The present invention relates to computer assisted or automated content generation.
Writing well is a must have skill for professionals such as poets and authors, and for corporate employees, writing one of those skills that can help a person rise above in her career. For novelists and writers, getting started can be hard. A writer is not someone who thinks obsessively about writing, or talks about it, or plans it, or dissects her writing. The terror of the white page is real for most. When such roadblocks occur, the writer can lose valuable time in completing a book on time and on-budget. Video content creators face similar issues when pitching new movie concepts to funders.
Generating natural language from machine representation systems is a common and increasingly important function. Existing natural language generation (NLG) systems, such as translators, summarizers, dialog generators, etc., while common, cannot produce variable output based on user-desired tunable specifications. Additionally, such existing systems cannot take input in the form of a variable form of text and a variable set of specifications and output a transformed version of the input text according to the specifications. Further, such existing systems are generally not readily extendable. U.S. Application 20200034432 mentions generating tunable stylized text (such as, for example, one or more sentences) by transforming received user text input and one or more user-originated stylistic parameters (directed to polarity of subjective opinion, such as sentiments, valence, emotions, formal, business, readability, etc.) in vector form, using unsupervised natural language processing (NLP) systems such as rule-based and/or machine learning-based classifiers and/or regressors, metric computation systems as style scorers, etc.

Advantages of the system may include one or more of the following. The system increases communication effectiveness. The system generates good technical writing in a time-saving manner, and the results avoid misunderstanding and increase workplace efficiency by promoting good communication between engineers and other staff. The system directs the writing to the intended audience will allow the reader to understand the content on the first read, rather than needing to ask for additional details or explanation. By understanding the audience’s goal in reading the document, the system helps the writer to highlight the important data, focusing on significant supplementary or background information and bringing such information to the user to decide. Thus, the information needed for a decision, instruction or education take center stage. The system keeps the information accessible and uses the simplest and most direct language to convey the information with a neutral and professional tone.

The system reduces the cost of writing documents by serving as writing assistants that fill (or inbetween) details based on the abstract. For more technical descriptions where engineering details are important, the system can expand from an abstract to a full description with clarity. In other applications that demand flowery language, the efficiency of human drafters can be improved significantly when a master drafter generates a summary of the major points in the article, and the computer fills in the missing details, much similar to inbetweening of animation. The user would draw the keyframes which define the movement, then, hands the scene to a human or computer assistant. The assistant does the clean-up and the necessary inbetweens, or, in large studios, only some breakdowns which define the movement in more detail, before handing down the scene to their assistant, the inbetweener, who does the rest. The system can adapt the detail resolution or rate to the current scene. Different scenes components of a story might be animated at different resolutions or rates to conform to the master drafter’s command. The result is a significant speedup in document generation, while cost is reduced.

In one embodiment, the AI helps the user expand the outline using a chatbot (as detailed below) which conversationally engages the user and ask the user to expand on where what who why how questions: What? What is the concept, topic, or idea? Where? Where does this concept, topic, or idea, apply? Maybe it’s an event, or a context situation. Why? Why does this matter? Who? Who is this for, or who is involved? When? Is there a concept of time involved? How? If applicable, how will this happen? Working through the outline, asking and answering these basic questions, the computer can build a story that can stretch the imagination. While the foregoing relates to fiction writing, the system can be used for non-fiction writing such as for software coding, technical documentation, SEO for web site content, among others.

In another embodiment for
In the systems of
In implementations, the document structure can be an outline, and each landmark text can be a chapter overview, and wherein the component texts comprise a chapter outline. The document can be a fiction or a non-fiction work. The document can be computer code. The document can be a design specification of a new mechanical system. The document structure can have one or more figures, wherein each figure comprises a brief description of the drawing, a figure overview, and wherein the component texts comprise a part list of items in each figure. When suggesting, the computer text generation can emphasize the component text over the milestone overview text when generating the component text suggestions. The computer combining can include a title and a background text with the one or more seed landmark texts and providing the combined title, background, and seed landmark texts to a learning machine to synthesize computer-generated text. The method includes extracting one or more references from a figure and annotating the one or more references with text; and forming one or more computer-generated reference text suggestions. The method includes performing grammar analysis and suggesting grammar correction and editing the document for conciseness. The method includes applying a transformer with an encoder that reads the text input and a decoder that produces a prediction for the text. The transformer can be a GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) or a BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) to generate the text.
The first GPT, released in 2018, contained 117 million parameters, these being the weights of the connections between the network’s nodes, and a good proxy for the model’s complexity. GPT-2, released in 2019, contained 1.5 billion parameters. GPT-3, by comparison, has 175 billion parameters -more than 100 times more than GPT2 and ten times more than comparable programs and trained on large corpus from the Internet. The present system supplements GPT-3 training data by feeding the transformers with technical publications and US, EPO and Chinese intellectual property/patent text, and with source code from Github, among others.
For generating alternatives, the method includes determining when two pieces of text, component, module, code, data structure, or image perform a similar task and showing the determined text, component, module, code, data structure, or image to a user. For designs, the method includes breaking-down the milestone overview text into one or more alternate components with different component text but capable of performing the milestone overview text based on teachings from prior art documents and showing the one or more alternate components as a computer-generated design around satisfying the milestone overview text, wherein the learning machine learns from prior art and from publicly available data such as Wikipedia and Github.com
One embodiment captures semantically salient properties of the input code. The embodiment captures information that describes the context of the code (e.g., it is a function call, it is an operation, etc.). Code similarity measurement (such as vector dot product, cosine similarity) is used to determine the similarity score between the input program and any other program that has undergone the same code transformation process.
One embodiment uses the neural network to map from a goal or intention (given as a set of examples) to a restricted set of components that it has learned to recognize as useful when satisfying similar goals or intentions. This allows it to then use a synthesizer to solve the synthesis problem on this restricted program space. The system can handle complex conditional distributions, allowing it to automatically determine, for example, how to use complex Java and Android APIs. The system includes reasoning at a high-level of abstraction about how those building blocks fit together, and only then reasoning at the code level in a targeted fashion. The neural networks model and learn the mapping from input-output examples to attributes with: an encoder — a differentiable mapping from a set of M input-output examples generated by a single program to a latent real-valued vector, and a decoder — a differentiable mapping from the latent vector representing a set of M input/output examples to predictions of the ground truth program’s attributes. The neural network is used to guide the search for a program consistent with a set of input-output examples instead of directly predicting the entire source code. Depth-first search (DFS) can search over programs with a given maximum length. When the search procedure extends a partial program by a new function, it tries the functions in the DSL in some order. At this point DFS can opt to consider the functions as ordered by their predicted probabilities from the neural network. Another approach is the “Sort and add” enumeration, which maintains a set of active functions and performs DFS with the active function set only. Whenever the search fails, the next most probable function (or several) are added to the active set and the search restarts with this larger active set. The neural network is trained from large-scale data sources, such as code repositories like GitHub, or synthetic data-sources such as randomly generated programs and datasets.
While automation of code is discussed in the above example, another example can identify mechanical or biological modules useful in translating a desired goal/intent into a practical implementation. This is done by analyzing the patent literature and generate design arounds from prior documented solutions in the patent literature. This embodiment captures semantically salient properties of the input requirement or specification. The system is also context-aware, as it can capture information that describes the context of the hardware involved. Code similarity detects the similarity score between the input and any other implementation that has undergone the same mapping or transformation process. The resulting machine operation feature vector is provided to the learning machine. The neural network to map from a goal or intention (given as a set of examples) to a restricted set of components that it has learned to recognize as useful when satisfying similar goals or intentions. This allows it to then use a synthesizer to solve the synthesis problem on this restricted program space. The system includes reasoning at a high-level of abstraction about how those building blocks fit together, and only then reasoning at the code level in a targeted fashion.
A sentence tokenizer splits the text into set of sentences.
After tokenization, a representation for sentences is done. The system uses is the Skip-Thought Encoder where the representations encode the inherent semantics and meaning of the corresponding sentence. The Skip-Gram Word2Vec is method for generating the embeddings for words. A weighted average of the words in the sentences is used to form the sentence embedding.
To put the sequence of words in account, the Skip-Thought sentence encoder is used with two parts, an encoder and a decoder. The encoder part is a GRU-RNN which generate a fixed length vector for each sentence. The decoder part takes the vector representation as an input and tries to generate two sentences (the next and the previous to it).
