Patent number: 11501114Abstract: The generating of actionable recommendations for tuning model metrics of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system includes partitioning a key performance indicator (KPI) range associated with a target system into a plurality of buckets. Log data including at least one KPI of the target system and one or more AI model metrics is partitioned and distributed across the plurality of buckets. For each bucket, an aggregate value of the one or more AI model metrics across the log data is computed and weighted according to the volume of log data in that bucket. A correlation factor between the aggregate value and a representative KPI value for each bucket is determined. A model tuning recommendation to increase ranking of the AI model metrics according to the determined correlation factor is provided to an output device and/or to the AI system for updating the one or more AI model.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2019Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Matthew Arnold, Evelyn Duesterwald, Darrell Reimer, Michael Desmond, Harold Leon Ossher, Robert Yates

Patent number: 10628561Abstract: A technique for enabling nominal flow of an executable file on a client is described. The executable file comprises executable code lacking at least one nominal constant, wherein only the nominal constant enables the nominal flow of the executable file and wherein a server has access to the at least one nominal constant. In a method aspect performed by the client, the method comprises retrieving hardware information of the client, wherein the hardware information is at least substantially unique. The method further comprises transmitting one of the hardware information and information derived therefrom to a server and, in turn, receiving at least one constant that has been transformed based on one of the hardware information and the information derived therefrom. The client then performs, using one of the hardware information and the information derived therefrom, an inverse transformation on the at least one transformed constant to recover the nominal constant.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2018Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: DENUVO GMBHInventors: Christopher Gabler, Robert Yates, Leo Rauch, Matthias Moninger
