  • Publication number: 20230196204
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for agnostic machine learning inference are provided. A computer system, such as a labeling platform, uses a machine learning (ML) model inference configuration to configure an inference environment to use an ML model to process labeling requests. The ML model inference configuration is agnostic to the particulars of the ML platform being used. An adapter maps the ML model inference configuration to an ML platform specific format to instantiate a running system on a given platform.

  • Patent number: 11562172
    Abstract: One embodiment includes a computer-implemented data labeling platform. The platform provides a confidence-driven workflow (CDW) executable to receive and process labeling requests to label data items. The CDW comprises a set of executable labelers, each labeler in having a dynamically modeled confidence range. The execution path for processing a labeling request to label a data item is dynamically determined.

  • Publication number: 20210309952
    Abstract: Provided are cell plate inserts that include an interior lip and legs on a bottom side. The cell plate inserts can have a diameter that provides a snug fit within a cell plate or well. The cell plate inserts can include a cell support membrane disposed on an interior lip of the cell plate insert. The cell plate inserts can be included in systems for cell co-culture, where cells cultured in a top chamber formed by the cell plate insert do not infiltrate cells cultured in a bottom chamber formed by the cell plate insert.

  • Publication number: 20210209509
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide mechanisms to generate synthetic data that meets customized invariance and diversity criteria at scale using a combination of machine and human activities. Embodiments can be used, for example, to generate a large set of labeled data that preserves invariances that are relevant to a specified target application (e.g., training a ML model to produce a given inference) while expanding both the quantity and diversity/variation of data relevant to that application. In some embodiments, a complex workflow can be defined that combines stages having both machine processes and human processes that provide guidance from assessors to generators such that subsequent data generation is improved through feedback that can include human input at scale.

  • Publication number: 20210192394
    Abstract: Systems, methods and products for optimization of a machine learning labeler. In one method, labeling requests are received and corresponding label inferences are generated using a champion model. A portion of the labeling requests and corresponding inferences is selected for use as training data, and labels are generated for the selected requests, thereby producing corresponding augmented results. A first portion of the augmented results are provided as training data to an experiment coordinator, which then trains one or more challenger models using these augmented results. A second portion of the augmented results is provided as evaluation data to a model evaluator, which evaluates the performance of the challenger models and the champion model. If one of the challenger models has higher performance than the champion model, the model evaluator promotes the challenger model to replace the champion model.

  • Patent number: 10982424
    Abstract: A liquid quality system for removing particulates from liquid (e.g., storm-water runoff). The system can include tubular portion (e.g., a manhole). The tubular portion has an inlet and an outlet. The system includes liquid quality device. The liquid quality device includes a partitioning portion. The partitioning portion has a first region including a funnel shape with a sump inlet aperture. The partitioning portion also has a second region including a sump outlet aperture and optionally a sump access aperture. A sump region is located between a base portion and the partitioning portion, wherein a flow of the liquid travels from the inlet in the tubular portion, into the funnel, through the sump inlet aperture, into the sump region, through the sump outlet aperture, and out the outlet of the tubular portion. At least one drag-inducing portion is positioned proximate the tubular portion in the sump region and projecting inwardly towards a central axis of the sump region.

  • Patent number: 10885102
    Abstract: A user may capture an image of a document using a mobile device. The mobile device may crop and clean the image. The mobile device may perform optical character recognition on the image and output a character string. The mobile device may match portions of the character string with stored records and determine a likelihood that the stored record corresponds to the image. The mobile device may display potential matches for the image, and the user may select the record which matches the image.
