Publication number: 20230281298Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product to defend learning models that are vulnerable to adversarial example attack. It is assumed that data (a “dataset”) is available in multiple modalities (e.g., text and images, audio and images in video, etc.). The defense approach herein is premised on the recognition that the correlations between the different modalities for the same entity can be exploited to defend against such attacks, as it is not realistic for an adversary to attack multiple modalities. To this end, according to this technique, adversarial samples are identified and rejected if the features from one (the attacked) modality are determined to be sufficiently far away from those of another un-attacked modality for the same entity. In other words, the approach herein leverages the consistency between multiple modalities in the data to defend against adversarial attacks on one modality.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Ian Michael Molloy, Youngja Park, Taesung Lee, Wenjie Wang

Publication number: 20230229586Abstract: By analyzing a test case in a set of test cases, the test case is classified into a test type. Using a result of analyzing a test execution environment, a flake parameter is set, the flake parameter comprising an execution environment characteristic capable of causing an inconclusive result of execution of the test case. Responsive to determining that the test type maps to the flake parameter, the test case is removed from the set of test cases, the removing resulting in a filtered set of test cases, the determining performed using a predefined set of mappings. The filtered set of test cases is executed in the test execution environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2022Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Gireesh Punathil

Publication number: 20230229982Abstract: From a first set of natural language documents describing a demand for a movable physical item, a set of demand features is extracted. From a second set of natural language documents describing a supply of the movable physical item, a set of supply features is extracted. A correlation quantifying a relationship between the set of demand features and the set of supply features is computed. Using the correlation and the correlation trend, an attraction between the set of demand features and the set of supply features is modeled as a gravitational force. Using a routing determined according to the attraction, the movable physical item is caused to be transported.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2022Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Aaron K.

Publication number: 20230229707Abstract: An embodiment includes analyzing a first digital image using a first trained neural network that classifies the first image as having a first context based on a plurality of characteristics of the first image. The embodiment generates a data structure that associates first and second elements depicted in the first image based on an affinity detected between the first and second elements in the first context. The embodiment executes a querying process that searches for information requested by a user, and detects that a search result from the querying process conveys a second context that is different from the first context. The embodiment identifies a third element in the data structure having an affinity with the first element in the second context. The embodiment renders a machine-generated image that is generated using a second trained neural network and depicts the first element and the third element in the second context.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2022Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Hernan A.

Publication number: 20230222150Abstract: An embodiment includes executing a querying process that returns database documents containing text associated with a database environment. The embodiment tokenizes the database documents into a series of n-gram tokens and groups the tokens into topic classes using natural language processing (NLP). The embodiment also generates a feature map by applying a convolution layer to an image that depicts a database structure graph of the database environment. The embodiment detects an architectural element in the image by applying a region proposal network (RPN) to the feature map and classifies the architectural element into one of the plurality of topic classes using a trained neural network. The embodiment renders, responsive to a user selection of the architectural element, an overlay depicting information about the architectural element using text and other architectural elements that are in a same topic class as the user-selected architectural element.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2022Publication date: July 13, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Sheng Yan Sun, Shuo Li, Xiaobo Wang, Hong Mei Zhang

Publication number: 20230221992Abstract: An embodiment includes tokenizing a code segment generated by an integrated development environment responsive to user input, the tokenizing resulting in a tokenized code segment. The embodiment generates a search query by analyzing the tokenized code segment using a trained neural network. The embodiment executes a querying process that searches a knowledge base using the search query for a hardware requirement associated with the code segment, and detects a search result that conveys the hardware requirement as including a specialized hardware resource. The embodiment generates a time allotment associated with execution of the code segment using a second trained neural network that predicts the time allotment based on the tokenized code segment. The embodiment issues an instruction associated with the code segment to a hardware scheduler causing the hardware scheduler to allocate the specialized hardware resource for an amount of time corresponding to the time allotment.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2022Publication date: July 13, 2023Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Clement Decrop, Abhishek Malvankar, John M.
