  • Patent number: 11335328
    Abstract: Methods are provided for generating training triplets that can be used to train multidimensional embeddings to represent the semantic content of non-speech sounds present in a corpus of audio recordings. These training triplets can be used with a triplet loss function to train the multidimensional embeddings such that the embeddings can be used to cluster the contents of a corpus of audio recordings, to facilitate a query-by-example lookup from the corpus, to allow a small number of manually-labeled audio recordings to be generalized, or to facilitate some other audio classification task. The triplet sampling methods may be used individually or collectively, and each represent a respective heuristic about the semantic structure of audio recordings.

  • Patent number: 11188489
    Abstract: A method of configuring a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection between a first and second devices, the USB connection comprising a plurality of data channels, each having a pair of signal links, each signal link including a port at either end of the connection, and a signal wire formed of one or more physical wires extending between corresponding ports. Each of the signal links are configured with a first direction for transmission of data. The first direction is determined based on an initial required data transmission capacity in each direction between the first and second devices. Thereafter, depending on required capacity in the different directions, a selection is made which of the signal links should change their direction of transmission from the first direction to a second direction and a redirection signal is sent to each of the selected signal links to cause the change in direction of transmission.
