  • Patent number: 11829474
    Abstract: The present invention provides a text classification backdoor attack method, system, device and a computer storage medium. The method includes: training a pretraining model by using a clean training set to obtain a clean model; generating a pseudo label data set by using a positioning label generator; performing multi-task training on a Sequence-to-Sequence model by using the pseudo label data set to obtain a locator model; generating a backdoor data set by using the locator model; and training the clean model by using the backdoor data set to obtain a dirty model. A pseudo label data set is generated by using a pretrained clean model without manual annotation. A backdoor attack location in a text sequence may be dynamically predicted by using a locator model based on a Sequence-to-Sequence and multi-task learning architecture without manual intervention, and a performance indicator obtained by dynamically selecting an attack location is better.

  • Patent number: 11804034
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of training a machine learnable function, such as an image classifier or image feature extractor. When applying such machine learnable functions in autonomous driving and similar application areas, generalizability may be important. To improve generalizability, the machine learnable function is rewarded for responding predictably at a layer of the machine learnable function to a set of differences between input observations. This is done by means of a regularization objective included in the objective function used to train the machine learnable function. The regularization objective rewards a mutual statistical dependence between representations of input observations at the given layer, given a difference label indicating a difference between the input observations.

The distance for each reference feature vector is modified by a weighting factor based on interaction metrics associated with the corresponding reference image. In some cases, an input image is identified as a differentiated image based on the corresponding differentiability score. Additionally or alternatively, an image modification module determines an image modification that increases the differentiability score of the input image. The image modification module generates a recommended image by applying the image modification to the input image.

  • Patent number: 11714602
    Abstract: A reference map generator clusters, into a semantic map, a set of data documents selected according to at least one criterion and associated with a medical diagnosis. A parser generates an enumeration of measurements occurring in the set of data documents. A representation generator generates for each measurement in the enumeration, a sparse distributed representation (SDR). The method includes storing, by a processor on a second computing device, in each of a plurality of memory cells on the second computing device, one of the generated SDRs. A diagnosis support module receives a document comprising a plurality of measurements. The representation generator generates a compound SDR for the document. Each of the plurality of bitwise comparison circuits determine a level of overlap between the compound SDR and the stored generated SDR. The diagnosis support module provides an identification of the medical diagnosis associated with a stored SDR.

  • Patent number: 11710035
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a technique to crowdsource labeling of training data for a machine learning model while maintaining the privacy of the data provided by crowdsourcing participants. Client devices can be used to generate proposed labels for a unit of data to be used in a training dataset. One or more privacy mechanisms are used to protect user data when transmitting the data to a server. The server can aggregate the proposed labels and use the most frequently proposed labels for an element as the label for the element when generating training data for the machine learning model. The machine learning model is then trained using the crowdsourced labels to improve the accuracy of the model.

  • Patent number: 11706226
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a list of domains is received that includes one or more categories for each domain. The categories are assigned to each domain using a classifier that is trained using features extracted from webpages known to be associated with particular categories. An administrator creates access rules for users, or groups of users, that control the categories of domains that each user is permitted to access or not access. When a user makes a request for a webpage, access rules associated with the user are retrieved, and one or more categories associated with the domain of the requested webpage are determined using the list of domains. If any of the one or more categories of the domain violate an access rule associated with the user, the request for the webpage is denied. Otherwise the user is allowed to access the webpage.

  • Patent number: 11704185
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable storage mediums are described for machine learning-based techniques for reducing the visual complexity of a dependency graph that is representative of an application or service. For example, the dependency graph is generated that comprises a plurality of nodes and edges. Each node represents a compute resource (e.g., a microservice) of the application or service. Each edge represents a dependency between nodes coupled thereto. A machine learning-based classification model analyzes each of the nodes to determine a likelihood that each of the nodes is a problematic compute resource. For instance, the classification model may output a score indicative of the likelihood that a particular compute resource is problematic. The nodes and/or edges having a score that exceed a predetermined threshold are provided focus via the dependency graph.

  • Patent number: 11704558
    Abstract: A method and a system for training a machine learning algorithm (MLA) for object classification. The machine learning algorithm includes an embedding layer and a classification layer. A set of embedding indices representing a reference object is received. The set of embedding indices has been generated based on a byte representation of the reference object. A label associated with the reference object indicative of a reference class the objects belongs to is received. The MLA is iteratively trained to classify objects by embedding the set of embedding indices to obtain an input vector and by predicting an estimated class based on the input vector, and updating a parameter of at least one of the embedding layer and the updated embedding layer. The set of embedding indices is generated by parsing the byte representation to obtain byte n-grams and by applying a hash function on the byte n-grams.
