  • Publication number: 20200329720
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a microwave processing method for food made of flour and rice fermented with sourdough and belongs to the technical field of food processing. It comprises: adding a sourdough to the raw material to prepare a steamed cake batter; fermenting the batter under the dielectric constant of 20˜34, the loss factor of 6.3˜9.0, the moisture content of 45˜55% and the water activity of 0.920˜0.980; and using microwave heating to obtain the microwave-steamed cake. Due to the regulating effect of the sourdough fermentation on the dielectric properties of the food material, it solves the problems of hard core, textual firmness and toughness, dryness and weak flavor caused by fast and uneven microwave heating without adding food additives; meanwhile, the sourdough fermentation process is optimized and the DY and additive amount of the sourdough are controlled to obtain the microwave-steamed cake with larger specific volume, lower hardness, more fine and uniform pores and better taste.

  • Publication number: 20200302333
    Abstract: Techniques for controlling item frequency using machine learning are provides. In one technique, two prediction models are trained: one based on interaction history of multiple content items by multiple entities and the other based on predicted interaction rates and an impression count for each of multiple content items. In response to a request, a particular entity associated with the request is identified and multiple candidate content items are identified. For each identified candidate content item, the first prediction model is used to determine a predicted interaction rate, an impression count of the candidate content item is determined with respect to the particular entity, the second prediction model is used to generate an adjustment based on the impression count, and an adjusted entity interaction rate is generated based on the predicted interaction rate and the adjustment. A particular candidate content item is selected based on the generated adjusted entity interaction rates.

  • Patent number: 10762901
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose an artificial intelligence based method and apparatus for classifying a voice-recognized text. A specific embodiment of the method includes: acquiring a current interactive text of a voice query from a user; analyzing the current interactive text using a lexical analyzer to obtain a current lexical structure; determining whether the current lexical structure matches a template of a category in a classifier; and classifying, if the current lexical structure matches the template of the category in the classifier, the current interactive text corresponding to the current lexical structure into the category belonging to the matched template. The embodiment can fast classify texts, effectively reduce the magnitude of manually annotated texts, and improve the annotation efficiency in intelligent voice interaction services.

  • Patent number: 10725853
    Abstract: Some embodiments described herein are directed to memory page or bad block monitoring and retirement algorithms, systems and methods for random access memory (RAM). Reliability issues or errors can be detected for multiple memory pages using one or more retirement criterion. In some embodiments, when reliability errors are detected, it may be desired to remove such pages from operation before they create a more serious problem, such as a computer crash. Thus, bad block retirement and replacement mechanisms are described herein.

  • Publication number: 20200210908
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing dynamic job bidding optimization. During operation, the system obtains historical data containing a time series of interactions with a job. Next, the system uses the historical data to calculate an initial price of a job based on a predicted number of interactions with the job. The system then determines a first dynamic adjustment to the initial price that improves utilization of a budget for the job and a second dynamic adjustment to the initial price that improves a performance of the job. Finally, the system applies the first and second adjustments to the initial price to produce an updated price for the job and delivers the job within an online system based on the updated price.

  • Publication number: 20200202299
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing delivery-based optimizations for jobs. During operation, the system obtains historical data comprising delivery rates related to overdelivery and underdelivery of jobs with respect to fixed budgets for the jobs. Next, the system applies an optimization technique to the historical data to determine a change to an initial price for a job that improves a utilization of a fixed budget for the job. The system then applies the change to the initial price to produce an updated price for the job and delivers the job within an online system based on the updated price.

  • Patent number: 10616135
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for controlling resource usage in a computing environment. In response to receiving a content request, a set of candidate content delivery campaigns is identified. For a first candidate content delivery campaign in the set, an anticipated resource usage of a resource that is associated with the first candidate content delivery campaign is determined. The anticipated resource usage is determined based on (1) a resource reduction per event of each event in a set of detected events of a content item of the first candidate content delivery campaign and (2) a decay factor. Based on the anticipated resource usage, it is determined whether the first candidate content delivery campaign is to be removed from the set.
