Patent number: 11281962Abstract: In certain embodiments, content items may be obtained, where each of the content items may include multiple data types. Machine learning models may be caused to be trained based on the content items to map data in a vector space by providing at least a first portion of each of the content items as input to at least one of the machine learning models and providing at least a second portion of each of the content items as input to at least another one of the machine learning models. A search request for results may be obtained, where the search request includes search parameters. One or more locations within the vector space may be predicted (e.g., by one or more of the machine learning models) based on the search parameters. Information (indicating content items mapped to or proximate the predicted locations) may be provided as a request response.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2017Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: Clarifai, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Zeiler, David Eigen, Ryan Compton, Christopher Fox

Patent number: 11251832Abstract: Nyquist folding receivers (NYFRs) are disclosed that use three or more non-modulated sampling clock signals with different frequencies to produce multiple projections in a sampled output. Using these three or more different sampling clock signals, multiple Nyquist zones are aliased together while still allowing signals from different Nyquist zones to be separated and identified in later processing based upon the sampling provided by the different sampling clock signals. NYFR sampling receivers are also disclosed that simultaneously produce multiple separate and different parallel channels from an input signal, with each different channel having a different sampling clock sampling rate from the other channels so as to generate a respective folding pattern that is different from the folding pattern generated by the respective RF sampling rate of each of the other simultaneous and parallel channels.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2021Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: L-3 Communications Integrated Systems L.P.Inventors: Gerald L. Fudge, Ryan Lange, Calvin A. Coffey, Frank A. Boyle, Cameron Johnson, Christopher A. Fox
