  • Patent number: 10885531
    Abstract: A counterfeit detection system provides an artificial intelligence (AI) platform that implements a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) to classify an image as one of a fake or genuine item and integrates a Classification Activation Module (CAM) to refine counterfeit detection. The GAN may include a generator that generates simulated counterfeit images for a discriminator. The discriminator may be trained to identify faked items by learning from the simulated counterfeit images and/or images of actual faked items. The discriminator may implement a deep neural network of convolutional layers that each analyze a region of an image and produce a weighted output that contributes to the classification based on the analyzed region. The CAM may identify the regions and weights relied upon by the discriminator, provide corresponding heatmaps to subject matter experts, receive annotations from the subject matter experts, and use the annotations as feedback to refine the classifier of the discriminator.

  • Publication number: 20200097601
    Abstract: An example method may include receiving unstructured data; identifying a first plurality of entities in the unstructured data; identifying first relationships associated with the first plurality of entities using an entity relation model; receiving structured data; identifying a second plurality of entities in the structured data; identifying second relationships associated with the second plurality of entities using the entity relation model; generating a knowledge graph that is representative of the first plurality of entities, wherein the first relationships are associated with the first plurality of entities and the second relationships are associated with the second plurality of entities; determining a probability that a first node from the knowledge graph and a second node from the knowledge graph corresponds to a same entity; and performing an action associated with the probability that the first node and the second node corresponds to the same entity.
