  • Publication number: 20240134599
    Abstract: Provided is a method for normalizing embeddings for cross-embedding alignment. The method may include applying mean centering to the at least one embedding set, applying spectral normalization to the at least one embedding set, and/or applying length normalization to the at least one embedding set. Spectral normalization may include decomposing the at least one embedding set, determining an average singular value of the at least one embedding set, determining a respective substitute singular value for each respective singular value of a diagonal matrix, and/or replacing the at least one embedding set with a product of the at least one embedding set, a right singular vector, and an inverse of the substitute diagonal matrix. The mean centering, spectral normalization, and/or length normalization may be iteratively repeated for a configurable number of iterations. A system and computer program product are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20240135625
    Abstract: Data structures, methods and tiling engines for storing tiling data in memory wherein the tiles are grouped into tile groups and the primitives are grouped into primitive blocks. The methods include, for each tile group: determining, for each tile in the tile group, which primitives of each primitive block intersect that tile; storing in memory a variable length control data block for each primitive block that comprises at least one primitive that intersects at least one tile of the tile group; and storing in memory a control stream comprising a fixed sized primitive block entry for each primitive block that comprises at least one primitive that intersects at least one tile of the tile group, each primitive block entry identifying a location in memory of the control data block for the corresponding primitive block. Each primitive block entry may comprise valid tile information identifying which tiles of the tile group are valid for the corresponding primitive block.

  • Patent number: 11966832
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a first data set comprising embeddings of first and second types, generating a fixed adjacency matrix from the first dataset, and applying a first stochastic binary mask to the fixed adjacency matrix to obtain a first subgraph of the fixed adjacency matrix. The method also includes processing the first subgraph through a first layer of a graph convolutional network (GCN) to obtain a first embedding matrix, and applying a second stochastic binary mask to the fixed adjacency matrix to obtain a second subgraph of the fixed adjacency matrix. The method includes processing the first embedding matrix and the second subgraph through a second layer of the GCN to obtain a second embedding matrix, and then determining a plurality of gradients of a loss function, and modifying the first stochastic binary mask and the second stochastic binary mask using at least one of the plurality of gradients.

  • Publication number: 20240116133
    Abstract: Systems and methods determine alignment between a wire and a laser beam in laser joining. A system for checking alignment of a wire relative to a beam of a laser includes a controller configured to align, by tooling, the beam with a sensor system. A laser generates the beam across the wire, with the beam directed to the sensor system. The sensor system measures light intensity of the beam. A processor computes a feature parameter representative of an alignment between the wire and the beam. The processor determines whether the feature parameter is within the process specifications.

  • Publication number: 20240104394
    Abstract: Provided are computing systems, methods, and platforms that automatically produce production-ready machine learning models and deployment pipelines from minimal input information such as a raw training dataset. In particular, one example computing system can import a training dataset associated with a user. The computing system can execute an origination machine learning pipeline to perform a model architecture search that selects and trains a machine learning model for the training dataset. Execution of the origination machine learning pipeline can also result in generation of a deployment machine learning pipeline configured to enable deployment of the machine learning model (e.g., running the machine learning model to produce inferences and/or optionally other tasks such as re-training and/or re-tuning the model).
