  • Publication number: 20250148214
    Abstract: A neuro-symbolic retrieval augmented generation hybrid method includes detecting an incomplete entigen group within a knowledge database. The incomplete entigen group includes entigens and one or more entigen relationships between at least some of the entigens. The incomplete entigen group represents knowledge of a topic. The method further includes obtaining additive content for the topic based on the incomplete entigen group and generating an additive entigen group based on the additive content. The method further includes updating the incomplete entigen group utilizing the additive entigen group to produce an updated entigen group. The method further includes indicating that the updated entigen group has an un-curated status when the additive entigen group conflicts with the incomplete entigen group.

  • Patent number: 12287818
    Abstract: A method includes determining a set of identigens for each word of at least some words of a string of words of a query to produce a plurality of sets of identigens. The method further includes interpreting, based on a first knowledge database, the plurality of sets of identigens to produce a first entigen group and generating a first preliminary query response based on the first entigen group. The method further includes interpreting, based on a second knowledge database, the plurality of sets of identigens to produce a second entigen group and generating a second preliminary query response based on the second entigen group. The method further includes comparing the first and second preliminary query responses and when the first preliminary query response and the second preliminary query response are divergent, resolving inconsistencies between the first and second preliminary query responses to produce a final query response.

  • Publication number: 20250110980
    Abstract: A method performed by a computing device includes generating a neural network representation of a subjective query and generating a query entigen group as a symbolic architecture representation of the subjective query. The method further includes identifying one or more characteristic entigen categories for a subjective category entigen of the query entigen group. The method further includes generating a symbolic architecture representation of a query response for the subjective query that includes a set of response entigens based on the one or more characteristic entigen categories. The set of response entigens provides an answer for the subjective query.

    Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining that a set of words are included in a word set. The method further includes determining a set of identigens for each word of the word set to produce sets of identigens, where a set of identigens of the sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a word of the word set. The method further includes interpreting, using identigen pairing rules, the sets of identigens to produce an entigen set. The method further includes assigning a single new entigen to represent the entigen set, where the single new entigen represents a most likely meaning interpretation of the word set.

  • Publication number: 20250077560
    Abstract: A method includes selecting an entigen group from a knowledge database. The entigen group is a most likely meaning of a phrase of a string of words. An entigen of the entigen group corresponds to a selected identigen from a set of identigens regarding a word of the string of words. The set of identigens represent different meanings of the word. The method further includes identifying other entigen groups of alternate phrases having a similar most likely meaning from the knowledge database. The alternate phrases are different permutations of the string of words. The method further includes determining a dominant sentiment the other entigen groups and generating an updated clarifying entigen group based on the sentiment.

  • Publication number: 20250077900
    Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining to extend knowledge within a knowledge database for an object represented by linked entigens of an entigen group based on a deficiency of the entigen group. The method further includes determining a set of identigens for each word of a phrase associated with the object to produce sets of identigens. The method further includes interpreting the sets of identigens to determine a most likely meaning interpretation of the phrase and produce a new entigen group. The method further includes updating the entigen group utilizing the new entigen group to produce a curated entigen group such that a deficiency of the entigen group is resolved providing more accurate and more complete knowledge of the object.

  • Patent number: 12178829
    Abstract: Provided are compounds, compositions, methods, and kits for increasing target specificity of a mannosylated carbohydrate polymeric therapeutic or diagnostic compound to reduce or eliminate localization of the mannosylated carbohydrate polymeric therapeutic or diagnostic compound to off-target sites. Mannosylated carbohydrate polymers are synthesized to be modified to be either polyanionic (i.e., net negatively charged) or electrostatically neutral, and using these polyanionic or neutral mannosylated carbohydrate polymers as competitors for polycationic (i.e., net positively charged) mannosylated carbohydrate polymers carrying small molecule drug payloads or imaging moieties to CD206 expressing cells in target tissues, such as tumors or other sites of inflammation.
