Patent number: 11687795Abstract: A hybrid knowledge representation is searched for a machine learning component corresponding to a search query. The hybrid knowledge representation may be structured as nodes representing machine learning workflow components and edges (e.g., links) connecting the nodes based on relationships between the nodes. Responsive to finding the machine learning component in the hybrid knowledge representation, the machine learning component is returned. Responsive to not finding the machine learning component in the hybrid knowledge representation, the hybrid knowledge representation is searched for machine learning model fragments associated with building the machine learning component, generating a new machine learning component by combining the machine learning model fragments and returning the new machine learning component.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2019Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Marcio Ferreira Moreno, Daniel Salles Civitarese, Lucas Correia Villa Real, Rafael Rossi de Mello Brandao, Renato Fontoura de Gusmao Cerqueira

Patent number: 11605202Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method of generating a pathway recommendation. The computer-implemented method includes using a processor system to generate an intermediate three-dimensional (3D) virtual reality (VR) environment of a target environment. A machine learning algorithm is used to perform a machine learning task on the intermediate 3D VR environment to generate machine learning task results including predicted features of interest (FOI) and FOI annotations for the intermediate 3D VR environment. The processor system is used to generate, based at least in part on the machine learning task results, the pathway recommendation configured to assist a user with navigating and interpreting a 3D VR environment including the intermediate 3D VR environment having the pathway recommendation.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2020Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Wallas Henrique Sousa Dos Santos, Emilio Ashton Vital Brazil, Vagner Figueredo de Santana, Marcio Ferreira Moreno, Renato Fontoura de Gusmao Cerqueira

MAPPING APPLICATION OF MACHINE LEARNING MODELS TO ANSWER QUERIES ACCORDING TO SEMANTIC SPECIFICATION
Publication number: 20230016157Abstract: Automatically mapping and combining the application of machine learning models to answer queries according to semantic specification. A query is parsed to extract keywords from the query and to contextualize the query. Based on the keywords, machine learning models are selected that process concepts associated with the keywords. The machine learning models are sorted according to the contextualization of the query. The machine learning models are run on multimodal data according to a sorted order, where data resulting from an output of one of the machine learning models is used as input to another one of the machine learning models. A query result is output based on a result from running the machine learning models.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2021Publication date: January 19, 2023Inventors: Marcio Ferreira Moreno, Guilherme Augusto Ferreira Lima, Rafael Rossi de Mello Brandao -
