  • Publication number: 20220327363
    Abstract: A neural network training method in the artificial intelligence field includes: inputting training data into a neural network; determining a first input space of a second target layer in the neural network based on a first output space of a first target layer in the neural network; and inputting a feature vector in the first input space into the second target layer, where a capability of fitting random noise by the neural network when the feature vector in the first input space is input into the second target layer is lower than a capability of fitting the random noise by using an output space that is in the neural network and that exists when a feature vector in the first output space is input into the second target layer. This application helps avoid an overfitting phenomenon that occurs when the neural network processes an image, text, or speech.

  • Patent number: 11470224
    Abstract: A method is described in which image data of an image to be printed is obtained wherein the image data includes data of each colorant to be printed. The image data of each colorant to be printed is analysed to detect areas of the image in which dye-enriched colorant will occur during printing. The image data is modified to compensate for over-saturation due to the dye-enriched colorant in the detected areas and the image is printed based on the modified image data.

  • Publication number: 20220214894
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a command execution method and apparatus, a terminal, and a server related speech recognition and natural language processing. In the command execution method, during an interaction between a terminal and a user, a server configured to execute a user command or the terminal may store slots and GUI information corresponding to the slots. When the filling information of the slots configured for the user command is missing, the server configured to execute the user command may obtain the missing filling information of the slots from the stored GUI information, to avoid multiple interactions between the user and the terminal. The interaction between the user and the terminal is made more intelligent, thus improving command execution efficiency.
