  • Patent number: 11544597
    Abstract: A method of improving computing efficiency of a computing device for language-independent problem solving and reasoning includes receiving a query from a user, which is decomposed into one or more sub-queries arranged according to a tree structure. The one or more sub-queries are executed in a knowledge base. The results of the executed one or more sub-queries are received and composed into a query response. The query response is transmitted to the user.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11537852
    Abstract: A system includes a plurality of graph convolutional networks corresponding to a plurality of time steps, each network modelling a graph including nodes and edges, and in turn including a plurality of graph convolution units; an evolving mechanism; and an output layer. Each of the units, for a given one of the time steps, takes as input a graph adjacency matrix, a node feature matrix, and a parameter matrix for a current layer, and outputs a new node feature matrix for a next highest layer. The mechanism takes as input a parameter matrix for a prior time step updates the input parameter matrix, and outputs the parameter matrix for the given time step. The output layer obtains, as input, output of each of the units for a final time step, and based on the output of each of the units for the final time step, outputs a graph solution.
