  • Patent number: 11789175
    Abstract: A multi-energy static security CT system comprises at least one N-stage image chain structure (5) and a baggage conveying belt (4) provided at an inner side at the bottom of the N-stage image chain structure (5). The N-stage image chain structure (5) and the baggage conveying belt (4) are fixed at a pre-configured positions by means of a machine frame (8). The N-stage image chain structures (5) are sequentially arranged in a forward direction of a baggage channel, and adjacent N-stage image chain structures (5) are offset relative to each other. By exposing radiation sources in the N-stage image chain structure (5) at different times, the static security CT system generates an image having a higher temporal resolution and more energy spectrum levels than an image generated by a spiral CT system. Also provided is an imaging method implemented by means of the static security CT system.

  • Patent number: 11204968
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a platform is provided that utilizes information available to a computer system to feed a neural network. The neural network is trained to determine both the probability that a searcher would select a given potential search result if it was presented to him or her and the probability that a subject of the potential search result would respond to a communication from the searcher. These probabilities are essentially combined to produce a single score that can be used to determine whether to present the searcher with the potential search result and, if so, how high to rank the potential search result among other search results. In a further example embodiment, embeddings used for the input features are modified during training to maximize an objective.

  • Patent number: 10990754
    Abstract: This disclosure provides for systems and methods that generate personalized electronic messages for members of a networked communication service. The personalized electronic messages are generated according to commonalities between member profiles. In one approach, an electronic message template is referenced based on the commonalities. The electronic message template is populated with member profile attribute values selected from the member profiles. In another approach, a long-short term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network (RNN) is used to generate the electronic messages. Under this approach, a sequence-to-sequence model is trained using previous electronic messages labeled with one or more member profile attributes and/or member profile attribute values. When provided with one or more member profile attribute values associated with matching member profiles, the LSTM RNN outputs a relevant and appropriate electronic message designed to create an interest in the recipient of the electronic message.

  • Publication number: 20200311613
    Abstract: Herein are techniques for configuring, integrating, and operating trainable tensor transformers that each encapsulate an ensemble of trainable machine learning (ML) models. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented trainable tensor transformer uses underlying ML models and additional mechanisms to assemble and convert data tensors as needed to generate output records based on input records and inferencing. The transformer processes each input record as follows. Input tensors of the input record are converted into converted tensors. Each converted tensor represents a respective feature of many features that are capable of being processed by the underlying trainable models. The trainable models are applied to respective subsets of converted tensors to generate an inference for the input record. The inference is converted into a prediction tensor. The prediction tensor and input tensors are stored as output tensors of a respective output record for the input record.

  • Patent number: 10600003
    Abstract: Techniques for auto-tuning anomaly detection are provided. In one technique, training data is stored that comprises training instances, each of which comprises a severity-duration pair and a label that indicates whether the severity-duration pair represents an anomaly. A model is trained based on a first subset of the training data. A second subset of the training data is identified where each training instance includes a positive label that indicates that that training instance represents an anomaly. Based on the second subset of the training data, the model generates multiple scores, each of which corresponds to a different training instance. A minimum score is identified that ensures a particular recall rate of the model. In response to receiving a particular severity-duration pair, the model generates a particular score for the particular severity-duration pair. A notification of an anomaly is generated if the particular score is greater than the minimum score.

  • Publication number: 20190266497
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains a knowledge graph containing a set of job transitions for members of an online network. Next, the system receives a career path query for a member of the online network. The system then uses member features for the member and parameters of the career path query to identify one or more paths in the knowledge graph that match the career path query.
