  • Publication number: 20240111473
    Abstract: A distributed display method provides different parts of an application interface that are collaboratively displayed on a plurality of terminals, so that manners for collaborative display between the plurality of terminals are more flexible and richer. A first terminal displays a first interface including a first part and a second part. When the first terminal detects that a preset condition is met, the first terminal displays a second interface, where the second interface includes the first part and does not include the second part; and the first terminal notifies a second terminal to display a third interface, where the third interface includes the second part and does not include the first part.

  • Publication number: 20240104338
    Abstract: A method comprising: sampling a temporal causal graph from a temporal graph distribution specifying probabilities of directed causal edges between different variables of a feature vector at a present time step, and from one variable at a preceding time step to another variables at the present time step. Based on this there are identified: a present parent which is a cause of the selected variable in the present time step, and a preceding parent which is a cause of the selected variable from the preceding time step. The method then comprises: inputting a value of each identified present and preceding parent into a respective encoder, resulting in a respective embedding of each of the present and preceding parents; combining the embeddings of the present and preceding parents, resulting in a combined embedding; inputting the combined embedding into a decoder, resulting in a reconstructed value of the selected variable.

  • Publication number: 20240104370
    Abstract: A method comprising: sampling a first causal graph from a first graph distribution modelling causation between variables in a feature vector, and sampling a second causal graph from a second graph distribution modelling presence of possible confounders, a confounder being an unobserved cause of both of two variables. The method further comprises: identifying a parent variable which is a cause of a selected variable according to the first causal graph, and which together with the selected variable forms a confounded pair having a respective confounder being a cause of both according to the second causal graph. A machine learning model encodes the parent to give a first embedding, and encodes information on the confounded pair give a second embedding. The embeddings are combined and then decoded to give a reconstructed value. This mechanism may be used in training the model or in treatment effect estimation.
