Michael Brandon Lane
Michael Brandon Lane is a chemical engineer and chemist (B.S. Chemical Engineering, Virginia Tech; M.S. Chemistry, UNC Greensboro). At Celgard he developed a coated lithium-ion battery separator and scaled it to high-volume manufacturing, and he is a named inventor on multiple Celgard patents covering coated battery separators.
He leads the Lane Vector research program, which studies signal direction, temporal change, source dependence, and semantic interpretation, and he built TruVector, the InTellMe AI product that puts the science to work.
What the work draws on
The program is led by one researcher, with collaborators engaged study by study. The papers use these fields, and nothing beyond them:
- Dependence among sources: the cluster-sampling design effect and intraclass correlation
- Finite differences and the propagation of measurement noise
- Evaluating text embeddings: what the angle between two texts does and does not carry
- Confidence calibration of model readings
- Controlled comparison and held-out evaluation
