Patent number: 11556842Abstract: A cognitive system (artificial intelligence) is optimized by assessing different data augmentation methods used to augment training data, and then training the system using a training set augmented by the best identified method. The augmentation methods are assessed by applying them to the same set of training data to generate different augmented training data sets. Respective instances of the cognitive system are trained with the augmented sets, and each instance is subjected to validation testing to assess its goodness. The validation testing can include multiple validation tests leading to component scores, and a combined validation score is computed as a weighted average of the component scores using respective weights for each validation test. The augmentation method corresponding to the instance having the highest combined validation score is selected as the optimum augmentation method for the particular cognitive system at hand.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2019Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jalal Mahmud, Zhe Liu

Patent number: 11474665Abstract: An approach for using multiple menus with a graphical user interface is disclosed. A multiple menu comprises a menu panel with two or more selection regions, each of which is associated with a base menu. A user requests the menu panel without selecting a menu object displayed on a display unit, such as by right-clicking. The menu panel is displayed along with one base menu, and other base menus are displayed by the user moving the cursor to another selection region. The user selects a menu item from a base menu to cause the application to execute the function associated with the menu item. The selection regions of the menu panel do not include information describing the content of the associated base menus. By arranging the base menus around the menu panel, cursor movement is minimized to improve user efficiency in using the application.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2015Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: AUTODESK, INC.Inventors: Britt S.

Patent number: 11418409Abstract: An architecture-specific web-based executable specification tool maintains specification information and metadata for chip and system on a chip (SoC) design. Metadata available in the development ecosystem may be leveraged to improve the specification-to-design process. A unified, integrated environment for subsystem creation, SoC integration, and SoC specification teams is presented using a tool that comprehends SoC constructs. A modern web-based framework (not stand-alone tool) provides collaboration capabilities and allows visual representation and manipulation of data. Connection fabrics (e.g., network on a chip (NoC)) and other project-specific infrastructure can be configured and synthesized on demand and brought in to the design using the common environment. Netlists and other connectivity data can be fed into automated RTL generation processes directly, or used as a reference for implementation design teams.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2021Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATEDInventors: Todd Christopher Hiers, Chunhua Hu
