  • Patent number: 11860766
    Abstract: Methods and systems provide for a notebook interactive programming environment, having out-of-order code-cell execution, which communicates potential cell execution outcomes. If an event handler receives an event (e.g., open notebook, code change, code execution, etc.) for a cell, without a request for a specific type of analysis (e.g., data-leakage, stale-state), intra-cell analysis is executed based-on the cell's abstract semantics, and an abstract state and pre-summaries are output that indicate the cell's propagation dependency (unbounded variables). If an analysis is associated with the event, starting with the stored abstract state, inter-cell analysis is recursively executed on successor cells having propagation dependencies, until a terminating criteria is reached. Outcomes (e.g., affected cell, line number, bug type, metrics, etc.) are sent via the notebook user-interface to warn users, ahead of concrete code execution, of hypothetical unsafe or safe actions in executing the notebook's code cells.

  • Patent number: 11803458
    Abstract: Probabilistic models may be used in a deterministic workflow for robotic process automation (RPA). Machine learning (ML) introduces a probabilistic framework where the outcome is not deterministic, and therefore, the steps are not deterministic. Deterministic workflows may be mixed with probabilistic workflows, or probabilistic activities may be inserted into deterministic workflows, in order to create more dynamic workflows. A supervisor system may be used to monitor an ML model and raise an alarm, disable an RPA robot, bypass an RPA robot, or roll back to a previous version of the ML model when an error is detected by a data drift detector, a concept drift detector, or both.

  • Patent number: 11797274
    Abstract: Disclosed implementations provide executable models, such as artificial intelligence models that can be owned, traded, and used in various execution environments. By coupling a model with a strictly defined interface definition, the model can be executed in various execution environments that support the interface. Coupling the model with a non-fungible cryptographic token allows the model and other components to be owned and traded as a unit. The tradeable composite units have utility across multiple supported execution environments, such as video game environments, chat bot environments and financial trading environments. Additionally, the interface allows for the creation of pipelines and systems from multiple complementary composite units.
