    Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and computer-implemented methods for determining relationships between one or more outputs of a first model and one or more inputs of a second model that collectively represent a real world system, and chaining the models together. For example, the system described herein may determine how to chain a plurality of models by training an artificial intelligence system using the nodes of the models such that the trained artificial intelligence system predicts related output and input node connections. The system may then link related nodes to chain the models together. The systems, computer program products, and computer-implemented methods may thus, according to various embodiments, enable a plurality of discrete models to be optimally chained.

  • Patent number: 11810340
    Abstract: A system includes a determination component that determines output for successively larger neural networks of a set; and a consensus component that determines consensus between a first neural network and a second neural network of the set. A linear chain of increasingly complex neural networks trained on progressively larger inputs is utilized (e.g., increasingly complex neural networks is generally representative of increased accuracy). Outputs of progressively networks are computed until a consensus point is reached—where two or more successive large networks yield a same inference output. At such point of consensus the larger neural network of the set reaching consensus can be deemed appropriately sized (or of sufficient complexity) for a classification task at hand.

  • Patent number: 11806551
    Abstract: A treatment planning prediction method to predict a Dose-Volume Histogram (DVH) or Dose Distribution (DD) for patient data using a machine-learning computer framework is provided with the key inclusion of a Planning Target Volume (PTV) only treatment plan in the framework. A dosimetric parameter is used as an additional parameter to the framework and which is obtained from a prediction of the PTV-only treatment plan. The method outputs a Dose-Volume Histogram and/or a Dose Distribution for the patient including the prediction of the PTV-only treatment plan. The method alleviates the complicated process of quantifying anatomical features and harnesses directly the inherent correlation between the PTV-only plan and the clinical plan in the dose domain. The method provides a more robust and efficient solution to the important DVHs prediction problem in treatment planning and plan quality assurance.

  • Patent number: 11797838
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating embeddings for nodes of a corpus graph are presented. The embeddings correspond to aggregated embedding vectors for nodes of the corpus graph. Without processing the entire corpus graph to generate all aggregated embedding vectors, a relevant neighborhood of nodes within the corpus graph are identified for a target node of the corpus graph. Based on embedding information of the target node's immediate neighbors, and also upon neighborhood embedding information from the target node's relevant neighborhood, an aggregated embedding vector can be generated for the target node that comprises both an embedding vector portion corresponding to the target node, as well as a neighborhood embedding vector portion, corresponding to embedding information of the relevant neighborhood of the target node. Utilizing both portions of the aggregated embedding vector leads to improved content recommendation to a user in response to a query.

  • Patent number: 11775807
    Abstract: An artificial neural network (ANN) system includes a processor, a virtual overflow detection circuit and a data format controller. The processor performs node operations with respect to a plurality of nodes included in each layer of an ANN to obtain a plurality of result values of the node operations and performs a quantization operation on the obtained plurality of result values based on a k-th fixed-point format for a current quantization of the each layer to obtain a plurality of quantization values. The virtual overflow detection circuit generates a virtual overflow information indicating a distribution of valid bit numbers of the obtained plurality of quantization values. The data format controller determines a (k+1)-th fixed-point format for a next quantization of the each layer based on the generated virtual overflow information. An overflow and/or an underflow are prevented efficiently by controlling the fixed-point format using the virtual overflow.
