Abstract: A computer implemented method identifies guidelines through use of a neural network by a remote guideline server. A client computer transmits instructions to the remote guideline server to retrieve and evaluate multiple candidate guidelines. The remote guideline server utilizes a neural network to identify a string of terms found in each of the multiple candidate guidelines that match one or more strings of terms from a model guideline; to identify a semantic concept of each of the multiple candidate guidelines that matches one or more semantic concepts from the model guideline; and to identify a structural pattern of each of the multiple candidate guidelines that matches one or more structural patterns of the model guideline. The candidate guidelines that match the model guideline are then sent from the remote guideline server to the client computer.

Abstract: A method is provided for data matching between a set of source data structures and a set of target data structures. The method includes obtaining, using a processor device configured to perform machine learning, source to target matching results with matching scores, based on the sets of source and target data structures. The method further includes calculating, by the processor device, context information for data structure pairs based on a structure similarity and an ontology similarity between constituent data structures thereof. Each of data structure pairs include as the constituent data structures a respective source data structure and a respective target data structure from the sets of source and target data structures. The method also includes updating, by the processor device, the matching scores based on the context information. The method additionally includes controlling, by the processor device, a hardware device responsive to at least one updated matching score.

Abstract: Techniques for generating a natural language question template for an artificial intelligence question and answer (QA) system are disclosed. A graph database query relating to a QA system is parsed using a predefined schema. The parsing includes extracting a first plurality of values from the graph database query relating to a where clause in the graph database query, extracting a second plurality of values from the graph database query relating to a return clause in the graph database query, identifying a QA template rule relating to the graph database query, based on a match clause in the graph database query. A natural language question template is generated based on the first plurality of values, the second plurality of values, and the identified QA template rule. The natural language question template is suitable for use by the QA system as part of generating a response to a natural language question.

The positioning guidance method includes: obtaining, via an image capturing unit, an oral image; obtaining, via a processor, a position of a candidate tooth according to the contour of a plurality of teeth in the oral image; obtaining, via the processor, a bracket setting position corresponding to the candidate tooth by accessing dental model information from a storage device according to the position of the candidate tooth; obtaining, via the processor, a bracket image corresponding to a bracket from the oral image; and displaying, via the processor, guidance indication on a display unit according to a bracket position corresponding to the bracket image and the bracket setting position.

Abstract: A computerized system is disclosed. The computerized system may include one or more processors configured to perform the operations stored in a memory. The operations may include receiving a first circuit design pattern including a DRC violation and generating a first pattern matrix based on the first circuit design pattern, and updating the first circuit design pattern, based on the first pattern matrix, to fix the DRC violation. The operations may also include determining a possibility of a DRC violation-free first circuit design pattern corresponding to the first pattern matrix, and generating a first target label specifying the fixability corresponding to the first pattern matrix based on the determined possibility of the DRC violation-free first circuit design pattern. The first pattern matrix and the first target label may be used as training data to train a machine-learning model to predict fixability of the DRC violation.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for generating medical records from a doctor-patient dialogue are provided. A main content portion of a written doctor-patient conversation is identified. The main content portion of the conversation is extracted from the conversation. The main content of the conversation is divided into sections according to a pre-defined set of sections, and, based on the sections and their respective content, a medical record is generated according to a pre-defined template. The pre-defined template is one of a hard medical record format or a soft medical record format.

Abstract: Method and apparatus are presented for receiving a medical or medical condition related input term or phrase in a source language, and translating the term or phrase from the source language into at least one target language to obtain a set of translated terms of the input term. For each translated term in the set of translations, the method and apparatus further translate the set of translations back into the source language to obtain an output list of standard versions of the input term, scoring each entry of the output list as to probability of being the most standard version of the input term, and providing the entry of the output list that has the highest score to a user.
