Abstract: A method including receiving a user input for input to a language processing machine learning model (MLM). The method also includes generating modified inputs that are based on, and semantically related to, the user input. The method also includes executing the MLM to generate model outputs of the MLM. The MLM takes as input instances of each of the modified inputs. The method also includes sampling the model outputs using a statistical sampling strategy to generate sampled model outputs. The method also includes clustering the sampled model outputs into clusters. Each cluster of the clusters represents a distinct semantic meaning of the sampled model outputs. The method also includes generating a confidence metric for the user input. The confidence metric includes a predictive entropy of the clusters. The method also includes routing the user input based on whether the confidence metric satisfies or fails to satisfy a threshold value.

Abstract: Augmented Denoising Diffusion Implicit Models (“DDIMs”) using a latent trajectory optimization process can be used for image generation and manipulation using text input and one or more source images to create an output image. Noise bias and textual bias inherent in the model representing the image and text input is corrected by correcting trajectories previously determined by the model at each step of a diffusion inversion process by iterating multiple starts the trajectories to find determine augmented trajectories that minimizes loss at each step. The trajectories can be used to determine an augmented noise vector, enabling use of an augmented DDIM and resulting in more accurate, stable, and responsive text-based image manipulation.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for model based document image enhancement. Instead of requiring paired dirty and clean images for training a model to clean document images (which may cause privacy concerns), two models are trained on the unpaired images such that only the dirty images are accessed or only the clean images are accessed at one time. One model is a first implicit model to translate the dirty images from a source space to a latent space, and the other model is a second implicit model to translate the images from the latent space to clean images in a target space. The second implicit model is trained based on translating electronic document images in the target space to the latent space. In some implementations, the implicit models are diffusion models, such as denoising diffusion implicit models based on solving ordinary differential equations.