The encoder-decoder network training minimizes the sentence reconstruction loss, so that after training the encoder is able to produce representation of semantically similar sentence that are closer to each other.
After generating the embedding, the next step is to cluster them into a pre-defined number of clusters. The number of clusters represents the desired number of sentences in the summary.
In one embodiment with user supervision, the system includes code to:

Advantages of the system may include one or more of the following. The system reduces the cost of writing documents by serving as writing assistants that fill (or in-between) details based on the abstract. For more technical descriptions where engineering details are important, the system can expand from an abstract to a full description with clarity. In other applications that demand flowery language, the efficiency of human drafters can be improved significantly when a master drafter generates a summary of the major points in the article, and the computer fills in the missing details, similar to inbetweening of animation. In the current system, Inbetweening or tweening is a process in all types of content expansion, including text and video animation. The video inbetweening includes generating intermediate frames between two images, called key frames, to smoothly transition the first image into the second image, where the inbetweens are intermediate drawings which create the illusion of motion from one key frame to the next key frame, all generated using the image transformers. The transformer / learning machine receives from the user designations on how objects in an image and can move and change during the tweening process. To aid the transformer, the user can manually render or adjust transitional frames by hand or software may be used to automatically render transitional frames using interpolation of graphic parameters. The instant video inbetweening applies the learning machines to the inbetweening workflow where keyframes are generated by a skilled artisan, and then inbetween movements are specified for rendering software. The computerized renderer does the clean-up and the necessary in-betweens. The system can adapt the detail resolution or rate to the current scene. Detailed points may be written on threes or fours chapters of writeups. Different scenes components of a story might be animated at different resolutions or rates to conform to the master drafter’s command. The result is a significant speedup in document generation, while cost is reduced.
In another embodiment, the text inbetweening includes generating intermediate paragraphs between two points in the text outline to evolve smoothly between the major points in the text outline, where the text inbetweens are intermediate paragraphs, pages, or even chapters which follow the text outline to create a cohesive flow as specified by the outline, all generated using the image transformers or learning machines to generate long form text as guided by a structure such as an outline.
In one implementation, text preprocessing is the first step for the given dataset to prepare it to be an input to the classification model. Cleaning of the dataset is done first using regular expressions (Regex) to remove punctuation and HTML tags. After that, tokenizer is to be used for splitting the text into set of words. Text normalization is done after tokenization through stemming, lemmatization, and lower-casing of the words to convert different forms of each word into one. Then, stop words are to be removed since they do not carry meaning by themselves (words such as “the”). Finally, words can be checked for their spelling to prevent the chance of having multiple forms of the same word.
Word vectorization or embedding is done after preprocessing to convert the words into a language understood by any machine learning model, which are numbers. There are two approaches for the problem of sentiment analysis, either to use supervised machine learning or unsupervised lexicon-based approach. In one embodiment, semantic word vector spaces can be used in search query can be used where a vector generated from co-occurrence statistics of a word and its adjacent words is used to encode the meaning of this word. Although word vector models have succeeded to perform certain NLP tasks such as sentiment analysis, yet they neglect the compositionality, and context at which these words have been used. Thus, they produce misleading, and erroneous results at sentences where long dependencies exist such as sentences which include negation words or adverbs with similar meanings. Another drawback, word vectors obtained via co-occurrence statistics consider two factors: syntactic, and semantic similarity so if a small window of context has been used then words like bad, good have very similar representation.
One of the supervised models is Word2Vec which can be included in the model to be trained in which the parameters of the embedding can be trained with the labels from the labeled dataset.. In other embodiments, models that are trained based on part-of-speech tagging, SentiWordNet, for example, to identify the sense of the word and hence a better embedding. Other vectorizer such as GloVe is trained based on the context or aggregated global word-word co-occurrence statistics of the word in the corpus, so it will map the word into the embedding space based on its context. In addition, some traditional methods are still used today such as term frequency-inverse document frequency (tf-idf). Other embodiments apply n-gram, so instead of just using single words tokens, it can be pairs of example. For example, instead of converting “didn’t like movie” into three words, a 3-gram language model can be used to generate triplets of words. The output of the word embedding is fed to the model of the system which can be implemented by enormous methods. A Support Vector Machine (SVM) or Logistic Regression to classify the data within the embedding.
In one case, system descriptions are mainly deduced from complete sentences rather than words for linguistic reasons by either using a model that exhibit a memory or using a vectorizer that consider the context of the word.
In another case, Abstractive Summarization is done. There are two approaches in Abstractive Summarization. The first one is to use Sequence-to-sequence RNNs with attention mechanism, the second one is to use a pointer generator networks which is different from a normal Sequence-to-Sequence model in that it can copy words from the source text via pointing, which aids accurate reproduction of information, while retaining the ability to produce novel words through the generator. It also keeps track of what is summarized to penalize repetition. Attention mechanism is inspired in the visual attention animals have were they focus on specific parts of their visual inputs to compute adequate responses. Attention used in Seq2Seq architectures seeks to give more contextual information to the decoder. At every decoding step, the decoder is informed how much “attention” it should give to the input word, while the transformer model focuses on attention. Positional embeddings provide positional information in the sequence of each element. And despite removing recurrence it still provides an encoder-decoder architecture such as the one seen in Seq2Seq models.
In yet another implementation, Extractive Summarization is done. Summarization produces a concise and fluent summary while preserving key information content and overall meaning. Historically, researches started the process of automating the process of summarization by introducing a method that extracts salient sentences from the text using features such as the work frequency. One implementation introduces weights to the sentences in the documents, ignoring the very frequency common words, the same approach that became very basic in most of NLP applications. The approaches to text summarization vary dramatically according to the output (extractive or abstractive), purpose (generic, specific domain, or query-based), or the number of documents (single or many). By generic, we mean that the model makes no assumptions about the domain or content to be summarized whereas domain-specific assume that the text belongs to a specific domain such as biomedical documents. On the other hand, query-based summarization produces a summary that contains information which answers the input question.
In one embodiment, extractive summarization process identifies the most important parts in the text and produces a subset from the original text that contain only these parts. However, extractive summarization reproduces important parts in a new way after interpreting the meaning to generate a new shorter text that convey the critical information from the original. Each extractive method should be composed of three main steps, construction of an intermediate representation of the input text, scoring the sentences, and selecting a summary comprising of a number of sentences. There are variations in each approach to the task. Firstly, the common is based on topic words where log-likelihood ratio test to identify words known as the topic signature. Secondly, a frequency-driven approach can be used as an indicator of importance using word probability and Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF). Sentences with highest words probability are assumed to represent the topic of the document and are included in the summary. Using TF-IDF method, the sentences are represented in a space where documents describing same topic are clustered together. Cluster centroids identify the sentences that are central to the topic Thirdly, Latent semantic analysis can be used for extraction. It is an unsupervised method that is similar to the second method but with minor modification on the produced space of clusters. Fourthly, a discourse-based method can be used to find the semantic relation between sentences using Cross-Document Structure Theory. However, this relation should be explicitly made by humans. Fifthly, Bayesian probabilistic is used to infer the words related to a certain topic based on a corpus of documents. Finally, a machine learning approach can be used where we treat summarization problem as a classification one. In addition, many models such as Hidden Markov Models often outperform classification methods.
In one implementation, the process is as follows: First, a sentence tokenizer splits the text into set of sentences; and After tokenization, a representation for sentences is done. The system uses is the Skip- Thought Encoder where the representations encode the inherent semantics and meaning of the corresponding sentence. The Skip-Gram Word2Vec is method for generating the embeddings for words. A weighted average of the words in the sentences is used to form the sentence embedding.
To put the sequence of words in account, the Skip-Thought sentence encoder is used with two parts, an encoder and a decoder. The encoder part is a GRU-RNN which generate a fixed length vector for each sentence. The decoder part takes the vector representation as an input and tries to generate two sentences (the next and the previous to it). The encoder-decoder network training minimizes the sentence reconstruction loss, so that after training the encoder can produce representation of semantically similar sentence that are closer to each other. After generating the embedding, the next step is to cluster them into a pre-defined number of clusters. The number of clusters represents the desired number of sentences in the summary.
