Patent number: 11983620Abstract: The simplification of neural network models is described. For example, a method for simplifying a neural network model includes providing the neural network model to be simplified, defining a first temporal filter for the conveyance of input from a neuron to an other spatially-extended neuron along the arborized projection, defining a second temporal filter for the conveyance of input from yet another neuron to the spatially-extended neuron along the arborized projection, replacing, in the neural network model, the first, spatially-extended neuron with a first, spatially-constrained neuron and the arborized projection with a first connection extending between the first, spatially-constrained neuron and the second neuron, wherein the first connection filters input from the second neuron in accordance with the first temporal filter and a second connection extending between the first spatially-constrained neuron and the third neuron.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Ecole Polytechnique Federale De Lausanne (EPFL)Inventors: Henry Markram, Wulfram Gerstner, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig, Christian Rössert, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Christian Pozzorini, Idan Segev, James Gonzalo King, Csaba Erö, Willem Wybo

Patent number: 11960616Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to managing virtual data sources (VDSs), including creating and using VDSs. A virtual data source manager (VDSM) that is executing on a computer system may receive a VDS creation request to create a particular VDS. The VDS creation request may include information that is usable to identify a data origin of the particular VDS and an ingestion routine. The VDSM may use the ingestion routine to create the particular VDS that includes a bitmap index that is representative of data stored at the origin. In response to a data request corresponding to the origin, the particular VDS may be used to initiate a query to the particular VDS for data without accessing the origin. The VDSM may further maintain various software plugins that are executable to perform corresponding functions in relation to the VDSM and the VDSs managed by the VDSM.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Molecula Corp.Inventors: Higinio Oliver Maycotte, Matthew Isaac Jaffee, Sarah Kathryn King, Travis Turner

Publication number: 20210230568Abstract: The present invention is directed to the filed of gene therapy. In particular, compositions and methods are disclosed that repair gene microduplication mutations by reversion to a wild type sequence. For example, the creation of a double stranded break by a programmable nuclease protein within a microduplication induces the microhomology mediated end joining DNA repair pathway that in the process of DNA repair removes the microduplication mutation and restores the wild type sequence.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2019Publication date: July 29, 2021Inventors: Scot A. Wolfe, Charles P. Emerson, JR., Sukanya Iyer, Sneha Suresh, Christian Mueller, Jennifer Chen, Dongsheng Guo, Oliver King
