  • Publication number: 20230409868
    Abstract: Activation scaled clipping layers for neural networks are described. An activation scaled clipping layer processes an output of a neuron in a neural network using a scaling parameter and a clipping parameter. The scaling parameter defines how numerical values are amplified relative to zero. The clipping parameter specifies a numerical threshold that causes the neuron output to be expressed as a value defined by the numerical threshold if the neuron output satisfies the numerical threshold. In some implementations, the scaling parameter is linear and treats numbers within a numerical range as being equivalent, such that any number in the range is scaled by a defined magnitude, regardless of value. Alternatively, the scaling parameter is nonlinear, which causes the activation scaled clipping layer to amplify numbers within a range by different magnitudes. Each scaling and clipping parameter is learnable during training of a machine learning model implementing the neural network.

  • Publication number: 20220260394
    Abstract: Systems and methods of signal processing for sensors are disclosed. Signal processing methods and systems demodulate the optical interference phase of cascaded individual optical fiber intrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometric sensors in a coherent microwave-photonic interferometry distributed sensing system. The chirp effect of an electro-optic modulator (EOM) is used to create a quasi-quadrature optical interference phase shift between two adjacent pulses which correspond to two adjacent reflection points in the time domain. The phase shift can be controlled by adjusting the bias voltage that is applied to the EOM. The interference phase is calculated by elliptically fitting the phase shift. The interference phase change is proportional to the optical path difference (OPD) change of the interferometer, and the sign can be used to differentiate the increase or decrease of the OPD. The approach shows good linearity, high resolution, and large dynamic range for distributed strain sensing.

  • Patent number: 10819590
    Abstract: A global manager computer generates management instructions for a particular managed server within an administrative domain according to a set of rules. A global manager computer identifies a traffic midpoint device through which the provider managed server provides a service to a user device. The global manager determines a relevant rule from the set of rules that is applicable to communication between the provider managed server and the user device and generates a backend rule that is applicable to communication between the provider managed server and the traffic midpoint device. The global managed generates a backend function-level instruction including a reference to an actor-set authorized to communicate with the provider managed server to use the service. The global manager sends the backend function-level instruction to the provider managed server to configure the provider managed server to enforce the backend rule on communication with the actor-set including the traffic midpoint device.

  • Patent number: 10591418
    Abstract: A pH micro-probe, a temperature micro-probe, and an immuno-based micro-probe each include a shaft for transmuting an input light signal and a tip for inserting into a cell or other substance for measuring pH, temperature, and/or antigens. The pH micro-probe and the temperature micro-probe each include a luminescent material positioned on the tip of the micro-probe. The light signal excites the luminescent material so that the luminescent material emits a luminescent light signal. The luminescent light signal has a property value dependent on the pH or temperature being measured and reflects back through the shaft for being measured by a light signal measuring device. The immuno-based micro-probe includes a reflective material that has an effective refractive index dependent on the number of antigen-antibody bonds present on the reflective material.
