  • Patent number: 11966832
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a first data set comprising embeddings of first and second types, generating a fixed adjacency matrix from the first dataset, and applying a first stochastic binary mask to the fixed adjacency matrix to obtain a first subgraph of the fixed adjacency matrix. The method also includes processing the first subgraph through a first layer of a graph convolutional network (GCN) to obtain a first embedding matrix, and applying a second stochastic binary mask to the fixed adjacency matrix to obtain a second subgraph of the fixed adjacency matrix. The method includes processing the first embedding matrix and the second subgraph through a second layer of the GCN to obtain a second embedding matrix, and then determining a plurality of gradients of a loss function, and modifying the first stochastic binary mask and the second stochastic binary mask using at least one of the plurality of gradients.

  • Patent number: 8436757
    Abstract: To provide a complex bandpass ??AD modulator capable of suppressing the influence of an image component caused by a mismatch between I- and Q-channels on a signal component with low power consumption. A complex bandpass ??AD modulator 10 is configured by a subtraction unit 20, a complex bandpass filter 30, an addition unit 40, a noise extraction circuit unit 50, an ADC unit 60, and a DAC unit 70. The noise extraction circuit unit 50 extracts a quantized noise signal of the ADC unit 60 based on an input signal of the ADC unit 60 and an output signal of the DAC unit 70, delays the extracted quantized noise signal by one sample time, phase-rotates the delayed signal by a predetermined angle, and feeds back the rotated signal to the input side of the ADC unit 60. Thus, a complex bandpass ??AD modulator capable of suppressing the influence of the image component caused by a mismatch between I- and Q-channels on the signal component with low power consumption is provided.

  • Patent number: 7629911
    Abstract: A high-precision ?? modulator reduces nonlinear noise due to the use of a multibit DAC and has little hardware and power consumption. A digital signal is DA converted and fed back to a subtraction circuit supplied with an analog signal. The DAC used in this feedback circuit uses a DAC (DWADAC) that includes a weighted pointer so that input digital signals are supplied in order to a plurality of segment elements that construct the DAC. In this DWADAC, the construction and number of the pointer is set based on the type and order of the filter disposed before the ADC.

  • Patent number: 7227482
    Abstract: In a first-order complex band-pass filter, multiplexers are alternately switched over between time intervals of phases A and B, where the multiplexers includes two multiplexers provided at input and output stages, and a multiplexer provided in a feedback circuit of each of first-order filters and being switching over whether to invert a sign of a feedback signal. Then in a circuit part sandwiched between the multiplexers, a processing performed by an I circuit part and a processing performed by a Q circuit part are alternately switched over so that a sign of a signal inputted to an adder is inverted.

  • Patent number: 7098828
    Abstract: A complex band-pass ?? AD modulator is provided with a subtracter device, a complex band-pass filter, first and second AD converters, and first and second DA converters. The first and second DA converters and first and second logic circuits are sandwiched by first and second multiplexers. At a first timing of a clock signal, the first multiplexer inputs and outputs the first and second digital signals as they are, and at a second timing thereof, the first multiplexer inputs the first and second digital signals, and outputs the first digital signal as a second digital signal and outputs the second digital signal as a first digital signal. The second multiplexer inputs and outputs first and second analog signals similarly. The first and second logic circuits substantially noise-shapes non-linearities of the first and second DA converters by realizing complex digital and analog filters, using high-pass and low-pass element rotation methods.
