  • Patent number: 10977721
    Abstract: Techniques for generating a digital wardrobe are presented herein. A transceiver can be configured to receive a request having a garment identifier and a user identifier. Additionally, an access module can be configured to access a first garment model, access a body model of the user corresponding to the user identifier, and access a second garment model corresponding to the user identifier. Furthermore, a processor can be configured by a garment simulation module to position the body model inside the first garment model and the second garment model, and calculate simulated forces based on the positioning. Moreover, a rendering module can be configured to generate an image of the garment models draped on the body model based on the calculated simulated forces. Subsequently, a display module can be configured to cause presentation of the generated image on a display of a device.

  • Publication number: 20210034335
    Abstract: A code completion tool uses a neural transformer model to generate candidate sequences to complete a line of source code. The neural transformer model is trained using a conditional language modeling objective on a large unsupervised dataset that includes source code programs written in several different programming languages. The neural transformer model is used within a beam search that predicts the most likely candidate sequences for a code snippet under development.

  • Publication number: 20200410390
    Abstract: The behavior of a machine learning model and the training dataset used to train the model are monitored to determine when the accuracy of the model's predictions indicate that the model should be retrained. The retraining is determined from one or more precision metrics and a coverage metric that are generated during operation of the model. A precision metric measures the ability of the model to make predictions that are accepted by an inference system and the coverage metric measures the ability of the model to make predictions given a set of input features. In addition, changes made to the training dataset are analyzed and used as an indication of when the model should be retrained.

  • Publication number: 20200387763
    Abstract: An apparatus and method to adjust item recommendations are disclosed herein. A first image attribute of a query image is compared to a second image attribute of each of a plurality of inventory images of a plurality of inventory items to identify the inventory items similar to the query image. Item recommendations comprising the identified inventory items in a first listing order are provided for display at a remote device. A second listing order of the identified inventory items is determined based on a user preference for a particular one of the identified inventory items. At least the second listing order is provided to the remote device for re-display of the item recommendations in accordance with the second listing order.

  • Publication number: 20200285503
    Abstract: A cloud resource management system trains, through ensemble learning, multiple time series forecasting models to forecast a future idle time of a virtual machine operating on a cloud computing service. The models are trained on historical usage and metric data of the virtual machine. The metric data includes CPU usage, disk usage and network usage. A select one of the models having the best accuracy for a target virtual machine is used in a production run to predict when the virtual machine will be idle. At this time, the virtual machine may be automatically shutdown in order to reduce the expense associated with the continued operation of the virtual machine.
