  • Publication number: 20240103097
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a direct current (DC) transformer error detection apparatus for a pulsating harmonic signal, including a DC and pulsating harmonic current output module and an external detected input module, where the DC and pulsating harmonic current output module outputs a DC and a DC superimposed pulsating harmonic current to an internal sampling circuit and a self-calibrated standard resistor array; and the internal sampling circuit converts the input DC and the input DC superimposed pulsating harmonic current into a voltage signal, and sends the voltage signal to an analog-to-digital (AD) sampling and measurement component through a front-end conditioning circuit and a detected input channel. The DC transformer error detection apparatus can complete self-calibration for measurement of the DC and the pulsating harmonic signal on a test site.

  • Patent number: 11941346
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide methods and systems for effectively and efficiently summarizing long documents. A transformer is provided with bottom-up and top-down inference combined to effectively capture long-range dependency. In the bottom-up inference, each token only attends to nearby tokens within a window of a specified size. In the top-down inference, full self-attention is given using units with coarser granularity. The bottom-up-inferred token representations are then updated with the top-down representations, which is achieved with cross-attention between the top and token levels. Multiple levels of top-down representations with increasingly coarser granularity can be used if documents are extremely long.

  • Patent number: 11928574
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an automated neural architecture search approach for designing new neural network architectures such as, for example, resource-constrained mobile CNN models. In particular, the present disclosure provides systems and methods to perform neural architecture search using a novel factorized hierarchical search space that permits layer diversity throughout the network, thereby striking the right balance between flexibility and search space size. The resulting neural architectures are able to be run relatively faster and using relatively fewer computing resources (e.g., less processing power, less memory usage, less power consumption, etc.), all while remaining competitive with or even exceeding the performance (e.g., accuracy) of current state-of-the-art mobile-optimized models.

  • Patent number: 11876760
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus related to identifying one or more messages sent by a user, identifying two or more contacts that are associated with one or more of the messages, determining a strength of relationship score between identified contacts, and utilizing the strength of relationship scores to provide additional information related to the contacts. A strength of relationship score between a contact and one or more other contacts may be determined based on one or more properties of one or more of the messages. In some implementations, contacts groups may be determined based on the strength of relationship scores. In some implementations, contacts groups may be utilized to disambiguate references to contacts in messages. In some implementations, contacts group may be utilized to provide suggestions to the user of additional contacts of a contacts group that includes the indicated recipient contact of a message.

  • Publication number: 20230419027
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a prompt-based transfer learning method that employs shared latent space prompt tuning). Specifically, a shared latent space is assumed, among all source and target tasks, where each vector in the space captures a basis skill to do a particular task. Given an instance (from either a source task or a target task), it is first encoded into an instance representation vector and then queries the latent space, which yields a skill vector for this instance. This vector modulates a frozen model, via soft prompts which are a simple prompt transformation (the prompt generator in FIG. 3) of the basis skill vector, to generate an answer for the instance. The latent space and prompt transformation are learned end-to-end in upstream pre-training on source tasks.

  • Publication number: 20230280985
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a program synthesis framework that generates code programs through a multi-turn conversation between a user and a system. Specifically, the description to solve a target problem is factorized into multiple steps, each of which includes a description in natural language (prompt) to be input into the generation model as a user utterance. The model in turn synthesizes functionally correct subprograms following the current user utterance and considering descriptions and synthesized subprograms at previous steps. The subprograms generated at the multiple steps are then combined to form an output of program in response to the target problem.

  • Publication number: 20220372652
    Abstract: The present invention provides a preparation method of a gallium nitride single crystal based on a ScAlMgO4 substrate, comprising following steps: (1) providing a ScAlMgO4 substrate; (2) growing a buffer layer on a surface of the ScAlMgO4 substrate; (3) annealing the buffer layer; (4) growing a GaN crystal on the buffer layer; (5) performing cooling, so that the GaN crystal is automatically peeled off from the ScAlMgO4 substrate. The present invention does not need to use a complex MOCVD process for GaN deposition and preprocessing to make a mask or a separation layer, which effectively reduces production costs; compared with traditional substrates such as sapphire, it has higher quality and a larger radius of curvature, and will not cause a problem of OFFCUT non-uniformity for growing GaN over 4 inches; finally, the present invention can realize continuous growth into a crystal bar with a thickness of more than 5 mm, which further reduces the costs.

  • Patent number: 11397658
    Abstract: Techniques for a service provider network to allow users to quickly and easily establish a testing environment to test various virtual machine (VM) instance types for hosting their workloads. Rather than identifying and recommending optimized VM instance types for hosting workloads of users, the techniques allow for users to initially test the VM instance types and determine how well their workloads perform on the VM instance types. Users can quickly and easily (e.g., “one-click” input) request that a testing environment be established. The optimization service can then test one or more recommended VM instance types for the users' workloads in the testing environment. The optimization service can monitor the performance of the VM instance types while they host the “test workloads,” and provide the users with performance metrics to help them decide if they would like to migrate their workloads to the recommended VM instance types.
