  • Patent number: 12088621
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for automatically retraining a machine learning model based on the performance of this model falling below a performance threshold. In some embodiments, a computer system compares output of a new machine learning model for a new set of examples with known labels for examples in the new set of examples, wherein the new set of examples includes one or more new features. In some embodiments, the computer system determines, based on the comparing, whether a current performance of the new machine learning model satisfies a performance threshold for machine learning models, where the performance threshold is based on output of a benchmark machine learning model. In some embodiments, the computer system automatically triggers, in response to determining that the current performance of the new model does not satisfy the performance threshold, retraining of the new model.

  • Patent number: 12045319
    Abstract: A system for configuring and using a logical neural network including a graph syntax tree of formulae in a represented knowledgebase connected to each other via nodes representing each proposition. One neuron exists for each logical connective occurring in each formula and, additionally, one neuron for each unique proposition occurring in any formula. All neurons return pairs of values representing upper and lower bounds on truth values of their corresponding subformulae and propositions. Neurons corresponding to logical connectives accept as input the output of neurons corresponding to their operands and have activation functions configured to match the connectives' truth functions. Neurons corresponding to propositions accept as input the output of neurons established as proofs of bounds on the propositions' truth values and have activation functions configured to aggregate the tightest such bounds.

  • Patent number: 12033054
    Abstract: Data-dependent node-to-node knowledge sharing to increase the interpretability of the activation pattern of one or more nodes in a neural network, is implemented by a set of knowledge sharing links. Each link may comprise a knowledge providing node or other source P and a knowledge receiving node R. A knowledge sharing link can impose a node-specific regularization on the knowledge receiving node R to help guide the knowledge receiving node R to have an activation pattern that is more easily interpreted. The specification and training of the knowledge sharing links may be controlled by a cooperative human-AI learning supervisor system in which a human and an artificial intelligence system work cooperatively to improve the interpretability and performance of the client system.

  • Patent number: 12026635
    Abstract: Described is a system and method for proactively determining and resolving events having low confidence scores and/or resolving disputed events. For example, when an event, such as a pick of an item from an inventory location within a materials handling facility occurs, the event aspects (e.g., user involved in the event, item involved in the event, action performed) are determined based on information provided from one or more input components (e.g., camera, weight sensor). If each event aspect cannot be determined with a high degree of confidence, the event information is provided to an associate for resolution.
