  • Patent number: 11803730
    Abstract: Roughly described, the technology disclosed provides a so-called machine-learned conversion optimization (MLCO) system that uses artificial neural networks and evolutionary computations to efficiently identify most successful webpage designs in a search space without testing all possible webpage designs in the search space. The search space is defined based on webpage designs provided by marketers. Neural networks are represented as genomes. Neural networks map user attributes from live user traffic to different dimensions and dimension values of output funnels that are presented to the users in real time. The genomes are subjected to evolutionary operations like initialization, testing, competition, and procreation to identify parent genomes that perform well and offspring genomes that are likely to perform well.

  • Patent number: 11586860
    Abstract: A method and data processing system for detecting tampering of a machine learning model is provided. The method includes training a machine learning model. During a training operating period, a plurality of input values is provided to the machine learning model. In response to a predetermined invalid input value, the machine learning model is trained that a predetermined output value will be expected. The model is verified that it has not been tampered with by inputting the predetermined invalid input value during an inference operating period. If the expected output value is provided by the machine learning model in response to the predetermined input value, then the machine learning model has not been tampered with. If the expected output value is not provided, then the machine learning model has been tampered with. The method may be implemented using the data processing system.
