  • Patent number: 12367397
    Abstract: A query-based generic end-to-end molecular optimization (“QMO”) system framework, method and computer program product for optimizing molecules, such as for accelerating drug discovery. The QMO framework decouples representation learning and guided search and applies to any plug-in encoder-decoder with continuous latent representations. QMO framework directly incorporates evaluations based on chemical modeling, analysis packages, and pre-trained machine-learned prediction models for efficient molecule optimization using a query-based guided search method based on zeroth order optimization. The QMO features efficient guided search with molecular property evaluations and constraints obtained using the predictive models and chemical modeling and analysis packages.

  • Publication number: 20250053802
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include techniques for improving the accuracy of access-limited neural network inference in low-voltage regimes. A non-limiting example method includes training a first machine learning model to perform input transformation for reducing low-voltage bit errors for a deep neural network operating in a low-voltage regime. The training includes inputting training data into the first machine learning model such that, in response, the first machine learning model produces transformed training data; inputting the transformed training data into a clean machine learning model and into perturbed machine learning models, the perturbed machine learning models being generated by applying random bit errors to the clean machine learning model; and optimizing the first machine learning model based on a comparison of output of the clean machine learning model and of the perturbed machine learning models compared to groundtruth labels for the training data.

  • Publication number: 20250046068
    Abstract: A machine learning model is trained using original source domain data through empirical risk minimization and a model sensitivity map is computed. Each sensitive frequency point on the model sensitivity map is targeted. An adversarial technique is employed to generate spectral adversarial images based on the model sensitivity map and an image amplitude spectrum is augmented. The generated spectral adversarial images are mixed with the original source domain data to finetune the machine learning model and deployment of the finetuned machine learning model is facilitated.

  • Publication number: 20240404106
    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for training a pose estimation model to determine anatomy keypoints in images. A teacher network, implementing machine learning, processes images representing anatomies to produce heatmaps representing keypoints of the anatomies. An anatomy parsing network, implementing machine learning, processes the images to produce segmentation representations labeling anatomies represented in the images. The segmentation representations from the anatomy parsing network and the heatmaps from the teacher network are concatenated to produce mixed heatmaps. A pose estimation model, implementing machine learning, is trained to process the images to output predicted heatmaps to minimize a loss function of the output predicted heatmaps from the pose estimation model and the mixed heatmaps.

  • Patent number: 12020480
    Abstract: One or more computer processors improve action recognition by removing inference introduced by visual appearances of objects within a received video segment. The one or more computer processors extract appearance information and structure information from a received video segment. The one or more computer processors calculate a factual inference (TE) for the received video segment utilizing the extracted appearance information and structure information. The one or more computer processors calculate a counterfactual debiasing inference (NDE) for the received video segment. The one or more computer processors calculate a total indirect effect (TIE) by subtracting the calculated counterfactual debiased inference from the calculated factual inference. The one or more computer processors action recognize the received video segment by selecting a classification result associated with a highest calculated TIE.
