  • Patent number: 12032616
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems find methods for synthesis of concept definitions and concept relationships from a domain of data, utilizing different semantic processing protocols such formal concept analysis and faceted classification synthesis from existing domain concepts that have a confidence gradient built into them. A cognitive or an input agent provides an input of an active concept which is matched against existing domain concepts. The resultant pool of relevant domain concepts is then used to derive virtual concept definitions using a semantic processing protocol. The derivation is then overlaid with a concept of relative proximity of an attribute from another within an attribute set. An additional layer of coherence is given by the relative proximity measure. The end result is a pool of related virtual concept definitions in a tree structure.

  • Patent number: 12026220
    Abstract: Techniques for an iterative singular spectrum analysis are provided. In one technique, a first analysis, of time series data, is performed that results in a first reconstructed version of the time series data. The first analysis, of the time series data and a portion of the first reconstructed version, is then performed that results in a second reconstructed version of the time series data. Based on a termination condition, it is determined whether to perform the first analysis relative to a portion of a third reconstructed version of the time series data. A second analysis, of the time series data and a portion of a fourth reconstructed version of the time series data, is performed that results in a fifth reconstructed version of the time series data. The second analysis is different than the first analysis. A difference between the time series data and the fifth reconstructed version data is computed.

  • Patent number: 11921820
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for training a machine learning model using intelligently selected multiclass vectors. According to an embodiment, a set of un-labeled feature vectors are received. The set of feature vectors are grouped into clusters within a vector space having fewer dimensions than the first set of feature vectors by applying a homomorphic dimensionality reduction algorithm to the set of feature vectors and performing centroid-based clustering. An optimal set of clusters among the clusters is identified by performing a convex optimization process on the clusters. Vector labeling is minimized by selecting ground truth representative vectors including a representative vector from each cluster of the optimal set of clusters. A set of labeled feature vectors is created based on labels received from an oracle for each of the representative vectors. A machine-learning model is trained for multiclass classification based on the set of labeled feature vectors.