The structure can be a shot list and the method can take a scene from the script and make a shot list, and the system can suggest how particular camera angles tell the story or make a moment more impactful. The system can suggest revealing details about the characters and the story via camera angles. The system can autogenerate additional rough sketches of the shot list. The method can help the user to choose one of the more complex sequences and scope out a vision for the scene where the shots are sketched in the squares of the storyboard, like a comic strip. One embodiment provides basic shapes and stick figures on a piece of paper. The system can autogenerate images for the user based on similar image search. The system helps the user fill in details. The storyboard has the most important elements of each scene. From static images, the result is a moving video or animation that follows the storyline guided by indicated motions or props in the storyboard and camera angles and framing of each shot. The thumbnails provide a general outline of the relevant details of each shot, without going too deep into distracting details. Once the system receives the images, it auto-suggests additional words at the bottom of the images to give more context such as any voice over to add, for example.
In yet another embodiment for automated computer code generation, the code inbetweening includes receiving a high level description of a predetermined code (such as pseudo-code), and based on each function specified in each line of the pseudocode, generating intermediate code to perform each sub-function by looking up learned code to achieve the desired sub-function. If needed, if the pseudo-code line requires additional break-down into sub lines to achieve the desired functionality, the transformer can perform the in-line substitution to break the desired functionality into digestible sub-tasks to be converted into computer code that in totality achieve the desired effect for the code. In this manner, the computer readable code inbetweens are intermediate lines, function calls, module calls, or even entire external programs which follow the high level pseudo-code to create a cohesive program as specified by the user, all generated using the image transformers or learning machines to generate computer code in accordance with the pseudo-code.
The code can be computer readable code, html code, or hardware ASIC code such as ADL or RTL, among others. High-level synthesis tool flows are can be used for specifying the complete SoC or its constituents. Automatic generation of optimized RTL can be done based on input specification and user-directed constraints. The system can start from open source processors (RISC V), Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architectures (CGRAs) and Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). The transformer is used to generate a high-level synthesis of ASICs based on Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) and the automated hardware synthesis generated by the transformers / learning machine can be used to explore intermediate design points between an ASIC and a weakly programmable processor, for example.
One exemplary model has the following parameters: block_size = 200, vocab_size = 52000, and the ipc parameters are: n_ipcs = 1500, the final dimensions of the model are: block_size = 201 and vocab_size = 53500
The foregoing customization of response can be used in other applications such as chatbots and SEO optimization.
To optimize for long text generation, the system performs training on the corpus with a vocabulary of around 52000 words. It then gets a subset of documents (either from a search on terms that is close to the target text or from prior history of text generated by the user, for example) and tokens from the subset of document are then used to bias the predicted probability to generate the final text. This can be done by obtaining a histgorgram of tokens, then normalization is done, and the probability of the subset is merged with the pretrained probability. This increases the probability that new tokens are drawn from the biased set to increase the likelihood that the neural network generates text more like a desired text target.
In one embodiment for generating long form text, supplemental text is used to bias the text generator. The text documentation is exported as 500 newline-delimited json files. This dataset is far too big to fit in memory, so a custom encoding script is used to pre-tokenize and store the dataset in an archive, at a block size of 800 (tokens). The system used a Transformers Dataset class is used to read this dataset into a neural network model such as the GPT training pipeline. This script is modified to export a complete model to disk every 500 iterations, so that model performance can be benchmarked as it trains. Then, using the pipeline API provided in HuggingFace transformers v. 3+, the GPT tokenizer and the custom model is combined into a text generation pipeline using a modified version of the generation_utils.py file, to allow for document biasing as detailed above. This pipeline can perform generation on a GPU, speeding up generation by 10x.
In another embodiment, the method includes generating long form context-sensitive text with a desired token length and targeted at a topic by:
For example, a database of patents can be searched to locate documents matching the text input, and then the matching documents (or portions of the matching documents) can be provided to the LMA to bias the LMA to generate documents related to the topic. The long text generation can be used as suggested text to the system described in U.S. Pat. 9,990,351 to the instant inventor, the content of which is incorporated by reference. The long form text includes suggested text for the background, description of figures, description and summary text in the document generated by U.S. Pat. 9,990,351, for example.
Another embodiment generates context-sensitive text by:
Yet another embodiment generates context-sensitive text by:
One embodiment blends text from different fields to arrive at a completely new concept (ideation process). The embodiment uses a Transformer autoencoder, and allows users control over both the global and local structure of a generated concept sample. In particular, the model enables using an existing concept or abstract as input to generate a new concept in a similar style, or harmonize a specific new concept in a different technology, but in the style of the original concept. In other words, given two concepts 1 and 2 each from different patent art unit 1 and 2, the system generates a new concept that is a blend of the concepts 1 and 2 using a Concept Transformer.
The Transformer autoencoder is built on top of the Concept Transformer’s architecture as its foundation. As a refresher, Concept Transformer uses relative attention to better capture the complex structure and periodicity present in concepts.
The program encodes abstracts/summaries into idea representations. The Transformer autoencoder’s performance encoder takes as input the abstracts and performs a mean-aggregate of the output embedding to learn a global representation of the core concepts. The decoder is allowed to attend to this concept vector.
To harmonize with another input concept, a concept encoder is used in addition to the performance encoder to embed the respective inputs. These two intermediate representations of melody and performance are then aggregated to form a single vector input into the decoder.
Instead of using self-attention to operate over absolute positional encodings of each token in a given sequence done in one embodiment, the preferred embodiment’s Transformer replaces this mechanism with relative attention and allows the model to keep better track of regularity based on event orderings.
The standard encoder and decoder stacks of the Transformer have 6 layers which are each comprised of a: (1) multi-head relative attention mechanism; and a (2) position-wise fully connected feed-forward network. The concept encoder takes as input the event-based performance encoding of an input performance, while the melody encoder learns an encoding of the melody which has been extracted from the input performance. Depending on the generation task, the encoder output(s) are fed into the Transformer decoder. The decoder shares the same structure as the encoder network, but with an additional multihead attention layer over the encoder outputs.
At train time the encoder and the decoder use the same inputs, and right-shifting the decoder inputs by one, and doing a single forward pass through the decoder. At generation time, encoder inputs would be the original sequence (same at train), and decoder inputs would be the token and then loop the decoder to generate a new sequence. One approach is to mask out (set to zero) all encoder outputs which correspond to pad tokens, and then (rather than averaging) to stack the tensor along the seq-aka-time (hereinafter ‘time’) axis (where the encoder output is of shape (batch, time, d_model), and project the resulting (batch, time*d_model) tensor through a feed forward network onto a (batch, d_encoding) space. This is our autoencoded vector, which is used for later sampling. That vector is then mapped back to the original encoder shape via another feed-forward net + reshape (in pytorch, tensor.view()) step, and the result is used for decoder attentions. In another embodiment, during training, the decoder is provided with: (1) the performance and/or new technology vector representation, which was mean-aggregated across time, and (2) a perturbed performance sequence. you can think of (2) as the input with some added noise (for NLP tasks they could look like masking tokens or random word substitutions). The “noisy training” helped quite a bit on this front. The system uses expanded dataset plus the masking (if present). For the perturbations, masks and substitutions are used.
The DNN generates samples that technologically is similar to a conditioning input performance. The mean-aggregate of the concept embedding to learn a global representation of concepts. This mean-performance embedding is then fed into the autoregressive decoder, where the decoder attends to this global representation in order to predict the appropriate new concept. In this way, the generated concepts are conceptually related yet different due to its application to another inventive space or art unit from to the input sequence. The system applies two distinct Transformer encoders (each with the same architecture) to separately encode the conceptual inputs. The conceptual embeddings are combined to use as input to the decoder.
In combining the intermediate representations, the system can add the concept embeddings together (sum); or alternatively the system can concatenate the two embeddings separated with a stop token (concatenate); or alternatively tile the performance embedding across every dimension of technology in the conceptual encoding (tile). All three cases works with the mean-aggregated representation of the input performance.
To encourage the encoded performance representations to generalize across various technology space in different art units, a denoising autoencoder regularizes the model. For every target concept to be trained, the model is provided with a perturbed version of the input concept as the conditioning signal. Finally, the model is trained end-to-end with maximum likelihood: for a given sequence x of length n, we maximize log pθ(x) = Pn i=1 log pθ(xijx<i) with respect to the model parameters θ. Training is conducted inan autoencoder-like fashion. For conceptual conditioning, the Transformer autoencoder is trained to predict a new performance using the combined technology embedding from two or more art units, where the loss is computed with respect to the input performance.
