  • Patent number: 11947914
    Abstract: In embodiments of the present disclosure, there is provided an approach for fact checking based on semantic graphs. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, after obtaining a text to be fact checked, a plurality of evidence sentences related to the text are retrieved from an evidence database. Then, semantic graphs of the text and the evidence sentences are constructed based on the semantic analysis, and a veracity of a statement in the text can be determined based on the semantic graphs. Embodiments of the present disclosure propose a graph-based reasoning approach for fact checking, and use the constructed semantic graphs to facilitate verification of the truthfulness of the text, thereby improving the accuracy for fact checking.

  • Publication number: 20230105998
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating embeddings from molecular graphs, which may be used for classification of candidate molecules. A physical model is used to generate a set of task-relevant feature vectors, representing local physical features of the molecular graph. A trained embedding generator is used to generate a set of task-relevant structural embeddings representing connectivity among the set of vertices and task-relevant features of the set of vertices. The task-relevant feature vectors are combined with the task-relevant structural embeddings and provided as input to a trained classifier. The trained classifier generates a predicted class label representing a classification of the candidate molecule.

  • Patent number: 11328506
    Abstract: In a crop identification method, multi-temporal sample remote sensing images labeled with first planting blocks of a specific crop are acquired. NDVI data of the sample remote sensing images are calculated. Noise of the NDVI data is reduced. A first multivariate Gaussian model is fitted based on de-noised NDVI data of the sample remote sensing image. Multi-temporal target remote sensing images are acquired. An NDVI time series of each pixel in the target remote sensing image is constructed. The NDVI time series is input to the first multivariate Gaussian model to obtain a likelihood value of each pixel displaying the specific crop in the remote sensing images. Second planting blocks of the specific crop in the target remote sensing images are determined accordingly. An accurate and robust identification result is thereby achieved.

  • Patent number: 10187208
    Abstract: A processor includes a decode unit to decode an instruction. The instruction indicates a first 64-bit source operand having a first 64-bit value, indicates a second 64-bit source operand having a second 64-bit value, indicates a third 64-bit source operand having a third 64-bit value, and indicates a fourth 64-bit source operand having a fourth 64-bit value. An execution unit is coupled with the decode unit. The execution unit is operable, in response to the instruction, to store a result. The result includes the first 64-bit value multiplied by the second 64-bit value added to the third 64-bit value added to the fourth 64-bit value. The execution unit may store a 64-bit least significant half of the result in a first 64-bit destination operand indicated by the instruction, and store a 64-bit most significant half of the result in a second 64-bit destination operand indicated by the instruction.

  • Patent number: 9083378
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed dynamic compression/decompression (codec) configuration. In general, a device may include a codec configuration module to determine a configuration for use by the codec based on configuration criteria. The configuration criteria may include, for example, data characteristic information, system condition information and user expectation information. The configuration information may be used to select a codec configuration from one or more available codec configurations. For example, a benchmark module also in the device may determine the available codec configurations. After a codec configuration has been selected, it may be set in the codec. It may also be possible for the codec configuration module to monitor for changes in device operation (e.g., changes in the configuration criteria) and to update the codec configuration based on the monitored changes.
