Publication number: 20240078446Abstract: A method for generating descriptions of classification results, comprising classifying original inputs in a data set using a classifier. For one or more of the plurality of original inputs, apply an adjustment to one or more features of the original input to produce a respective adjusted input, and classify the respective adjusted input using the classifier. For one or more of the adjusted inputs, record a corresponding original input into a training set, and record information associated with the adjusted input into the training set. The method further comprises training a model based on the training set, such that the model is configured to receive an original model input and identify a hypothetical adjustment that would produce an adjusted model input that would be assigned an adjusted model classification with a different class than a class assigned to the original model input.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: Theorem Partners LLCInventors: Jonathan Lloyd BLACKMAN, Mark Andrew ELLIOT

Patent number: 11657176Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein to secure flexible access to the healthcare information resources (HIR) contained within electronic health records (EHR) systems. By managing access permissions with certified self-sovereign identities and distributed ledger techniques, HIR may be secured. Patients and other users may be registered to access a distributed ledger, such as a healthcare blockchain, employed to set, host and adjudicate permissions to access HIR. Authorized owners and/or patients with rights to their own HIR may be able to grant fine-grained and conditional access permissions to third-parties. Information transfers and transactions occurring according to these permissions may be logged within smart contracts incorporated in the healthcare blockchain.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2020Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Health Blockchain Convergence, Inc.Inventors: Douglas A.

Patent number: 11366649Abstract: A method for generating a program to run on multiple tiles. The method comprises: receiving an input graph comprising data nodes, compute vertices and edges; receiving an initial tile-mapping specifying which data nodes and vertices are allocated to which tile; and determining a subgraph of the input graph that meets one or more heuristic rules. The rules comprises: the subgraph comprises at least one data node, the subgraph spans no more than a threshold number of tiles in the initial tile-mapping, and the subgraph comprises at least a minimum number of edges outputting to one or more vertices on one or more other tiles. The method further comprises adapting the initial mapping to migrate the data nodes and any vertices of the determined subgraph to said one or more other tiles.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2020Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: GRAPHCORE LIMITEDInventors: Mark Lloyd Pupilli, David Lacey