In one exemplary operation, the user desires to mash up two different concepts, and the text command can be: 6G and blockchain and AI. The system responds by inferencing 6G concepts with blockchain concepts and AI concepts to arrive at a new blended concept of using 6G transceivers that are self-aware and communicate its frequency requirements to nearby transceiver with the duration, RFpower, and RF frequency. AI is used to optimize the needs of different transceivers such as proximity contactless transceivers (RFID), PAN transceivers (Bluetooth), LAN transceivers (WiFi), cellular transceivers (5G/6G), and LEO satellite transceivers, among others. The transceivers use a mesh network topology and AI to arrive at an agreed upon transmission schedule which is then embedded in a blockchain. The system is used to generate and document IP, such as those disclosed in US Application Serial ______ and entitled Smart Wireless Systems by the same inventor, the content of which is incorporated by reference.
One the claim formats are done, the system renders images including elements recited in each claim. For software claims, the system provides flowcharts that mention all steps. For drawings that require more than flowchart boxes, the system applies a machine renderer. In alternative embodiment, a transformer language model receives both the claim text and the inventive drawing input as a single stream of data containing up to 1280 tokens, and is trained using maximum likelihood to generate all of the tokens. In this embodiment, a token is any symbol from a discrete vocabulary; for humans, each English letter is a token from a 26-letter alphabet. The system’s vocabulary has tokens for illustrated concepts. In one embodiment, each idea abstract/summary is represented using byte pair encoding (BPE) or diagram coding-encoded tokens with a vocabulary size such as 16384. Training is done using the relaxation obviates the need for an explicit codebook, EMA loss, or dead code revival, and can scale up to large vocabulary sizes. The training can not only generate a new drawing from scratch, but also to regenerate any figure bvariations, in a way that is consistent with the text prompt such as those by a human inventor or by machine.
One embodiment uses a simple decoder-only transformer that receives both the text prompt and the drawings as a single stream of 1280 tokens-256 for the text and 1024 for the concept -and models all of them autoregressively. The attention mask at each of its 64 self-attention layers allows each concept token to attend to all text tokens. A standard causal mask is used for the text tokens, and sparse attention for the image tokens with either a row, column, or convolutional attention pattern, depending on the layer.
In an alternative embodiment, a transformer language model receives both the text and the inventive concept as a single stream of data containing up to 1280 tokens, and is trained using maximum likelihood to generate all of the tokens. In this embodiment, a token is any symbol from a discrete vocabulary; for humans, each English letter is a token from a 26-letter alphabet. The system’s vocabulary has tokens for both text and drawing concepts learned from patent illustrations. In one embodiment, each concept/drawing is represented using a BPE-encoded tokens with a vocabulary size of 16384, and the image is represented using 1024 tokens with a vocabulary size of 8192. The images are preprocessed to 256×256 resolution during training. Similar to VQVAE, 1415 each image is compressed to a 32×32 grid of discrete latent codes using a discrete VAE1011 that we pretrained using a continuous relaxation. The training procedure not only generates an image from scratch, but also to regenerates any rectangular region of an existing image. The decoder-only transformer that receives both the text and the image as a single stream of 1280 tokens-256 for the text and 1024 for the image-and models all of them autoregressively. The attention mask at each of its 64 self-attention layers allows each image token to attend to all text tokens. Causal mask is used for the text tokens, and sparse attention for the image tokens with either a row, column, or convolutional attention pattern, depending on the layer. In another embodiment, a GAN can be used that is conditioned on text embeddings. The embeddings are produced by an encoder pretrained using a contrastive loss.
One embodiment can predict from the text generated, the destination of a potential reviewer. This is done by first learning the assignment of cases based on the text in a document and its assignment to an art unit. Then during inference, the user’s text is processed to predict where the case is likely to be assigned to.
Classification of Patent Texts (and attribution of text weight) is done as follows:
A RoBERTa-style, encoder-only transformer with a sequence classification head (the latter consisting of a Dense feed forward net, a dropout layer, and a Dense feed forward net) was trained to predict the following Technology Center classes, for example:
The dataset was derived from the google public patent dataset. Patents matching the above classes were collated to normalize for class-wise total text length; specifically, the total word count of all patents in the least-represented tech center group from the set was calculated, and all other centers were randomly downsampled so as to have equivalent total word counts upoin download.
The resulting corpus was then processed by tokenizing each patent with the standard RoBERTa tokenizer, and splitting the resulting data into labeled sequences of 512 tokens each (the maximum input size for RoBERTa) and 4096 sequences each (the maximum input size for Longformer). NOTE: The Longformer dataset and models were ultimately not used, as the smoothgrad algorithm used later in the process could not fit the model onto a single GPU (and classification accuracy was not substantially greater than the RoBERTa model). Labels were assigned according to the TC_CLASS_MAP (above).
Training was performed in parallel on GPUs, with fp16 mixed precision (AMP) and gradient accumulation, for an effective batch size of 128. Training was stopped when the evaluation set F1 score started to diverge, and the best model (picked for highest eval F1) was selected for use to predict art unit assignment.
The SmoothGrad algorithm is utilized at prediction time to return both the predicted text label, and a token-wise impact attribution on that prediction. Tokens with higher impact on the prediction are more red. The result is a color coded output that indicates what words are more likely to impact the assignment of a case to an art unit or technology center:
...an iPhone with a geometric shape to find an English word puzzle. Thus it is clear that it is desirable to provide a system of word puzzle game application in iPhone in a better enhanced way. The present invention overcomes these and other problems by providing software game application in an iPhone. Further it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the objects of this invention have been achieved by providing a software application game in an iPhone which consists of a English dictionary words that forms as a puzzle word game with a geometrical shape which is unique in nature unlike existing mobile puzzle game that are suited only for limited purposes. Various changes may be made in and without departing from the concept of the invention. Further, features of some stages disclosed in this application may be employed with features of other stages. Therefore, the scope of the invention is to be determined by the terminology, and the legal equivalents thereof. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This present invention may be summarized, at least in part, with reference to its objects. The foremost objective of this invention is to provide a system of word puzzle game application in an iPhone. Another objective of this invention is to entertain an iPhone user by providing a word puzzle game with geometrical shapes. Another objective of this invention is to educate the user of an iPhone with a simple Label: 3700 - Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing, Gaming, and Medical Devices/Processes |93.89%|
One embodiment provides an interactive tool where the user can globally change a word and see the impact of the assignment. That way, the user can influence the art unit assignment as desired.
One embodiment employs the poly-encoder architecture which encode global features of the context using multiple representations (n codes, where n is a hyperparameter), which are attended to by each possible candidate response. This final attention mechanism gives improved performance over a single global vector representation (so-called “biencoders”), whilst still being tractable to compute compared to simply concatenating input and output as input to a Transformer (or “crossencoders”). A Seq2Seq Transformer architecture is used to generate responses rather than retrieve them from a fixed set. One implementation is based on the ParlAI version with Byte-Level BPE tokenization trained on the pre-training data, as implemented in HuggingFace’s Tokenizers.
To avoid producing dull and repetitive chat responses, given the dialogue history, the retrieval model is first used to produce a draft response which is then appended to the input sequence of the generator, along with a special separator token. The generator then outputs a response as normal given this modified input sequence. Alternatively, the system can retrieve from a large knowledge base, instead of retrieving an initial dialogue utterance and then condition the generation on the retrieved knowledge. The same retrieval system uses a TF-IDF-based inverted index lookup over the collected/crawled data to produce an initial set of knowledge candidates. A Transformer retriever model is then used to rank the candidates and select a single sentence which is used to condition generation. A Transformer-based classifier is trained to choose when to perform retrieval or not on a per-turn basis, as some contexts do not require knowledge. This was trained as a two-class classifier discriminating between contexts that require knowledge or not in the fine-tuning tasks.
The domain specific training of the learning machine enables it to have in-depth knowledge if sufficiently interrogated. The system uses industry specific jargon due to the domain training so that it does not use generic/simpler language and it does not repeat oftused phrases.

In the user emotion detection, the chatbot can request access to camera and microphone (mike). If permitted, a variety of analysis can be done, but if not, text-based emotion analysis can be done. The system uses deep learning to recognize emotional intent patterns in human text, speech and facial expressions and respond to those cues in appropriate, empathetic ways-such as offering directions or information. Sentiment analysis for understanding the underlying feelings and emotions in opinions, whether written or spoken. One embodiment uses the transformers described herein and trained to analyze emotion based on the video/sound/text. A transformer model is used to fuse audiovisual-text modalities on the model level. A multi-head attention produces multimodal emotional intermediate representations from common semantic feature space after encoding text, audio and visual modalities, as supplemented by long-term temporal dependencies with self-attention.
