  • Publication number: 20240119275
    Abstract: A method for contrastive learning by selecting dropout ratios and locations based on reinforcement learning includes receiving training data having a positive sample corresponding to a target and negative samples not corresponding to the target. A dropout policy for a neural network is produced based on the training data, where the dropout policy identifies at least one connection between neurons in the neural network to dropout. The training data is encoded, based on the dropout policy, to form embeddings, where the embeddings include multiple positive sample embeddings corresponding to the positive sample and multiple negative sample embedding corresponding to the negative samples.

  • Patent number: 8146010
    Abstract: A method and system for combining tabs of a tabbed document interface (“TDI”) is provided. A combinable TDI system allows tabs of a TDI to be combined to form a single tab of the TDI. To combine tabs, the combinable TDI system generates a combined tab name from the tab names of the tabs to be combined and combined tab content from the content of the tabs to be combined. If the width of the content is greater than what can be currently displayed in the window, the combinable TDI system may add a scroll bar to the TDI so that the user can scroll and make visible portions of the content that were previously not visible. The combinable TDI system then displays the combined tab and removes the tabs that have been combined. The combinable TDI system may also allow a user to split a combined tab into separate tabs.
