  • Patent number: 11574216
    Abstract: A systems implements a gradient descent calculation, regression calculation, or other machine learning calculation on a dataset (e.g., a global dataset) using a coordination node including coordination circuitry that coordinates multiple worker nodes to create a distributed calculation architecture. In some cases, the worker nodes each hold a portion of the dataset and operate on their respective portion. In some cases, the gradient descent calculation, regression calculation, or other machine learning calculation is used to implement a targeted maximum likelihood scheme for causal inference estimation. The targeted maximum likelihood scheme may be used to conduct causal analysis of the observational data.

  • Patent number: 11544491
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for clustering data are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving feature vectors. The actions further include, for a subset of the feature vectors, accessing a first label.

  • Publication number: 20220358336
    Abstract: An Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based data matching and alignment system identifies similar data sources for a target data source from a data corpus and generates a knowledge graph that enables downstream applications seamless access to data in the data corpus. The system extracts column features at different levels for the target data source and a plurality of data sources from the data corpus. Feature matrices are built from the features of the target data source and the plurality of data sources. Candidate data sources similar to the target data source are filtered from the plurality of data sources using the feature matrices. The tree-based similarity is estimated and K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) graphs are built to identify columns from the candidate data sources that are similar to columns of the target data source to build the knowledge graph.

  • Patent number: 11412305
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for facilitating analyzing media items and to filter inappropriate media items before distribution to the users. In one aspect, a method includes partitioning digital media items such as videos into segments and/or scenes, and classifying the segments into predetermined classes such as “Violence”, “Conversation”, “Street”, “Nudity”, “Animation”. After classifications have been assigned, the segments are clustered and/or grouped together before presenting the segments belonging to a particular cluster to a rating entity in a single user interface, for further evaluation. After evaluation, the segments of the media items that were approved by the rating entity are used to identify media items for which all the segments were approved by the rating entity before distributing the media items to the users.

  • Publication number: 20210264306
    Abstract: A device may receive unlabeled data associated with a particular domain and may select sets of data from the unlabeled data. The device may calculate Gaussian kernel densities and minimum distances for data points in each of the sets of data and may calculate anomaly scores for the data points based on the Gaussian kernel densities and the minimum distances for the data points. The device may train a machine learning model, with the anomaly scores for the data points, to generate a trained machine learning model that determines a single anomaly score for the data points, wherein a plurality of single anomaly scores is determined for the sets of data. The device may calculate a final anomaly score for the unlabeled data based on a combination of the plurality of single anomaly scores and may perform one or more actions based on the final anomaly score.

  • Patent number: 11071494
    Abstract: Multi-modal sensing relating to joint acoustic emission and joint bioimpedance. Custom-design analog electronics and electrodes provide high resolution sensing of bioimpedance, microphones and their front-end electronics for capturing sound signals from the joints, rate sensors for identifying joint motions (linear and rotational), and a processor unit for interpretation of the signals. These components are packed into a wearable form factor, which also encapsulates the hardware required to minimize the negative effects of motion artifacts on the signals.

  • Publication number: 20210158901
    Abstract: In some implementations, a prediction system may receive a gene regulatory network associated with genes. The prediction system may determine interactions between the genes associated with the gene regulatory network. The prediction system may generate a hyperbolic embedded space based on the gene regulatory network and the interactions between the genes. The prediction system may determine a hyperbolic distance measure based on the hyperbolic embedded space. The prediction system may process the hyperbolic embedded space and the hyperbolic distance measure, with a neural network model, to generate predictions of interactions between the genes. The prediction system may perform one or more actions based on the predictions of interactions between the genes.
