  • Publication number: 20210241033
    Abstract: There is provided computer implemented method for detecting and reducing or removing bias for generating a machine learning model, comprising: prior to generating the machine learning model: receiving a training dataset, comprising target inputs, each comprising parameters and labelled with a corresponding target output, wherein at least one of the parameters of at least of the target inputs comprises a sensitive parameter indicative of the corresponding target input assigned to a sensitive group that is potentially biased against other target inputs that are excluded from the sensitive group, analyzing the training dataset to identify target inputs affected by label bias when a statistically significant difference is detected between target inputs assigned to the sensitive group and target inputs excluded from the sensitive group, correcting labels of the target inputs affected by label bias, and generating the machine learning model using the corrected labels.

  • Publication number: 20200177433
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for generating a quadrature modulated signal for transmission in an electronic device. Samples are obtained from a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signal at a predefined sampling rate to generate a signal spectrum. The samples are interpolated to move the signal spectrum on a frequency axis. Modulation is performed on the interpolated samples based on a digital carrier frequency to move the signal spectrum on the frequency axis. Digital to analog conversion and analog filtering are performed on the modulated samples in a real part of the signal spectrum to generate a quadrature modulated signal for transmission.

  • Patent number: 10189339
    Abstract: A tonneau cover system includes a plurality of panels coupled to first and second side rails. The panels include a first panel, a second panel, a third panel, and a spacer bar with the spacer bar fixed to the side rails. The first panel pivots relative to the spacer while the spacer remains fixed to the side rails. The third panel pivots relative to the second panel to permit the third panel to be located over the second panel while the spacer remains fixed to the side rails to define an intermediate folded position. The cover further includes a hinge assembly mounted between the second panel and the spacer to enable the second and third panels to pivot relative to the spacer as a unit from the intermediate position to a final position located at least over the spacer bar while the spacer bar remains fixed to the side rails.
