  • Patent number: 11995151
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of training an image generation model. The image generation model comprises an argmax transformation configured to compute a discrete index feature indicating an index of a feature of the continuous feature vector with an extreme value. The image generation model is trained using a log-likelihood optimization. This involves obtaining a value of the index feature for the training image, sampling values of the continuous feature vector given the value of the index feature according to a stochastic inverse transformation of the argmax transformation, and determining a likelihood contribution of the argmax transformation for the log-likelihood based on a probability that the stochastic inverse transformation generates the values of the continuous feature vector given the value of the index feature.

  • Patent number: 11956256
    Abstract: In a priority determination apparatus (10), a dissimilarity index calculation unit (11) calculates a dissimilarity index between a transmission/reception performance record of a first traffic flow related to a first security alert notified from a network-type intrusion detection apparatus and a transmission/reception performance record of a second traffic flow related to a second security alert notified from the network-type intrusion detection apparatus in the past, the network-type intrusion detection apparatus being configured to detect an attack on an apparatus in a network. A priority determination unit (12) determines a priority of the first security alert based on the dissimilarity index calculated by the dissimilarity index calculation unit (11).

  • Patent number: 11948691
    Abstract: Technologies are provided for determining an individual's likelihood of relapsing into prior behavior subsequent to a treatment for a mental health or addiction disorder, and in some instances predicting a likelihood time frame for such a relapse. Target subjects having a risk of addiction relapse, non-adherence to a treatment program, or absconding, may be automatically identified based on a multiplicative-regression model for relative survival (MRS) that is developed for predicting risk or likelihood of relapse or non-adherence. Further, in some embodiments, a leading indicator of near-term future abnormalities may be provided thereby proactively notifying supervisory personnel responsible for the person and providing such personnel with timely notice to enable effective corrective, preventive, or trend-modifying maneuvers to be undertaken.

  • Patent number: 11946096
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of imaging template hybridisation for estimating cluster numbers prior to solid phase amplification and sequencing. More particularly, an initial round of imaging is carried out at the single molecule template hybridisation stage which allows a general estimation of cluster numbers prior to clusters being formed. Amplification of the signal allows single molecule imaging to be carried out using standard sequencing imaging apparatus.

    Abstract: Techniques that facilitate optimization of prototype and machine design within a three-dimensional fluid modeling environment are presented. For example, a system includes a modeling component, a machine learning component, and a graphical user interface component. The modeling component generates three-dimensional model of a mechanical device based on a library of stored data elements. The machine learning component predicts one or more characteristics of the mechanical device based on a first machine learning process associated with the three-dimensional model. The machine learning component also generates physics modeling data of the mechanical device based on the one or more characteristics of the mechanical device. The graphical user interface component provides, via a graphical user interface, a three-dimensional design environment associated with the three-dimensional model and a probabilistic simulation environment associated with optimization of the three-dimensional model.
