  • Publication number: 20220382794
    Abstract: Embodiments provide an apparatus, method and computer program product for generating validated attribute descriptors related to natural language processing. Natural language processing is performed to determine a set of attribute descriptors associated with textual information. An attribute descriptor cleaning process is then performed with respect to the set of attribute descriptors to determine a subset of attribute descriptors. Each attribute descriptor of the subset of attribute descriptors is compared to an attribute descriptor record to identify one or more common attribute descriptors. Additionally, a validated list of attribute descriptors is generated by removing the one or more common attribute descriptors from the subset of attribute descriptors.

  • Patent number: 11423283
    Abstract: Techniques for model adaptation are described. For example, a method of receiving a call to provide either a model variant or a model variant profile of a deep learning model, the call including desired performance of the deep learning model, a deep learning model identifier, and current edge device characteristics; comparing the received current edge device characteristics to available model variants and profiles based on the desired performance of the deep learning model to generate or select a model variant or profile, the available model variants and profiles determined by the model identifier; and sending the generated or selected model variant or profile to the edge device to use in inference is detailed.

  • Patent number: 11392631
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a computer-executable method, computer system and non-transitory computer-readable medium for programmatically processing text information to generate attribute descriptors contained therein. The method includes programmatically accessing, via a network device, a textual unit, the textual unit associated with a commercial entity or a commercial object. The method also includes executing a text processing engine to programmatically generate an attribute descriptor from the textual unit. The method further includes storing, on a non-transitory computer-readable storage device, the attribute descriptor in association with identification of the commercial entity or the commercial object.

  • Publication number: 20210256574
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a computer-executable method, computer system and non-transitory computer-readable medium for programmatically analyzing a consumer review. The method includes programmatically accessing, via a network device, one or more consumer reviews for a commercial entity or a commercial object. The method also includes executing a consumer review processing engine to programmatically identify an attribute descriptor in the one or more consumer reviews, and executing the consumer review processing engine to programmatically generate a sentiment score associated with the one or more consumer reviews. The method further includes storing, on a non-transitory computer-readable storage device, the attribute descriptor and the sentiment score in association with the commercial entity or the commercial object.

  • Patent number: 10949252
    Abstract: Techniques for benchmarking a machine learning model/algorithm are described. For example, in some instances a method includes generating an execution plan for benchmarking of at least one task corresponding to a machine learning model based on an identified machine learning model, identified training data, and at least one objective for the benchmarking job; receiving execution statistics about the execution of the task as a part of the benchmarking job according to the execution plan; and updating the execution plan based at least in part on the received execution statistics of the task.

  • Patent number: 10614373
    Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer readable media for an adaptive oracle-trained learning framework for automatically building and maintaining models that are developed using machine learning algorithms. In embodiments, the framework leverages at least one oracle (e.g., a crowd) for automatic generation of high-quality training data to use in deriving a model. Once a model is trained, the framework monitors the performance of the model and, in embodiments, leverages active learning and the oracle to generate feedback about the changing data for modifying training data sets while maintaining data quality to enable incremental adaptation of the model.
