  • Publication number: 20230316004
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for training a natural language translation model. The computer-implemented method includes: processing one or more sets of electronic parallel documents to obtain a plurality of aligned parallel sentences; creating a first training set including a subset of the plurality of aligned parallel sentences; and training the natural language translation model in a first stage using the first training set. The computer-implemented method further includes: modifying the first training set based on translation errors detected after the first stage of training; creating a second training set based on the modified first training set and at least some of the plurality of aligned parallel sentences not in the first training set; and training the natural language translation model in a second stage using the second training set so as to improve translation performance of the natural language translation model.

  • Patent number: 11258555
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide systems for processing high efficiency SIGB (HE-SIGB) symbols and extracting resource unit (RU) information in down link orthogonal frequency division multiple access (DL-OFDMA) and multi-user multiple input multiple output (DL-MUMIMO) communication. An HE-SIGB symbol is processed based on an RU size mapping table. An RU counter is used to process entries in the RU size mapping table and determine the RU size and starting tone index of the intended RU. The RU parameters extracted from the HE-SIGB symbol are used to decode data symbols in the DL-OFDMA or DL-MUMIMO packet. Pilot tone indices of the intended User block and adjacent pilot tone indices are determined for improved carrier phase error estimation.
