  • Publication number: 20240088642
    Abstract: A circuit interrupter including a current sensor having a normal sensor output and an over current detection output, a solid state switch module structured to have a closed state to allow current to flow through the circuit interrupter and an open state to interrupt current flowing through the circuit interrupter, a gate driver structured to control the solid state switch module including a desaturation function output, wherein the gate driver is structured to cause the solid state switch module to interrupt current flowing through the circuit interrupter when the DESAT function output changes to the on state, and an electronic trip circuit structured to output a trip signal to the gate driver when the normal sensor output reaches a first threshold level or the overcurrent detection output changes to the on state.

  • Publication number: 20230093136
    Abstract: Methods and systems of securely exchanging customer data are provided. The exchange may be done in privacy-preserving and/or privacy-protective fashion. Customer data from multiple merchants, including transaction data for a first product between a first customer and a first merchant, is maintained in a customer data pool by an e-commerce platform. When a second merchant associated with a second product requests new customer data, a product (i.e., the first product) relevant to the second product is identified. A collection of customers who indicated interest in the first product (including the first customer) are identified from the customer data pool, and a target audience is generated proportional to customer data exchanged by the second merchant with the customer data pool. Communications from the second merchant are then provided to the target audience without disclosing their customer data to the second merchant.

  • Patent number: 11244351
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to obtaining a model for identifying content matching a query. Training data are received which include queries, advertisements, and hyperlinks. A plurality of subwords are identified from each of the queries and a plurality of input vectors for the plurality of subwords of each of the queries are obtained and an input vector for each of the queries is derived based on a plurality of input vectors of a plurality of subwords of the query. A query/ads model is optimized with respect to an objective function via training an input vector for each of the plurality of subwords associated with each of the queries, an input vector for each of the advertisements and links, and a matrix.

  • Publication number: 20210342747
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to distributed deep machine learning on a cluster. In one example, a request is received for estimating one or more parameters associated with a machine learning model on a cluster including a plurality of nodes. A set of data is obtained to be used for estimating the one or more parameters. The set of data is divided into a plurality of sub-sets of data, each of which corresponds to one of the plurality of nodes. Each sub-set of data is allocated to a corresponding node for estimating values of the one or more parameters based on the sub-set of data. Estimated values of the one or more parameters obtained based on a corresponding sub-set of data allocated to the node, are received from each of the plurality of nodes. The one or more parameters of the machine learning model are estimated based on the estimated values of the one or more parameters generated by at least some of the plurality of nodes.

  • Publication number: 20200027210
    Abstract: In various examples, a virtualized computing platform for advanced computing operations—including image reconstruction, segmentation, processing, analysis, visualization, and deep learning—may be provided. The platform may allow for inference pipeline customization by selecting, organizing, and adapting constructs of task containers for local, on-premises implementation. Within the task containers, machine learning models generated off-premises may be leveraged and updated for location specific implementation to perform image processing operations. As a result, and using the virtualized computing platform, facilities such as hospitals and clinics may more seamlessly train, deploy, and integrate machine learning models within a production environment for providing informative and actionable medical information to practitioners.

  • Publication number: 20190251595
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to identifying content that matches a query. Train data include queries, advertisement, and hyperlinks associated with query sessions. A plurality of subwords for each of the queries in the training data are identified. A query/ads model is then trained by optimizing vectors associated the plurality of subwords for each of the queries, advertisements, and hyperlinks in the training data with respect to an objective function. At least one vector associated with each of the queries is derived based on the plurality of subword vectors in the query/ads model that represent the plurality of subwords of the query.
