Publication number: 20220019441Abstract: A hyperdimensional processing system can be configured to process hyperdimensional (HD) data, where the system can include a CPU configured to receive compiled binary executable data including CPU native instructions and hyperdimensional processing unit (HPU) native instructions, wherein the CPU is configured to store the CPU native instructions in a main memory coupled to the CPU for retrieval and execution by the CPU, the CPU further configured to forward the HPU native instructions to a HPU. The HPU can be configured to receive HPU native instructions native instructions and to store the HPU native instructions in a hyperdimensional memory coupled to the HPU for retrieval and execution by the CPU. Other aspects and embodiments according to the present invention are also disclosed herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2021Publication date: January 20, 2022Inventors: Tajana Simunic Rosing, Justin Morris, Mohsen Imani, Yeseong Kim, John Messerly, Yunhui Guo, Behnam Khaleghi, Saransh Gupta, Sahand Salamat, Joonseop Sim

Publication number: 20060200765Abstract: A document summarizer for word processors is described. In one aspect, a document is accessed for summarization. Using a phase summarizing process, a sentence-based summary of writings of the document is constructed from the writings. A file associated with the document is located. The sentence-based summary is inserted into the file such that the sentence-based summary is before an opening paragraph of the document. The file is saved to non-volatile memory.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2006Publication date: September 7, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Ronald Fein, William Dolan, John Messerly, Edward Fries, Christopher Thorpe, Shawn Cokus

Patent number: 7051024Abstract: An author-oriented document summarizer for a word processor is described. The document summarizer performs a statistical analysis to generate a list of ranked sentences for consideration in the summary. The summarizer counts how frequently content words appear in a document and produces a table correlating the content words with their corresponding frequency counts. Phrase compression techniques are used to produce more accurate counts of repeatedly used phrases. A sentence score for each sentence is derived by summing the frequency counts of the content words in a sentence and dividing that tally by the number of the content words in the sentence. The sentences are then ranked in order of their sentence scores. Concurrent with the statistical analysis, during the same pass through the document the summarizer performs a cue-phrase analysis to weed out sentences with words or phrases that have been pre-identified as potential problem phrases.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2002Date of Patent: May 23, 2006Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Ronald A.
