  • Patent number: 12354015
    Abstract: A method reduces storage usage during processing of a neural network performed by an information processing apparatus comprising a storage. The network may be represented by operators that operate on an input feature map and generate an output feature map. A representation of the network is generated as a linear sequence of operators. Operators are identified in the sequence that cannot form part of a cascade and are to be processed with the entire input and output feature map of the respective operator in the storage. The method forms one or more cascades of two or more successive operators in the sequence for which the input feature map of each operator of the cascade is processed in portions, which portions are less than the entire input feature map.

  • Patent number: 12118294
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and products for auto tagging structured PDF documents that do not have accessibility tags. In one embodiment, structured PDF documents having accessibility tags are first parsed and analyzed to organize the visual components of the documents. The relationships of the identified objects to DOM elements (e.g., tags) are determined, and the objects and related DOM elements are stored in training files. The training files are used to train various classifiers. Untagged PDF documents are then parsed to identify included visual objects, and the classifiers are used to determine DOM elements that should be associated with visual objects identified in the untagged PDF documents. This information is used to construct a DOM structure corresponding to each untagged document. A new PDF is then generated corresponding to each untagged document using the generated DOM structure and visual object information.
