  • Publication number: 20200251182
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for adapting machine learning, redescription, and computational homology techniques to the identification of pathogenic pathways. A non-limiting example of the computer-implemented method includes receiving genetic and biological data and generating a data matrix based on the data. The data matrix can include one or more features, and each feature can be associated with a known feature value. A collection of sets of features representing pathways, genes, or a genetic combination of genotype values can be determined. The method also includes determining a first prediction for a feature value of a selected feature to be predicted in the collection, permuting one or more rows of the data matrix, and recalculating a second prediction for the feature value based on the permutation. A prediction score can be determined based on the first prediction, the second prediction, and a known feature value.

  • Patent number: 9998052
    Abstract: The magnetic pole position of a rotary electric machine is electrically derived accurately by reducing a voltage error due to a dead time while suppressing the influence on the operation efficiency of the rotary electric machine. A control device performs dead-time compensation, and performs current feedback control in a d-q-axis vector coordinate system using a magnetic pole position computed on the basis of an induced voltage produced by rotation of a rotor or on the basis of a response component to a high-frequency observation signal applied to the rotary electric machine. In the case where the rotary electric machine is controlled by deciding current commands Id*, Iq* in the d-q-axis vector coordinate system, the rotary electric machine control device controls the rotary electric machine such that the magnitude of an armature current Ia becomes equal to or more than a lower-limit current Ia_min prescribed in advance.
