Publication number: 20240127968Abstract: Herein disclosed are a methods and systems of SAMMI—a machine learning-based workflow that uses human annotations as labels for training models—used to predict human-based annotations for drug discovery. SAMMI receives an input to a model trained using human-annotated data, wherein the human-annotated data comprises at least one annotation associated with a triage-progressability annotation of whether to progress the input for the drug discovery. SAMMI also receives a set of features. The set of features are associated with the input, the model, and the triage-progressability of the input. The set of features is applied to the model to predict whether the input is triage-progressible. A model output is provided based on the prediction.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: BenevolentAI Technology LimitedInventors: Daniel Lawrence NEIL, Dane Sterling CORNEIL, Vinay Prashanth SUBBIAH, Rachel HODOS

Patent number: 11947605Abstract: A system and method for a patent search and analytics software tool that finds prior art for each claim limitation/element by breaking up claims into individual claim limitations. Once the claims are separated, the system finds the best prior art for each of the individual separate, different claim limitations/elements. Additionally, the software finds the best prior art for entire claims, including non-patent literature (NPL) searching. The system takes into account the limitations of the claim under consideration (query claim of query patent), the text of the art, the link structure of the citation network, and the patent classification and then constructs a network that consists of two types of nodes: (i) the art (patents and non-patent literature) and the (ii) classes of the patent classification. Each art node is linked to all the art nodes that it cites and is linked to all the classification nodes that it belongs to.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Inventors: Erich Lawson Spangenberg, Daniel Lawrence Bork, Pascal Asselot, Brian Joshua Berman, George Karypis

Publication number: 20240104676Abstract: An improved parcel growth prediction system that uses parcel data, population data, and artificial intelligence to predict the growth of a geographic area at a micro level (e.g., a real estate parcel level) is described herein. For example, the improved parcel growth prediction system may generate a graph model and apply the graph model as an input to an artificial intelligence model to predict the likelihood that a particular parcel may be developed some time in the future. Ultimately, implementing the improved parcel growth prediction system described herein may lead to more precise placements of infrastructure projects and/or to infrastructure projects that more precisely support the needs of the population of a geographic area as time passes.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Kien Trong Trinh, Daniel Lawrence Gossett, Charles Presley Reynolds, Hans Christian Dumke, Bin He

Patent number: 11921900Abstract: Managing privacy controls in an information handling system to allow Information Technology Decision Makers (ITDMs) to prevent unwanted disclosure of information while allowing users to work together. A first privacy policy is asserted to protect information. When a user device requests an override to access an I/O device, embodiments analyze device parameters and application parameters to determine whether to authorize the use of the I/O device. If the override request is authorized, the user is able to access the I/O device and a new privacy policy is asserted. If a device parameter changes, embodiments may assess whether the change could result in unwanted disclosure of information and dynamically change the privacy policy to prevent the disclosure.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Vivek Viswanathan Iyer, Daniel Lawrence Hamlin
