  • Patent number: 11989628
    Abstract: Machine teaching in an embodiment can include receiving a user annotated concept for a given image in given context. The given image can be broken into parts and classified. Relationships can be determined associated with the parts. The created relationships can be stored along with the user annotated concept in a knowledge base. One or more similar images can be annotated using the parts and relationships. A second image associated the given context can be retrieved, decomposed into parts. The parts can be classified. Relationships can be determined associated with the second image's parts. Classifications and relationships associated with the second image's parts can be compared with classifications and relationships associated with the given image's parts. Based on comparing, the second image can be annotated with the user annotated concept for the given image.

  • Patent number: 11048877
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for constructing an ontology includes using a chatbot program to elicit an utterance from a user. An utterance is received from the user. The received utterance is parsed to detect a concept/property/relationship therein. It is determined whether the identified concept/property/relationship is represented within an ontology and the identified concept/property/relationship is added to the ontology when it is determined that the it is not present therein. A response to the received utterance is generated using the ontology. The generated response is presented to the user using the chatbot.

  • Patent number: 10958531
    Abstract: Sensor data is detected from at least one sensor selected and installed for detecting operating conditions of at least one equipment. The sensor data includes an operating condition of at least one equipment. The sensor is selected dependent on indications of a user restriction and a predictive model. A sensor data signal is generated dependent on the sensor data. The sensor data signal is transmitted to a network device for collecting the sensor data and transforming the collected sensor data into a formatted transmission signal having a format for transmission over a network to a network server. The network server receives the formatted transmission signal for performing on-demand service of at least one of analysis, reporting and visualization dependent on the operating condition.
