  • Patent number: 12743640
    Abstract: The acceptance means 81 accepts input of a series of observed events. The deletion means 82 deletes, in a decision graph for determining a boolean value of the observed event based on a knowledge base in which the observed event is a node and transition relationship of each of the observed events is an edge, the edge indicating a transition to a negation side of the observed event from among the edges connected to the node corresponding to the accepted observed event. The determination means 83 determines whether or not a path from a root node to a true-valued leaf node exists in the decision graph after the deletion of the edge. The decision means 84 decides that the series of observed events is inconsistent with respect to the knowledge base when being determined that there is no path to the leaf node indicating the true value.

  • Patent number: 12718075
    Abstract: Methods, systems and media for computer vision using 2D convolution of 4D video data tensors are described. 3D convolution operations performed on 5D input tensors are simulated by performing 2D convolution of 4D tensors instead. A convolution block of a CNN performs two parallel operations: a spatial processing branch performs spatial feature extraction on a 4D tensor using 2D convolution, whereas a temporal processing branch performs temporal feature extraction on a different 4D tensor using 2D convolution. The output tensors of the spatial processing branch and the temporal processing branch are combined to generate an output tensor of the convolution block. The convolution block may include additional operations such as reshaping and/or further convolution operations to generate identically-sized output tensors for each branch, thereby eliminating the need for post-processing of the branches' output tensors prior to combining them.
