  • Patent number: 12380880
    Abstract: An end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) system can be constructed by fusing a first ASR model with a transformer. The input of the transformer is a learned layer generated by the first ASR model. The fused ASR model and transformer can be treated as a single end-to-end model and trained as a single model. In some embodiments, the end-to-end speech recognition system can be trained using a teacher-student training technique by selectively truncating portions of the first ASR model and/or the transformer components and selectively freezing various layers during the training passes.

  • Patent number: 12249316
    Abstract: A speech recognition platform configured to receive an audio signal that includes speech from a user and perform automatic speech recognition (ASR) on the audio signal to identify ASR results. The platform may identify: (i) a domain of a voice command within the speech based on the ASR results and based on context information associated with the speech or the user, and (ii) an intent of the voice command. In response to identifying the intent, the platform may perform a corresponding action, such as streaming audio to the device, setting a reminder for the user, purchasing an item on behalf of the user, making a reservation for the user or launching an application for the user. The speech recognition platform, in combination with the device, may therefore facilitate efficient interactions between the user and a voice-controlled device.

  • Patent number: 12238435
    Abstract: An imaging device having a function of processing an image is provided. The imaging device has an additional function such as image processing, can hold analog data obtained by an image capturing operation in a pixel, and can extract data obtained by multiplying the analog data by a predetermined weight coefficient. Difference data between adjacent light-receiving devices can be obtained in a pixel, and data on luminance gradient can be obtained. When the data is taken in a neural network or the like, inference of distance data or the like can be performed. Since enormous volume of image data in the state of analog data can be held in pixels, processing can be performed efficiently.

  • Patent number: 12223432
    Abstract: A method and system of training an interpretable deep learning model includes receiving an input set of data, which may be complex. The input set of data is provided to deep learning model for feature extraction. In an exemplary embodiment, the deep learning model generates a disentangled latent space of features from the feature extraction. The features may comprise semantically meaningful data which is then provided to a low-complexity learning model. The low-complexity learning model generates output based on a specified task (for example, classification or regression). Being a low-complexity learning model provides confidence that the data output from the deep learning model is inherently interpretable.

  • Patent number: 12216741
    Abstract: The technology disclosed corrects inter-cluster intensity profile variation for improved base calling on a cluster-by-cluster basis. The technology disclosed accesses current intensity data and historic intensity data of a target cluster, where the current intensity data is for a current sequencing cycle and the historic intensity data is for one or more preceding sequencing cycles. A first accumulated intensity correction parameter is determined by accumulating distribution intensities measured for the target cluster at the current and preceding sequencing cycles. A second accumulated intensity correction parameter is determined by accumulating intensity errors measured for the target cluster at the current and preceding sequencing cycles. Based on the first and second accumulated intensity correction parameters, next intensity data for a next sequencing cycle is corrected to generate corrected next intensity data, which is used to base call the target cluster at the next sequencing cycle.

  • Patent number: 12210586
    Abstract: A model may be trained on a training dataset, e.g., for medical image processing or medical signal processing tasks. Systems and computer-implemented methods are provided for associating a population descriptor with the trained model and using the population descriptor to determine whether records to which the model is to be applied, conform to the population descriptor. The population descriptor characterizes a distribution of the one or more characteristic features over the training dataset, with the characteristic features characterizing the training record and/or a model output provided when the trained model is applied to the training record. For instance, the model may be applied only to records conforming to population descriptor, or model outputs of applying the model to non-conforming records may be flagged as possibly untrustworthy.
