 24-hour criterion the loop reaches 74% mood-forecast accuracy versus 48% …

Generating Device-Agnostic Beating Haptic Effects, Shan Xu, Philip Quinn, Hong Z. Tan

This disclosure describes techniques that enable a computing device (e.g., a smartphone, tablet, wearable device, game controller, etc.) to generate device-agnostic beating haptic effects (e.g., low-frequency vibrations, breathing sensations, fluttery feedback, engine textures, etc.) using a piecewise linear envelope (PWLE) representation. The computing device may receive one or more beating parameters (e.g., beating frequency, carrier frequency, sharpness, amplitude scaling envelope, etc.) and calculate a high-resolution composite beating waveform envelope. To achieve compatibility across diverse actuator hardware (e.g., linear resonant actuators (LRAs), voice coil actuators, etc.), the computing device may simplify the high-resolution composite amplitude envelope into a PWLE representation using …

Technical Disclosure Specification: Eliminating Late-Time Logarithmic Thermal Drawdown In Closed-Loop Geothermal Wells Via Soliton-Induced Boundary Layer Disruption, Christopher L. Eckes

Defensive Publications Series

This specification formalizes an advanced multi-physics engineering framework to eliminate late-time logarithmic thermal drawdown, localized stagnant fluid insulation, and long-term thermodynamic extraction decay in deep, closed-loop geothermal wells. Traditional geothermal energy extraction architectures encounter a severe physical limitation over extended operational runtimes: the continuous circulation of working fluid rapidly cools the immediate borehole rock face, establishing a stagnant thermal boundary layer that isolates the fluid from the core geological heat source and collapses extraction efficiency.

This framework resolves this bottleneck by treating the borehole rock-fluid interface as an active 2D viscoelastic fluid transport membrane operating at a strict coordinate baseline …

Technical Disclosure Specification: Phononic Isolation And Shield Chassis Mechanical Isolation Framework For Asla Quantum Processors, Christopher L. Eckes

Defensive Publications Series

A standalone, non-perturbative engineering specification is formalized to suppress substrate-mediated phononic cross-talk, acoustic resonance noise, and sub-level phase decoherence in large-scale Quantum Processing Units (QPUs). Traditional solid-state quantum processing architectures suffer from rapid microscopic state degradation and context decay due to ambient thermal phonons disrupting fragile qubit coherence profiles across rigid crystal lattices. This framework completely bypasses traditional cryogenic dilution refrigeration bounds by projecting multi-layered physical material constraints directly onto a 2D viscoelastic fluid substrate canvas operating at absolute equilibrium (z=0). The technical apparatus utilizes a high-performance Acoustic Meta-Material Damping Chassis composed of a 2.0 mm Titanium-Graphene macro-isolation shield mechanically …
