    Abstract: First event data, indicative of a first activity on a computer network and second event data indicative of a second activity on the computer network, is received. A first machine learning anomaly detection model is applied to the first event data, by a real-time analysis engine operated by the threat indicator detection system in real time, to detect first anomaly data. A second machine learning anomaly detection model is applied to the first anomaly data and the second event data, by a batch analysis engine operated by the threat indicator detection system in a batch mode, to detect second anomaly data. A third anomaly is detected using an anomaly detection rule. The threat indictor system processes the first anomaly data, the second anomaly data, and the third anomaly data using a threat indicator model to identify a threat indicator associated with a potential security threat to the computer network.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for reinforcement learning. The embodiments described herein apply meta-learning (and in particular, meta-gradient reinforcement learning) to learn an optimum return function G so that the training of the system is improved. This provides a more effective and efficient means of training a reinforcement learning system as the system is able to converge on an optimum set of one or more policy parameters ? more quickly by training the return function G as it goes. In particular, the return function G is made dependent on the one or more policy parameters ? and a meta-objective function J? is used that is differentiated with respect to the one or more return parameters ? to improve the training of the return function G.

  • Patent number: 11836585
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for training probabilistic object motion prediction models using non-differentiable representations of prior knowledge. As one example, object motion prediction models can be used by autonomous vehicles to probabilistically predict the future location(s) of observed objects (e.g., other vehicles, bicyclists, pedestrians, etc.). For example, such models can output a probability distribution that provides a distribution of probabilities for the future location(s) of each object at one or more future times. Aspects of the present disclosure enable these models to be trained using non-differentiable prior knowledge about motion of objects within the autonomous vehicle's environment such as, for example, prior knowledge about lane or road geometry or topology and/or traffic information such as current traffic control states (e.g., traffic light status).

  • Patent number: 11836530
    Abstract: Various techniques are described for automatically suggesting variation parameters used to generate a tailored synthetic dataset to train a particular machine learning model. A seeding taxonomy associates a plurality of machine learning scenarios with corresponding subsets of variation parameters. A selected machine learning scenario is used to retrieve a corresponding subset of variation parameters associated with the selected machine learning scenario by the seeding taxonomy. The seeding taxonomy may be adaptable using a feedback loop that tracks selected variation parameters and updates the seeding taxonomy. The suggested variation parameters are presented as suggestions to assist users to identify and select relevant variation parameters faster and more efficiently. Further embodiments relate to pre-packaging synthetic datasets for common or anticipated machine learning scenarios.

  • Patent number: 11838826
    Abstract: A computer system obtains information describing a geographical area segmented into multiple first clusters serviced by a telecommunications network. Multiple test locations are identified within the first clusters. Each test location is located within a grid of the geographical area. Each first cluster is recursively segmented into multiple second clusters until a difference between a number of test locations within each second cluster and a target number of test locations is less than a threshold number of test locations. A route is generated connecting test locations within each second cluster, using a routing application programming interface for performing drive testing of the telecommunications network. The computer system sends the route to one or more computer devices for performing the drive testing at the test locations in a sequence corresponding to the route.
