  • Publication number: 20240112013
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to generative models for datasets constrained by marginal constraints. One method includes receiving a request to generate a target dataset based on a marginal constraint for a source dataset. A first object occurs at a source frequency in the source dataset. The marginal constraint indicates a target frequency for the first object. The source dataset encodes a set of co-occurrence frequencies for a plurality of object pairs. A source generative model is accessed. The source generative model includes a first module and a second module that are trained on the source dataset. The second module is updated based on the marginal constraint. An adapted generative model is generated that includes the first module and the updated second module. The target dataset is generated based on the adapted generative model. The first object occurs at the target frequency in the target dataset. The target dataset encodes the set of co-occurrence frequencies for the plurality of object pairs.

  • Patent number: 11947503
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating data defining a graph. In one aspect, a method comprises: sequentially generating a respective edge set for each node in the graph, wherein for each of a plurality of nodes after a first node, generating the edge set for the node comprises: receiving a context embedding for the node that summarizes a respective edge set for each node that precedes the node; generating, based on the context embedding for the node: (i) a respective edge set for the node, and (ii) a respective embedding of the edge set for the node; generating a context embedding for a next node in the ordering of the nodes using the embedding of the edge set for the node; and adding the set of edges defined by the edge set for the node to the graph.

  • Patent number: 7595196
    Abstract: The present invention is directed novel lateral flow devices for analyzing liquid samples. The devices contain chemical test strips and are useful for testing liquids for physical properties, such as pH, specific gravity, contamination or adulteration, the presence of proteins or blood, and the like. The test strips contain a bibulous material, a filter element, a reagent pad, and in some embodiments also contain a hydrophobic member and a cover. Any fluid can be tested, for example, urine or other body fluids, environmental samples, biological samples, clinical samples, or food and beverage samples.
