  • Publication number: 20220309093
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for generating tags for an object portrayed in a digital image based on predicted attributes of the object. For example, the disclosed systems can utilize interleaved neural network layers of alternating inception layers and dilated convolution layers to generate a localization feature vector. Based on the localization feature vector, the disclosed systems can generate attribute localization feature embeddings, for example, using some pooling layer such as a global average pooling layer. The disclosed systems can then apply the attribute localization feature embeddings to corresponding attribute group classifiers to generate tags based on predicted attributes. In particular, attribute group classifiers can predict attributes as associated with a query image (e.g., based on a scoring comparison with other potential attributes of an attribute group).

  • Publication number: 20220292356
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems, methods, and products that generate trained neural networks that are robust against adversarial attacks. During a training phase, an illustrative computer may iteratively optimize a loss function that may include a penalty for ill-conditioned weight matrices in addition to a penalty for classification errors. Therefore, after the training phase, the trained neural network may include one or more well-conditioned weight matrices. The one or more well-conditioned weight matrices may minimize the effect of perturbations within an adversarial input thereby increasing the accuracy of classification of the adversarial input. By contrast, conventional training approaches may merely reduce the classification errors using backpropagation, and, as a result, any perturbation in an input is prone to generate a large effect on the output.

  • Publication number: 20220245141
    Abstract: An interactive search session is implemented using an artificial intelligence model. For example, when the artificial intelligence model receives a search query from a user, the model selects an action from a plurality of actions based on the search query. The selected action queries the user for more contextual cues about the search query (e.g., may enquire about use of the search results, may request to refine the search query, or otherwise engage the user in conversation to better understand the intent of the search). The interactive search session may be in the form, for example, of a chat session between the user and the system, and the chat session may be displayed along with the search results (e.g., in a separate section of display). The interactive search session may enable the system to better understand the user's search needs, and accordingly may help provide more focused search results.

  • Publication number: 20220224680
    Abstract: Local data can be made available in a cloud computing environment. A persistent remote connection may be established between a processor and a server. The server may receive a request for data from an external device through a network. The request for data may be sent through the persistent remote connection from the server to a first executable process of the processor. The processor may obtain the data from an application being executed by the processor separately from the first executable process. The data may be sent through the persistent remote connection from the processor to the server. The server may send the data to the external device through the network in response to the request. The persistent remote connection may be maintained in an open state regardless of a status of the request for data.

  • Publication number: 20220198717
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for utilizing deep learning to intelligently determine compression settings for compressing a digital image. For instance, the disclosed system utilizes a neural network to generate predicted perceptual quality values for compression settings on a compression quality scale. The disclosed system fits the predicted compression distortions to a perceptual distortion characteristic curve for interpolating predicted perceptual quality values across the compression settings on the compression quality scale. Additionally, the disclosed system then performs a search over the predicted perceptual quality values for the compression settings along the compression quality scale to select a compression setting based on a perceptual quality threshold. The disclosed system generates a compressed digital image according to compression parameters for the selected compression setting.

  • Patent number: 11367271
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for one-shot and few-shot image segmentation on classes of objects that were not represented during training. In some embodiments, a dual prediction scheme may be applied in which query and support masks are jointly predicted using a shared decoder, which aids in similarity propagation between the query and support features. Additionally or alternatively, foreground and background attentive fusion may be applied to utilize cues from foreground and background feature similarities between the query and support images. Finally, to prevent overfitting on class-conditional similarities across training classes, input channel averaging may be applied for the query image during training. Accordingly, the techniques described herein may be used to achieve state-of-the-art performance for both one-shot and few-shot segmentation tasks.

  • Patent number: 11354590
    Abstract: Rule determination for black-box machine-learning models (BBMLMs) is described. These rules are determined by an interpretation system to describe operation of a BBMLM to associate inputs to the BBMLM with observed outputs of the BBMLM and without knowledge of the logic used in operation by the BBMLM to make these associations. To determine these rules, the interpretation system initially generates a proxy black-box model to imitate the behavior of the BBMLM based solely on data indicative of the inputs and observed outputs—since the logic actually used is not available to the system. The interpretation system generates rules describing the operation of the BBMLM by combining conditions—identified based on output of the proxy black-box model—using a genetic algorithm. These rules are output as if-then statements configured with an if-portion formed as a list of the conditions and a then-portion having an indication of the associated observed output.
