  • Patent number: 11921824
    Abstract: Techniques are generally described for fusing sensor data of different modalities using a transformer. In various examples, first sensor data may be received from a first sensor and second sensor data may be received from a second sensor. A first feature representation of the first sensor data may be generated using a first machine learning model and a second feature representation of the second sensor data may be generated using a second machine learning model. In some examples, a modified first feature representation of the first sensor data may be generated based at least in part on a self-attention mechanism of a transformer encoder. The modified first feature representation may be generated based at least in part on the first feature representation and the second feature representation. A computer vision task may be performed using the modified first feature representation.

  • Patent number: 9029413
    Abstract: Alterations of certain metabolite concentrations and fluxes that occur in response to viral infection are described. Host cell enzymes in the involved metabolic pathways are selected as targets for intervention; i.e., to restore metabolic flux to disadvantage viral replication, or to further derange metabolic flux resulting in “suicide” of viral-infected cells (but not uninfected cells) to limit viral propagation. While any of the enzymes in the relevant metabolic pathway can be selected, pivotal enzymes at key control points in these metabolic pathways are preferred as candidate antiviral drug targets. Inhibitors of these enzymes are used to reverse, or redirect, the effects of the viral infection. Drug candidates are tested for antiviral activity using screening assays in vitro and host cells, and in animal models. Animal models are then used to test efficacy of candidate compounds in preventing and treating viral infections. Antiviral activity of enzyme inhibitors is demonstrated.
