Publication number: 20230394333Abstract: A knowledge injection model for generative commonsense reasoning. In examples, an encoder-decoder model is used to generate a model output (204) a plausible description for a set of concepts. A prototype (218) is generated from an in-domain or out-of-domain knowledge corpus, which is further used as input (202) for the encoder-decoder model. Concept input tokens and prototype input tokens are scaled to limit potential skew that may be introduced by the prototype (218). Additionally, position indicators are generated for each input token, which indicate the relative position each respective input token as compared to other input tokens. As such, when decoding the scaled encoded input tokens, the decoder (214) may be more attuned to the scenario bias that is introduced by the prototype (218) when generating a model output (204). Thus, the encoder-decoder model need not rely solely on the set of concepts when generating the model output (204).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2020Publication date: December 7, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jian JIAO, Yeyun GONG, Nan DUAN, Yameng HUANG, Ruofei ZHANG, Ming ZHOU

Publication number: 20230385315Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a keyword sequence from an input query. A first text sequence corresponding to an input query may be received and encoded into a source sequence representation using an encoder of a machine learning model. A keyword sentence may then be generated from the source sequence representation using a decoder of the machine learning model. The decoder may generate a modified generation score for a plurality of prediction tokens, wherein the modified generation score is based on the respective prediction token generation score and a maximum generation score for a suffix of each prediction token. The decoder may then select the prediction token of the plurality of prediction tokens based on the modified generation score, and add the selected prediction token to the previously decoded partial hypothesis provided by the decoder.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2020Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jian JIAO, Yeyun GONG, Nan DUAN, Ruofei ZHANG, Ming ZHOU

Publication number: 20230114440Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices supporting configurable resistivities for lines in a memory device, such as access lines in a memory array are described. For example, metal lines at different levels of a memory device may be oxidized to different extents in order for the lines at different levels of the memory device to have different resistivities. This may allow the resistivity of lines to be tuned on a level-by-level basis without altering the fabrication techniques and related parameters used to initially form the lines at the different levels, which may have benefits related to at least reduced cost and complexity. Lines may be oxidized to a controlled extent using either a dry or wet process.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Inventors: Koushik Banerjee, Isaiah O.

Publication number: 20230081624Abstract: A training technique trains a neural network having sparsely-activated sub-networks. It does so by processing plural batches of training data in two respective passes of the neural network, yielding first prediction information and second prediction information. For each batch, the technique randomly assigns different sub-networks in the first and second passes of the neural network to process the batch. Over the course of training, the technique attempts to minimize loss information, which describes the difference between the first prediction information and ground-truth information, and the difference between the second prediction information and the ground-truth information. Simultaneously, the technique attempts to minimize divergence information, which describes the divergence of the first prediction information from the second prediction information (and vice versa).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2021Publication date: March 16, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jian JIAO, Xiaodong LIU, Jianfeng GAO, Ruofei ZHANG

Publication number: 20230004588Abstract: A training system produces a resource-efficient machine-trained model via a training architecture that employs plural processing paths. Some of the processing paths incorporate the use of auxiliary information that imparts external knowledge about source items being processed. The training architecture also employs contrastive learning that operates at different respective levels within the training architecture. For instance, the training architecture uses encoder-level contrastive learning to compare output information generated by different encoders within the training architecture. The training architecture uses decoder-level contrastive learning to compare output information produced by different decoders within the training architecture. An inference-stage system performs an application task using the model produced by the training system.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2021Publication date: January 5, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jian JIAO, Yeyun GONG, Nan DUAN, Ruofei ZHANG

Patent number: 11461415Abstract: A technique is described herein for processing a given query item in a latency-efficient and resource-efficient manner. The technique uses a first transformer-based encoder to transform the given query item into an encoded query item. In one case, the given query item is an expression that includes one or more query-expression linguistic tokens. The technique includes a second transformer-based encoder for transforming a given target item into an encoded target item. The given target item may likewise correspond to an expression that includes one or more target-expression linguistic tokens. A similarity-assessing mechanism then assesses the semantic similarity between the given query item and the given target item based on the encoded query item and the encoded target item. Each transformer-based encoder uses one or more self-attention mechanisms. The second transformer-based encoder can optionally perform its work in an offline manner, prior to receipt of the given query item.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Wenhao Lu, Jian Jiao, Ruofei Zhang
