`
`on cross-appeal include, but are not limited to:
`
`1. Whether the Board erred in determining that Petitioner demonstrated
`
`by a preponderance of the evidence that claims 9, 11-13, 15, 16,23, and 24 of the
`
`subject patent, U.S. Patent No. 8,205,237 ("the '237 Patent"), are unpatentable as

`1 02( e);
`
`2. Whether the Board erred in determining that Petitioner demonstrated
`
`by a preponderance of the evidence that claims 9-11, 13-15,23, and 24 of the '237
`
`Patent are unpatentable as being anticipated by U.S. Patent No. 5,874,686
`
`("Ghias") under 35 U.S.C. § 1 02(b);

`
`claimed "approximate nearest neighbor search" in the context of the '237 Patent;
`
`5. Whether the Board erred in finding that Ghias discloses the claimed
`
`"approximate nearest neighbor search" in the context of the '237 Patent; and
`
`6.
`
`Any other issues decided adversely to Patent Owner in any orders,
`
`decisions, determinations, rulings, or opinions issued in this proceeding.
