  • Patent number: 12783897
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems of training neural networks for predictive tasks are disclosed. The method includes training a neural network within a closed-loop framework, where the focus is on predicting target tasks for an object. The method identifies situations and inputs (i.e., augmentations) that lead to higher errors in the neural network's predictions by calculating a loss value between predicted target tasks and known target tasks during a baseline training period. An optimizer uses the loss value to predict correlations between augmentations and loss values and identifies difficult augmentations. The difficult augmentations are then intentionally emphasized during subsequent training periods, to increase the likelihood that the neural network is trained on difficult augmentations to enhance the neural network's capacity to adapt and learn from error-prone conditions.

  • Patent number: 12783963
    Abstract: A system and method for configuration-driven continuous training of large language models in autonomous medical coding normalize multi-source electronic health data into provenance-preserving, specialty-aware schemas and provide schema-mapped context to a configurable multi-stage reasoning pipeline to generate candidate code bundles including evaluation and management levels, procedure codes, modifiers, diagnosis codes, and linkages. A ruleset-based validation layer enforces bundling, modifier applicability, and payer policies, and emits machine-readable explanations with rule identifiers, evidence references, and pass/fail indicators. A telemetry-enabled user interface captures approvals, rejections, edits, and rationales, which are consolidated with validation results into provenance-tracked training examples via a trust- or quality-weighted consensus.

  • Patent number: 12770041
    Abstract: A Hierarchical Ensembles of Autonomous Decision Systems (HEADS) system with a recursive ensemble weighting update is proposed. The system is built on fuzzy logic leading to an understandable and tractable logic design that leverages subject matter experts to design system operations. The hierarchical structure enables multi-layered logic for granular control and decisions incorporating inferred information. The control output from each ensemble is a mixture from independently trained fuzzy systems processed through a gating network. The gating network weights are updated recursively. Each expert uses a subset of the input space to minimize per-expert complexity and support ensemble robustness under uncertain or evolving state realizations and operating environments. Finally, autonomy based on fuzzy systems offers the potential for increased human comprehension of an agent's status and decision logic.

  • Patent number: 12737692
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for training and implementing logic gate networks for inference tasks. An untrained node network includes a first set of nodes parameterized by differentiable parameters, each associated with a predefined set of potential logic gate operators, and a second set of nodes corresponding to predefined logic gate operators. During training, node outputs of the first set are computed using a first relaxation, and node outputs of the second set are computed using a second relaxation different from the first relaxation. Updated differentiable parameters are applied over multiple training iterations, and a fixed logic-gate network is generated by selecting logic gate operators for at least some nodes in the first set while retaining the predefined logic gate operators for the second set. In some embodiments, the second relaxation imposes structural inductive bias. ASICs and FPGAs implementing fixed logic gate networks are also described.
