  • Patent number: 11093557
    Abstract: A system to extract relevant keywords or business tags that describe a company's business is provided. The keyword extraction system utilizes a smart crawler to identify and crawl product pages from a company's website. These pages serve to provide textual descriptions of product offerings, solutions, or services that make up the company's business. The keyword extraction system combines these web documents with other textual descriptions of companies, e.g. from third party data vendors or other public data sources and company databases, to form a corpus of documents that describe companies. The corpus of documents and keywords are processed to segment the plurality of companies into subsets by applying a clustering technique and to provide visualization of the clusters with business tags.

  • Patent number: 11030074
    Abstract: A method and associated computer system. A first machine executes machine code in a debugging session on the first machine. The machine code had been previously received by the first machine from a second machine. The machine code includes machine executable instructions. The machine code was generated from compilation of source code developed and compiled on the second machine. In response to a change in the machine code having detected by the first machine in the debugging session on the first machine, the first machine determines a portion of the source code associated with the change in the machine code based on a profile. The profile indicates a mapping between the source code and the machine code. The first machine, while communicating with the second machine, causes the portion of the source code to be updated on the second machine based on the change in the machine code.

  • Publication number: 20210167870
    Abstract: Provided are a method, apparatus and system for measuring total radiated power of an array antenna. The method includes: determining a Rayleigh resolution of the array antenna in an angle space, and setting a stepping grid spacing of sampling points according to the Rayleigh resolution; determining the sampling points according to the stepping grid spacing, measuring equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) at positions of the sampling points, and determining the TRP according to the EIRP. Compared with a traditional test mode using an angle stepping grid ?grid and ?grid of 15°, this reduces measurement errors; and additionally, through a normalized wave vector space transformation, the number of sampling points is further reduced, and the measurement efficiency is improved.

  • Publication number: 20200143241
    Abstract: An automated predictive analytics system disclosed herein provides a novel technique for industry classification. Leveraging specific API to construct a database of companies labeled with the industries to which they belong, the automated predictive analytics system trains a deep neural network to predict the industries of novel companies. The automated predictive analytics system examines the capacity of the model to predict six-digit NAICS codes, as well as the ability of the model architecture to adapt to other industry segmentation schemas. Additionally, the automated predictive analytics system investigates the ability of the model to generalize despite the presence of noise in the labels in the training set. Finally, the automated predictive analytics system explores the possibility of increasing predictive precision by thresholding based on the confidence scores that the model outputs along with its predictions.

  • Publication number: 20200104589
    Abstract: Some implementations of the disclosure involve, at a device having one or more processors, one or more image sensors, and an illumination source, detecting a first attribute of an eye based on pixel differences associated with different wavelengths of light in a first image of the eye. These implementations next determine a first location associated with the first attribute in a three dimensional (3D) coordinate system based on depth information from a depth sensor. Various implementations detect a second attribute of the eye based on a glint resulting from light of the illumination source reflecting off a cornea of the eye. These implementations next determine a second location associated with the second attribute in the 3D coordinate system based on the depth information from the depth sensor, and determine a gaze direction in the 3D coordinate system based on the first location and the second location.
