20140038161 | MULTI-LAYERED COGNITIVE TUTOR - Techniques are described for problem selection algorithms for providing a multi-layered cognitive tutor. A repository of problems is maintained, which associates the problems with the improvement of corresponding skills according to a cognitive model. User skill levels are maintained in a user profile. Problem sets are then presented to the user in phases, where each phase may utilize different selection criteria for selecting from the repository. By varying the selection criteria between phases, for example from problems testing familiar skills to problems testing new skills, or from problems teaching few skills to problems teaching many skills, problems can be selected to address the unique requirements of each tutoring phase, from beginning to middle to end. Additionally, various secondary criteria such as user interests, category and perceptual classes, problem variety, humorous problems, and other criteria may be used to integrate factors outside of the cognitive model, helping to maintain user engagement. | 02-06-2014 |

20090229929 | CANTILEVER BRAKE DEVICE - A cantilever brake device is disclosed having a pair of opposing brake arm assemblies with cable tension or the traction point at the distal end of the body members at the bottom trunk portions rather than at the upper level by the adjustable arm members. By moving the cable tension and traction point to the bottom level of the body members, the brakes are applied more evenly and uniformly against and onto the rim surface for greater braking power and mechanical advantage. The cantilever brake device is also disclosed having a shoe housing member that is easily adjustable on a y-axis for height adjustment of the brake shoe since the brake shoe is each mounted on the shoe housing member and allows uniform adjustment of both the shoe housing members holding the brakes shoes. The shoe housing member is easily rotatable to modify the pitch angle of the brake shoes on a pivotal, horizontal axis to align the brake pads squarely against the rim surface so that the top and bottom portions of the brake pads touch the rim surface equally and uniformly when brakes are applied. Consequently, all the vertical, horizontal, roll angle, pitch angle, and toe-in adjustments are easily achievable for fine tuning the brakes by using the present cantilever brake device. | 09-17-2009 |