If camera/mike access is allowed, facial analysis for frowning and voice pitch analysis and text sentiment analysis can be done in one embodiment. In other embodiments, posture, what’s happening in the environment, physiological information such as what’s going on with the nervous system, and smile context detection on a specific person in a specific situation can be done. Additionally, patterns in people with similar characteristics like gender sampled across cultures can be done to increase emotion detection accuracy. A number of emotional detection modules can be used, for example: DELTA is a deep learning based natural language and speech processing platform; Emotion Recognition Neural Networks using DNN with tensorflow; Emopy — deep neural net toolkit for emotion analysis via Facial Expression Recognition (FER); Emotion Recognition — Real time emotion recognition; Speech Emotion Analyzer - The neural network model is capable of detecting five different male/female emotions from audio speeches. (Deep Learning, NLP, Python); Conv Emotion — This repo contains implementation of different architectures for emotion recognition in conversations; Deepface — A Lightweight Deep Face Recognition and Facial Attribute Analysis (Age, Gender, Emotion and Race) Framework for Python; Emotion Detection - Real-time Facial Emotion Detection using deep learning; Emotion - Recognizes human faces and their corresponding emotions from a video or webcam feed; and Multimodal Emotion Recognition - A real time Multimodal Emotion Recognition web app for text, sound and video inputs; among others, the content of the documentations from their respective github sites are incorporated-by-reference.
For text only analysis, one embodiment uses the vaderSentiment package that provides a measure of positive, negative, and neutral sentiment. For given input text data, vaderSentiment returns a 3-tuple of polarity score percentages and a single scoring measure, referred to as vaderSentiment’s compound metric. Other suitable sentiment analysis tools can be used.
If user dissatisfaction is detected, the system forwards the user to a call center agent using a selection process determined by the learning machine trained for routing users to agents includes rating agents on performance or success of agent data and caller data, or both. The checking for optimal interaction includes combining agent work performance, agent demographic/psychographic data, and other work performance data (“agent data”), along with demographic, psychographic, and other business-relevant data about callers (“caller data”). Agent and caller demographic data can be: gender, race, age, education, accent, income, nationality, ethnicity, area code, zip code, marital status, job status, credit score, for example. Agent and caller psychographic data can cover introversion, sociability, work/employment status, film and television preferences, among others.
The training data includes caller data associated with one or more callers (e.g., a caller on hold), agent data associated with one or more agents (e.g., one or more available agents). Caller data (such as a caller demographic or psychographic data) is determined or identified for a caller. The system can get caller data from available databases by using the caller’s contact information as an index. Available databases include, but are not limited to, those that are publicly available, those that are commercially available, or those created by a contact center or a contact center client. If the caller’s contact information is not already known, caller data can be retrieved from the CallerID information or by requesting this information of the caller at the outset of the contact, such as through entry of a caller account number or other caller-identifying information. Other business-relevant data such as historic purchase behavior, current level of satisfaction as a customer, or volunteered level of interest in a product may also be retrieved from available databases. Agent data includes agent grades (which may be determined from grading or ranking agents on desired outcomes), agent demographic data, agent psychographic data, and other business-relevant data about the agent (individually or collectively referred to in this application as “agent data”), along with demographic, psychographic, and other business-relevant data about callers (individually or collectively referred to in this application as “caller data”). Agent and caller demographic data can comprise any of: gender, race, age, education, accent, income, nationality, ethnicity, area code, zip code, marital status, job status, credit score, and the like. Agent and caller psychographic data can comprise any of introversion, sociability, desire for financial success, film and television preferences, and the like. One method of determining agent demographic or psychographic data can involve surveying agents at the time of their employment or periodically throughout their employment such as agent grades, demographic, psychographic, and other business-relevant data, along with caller demographic, psychographic, and other business-relevant data. The learning machine matches each caller with each agent and estimates the probable outcome of each matching along a number of optimal interactions, such as the generation of a sale, the duration of contact, or the likelihood of generating an interaction that a customer finds satisfying.
The exemplary method may include determining caller data associated with one or more callers (e.g., a caller on hold), determining agent data associated with one or more agents (e.g., one or more available agents), comparing the agent data and the caller data with the transformers, and matching the caller to an agent to increase the chance of an optimal interaction. The learning machine predicts and recommends optimal interactions for every agent against every available caller. Alternatively, the computer model can comprise subsets of these, or sets containing the aforementioned sets. For example, instead of matching every agent logged into the contact center with every available caller, examples can match every available agent with every available caller, or even a narrower subset of agents or callers. Likewise, the present invention can match every agent that ever worked on a campaign-whether available or logged in or not-with every available caller. Similarly, the computer model can comprise predicted chances for one optimal interaction(s).
If best match is no possible, conventional routing via an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) queue order or the like is done by determining a queue order of the caller. For example, if other callers are on hold waiting for an available agent, the caller may be queued with other callers, e.g., a system may order the callers in terms of hold time and preferentially map those callers that have been holding the longest. The system then maps the agent that has been waiting or idle the longest with the caller that has been holding the longest. The caller may then be routed to the agent. The system can preferentially route callers to those agents shown to have greater ability to generate sales, can increase the chances of achieving greater sales during the contacts. Similarly, other agents may be shown to generate shorter interactions with callers than that of other agents at the same contact center. By preferentially routing contacts to the agents shown to generate shorter interactions with callers, a contact center or contact center client can decrease its overall need for agents and communication bandwidth, and therefore, reduce its costs.
The content generator suggests contents for the Website that are Topic Relevant, enabling website to be relevant to the topic and everything that is related and useful. High-scoring web pages do more than just provide sales copy or direct answers to questions. They also contain supporting information. Many times, one answer surfaces another question from the reader, so the system provides related answers and anticipate their needs. Include information the company knows customers will need - and haven’t thought of before. This can be done with the custom training data such as frequently asked questions (FAQs) and question and answers (Q&As) related to the industry overall and specifically the company.
The software provides a structured approach to content creation combined with structured data markup. The software anticipates answers and solutions in the content and grow the authority of the domain to grow. In one embodiment, search tools such as Moz are queried on a periodic basis and the system can update its semantic knowledge map to generate content with the following:
In addition, the system can convert existing web site content with the following:
Content Improvement: Rewriting web content with more conversational language.
Featured Snippets: Optimizing on page content to earn featured snippets atop organic results.
Schema Markup: Using structured data markup to tag elements of web pages and help search engines more accurately interpret them.
Production questions such as size, color, what a product is made of, etc., are things people are asking. Consumers are asking more questions related to a specific product before making a purchase. Follow the instructions carefully when implementing product markup. The system incorporates JSON-LD markup when possible and fitting. Reviewers often answer the questions other buyers are likely to ask. The system generates wording that aligns which purchase intent. On top of the page, the system creates a table of context, each jump-link taking the user to the part of the page answering each question. Creating jump links makes the work easier for a site visitors to quickly see just the answer that they want. Jump links to specific answers lessens your chances of a low bounce rate and improves crawling and indexing. The system automatically maintains the accuracy and freshness each product item’s schema. Maintaining a correct schema helps site’s content get featured in the PAA and for additional Related Questions.
Users want the best matching, concise answer immediately. With so many questions being asked, the system deciphers which answers are most needed. This helps structure the order for creating or optimizing that content. Voice searches are more conversational by nature when evaluated to text searches. Local searchers questions most often fall in this segmentation. When on the go and a need arises, people tend to speak a query. The system generates semantic knowledge mapping for both mobile and desktop search experience. The content generated by the system provides the audience with a road map to help them along their purchase journey. The common questions asked may vary at each stage; many fit long-tail keywords. For example early on consumers will likely be price comparison shopping, so their questions will center on value and use. Before pulling the trigger on a purchase, they may be asking about return policies and means of shipping.
The system generates Semantic Knowledge Mapping and generates contextual language instead of verbatim keywords. It focuses on the whole context of searcher’s queries. The content length is controlled to match a searcher’s intent which differs for detailed informational content and a quick answer in summary form. The system provides a semantic analysis of the natural language content, the system assists the web site content creator to locate the words in the creator’s original content that capture the real meaning of the original text and then suggests text elements to assign to their logical and grammatical role and build relationships between different concepts in the text that align with BERT.
