Abstract: Data representations are formed of a target substrate and a plurality of donor coupons that are incompletely filled with functional chips. The data representations are abstracted into a current state description of the target substrate and the donor coupons and input into a machine learning model that has been trained on previous mass transfer sequences. An optimal output of the machine learning model defines at least a selected one or more of the donor coupons and corresponding functional chips of the selected one or more of the donor coupons used to fill the vacancies. A parallel transfer of the corresponding functional chips is performed to fill the vacancies on the target substrate using the selected one or more of the donor coupons.

Abstract: A method utilizes a target substrate has an array of chips on a carrier with a plurality of vacancies and a plurality of donor coupons are incompletely filled with functional chips. A bounding box is defined that encompasses the vacancies on the target substrate. Outcomes are simulated by overlapping a representation of the bounding box over a representation of each of a plurality of donor coupons at a plurality of translational offsets on a substrate plane to determine matches. An optimal one of the outcomes is found at a selected one or more of the donor coupons corresponding one or more offsets. A parallel transfer of the matching functional chips fills the vacancies on the target substrate using the one or more selected donor coupons and corresponding one or more offsets.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a system for processing natural-language entries. The system obtains a plurality of historical natural-language entries associated with a first domain and pre-processes the historical natural-language entries to obtain a set of generic terms and a set of domain-specific terms. The system trains a machine learning model in the first domain using the plurality of historical natural-language entries associated with the first domain. The training comprises learning weight values of one or more generic terms, a weight value of a respective generic term indicating likelihood that the generic term is related to a trigger event. The system generalizes the machine learning model trained in the first domain, thereby allowing the model to be applied to a second domain.

Abstract: Digitized media is received that records a conversation between individuals. Cues are extracted from the digitized media that indicate properties of the conversation. The cues are entered as training data into a machine learning module to create a trained machine learning model. The trained machine learning model is used in a processor to detect other misalignments in subsequent digitized conversations.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for distributed activity detection is provided. Contextual data collected for a user performing an activity is processed on a mobile computing device. The mobile computing device extracts features from the contextual data and compares the features with a set of models. Each model represents an activity. A confidence score is assigned to each model based on the comparison with the features and the mobile computing device transmits the features to a server when the confidence scores for the models are low. The server trains a new model using the features and sends the new model to the mobile computing device.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for multi-domain clustering. During operation, the system collects domain data for at least two domains associated with users, wherein a domain is a source of data describing observable activities of a user.

Then, the system analyzes the domain data with a multi-domain probability model that includes variables for two or more domains to determine a probability distribution of each domain associated with the probability model and to assign users to clusters associated with user roles.

Abstract: A method is provided for parsing a table. The method includes: receiving an input containing the table; finding candidate separators within the table; and determining which candidate separators are at least one of real and spurious by optimizing an objective function over the set of found candidate separators. Suitably, the function measures numerically whether a parse produced by the set of real separators is accurate. The function suitably includes one or more terms that account for multiple aspects of the table including at least two of: quality of candidate separators; coherence of cells within the parse; quality of cells within the parse; coherence of entire rows within the parse; quality of entire rows within the parse; coherence of entire columns within the parse; quality of entire columns within the parse; layout consistency along an axis of the table; and repeatability along the axis of the table.
