  • Patent number: 12223307
    Abstract: Smart sensors, platforms for smart sensors, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. In some implementations, the platform includes hardware interfaces that are abstracted and/or standardized as defined by various common group types. The abstracted interfaces allow numerous different sensors to be connected and integrated into the smart sensor as desired for a specific application. Further, the platform can reuse a standardized software backbone as a sensor platform as sensors are varied, as well as across multiple smart sensors. In some implementations, the standardized sensor platform can include an on-board resident user interface (RUI) with an internet-accessible portal, allowing users to connect to the RUI on the sensor platform through any network accessible device. The platform can also include an artificial intelligence and/or machine learning engine to turn raw sensor data into real-time automation and inspection information within the sensor within the local environment.

  • Patent number: 12172081
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for detecting personal-space violations in artificial intelligence (AI) based non-player characters (NPCs) are disclosed. An AI engine creates a NPC that accompanies and/or interacts with a player controlled by a user playing a video game. During gameplay, measures of context-dependent personal space around the player and/or one or more NPCs are generated. A control circuit monitors the movements of the NPC during gameplay and determines whether the NPC is adhering to or violating the measures of context-dependent personal space. The control circuit can monitor the movements of multiple NPCs simultaneously during gameplay, keeping a separate score for each NPC. After some amount of time has elapsed, the scores of the NPCs are recorded, and then the scores are provided to a machine learning engine to retrain the AI engines controlling the NPCs.

  • Publication number: 20240408293
    Abstract: Embodiments of negative pressure wound therapy systems, apparatuses, and methods for operating the systems and apparatuses are disclosed. In some embodiments, the apparatus includes a negative pressure source, a connector port, at least one switch, and a controller. The negative pressure source is connected through the connector port to either (i) a wound dressing having a canister configured to store fluid aspirated from the wound or (ii) a wound dressing without a canister between the connector port and the wound dressing. The controller determines, based on a signal received from the at least one switch, whether the canister is positioned in the fluid flow path and adjusts one or more operational parameters of negative pressure wound therapy based on the determination. The switch is activated by the connection of either the canister or canisterless wound dressing to the apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20240193413
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for efficiently creating less computationally intensive nodes for a neural network. In various implementations, a computing system includes a memory that stores multiple input data values for training a neural network, and a processor. Rather than determine a bit width P of an integer accumulator of a node of the neural network based on bit widths of the input data values and corresponding weight values, the processor selects the bit width P during training. The processor adjusts the magnitudes of the weight values during iterative stages of training the node such that an L1 norm value of the weight values of the node does not exceed a corresponding weight magnitude limit.

  • Patent number: 11994939
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method for generating remedy recommendations for power and performance issues within semiconductor software and hardware. For example, the disclosed systems and methods can apply a rule-based model to telemetry data to generate rule-based root-cause outputs as well as telemetry-based unknown outputs. The disclosed systems and methods can further apply a root-cause machine learning model to the telemetry-based unknown outputs to analyze deep and complex failure patterns with the telemetry-based unknown outputs to ultimately generate one or more root-cause remedy recommendations that are specific to the identified failure and the client computing device that is experiencing that failure.

  • Publication number: 20240095517
    Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for processing data using a neural network. Activations from a previous layer of the neural network are received by a layer of the neural network. Weighted values, to be applied to values of elements of the activations, are determined based on a spatial correlation of the elements and a task error output by the layer. The weighted values are applied to the values of the elements and a combined error is determined based on the task error and the spatial correlation.

  • Patent number: 11868759
    Abstract: Shader source code performance prediction is described. In accordance with the described techniques, an update to shader source code for implementing a shader is received. A prediction of performance of the shader on a processing unit is generated based on the update to the shader source code. Feedback about the update is output. The feedback includes the prediction of performance of the shader. In one or more implementations, generating the prediction of performance of the shader includes compiling the shader source code with the update to generate a representation of the shader, inputting the representation of the shader to one or more machine learning models, and receiving the prediction of performance of the shader as an output from the one or more machine learning models.