The system can apply a knowledge-based library of concepts to help search engines detect different businesses or entities are ‘Known for’ or to define entities better connected relationships. Web pages for specific entities may gain top positioning in search results when user engagement history indicates that search intent may include that entity within a query. The Natural Language system discerns syntax, entities, and sentiment in text, and organizes text into a predefined set of categories. The resulting content is also highly succinct, with more factual content that is written by authoritative sources. It is also engaging.
The system can transform “traditional SEO copy-writing” to better match the SEO’s semantic search and update the Knowledge Graphs, entities. The system is optimized for the Searcher who Relies on Voice-Activated Searching which changes their search behavior from text input to spoken input. The system converts the original text into structured data markup that fits the context with entities along with their unique identifiers which may be used to help describe the content to search engines.
The system generates snippets, structured data, and knowledge graphs to answer people’s questions and to convert the website’s answers into featured snippets. Generating fresh and unique answer-rich content improves placement as a featured snippet. This is one means of giving the assistants more answer response material to match to spoken queries.
The text generation generates ontological markups or schema markups for entities on web page content, relationships to other entities, their connected relationships to attributes (properties) about those entities and the relationships to entity classifications. The system automatically generates a site’s architecture, ontologies, and structured data. The system can handle Query Segmentation related to segmenting out a specific query into units of a smaller size. The system can perform custom entity modeling - especially because entity understanding helps us communicate better with real consumers. The entities provide search engines with a better and deeper understanding of topics which in turn, enable information about the Entity to be delivered in any language (with live translation if necessary), since language has only a supportive role for the query - like a modifier. Whatever Entity Understanding and Entity Relationships the search engine learns in one language can automatically be translated to other languages in the Knowledge Graph. The computer-generated markups are optimized for Direct Answers or direct answers to queries, similar a Featured Snippet. The system provides correct product/service markup and anchor text to assist gaining the position of answering the query.
The computer-generated text leverages the transformer chat-bot contents that are conversational in nature. The content produced for a website or blog incorporates conversational language. With conversational sentences integrated into a website’s content, it will be simpler for users to find information on those subjects using text or voice search. A featured snippet is a block of text an SEO shows on the top of organic results for question queries, and the snippet can be used for voice assistant response.
The FAQs are provided with a question and answer schema to the FAQ as featured snippets. Schema code enables search engines to extract facts and information about entities for matching queries better. The site can associate the relationships between its content entities to their attributes and classifications. A confidence scores is then generated form relationships and added to Google’s library of answers it may draw from. It not only identifies each page’s highlights but is aware of notes, media elements, reviews and such within them, too.
One embodiment optimizes the SEO content for featured snippets. Search engines programmatically determines that a page contains a likely answer to the user’s question, and displays the result as a featured snippet displayed in typical search results and are accentuated with a special layout. Begin by determining what is a simple, straightforward question in your market space. Then, craft an equally simple and straightforward answer to that question. The content generated is a full answer to the question and address related issues with that particular question and answer occurring somewhere on that page in a very focused spot in the format of an itemized list or a paragraph shortening the answer so that computers and viewers can quickly spot it on the page. The domain has a strong trusted authority factor for featured snippets and the Knowledge Graph.
The process starts with the appropriate deep neural network architecture (for example, retrieval, generative, and retrieve/refine, transformer-based, BERT-based, GPT-based, among others) for a learning machine, and then performs the following:
As part of the analysis, the chatbot detects users with higher risk such as users with suppressed immune systems (cancer treatment or who have recently had an organ transplant), unvaccinated users that may be susceptible against common infectious diseases, healthcare workers, users who are at or traveling to at-risk areas where they may be exposed to mosquitoes that carry pathogens, among others.
In one implementation, vital signs from smart watches can be used to monitor core body temperature pattern, breathing pattern, coughing pattern, and walking/exercise patterns to detect changes indicative of an infectious disease. The breathing rate/pattern can be detected through EKG or other means. The coughing pattern can be detected by sound using a microphone, or can be done through body motions as detected by accelerometers, which also detect the walking/exercise patterns. Contact tracing can be done to detect group activities and associated people to see if there are group activities indicative of an outbreak in the group. Communications with members of such group are also used to infer on-set of the disease among the group.
Such information can be used when the chatbot asks the user for symptoms. Symptoms of infectious disease are particular to the type of disease. For example, Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. Symptoms of COVID-19 may include Fever or chills, Cough, Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, Fatigue, Muscle or body aches, Headache, New loss of taste or smell, Sore throat, Congestion or runny nose, Nausea or vomiting, Diarrhea, Trouble breathing, Persistent pain or pressure in the chest, New confusion, Inability to wake or stay awake, or Bluish lips or face, according to the CDC. Symptoms of influenza include: Fever, Chills, Congestion, Fatigue, Muscle aches and headache. Other infectious diseases, such as Shigella, cause more serious symptoms, including Bloody diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever, Dehydration (lack of fluid), and Shock.
The system also helps patients with chronic conditions, many of whom are foregoing urgent care out of fear of getting Covid-19 at the hospital. For example, if the user’s medical history shows hypertensive from the data, and if the user is not being treated for or charged for high blood pressure medicine, the system can alert the doctor and suggest medicine for their hypertension. The chatbot can detect situations maybe they were taking it, stopped taking it, and they haven’t gotten a refill because of Covid.
The chatbot can serve factual answers to user’s questions. Users often query a search engine with a specific question in mind and often these queries are keywords or sub-sentential fragments. The chatbot may rely on multiple methods to measure the matching degree between a question and an answer candidate.
The system becomes a source for trusted information on a topic of interest to the site clients and prospective buyers means that the web pages are successfully putting the user experience first. Schema, a semantic vocabulary of tags (or microdata), can be added to a site’s HTML code to enhance search engines’ ability to read and represent web pages in SERPs. While rich snippets do not directly influence a site’s rankings, structured data markup to enable rich snippets may generate indirect SEO paybacks by making your page more effortlessly indexable. It also informs search engines about what’s important to you in your content and does a better job with accurate and targeted metadata. The markup provides search engines with better structured content which in turn it can use to provide answers to searchers. It can affect rankings in SERPs and improve the domain authority of the website by indirectly influencing the page’s visibility through SERP featured snippets.
ClaimReview Schema markup is used to help search engines interpret your pages to fit the context of a search query. At a high level, claimReviewed, claimUrl, claimUrilOriginal are all attributes of ClaimReview. The system can use Google Data Search is surfacing new datasets that can be sourced to back up the computer-generated text’s claims. ClaimReview-based factcheck markup defines a structure that corresponds to the kind of information included in many fact-checking pages. The fundamental notion is a ClaimReview has an author (schema.org/author), which is typically an Organization (schema.org/Organization) (i.e. the fact checking organization or publisher), but could also be a Person (schema.org/Person). The claimReviewed (schema.org/claimReviewed) property of a ClaimReview (schema.org/ClaimReview) summarizes the claim being reviewed. This may include clarifications of the original wording to address intelligibility, civility, context or brevity, and can include translations. This value of the claimReviewed (schema.org/claimReviewed) property is typically a simple textual string (but could be a Claim (schema.org/Claim) with a text (schema.org/text) property, although this is not encouraged). The itemReviewed (schema.org/itemReviewed) property of ClaimReview (schema.org/ClaimReview) indicates specific manifestations of the claim being reviewed. This can either be a Claim (schema.org/Claim) [preferred] or [historically] a CreativeWork (schema.org/CreativeWork) within which the claim is described or reported. The value of itemReviewed (chema.org/itemReviewed) (preferably a Claim (schema.org/Claim) to avoid ambiguity) has an author (schema.org/author), which is a Person (schema.org/Person) or Organization (schema.org/Organization) that has made the claim. A Claim (schema.org/Claim) can be associated with a CreativeWork (schema.org/CreativeWork) it occurs in, using the appearance (schema.org/appearance) or firstAppearance (schema.org/firstAppearance)properties. This is preferable to describing appearances using itemReviewed (schema.org/itemReviewed) as it distinguishes more explicitly between the author (schema.org/author) of the Claim (schema.org/Claim) versus author (schema.org/author) of materials discussing those claims. The reviewRating (schema.org/reviewRating) property of the ClaimReview (schema.org/ClaimReview) indicates a Rating (schema.org/Rating) of the claim. A rating can be summarized textually with a alternateName (schema.org/alternateName) property, and with a numerical rating on a scale from worstValue (schema.org/worstValue) (lowest) to bestValue (schema.org/bestValue) (highest). The author (schema.org/author) (or creator (schema.org/creator), publisher (schema.org/publisher) of a ClaimReview (schema.org/ClaimReview), or of a Claim (schema.org/Claim), or CreativeWork (schema.org/CreativeWork), can be either an Organization (schema.org/Organization) or Person (schema.org/Person).
