Abstract: A method may include applying a protein sequence computation model to generate, based on an input protein sequence, a plurality of proposed protein sequences. A set of possible amino acid residues for each position in at least a portion of an output protein sequence may be identified based on the plurality of proposed protein sequences. A first protein structure having the output protein sequence may be generated by applying a protein structure computation model to select, for each position in at least the portion of the output protein sequence, an amino acid residue from a corresponding set of possible amino acid residues. The protein structure computation model may further determine the conformation of the amino acid residues selected for inclusion in the output protein sequence. In some cases, the first protein structure may be grafted onto a second protein structure to form a third protein structure.

Abstract: An electrosurgical instrument includes an end effector assembly including first and second jaw members.

Abstract: A method of controlling an aeronautical gas turbine engine may be performed with an electronic controller. The method may include determining an airfoil pitch control command for at least one of a plurality of airfoils of the aeronautical gas turbine engine based at least in part on an excitation load acting upon the aeronautical gas turbine engine, and outputting the airfoil pitch control command to one or more actuators actuatable to change a pitch angle of the at least one of the plurality of airfoils. The airfoil pitch control command may be configured to augment and/or compensate for the excitation load acting upon the aeronautical gas turbine engine. The method may be embodied by a non-transitory computer-readable medium that includes computer-executable instructions, which when executed by a processor associated with the electronic controller, cause the electronic controller to perform the method.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for normalizing a collection of structured data records generated by an extraction neural network to enable large-scale data processing and analysis for query answering. According to one aspect, there is provided a method that includes extracting text strings from the structured data records, embedding the text strings in a latent space, performing an iterative numerical clustering operation in the latent space to cluster the embeddings of the text strings, and then identifying standardized text strings based on a result of the clustering. The structured data records are normalized using the standardized text strings. The normalized collection of structured data records are then used to generate a response to a user query.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for processing a large corpus of unstructured data using an extraction neural network to generate a corresponding collection of structured data records. According to one aspect, there is provided a method that includes obtaining a set of input text sequences, and generating a collection of structured data records from the set of input text sequences using an extraction neural network. Each structured data record defines a structured representation of a corresponding input text sequence with reference to a predefined schema of semantic categories. The collection of structured data records can be filtered to identify and remove structured data records that are predicted to be unreliable. The collection of structured data records can then be processed to generate an output that is directed to a selected topic and that aggregates information from across multiple structured data records.

Abstract: A convolutional neural network (CNN) system is provided that includes a flexible accelerator configured to convert an input feature map into a set of input sub-feature maps, each having a similar amount of sparsity. The system allows each of the sub-feature maps to be processed independently while taking advantage of the sparsity. In some aspects, the CNN system is configured with an index processor that receives data value indexes and weight indexes and generates data path processor commands for processing by a separate data path processor. In other aspects, unroll circuitry is configured to unroll feature maps to provide index-value compression. The unroll/compression scheme allows an input feature map to be read sequentially (tile-by-tile) so that an accumulate buffer can be implemented with a single read-only path and single write-only path. This can simplify memory control design, eliminating requirements for expensive cache-like structures while also reducing power.
