  • Publication number: 20250118336
    Abstract: Automatic video dubbing methods and apparatuses automatically dub a video signal into a different target language than the original while controllably preserving vocal characteristics of original speakers in the corresponding audio, based on separating audio from the video, preserving audio timings, separating voice and non-voice segments from background noise, and using ASR, MT and signal processing techniques to generate properly sized and selectable speech translations into different languages corresponding to speaker voices in the video and emotions, voice and/or textual characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20250111230
    Abstract: Methods for optimizing a user model are disclosed. In at least some instances, the methods include receiving a user model and then identifying one or more sub-optimal combinations of operations in the user model. The methods further include generating a modification (e.g., an optimal subgraph) for at least one identified sub-optimal combination of operations in the user model and replacing that identified sub-optimal combination of operations with the generated modification for that identified sub-optimal combination of operations. Still further, the method includes returning the user model with the generated modification as a transformed model. Other methods, and systems for performing any methods disclosed, are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20250111229
    Abstract: Methods of modifying an input, such as a prompt, for a machine learning model are disclosed. In at least some instances, the method includes transforming a received user model into a risk-aware model, applying that risk-aware model to a received input, and receiving, based on the application of the risk-aware model, output and corresponding risk values. In turn, the method includes determining whether the corresponding risk values, or an aggregate of such values, are less than a predetermined threshold level. If the values or aggregate are greater than the predetermined threshold level, then a process is performed to modify the input to minimize the corresponding risk values. The risk-aware model is iteratively applied to the modified input and the modification process continues to be performed until the corresponding risk values are less than the predetermined threshold level. Other methods, and systems for performing any methods disclosed, are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20240127153
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques, and related systems, for developing and implementing a unified framework for quantifying risk in machine learning models, such as deep neural networks. The framework can be easy-to-use and flexible to apply to different types of machine learning models. The framework can be used to automatically assess different forms of risk in parallel, including but not limited to aleatoric uncertainty, epistemic uncertainty, and/or vacuitic uncertainty. To that end, the disclosed framework provides wrappers that compose different automatic risk assessment algorithms. The obtained risk estimates can be used, for example, for: providing a deeper insight into decision boundaries of neural networks; performing downstream tasks by integrating the risk estimates back into a learning lifecycle for the model to improve robustness and generalization; and/or improving safety by identifying potential model failures based on the risk values.

  • Publication number: 20230395227
    Abstract: A target trial dataset with trial covariates and clinical outcome data is obtained from a plurality of human patients. An artificial patient dataset is generated by using distributions of one or more corresponding covariates and their correlations derived from the set of trial covariates, and filtering the artificial patient dataset, with each data record of the artificial patient dataset storing covariates of a respective artificial patient. The artificial patient dataset is provided to a disease progression model to generate a simulated dataset with simulated covariates and clinical outcome data for artificial patients not receiving experimental treatment. A treatment effect of a drug is determined by analyzing the trial dataset and the simulated dataset together to incorporate the simulated dataset, wherein the simulated dataset is given a weight in comparison to a control arm of the trial dataset, with the weight based on at least a maximum weight value.