In another embodiment, the sensor(s) can collect vital signs such as temperature, heart rate, ECG, EEG, PPG, and bioimpedance, among others.

In one embodiment, the radio is a micro-positioning radio such as a 5G enabled micro-positioning radio. IOT modules include a computer processor connected to UWB via either a cable or via a socket connection. The modules also include a communication radio to send data to a separate processor for display. Modules can be placed on corners but can also be in a variety of components or added as a plug and play using magnets or other forms of temporary attachments. The modules can be placed on a support structure such as a room or a vehicle in a temporary fashion without manually measuring the position because the UWB can be used to range between modules and establish the room, office vehicle, lab, conference room, or cubicle as a constellation with known relative positions. The ranges between the modules are inputted to the software on the processor. The software uses the ranges to create a known geometric constellation of the UWB radios and then uses the known offset of the modules to calculate the relative locations of the modules to one another. These ranges are then used by the software on the processor to trilaterate to the external device. The relative location of the external device is used by software on the processor to produce a range and bearing to the potential target. Event Horizon Calculation is then done. The range and bearing are inputted to software that is running a main event loop to track the event horizon - the timing associated with a possible collision. The software stores the data in a linked list and uses this linked list to compare the current range and bearing to the previous range and bearing for that same external device. The distance between the current and previous locations is used to calculate rate of speed and the time associated with nearby people and then the radio ID of the nearby people can be recorded to enable accurate and rapid automated contact tracing. In this manner, contact tracing using mobile app, smart watches, and physical tracing is provided to rapidly contain infections. One embodiment provides a UWB Exposure Notification Service for proximity detection of nearby wearable devices and smartphones, and for the data exchange mechanism. Exposure Notification Service uses the UWB service for detecting device proximity. It uses a Temporary Exposure Key - A key that’s generated every 24 hours for privacy consideration. The result is a Diagnosis Key - The subset of Temporary Exposure Keys uploaded when the device owner is diagnosed as positive for the coronavirus. A Rolling Proximity Identifier which is a privacy preserving identifier derived from the Temporary Exposure Key can be sent in the broadcast of the UWB payload. The identifier changes about every 15 minutes to prevent wireless tracking of the device. An Associated Encrypted Metadata (AEM) is a privacy preserving encrypted metadata used to carry protocol versioning and transmit (Tx) power for better distance approximation. The Associated Encrypted Metadata changes about every 15 minutes, at the same cadence as the Rolling Proximity Identifier, to prevent wireless tracking of the device.
Another embodiment provides a smartphone app for employers that uses UWB signals (but Bluetooth can be used as well), Wi-Fi, GPS and other data to track where employees go around the office, who they come into contact with and for how long, to enable human resources or corporate security managers to quickly access the data in the event of a workplace outbreak and notify employees who may have been exposed. Employees will wear wristbands or carry credit card-size badges that collect UWB signals about their whereabouts and proximity to one another; that data is sent to devices that transmit it to the cloud. The chatbot identifies spots where infected workers may have recently gathered, enabling companies to shut down specific areas, rather than an entire building, for deep cleaning. The badges are preferred where employees are not allowed to bring their personal phones, as well as to people who would rather not have their employers track them on their smartphones. A Health Dashboard allows HR admins to view a list of their active employees, the most recent COVID-19 health status for each employee, and the date the record was last updated. Admins can view more details about each employee’s COVID-19 history (such as a list of test results over time), and can click to verify or re-verify an employee’s status. When an employer clicks “Verify”, the designated employee will receive a communication such as a text or an email taking them to a consent-based chatbot flow where they can securely share their COVID-19 health data with their HR team. The employee will be required to submit information such as recent lab test results, and the system may then verify that information with the lab itself. The employee can connect tracing apps to the platform, confirming they have not been in contact with an infected individual.
Office management will opt for the screening of all employees, vendors and visitors entering their facility based on the most appropriate methods for their particular space. These may include app-enabled questionnaires, temperature checks, newly installed thermal cameras or direct virus testing when it becomes more widely available. Hourly or daily screenings of employees, vendors and visitors, making it commonplace and fully integrated with the security access control system to screen out people presenting with symptoms or known to be infected. As the availability of testing increases, those carrying antibodies or testing negative for the virus will screen in and be allowed access. Lobbies include testing stations, screening queues, speed lanes, designated check in times and self-check kiosks. A building access control system is used as part of the contact tracing by mandating credential use for both entry and exit traffic for buildings, floors, tenant office suites and common areas at all times. UWB proximity data can be further supplemented via intelligent face recognition learning machines to investigate close personal contact for more detailed tracking so people who are impacted by pathogen exposure can be quickly and easily notified. The chatbot can monitor and manage real-time space occupancy, supplementing physical guides to reinforce social distancing with real-time data reporting to provide notifications for issues such as exceeding floor-level occupancy and suggest the need for greater social distancing if the number of people in a space is too high. Utilizing access control, the chatbot can assist tenants in enforcing staggered work schedules to minimize density.
By enabling a network of readily connected health and medical devices, people with Covid or infectious disease or other chronic diseases will be able to share vital sign information such as blood pressure and glucose level with their doctors. Adult children will be able to remotely watch over their aging parents and proactively help them manage safely in their own homes. Diet and fitness conscious individuals will also be able to seamlessly share their weight and exercise data with fitness consultants through the Internet. The above system forms an interoperable health-care system with a network; a first medical appliance to capture a first vital information and coupled to the network, the first medical appliance transmitting the first vital information conforming to an interoperable format; and a second medical appliance to capture a second vital information and coupled to the network, the second medical appliance converting the first vital information in accordance with the interoperable format and processing the first and second vital information, the second medical appliance providing an output conforming to the interoperable format. The appliances can communicate data conforming to the interoperable format over one of: cellular protocol, ZigBee protocol, Bluetooth protocol, WiFi protocol, WiMAX protocol, USB protocol, ultrawideband (UWB) protocol. UWB is a short-range, wireless communication protocol that uses a wide spectrum of several GHz. UWB acts as a radar that can continuously scan an entire room and precisely lock onto another UWB object or mobile device to discover its location and communicate data and for location discovery and device ranging with precision. The appliances can communicate over two or more protocols. The first medical appliance can transmit the first vital information over a first protocol (such as Bluetooth or UWB protocol) to a computer, wherein the computer transmits the first vital information to the second medical appliance over a second protocol (such as ZigBee prototocol). The computer can then transmit to a hospital or physician office using broadband such as WiMAX protocol or cellular protocol. The computer can perform the interoperable format conversion for the appliances or devices, or alternatively each appliance or device can perform the format conversion. Regardless of which device performs the protocol conversion and format conversion, the user does not need to know about the underlying format or protocol in order to use the appliances. The user only needs to plug an appliance into the network, the data transfer is done automatically so that the electronic “plumbing” is not apparent to the user. In this way, the user is shielded from the complexity supporting interoperability. In another aspect, a monitoring system for a person includes one or more wireless nodes and a stroke sensor coupled to the person and the wireless nodes to determine a medical problem, for example a stroke attack.

