Patent number: 10664966Abstract: An aspect of the invention includes reading a scale in image data representing an image of physical characteristics and resizing at least a portion of the image data to align with target image data representing a target image based at least in part on the scale to form resized image data representing one or more resized images. Noise reduction is applied to the resized image data to produce test image data representing one or more test images. A best fit analysis is performed on the test image data with respect to the target image data. Test image data having the best fit are stored with training image data representing classification training images indicative of one or more recognized features. An anomaly in unclassified image data representing an unclassified image is identified based at least in part on an anomaly detector as trained using the classification training images.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2018Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Dechao Guo, Liying Jiang, Derrick Liu, Jingyun Zhang, Huimei Zhou

Patent number: 10657205Abstract: An architecture and processes enable computer learning and developing an understanding of arbitrary natural language text through collaboration with humans in the context of joint problem solving. The architecture ingests the text and then syntactically and semantically processes the text to infer an initial understanding of the text. The initial understanding is captured in a story model of semantic and frame structures. The story model is then tested through computer generated questions that are posed to humans through interactive dialog sessions. The knowledge gleaned from the humans is used to update the story model as well as the computing system's current world model of understanding. The process is repeated for multiple stories over time, enabling the computing system to grow in knowledge and thereby understand stories of increasingly higher reading comprehension levels.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2017Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: ELEMENTAL COGNITION LLCInventors: David Ferrucci, Mike Barborak, David Buchanan, Greg Burnham, Jennifer Chu-Carroll, Aditya Kalyanpur, Adam Lally, Stefano Pacifico, Chang Wang

Patent number: 10649675Abstract: According to an embodiment, a storage controller comprises a circuitry configured to implement an address generator, a reader, and a duplication detector. The address generator is configured to generate a scan address indicating each storage area of a storage that stores therein externally written data, according to a particular scan pattern for defining an order of an address of data to be read. The reader is configured to read data from the storage area of the storage indicated by the scan address. The duplication detector is configured to detect whether the data read by the reader is a duplicate of any one of a past predetermined number of pieces of data.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2016Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: TOSHIBA MEMORY CORPORATIONInventors: Tomoya Kodama, Takayuki Itoh, Katsuyuki Nomura

Patent number: 10649975Abstract: Computer implemented methods for identifying denial constraints are provided herein. The denial constraints can be used with a database schema R. A predicate space P can be generated for an instance I in the schema R. An evidence set EviI can be generated. The evidence set EviI can include sets of satisfied predicates in the predicate space P for each instance I. A minimal set of predicates can be identified for the evidence set EviI. Valid denial constraints can be identified from the minimal set by inverting the predicates in the minimal set.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2013Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: Qatar FoundationInventors: Ihab Francis Ilyas Kaldas, Paolo Papotti, Xu Chu

Patent number: 10645109Abstract: The present disclosure relates a system, method, and computer program for detecting anomalous user network activity based on multiple data sources. The system extracts user event data for n days from multiple data sources to create a baseline behavior model that reflects the user's daily volume and type of IT events. In creating the model, the system addresses data heterogeneity in multi-source logs by categorizing raw events into meta events. Thus, baseline behavior model captures the user's daily meta-event pattern and volume of IT meta events over n days. The model is created using a dimension reduction technique. The system detects any anomalous pattern and volume changes in a user's IT behavior on day n by comparing user meta-event activity on day n to the baseline behavior model. A score normalization scheme allows identification of a global threshold to flag current anomalous activity in the user population.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2018Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: Exabeam, Inc.Inventors: Derek Lin, Qiaona Hu, Domingo Mihovilovic, Sylvain Gil, Barry Steiman
