  • Publication number: 20220165430
    Abstract: A relevance system ranks a set of medical studies based on a relevance of each medical study in the set of medical studies to a patient profile. The relevance system includes a relevance model. The relevance model determines a relevance of each medical study to the patient profile based on a semantic relationship score, a concept relationship score, and a term-occurrence score. The semantic relationship score is a measure of a similarity in semantic meaning of a medical study and a patient profile. The concept relationship score is a measure of the closeness of medical concepts in a medical study to medical concepts in a patient profile. The term-occurrence score is a measure of occurrences of terms in a medical study that also appear in a patient profile and the statistical significances of the terms.

  • Publication number: 20210203130
    Abstract: A method (900) includes delivering a first bias current (IGAIN) to an anode of a gain-section diode (590a) and delivering a second bias current (IPH) to an anode of a phase-section diode (590b). The method also includes receiving a burst mode signal (514) indicative of a burst-on state or a burst-on state, and sinking a first sink current (ISINK) away from the first bias current when the burst mode signal is indicative of the burst-off state. When the burst mode signal transitions to be indicative of the burst-on state from the burst-off state, the method also includes sinking a second sink current away from the second bias current at the anode of the phase-section diode and ceasing the sinking of the first sink current away from the first bias current at the anode of the gain section diode.

  • Publication number: 20210203129
    Abstract: A method (900) includes a gain current (IGAIN) to an anode of a gain-section diode (D0) disposed on a shared substrate of a tunable laser (310), delivering a modulation signal to an anode of an Electro-absorption section diode (D2) disposed on the shared substrate of the tunable laser, and receiving a burst mode signal (330) indicative of a burst-on state or a burst-off state. When the burst mode signal is indicative of the burst-off state, the method includes sinking a sink current (ISINK) away from the gain current at the anode of the gain-section diode. When the burst mode signal transitions to be indicative of the burst-on state from the burst-off state, the method includes ceasing the sinking of the sink current away from the gain current and delivering an overshoot current (IOVER) to the anode of the gain-section diode.

  • Patent number: 10992387
    Abstract: A method of combining optical signals from a plurality of optical fibers into a single optical signal includes receiving, at corresponding optical-signal receivers optically coupled to corresponding trunk fibers, respective optical signals. The method further includes determining, by the corresponding optical-signal receivers, when each respective optical signal is received. When the respective optical signal is received, the method includes performing the following steps: converting, by the corresponding optical-signal receiver, the respective optical signal to a corresponding electrical signal; transmitting, by the corresponding optical-signal receiver, the corresponding electrical signal to a corresponding input channel of an electrical-multiplexing device; and configuring the electrical-multiplexing device to select the corresponding input channel.

  • Patent number: 10929456
    Abstract: The improved exercise of artificial intelligence by systematically refining and semantically indexing the output from AI models, so that the semantic index is highly relevant. To do this, the computing system obtains results of an input data set being applied to an AI model. The computing system then determines a refinement to apply to the obtained results. This determination may be based on one or more characteristics of the AI model and/or input data set. The determination may also be based on hints associated with that AI model, and/or learned behavior regarding how that AI model is typically used. The obtained results are then refined using the determined refinement. It is then this more relevant refined results that are semantically indexed to generate the semantic index. Thus, the semantic index represents, the more useful output from an AI model, which is semantically exposed so as to provide meaning.

  • Publication number: 20200159860
    Abstract: Applying AI models to a search using a search engine for a user. A method includes receiving user search input at a search engine user interface. The search input is used with the search engine to obtain first search results. One or more AI models are applied to the first search results to obtain additional search data. The additional search data is searched to identify additional search results. Using the additional search results, a subset of second search results are identified from the first search results while filtering out other search results from the first search results. At least a portion of the second search results are provided to the user in the user interface while preventing the other search results that were filtered from being displayed in the user interface, such that a user at the user interface has the second search results returned as results.
