  • Patent number: 11321619
    Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products to facilitate state dependent calibration of qubit measurements are provided. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a state prediction component that predicts a readout state of one or more qubits of a quantum circuit.

  • Patent number: 11314728
    Abstract: A distributed database system maintains data for a logical table by storing, on a plurality of storage nodes, a collection of key-item pairs. An operation to delete a range of these items is processed by first storing, on each of the plurality of storage nodes, a tombstone record indicative of the items to be deleted. The tombstones are committed once each of the plurality of nodes has stored the tombstone. Items within the range are treated as deleted. A cleanup operation deletes items within the range and updates the tombstone.

  • Patent number: 11294986
    Abstract: Techniques regarding an iterative energy-scaled variational quantum eigensolver process are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can comprise a system, which can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The system can also comprise a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a read-out component that determines a ground state energy value of a quantum Hamiltonian by employing a variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) algorithm, wherein VQE algorithm utilizes a symmetry that emerges at an energy scale of the quantum Hamiltonian.

  • Publication number: 20220081716
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for personalized genetic testing of a subject. In some embodiments, a sequencing assay is performed on a biological sample from the subject, which then leads to genetic information related to the subject. Next, nucleic acid molecules are array-synthesized or selected based on the genetic information derived from data of the sequencing assay. At least some of the nucleic acid molecules may then be used in an assay which may provide additional information on one or more biological samples from the subject or a biological relative of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20220052016
    Abstract: An electronic component package includes a substrate and an electronic component mounted to the substrate, the electronic component including a bond pad. A first antenna terminal is electrically connected to the bond pad, the first antenna terminal being electrically connected to a second antenna terminal of the substrate. A package body encloses the electronic component, the package body having a principal surface. An antenna is formed on the principal surface by applying an electrically conductive coating. An embedded interconnect extends through the package body between the substrate and the principal surface and electrically connects the second antenna terminal to the antenna. Applying an electrically conductive coating to form the antenna is relatively simple thus minimizing the overall package manufacturing cost. Further, the antenna is relatively thin thus minimizing the overall package size.

  • Publication number: 20210357651
    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing video understanding and analysis. Sets of feature maps for high resolution images and low resolution images in a time sequence of images are combined into combined sets of feature maps each having N feature maps. A time sequence of temporally aggregated sets of feature maps is created for each combined set of feature maps by: selecting a selected combined set of feature maps corresponding to an image at time “t” in the time sequence of images; applying, by channel-wise multiplication, a feature map weighting vector to a number of combined sets of feature maps that are temporally adjacent to the selected combined set of feature maps; and summing elements of the number of combined set of feature maps into a temporally aggregated set of feature maps. The time sequence of temporally aggregated sets of feature maps is processed to perform video understanding processing.

  • Patent number: 11176439
    Abstract: Technologies for providing convolutional neural networks are described. An analysis component determines an initial convolutional layer in a network architecture of a convolutional neural network and one or more subsequent convolutional layers in the network architecture. A replacement component replaces original convolutional kernels in the initial convolutional layer with initial sparse convolutional kernels, and replaces subsequent convolutional kernels in one or more subsequent convolutional layers with complementary sparse convolutional kernels. The complementary sparse kernels have a complementary pattern with respect to sparse kernels of a previous convolutional layer. Analyzing the network architecture and a trained model of a convolutional neural network can determine the original convolutional kernels and replace those kernels with sparse kernels based on similarity and/or weight in an initial layer, with sparse complementary kernels used in subsequent layers.

  • Patent number: 11138164
    Abstract: A service implements techniques for modifying a data table stored in a key-value or non-relational database via a table-oriented schema. In some aspects, a request to modify a table-oriented schema of a table of data may be received. In response to the request, an association between a customer identifier of elements of the table and an internal identifier of elements of the table may be stored that updates a prior association between a customer identifier and an internal identifier. The table-oriented schema of the table may be modified using one or more keys that are generated using the internal identifier.

  • Patent number: 11080542
    Abstract: An image data is convolved with one or more kernels and corresponding one or more feature maps generated. Region of interest maps are extracted from the one or more feature maps, and pooled based on one or more features selected as selective features. Pooling generates a feature vector with dimensionality less than a dimensionality associated with the one or more feature maps. The feature vector is flattened and input as a layer in a neural network. The neural network outputs a classification associated with an object in the image data.
