  • Patent number: 11605013
    Abstract: Decentralized machine learning to build models is performed at nodes where local training datasets are generated. A blockchain platform may be used to coordinate decentralized machine learning over a series of iterations. For each iteration, a distributed ledger may be used to coordinate the nodes. Rules in the form of smart contracts may enforce node participation in an iteration of model building and parameter sharing, as well as provide logic for electing a node that serves as a master node for the iteration. The master node obtains model parameters from the nodes and generates final parameters based on the obtained parameters. The master node may write its state to the distributed ledger indicating that the final parameters are available. Each node, via its copy of the distributed ledger, may discover the master node's state and obtain and apply the final parameters to its local model, thereby learning from other nodes.

  • Patent number: 11586838
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for end-to-end fuzzy entity matching are described herein. A first input and a second input may be received. The first input and the second input may be evaluated to identify common attribute types. A set of attribute entity matching models may be selected that correspond to the attribute types. The first input and the second input may be evaluated using the set of attribute entity matching models to determine a set of weighted scores for attribute pairs in the first input and the second input. The set of weighted scores may be evaluated using a table-level entity matching model to identify a common entity included in the first input and the second input. A linking dataset may be generated that includes a cross-linking facility indicating a relationship between a first entity descriptor in the first input and a second entity descriptor in the second input.
