Patent number: 11977625Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product to defend learning models that are vulnerable to adversarial example attack. It is assumed that data (a “dataset”) is available in multiple modalities (e.g., text and images, audio and images in video, etc.). The defense approach herein is premised on the recognition that the correlations between the different modalities for the same entity can be exploited to defend against such attacks, as it is not realistic for an adversary to attack multiple modalities. To this end, according to this technique, adversarial samples are identified and rejected if the features from one (the attacked) modality are determined to be sufficiently far away from those of another un-attacked modality for the same entity. In other words, the approach herein leverages the consistency between multiple modalities in the data to defend against adversarial attacks on one modality.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2023Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Ian Michael Molloy, Youngja Park, Taesung Lee, Wenjie Wang

Patent number: 11960459Abstract: Systems and methods are described for merging customer profiles, such as may be implemented by a computer-implemented contact center service. In some aspects, a subset of profiles may be determined that satisfy merging criteria, where individual profiles include a plurality of data fields. At least one value in a first data field that conflicts between at least two profiles may be identified. Next a merged value may be selected for the first data field based on data deduplication criteria, where the data deduplication criteria includes at least one indicator of accuracy of values of the plurality of data fields. As a result of a determination that at least the subset of profiles of the group of profiles meet the merging criteria, at least the subset of profiles may be combined into a combined profile using the merged value.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jan Henrik Jonsson, Shadie Hijazi, Davor Golac, Kuangyou Yao, Yang Song, Shobhit Gupta, Ian James Boetius MacClancy, Lanxin Zhang, Hongtao Liu, Austin M Nevins, Amy Lee, Meng Xiao Wang, Blake Stephens

Publication number: 20240120415Abstract: Technologies for a field effect transistor (FET) with a ferroelectric gate dielectric are disclosed. In an illustrative embodiment, a perovskite stack is grown on a buffer layer as part of manufacturing a transistor. The perovskite stack includes one or more doped semiconductor layers alternating with other lattice-matched layers. Growing the doped semiconductor layers on lattice-matched layers can improve the quality of the doped semiconductor layers. The lattice-matched layers can be etched away, leaving the doped semiconductor layers as fins for a ribbon FET. A ferroelectric layer can be conformally grown on the fins, creating a high-quality ferroelectric layer above and below the fins. A gate can then be grown on the ferroelectric layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2022Publication date: April 11, 2024Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Scott B.

Publication number: 20240113220Abstract: Technologies for a transistor with a thin-film ferroelectric gate dielectric are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a transistor has a thin layer of scandium aluminum nitride (ScxAl1-xN) ferroelectric gate dielectric. The channel of the transistor may be, e.g., gallium nitride or molybdenum disulfide. In one embodiment, the ferroelectric polarization changes when voltage is applied and removed from a gate electrode, facilitating switching of the transistor at a lower applied voltage. In another embodiment, the ferroelectric polarization of a gate dielectric of a transistor changes when the voltage is past a positive threshold value or a negative threshold value. Such a transistor can be used as a one-transistor memory cell.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2022Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Arnab Sen Gupta, Ian Alexander Young, Dmitri Evgenievich Nikonov, Marko Radosavljevic, Matthew V.
