  • Patent number: 11276179
    Abstract: Techniques for determining predictions on a top-down representation of an environment based on object movement are discussed herein. Sensors of a first vehicle (such as an autonomous vehicle) may capture sensor data of an environment, which may include object(s) separate from the first vehicle (e.g., a vehicle, a pedestrian, a bicycle). A multi-channel image representing a top-down view of the object(s) and the environment may be generated based in part on the sensor data. Environmental data (object extents, velocities, lane positions, crosswalks, etc.) may also be encoded in the image. Multiple images may be generated representing the environment over time and input into a prediction system configured to output a trajectory template (e.g., general intent for future movement) and a predicted trajectory (e.g., more accurate predicted movement) associated with each object. The prediction system may include a machine learned model configured to output the trajectory template(s) and the predicted trajector(ies).

  • Patent number: 11275969
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method inputs a set of images into a network and trains the network based on a classification of the set of images to one or more characters in a set of characters. The method obtains a set of encodings for the one or more characters based on a layer of the network that restricts the output of the layer to a number of values. Then, the method stores the set of encodings for the one or more characters, wherein an encoding in the set of encodings is retrievable when a corresponding character is determined.

  • Patent number: 11258924
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for aligning a set of images which have shared structural characteristics, such as images of an official document. The method comprises acquiring image data comprising a set of images and applying, using a first deep neural network, at least one image transform to the image data to form aligned image data in which each image of the set of images is substantially aligned with a template image. Then, the aligned image data is compressed and the image data reconstructed from the compressed image data, and a set of aligned images is output from the reconstructed image data. The set of aligned images may be annotated for automated official document authentication.

  • Patent number: 11257594
    Abstract: A system and method for biomarker-outcome prediction and medical literature exploration which utilizes a data platform to analyze, optimize, and explore the knowledge contained in or derived from clinical trials. The system utilizes a knowledge graph and data analysis engine capabilities of the data platform. The knowledge graph may be used to link biomarkers with molecules, proteins, and genetic data to provide insight into the relationship between biomarkers, outcomes, and adverse events. The system uses natural language processing techniques on a large corpus of medical literature to perform advanced text mining to identify biomarkers associated with adverse events and to curate a comprehensive profile of biomarker-outcome associations. These associations may then be ranked to identify the most-common biomarker-outcome association pairs.

  • Patent number: 11256995
    Abstract: A system and method that predicts whether a given protein-ligand pair is active or inactive, the ground-truth protein-ligand complex crystalline-structure similarity, and an associated bioactivity value. The system and method further produce 3-D visualizations of previously unknown protein-ligand pairs that show directly the importance assigned to protein-ligand interactions, the positive/negative-ness of the saliencies, and magnitude. Furthermore, the system and method make enhancements in the art by accurately predicting protein-ligand pair bioactivity from decoupled models, removing the need for docking simulations, as well as restricting attention of the machine learning between protein and ligand atoms only.

  • Patent number: 11256994
    Abstract: A system and method that predicts whether a given protein-ligand pair is active or inactive and outputs a pose score classifying the propriety of the pose. A 3D bioactivity platform comprising a 3D bioactivity module and data platform scrapes empirical lab-based data that a docking simulator uses to generate a dataset from which a 3D-CNN model is trained. The model then may receive new protein-ligand pairs and determine a classification for the bioactivity and pose propriety of that protein-ligand pair. Furthermore, gradients relating to the binding affinity in the 3D model of the molecule may be used to generate profiles from which new protein targets may be determined.

  • Patent number: 11227179
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, system and computer readable medium for video tracking. An exemplar crop is selected to be tracked in an initial frame of a video. Bayesian optimization is applied with each subsequent frame of the video by building a surrogate model of an objective function using Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) based on similarity scores of candidate crops collected from a search space in a current frame of the video. A next candidate crop in the search space is determined using an acquisition function. The next candidate crop is compared to the exemplar crop using a Siamese neural network. Comparisons of new candidate crops to the exemplar crop are made using the Siamese neural network until the exemplar crop has been found in the current frame. The new candidate crops are selected based on an updated surrogate model.

  • Patent number: 11227183
    Abstract: A data extraction and expansion system receives documents with data to be processed, extracts a set of a specific type of entities from the received documents, expands the set of entities by retrieving additional entities of the specific type from an ontology and other external data sources to improve the match between the received documents. The ontology includes data regarding entities and relationships between entities. The ontology is built by extracting the entity and relationship information from external data sources and can be constantly updated. If the additional entities to expand the set of entities cannot be retrieved from the ontology then a real-time search of the external data sources is executed to retrieve the additional entities from the external data sources.

  • Patent number: 11227187
    Abstract: Artificial intelligence systems are created for end users based on raw data received from the end users or obtained from any source. Training, validation and testing data is maintained securely and subject to authentication prior to use. A machine learning model is selected for providing solutions of any type or form and trained, verified and tested by an artificial intelligence engine using such data. A trained model is distributed to end users, and feedback regarding the performance of the trained model is returned to the artificial intelligence engine, which updates the model on account of such feedback before redistributing the model to the end users. When an end user provides data to an artificial intelligence engine and requests a trained model, the end user monitors progress of the training of the model, along with the performance of the model in providing quality artificial intelligence solutions, via one or more dashboards.

  • Patent number: 11222247
    Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques for sematic image retrieval. According to one technique, digital images are classified into N number of categories based on their visual content. The classification provides a set of N-dimensional image vectors for the digital images. Each image vector contains up to N number of probability values for up to N number of corresponding categories. An N-dimensional image match vector is generated that projects an input keyword query into the vector space of the set of image vectors by computing the vector similarities between a word vector for the input query and a word vector for each of the N number of categories. Vector similarities between the image match vectors and the set of image vectors can be computed to determine images semantically relevant to the input query.