Advantages of the medical chatbot includes one or more of the following. The bot enables healthcare companies and government entities to reach patients and audience directly. The bot answers questions in a realistic and with empathy through engaging use of personality, knowledge and display of empathy. The length of the agent’s utterances is important in achieving better results with human evaluators. If they’re too short, the responses are dull and communicate a lack of interest; if they’re too long, the chatbot seems to waffle and not listen. The bots also use real time data from fitness monitoring devices such as smart watch and incorporate that information into the conversation and get timely assistance or care for the patient. The bot helps agencies save time and money on patient care. Patients and customers expect 24/7 availability, but they hate waiting on hold. They also ask many of the same questions over and over (and over) again. The bots greet potential customers, by identifying their needs, asking basic questions, (i.e., “Do you have any symptoms?”) and only direct urgent care issues to medical professionals. Bots can do the selling with the right script. With the bot, conversational commerce leaves room for personalized upselling as the bot makes suggestions. The bots are capable of retaining information, and those details can reach out personally, offering relevant content at the right time. The bot reminds employees to apply the hand sanitizer and cleaning wipes on the premises, and checks that their offices all be cleaned and sanitized frequently. The system reminds employees at appropriate time to conform to Social Distancing. Data from chatbot screening enables employees to feel comfortable coming back to their offices. A person who is known to be infected or showing symptoms is not to be allowed access. The system provides Privacy & Security. Like other sensitive healthcare information, COVID-19 status data needs to be handled extremely carefully by employers. Top of mind considerations include receiving consent from employees to share their health information, securing data infrastructure to store this info, and limiting access control to this information within the company. The system provides flexibility for multiple inputs. Guidance from government agencies and the scientific community is changing all the time on what an employer needs to verify to bring an employee back to work. This includes a combination of antibody test results, data pulled from contact tracing apps, and any history of confirmed infection. HR teams need to connect these inputs to a variety of human resources information systems (HRIS) to match active employee records with COVID-19 related data. With people consent, the system can combine different inputs (such as user-submitted information and trusted third-party sources) to verify this sensitive data while restricting access to employees and designated admins.
The GPT-2 is built using transformer decoder blocks. The model is constructed using the basic concept of Transformer, Attention, etc, for pre-training a dataset composed of Common Crawl, Wikipedia, WebText, Books and some additional data sources. The GPT-3 language model has 175 billion parameters. A parameter is a measurement in a neural network that deploys a large or small weightage to a few aspects of data, for providing that aspect larger or smaller importance in an entire measurement of the data. These are the weights that deliver shape to the data, and provide a neural network an understanding angle on the data. GPT-3 involves adjusted initialization, pre-normalization, and changeable tokenization. It reflects substantial performance on various NLP tasks and benchmarks in three distinct shots, i.e. zero-shot, one-shot and some-shot environments. BERT, on the other hand, uses transformer encoder blocks. One difference between the two is that GPT2, like traditional language models, outputs one token at a time, the model to predict the next token in a sequence, rather than converting one sequence to another functionally identical one. The output layer is modified to reflect the probability biasing. These models predict the next token in a sequence, rather than converting one sequence to another functionally identical one, and the output layer uses probability biasing discussed above.
The Encoder and Decoder are composed of modules that can be stacked on top of each other multiple times and the modules consist mainly of Multi-Head Attention and Feed Forward layers. The inputs and outputs (target sentences) are first embedded into an n-dimensional space since strings are not used directly. The positional encoding of the different words are added to the embedded representation (n-dimensional vector) of each word. One commonly used attention calculation can be:
where Q is a matrix that contains the query (vector representation of one word in the sequence), K are all the keys (vector representations of all the words in the sequence) and V are the values, which are again the vector representations of all the words in the sequence. For the encoder and decoder, multi-head attention modules, V consists of the same word sequence than Q. However, for the attention module that is considering the encoder and the decoder sequences, V is different from thesequence represented by Q. To simplify, the values in V are multiplied and summed with attention-weights a, defined by:
Weights a are defined by how each word of the sequence (represented by Q) is influenced by all the other words in the sequence (represented by K). Additionally, the SoftMax function is applied to the weights a to have a distribution between 0 and 1. Those weights are then applied to all the words in the sequence that are introduced in V (same vectors than Q for encoder and decoder but different for the module that has encoder and decoder inputs).
The attention-mechanism can be parallelized into multiple modules and is repeated multiple times with linear projections of Q, K and V. This allows the system to learn from different representations of Q, K and V. These linear representations are done by multiplying Q, K and V by weight matrices W that are learned during the training. Those matrices Q, K and V are different for each position of the attention modules in the structure depending on whether they are in the encoder, decoder or in-between encoder and decoder. The reason is that we want to attend on either the whole encoder input sequence or a part of the decoder input sequence. The multi-head attention module that connects the encoder and decoder will make sure that the encoder input-sequence is considered together with the decoder input-sequence up to a given position. After the multi-attention heads in both the encoder and decoder, the transformer has a pointwise feed-forward layer. This feed-forward network has identical parameters for each position, which can be described as a separate, identical linear transformation of each element from the given sequence.
While the system uses a standard transformer as described above, the process applies the above commonly used transformer architecture and tunes the training for long text generation that is guided by an outline so that the long form text is useful. This combines increased model size while sacrificing convergence by stopping training early. As larger models converge to lower test error in fewer gradient updates than smaller models, large models achieve higher accuracy faster for training and speed during inference is achieved using model compression. In the instant process, large models are used on large text clustered into specific groups or technology or market segments, or IPC code, for example. The output probabilities are biased according to a customization indicium data (for example the IPC mentioned above). Such training creates custom models for each context based on the output probabilities as biased. One embodiment uses quantization and pruning to reduce the inference latency and memory requirements of storing model weights. Quantization stores model weights in low precision and pruning sets predetermined NN weights to zero.
During inference, the process includes:
Input the full encoder sequence (a short phrase) and as decoder input, an empty sequence is used with only a start-of-sentence token on the first position. This will output a sequence with the first element.
That element will be filled into second position of the decoder input sequence, which now has a start-of-sentence token and a first word/character in it.
Input both the encoder sequence and the new decoder sequence into the model with the biased output probability incorporating the context sensitive data. Take the second element of the output and put it into the decoder input sequence.
Repeat this until done.
One embodiment predicts an end-of-sentence token, which marks the end of the phrase expansion into a sentence, paragraph, or long form text, among others.
Multiple runs through the model are used for the text expansion process.
The models can have different parameters of the Transformer, such as the number of decoder and encoder layers, and the results can be tuned and trained with large corpus for improving output.
In another embodiment for video inferencing, the process is trained on predicting an image (or brief video) and generating a longer video sequence. The process includes:
Input the full encoder sequence (a short phrase or starting image/video) and as decoder input, an empty sequence is used with only a start-of-video token on the first position. This will output a sequence with the first element.
That element will be filled into second position of the decoder input sequence, which now has a start-of-video token and a first image in it.
Input both the encoder sequence and the new decoder sequence into the model (optionally with the biased output probability incorporating the context sensitive data in another embodiment). Take the second element of the output and put it into the decoder input sequence.
Repeat this until done.
Multiple runs through the model are used for the video expansion process.
One embodiment generates videos from a milestone image. They can use transformers, GANs, and VAEs, or combinations thereof. One embodiment (
One embodiment uses the GAN with a spatio-temporal convolutional architecture that untangles the scene’s foreground from the background. This model can generate tiny videos up to a second at full frame rate better than simple baselines and can predict plausible futures of static images. The generator uses a deep convolutional network that inputs low-dimensional random noise and outputs a video. Spatiotemporal up-convolutions (2D for space, 1D for time) are used to model video. The generator also models the background separately from the foreground. The network produces a static background (which is replicated over time) and a moving foreground that is combined using a mask. A discriminator network is used to distinguish real videos from fake videos.
Another embodiment utilizes GANs with Spatial Transformer Networks (STNs) as the generator or Spatial Transformer GANs (ST-GANs). ST-GANs seek image realism by operating in the geometric warp parameter space. The ST-GAN can generate high-resolution images indirectly since the predicted warp parameters are transferable between reference frames.
Yet another embodiment uses Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) with two neural networks: an encoder comprised of convolutional layers that encode an object (image, text, sound) into a latent vector; and a decoder comprised of deconvolutional layers that decode a latent vector back into the object. As the autoencoder network reconstructs the data but cannot generate new objects, the variational autoencoder (VAE) requires an additional feature that allows it to learn the latent representations of the inputs as soft ellipsoidal regions rather than isolated data points. New data can be generated by sampling latent vectors from the latent space and passing them into the decoder.
The system can help expand the creativity of the user, and one embodiment applies the system for educational or other charitable purposes. Next, a method for financing education for a student studying at an institution by leveraging from the student’s creativity includes: providing an on-line creative work generation tool to the student to draft and submit a creative work as part of an entrance requirement, a class requirement or a graduation requirement; and receiving a completed creative work and checking creative work quality and upon passing acceptant criteria, rewarding the student or the institution with a grant to offset educational expenses for the student.
The above method includes one or more of the following implementation details:
Crowd-sourced quality assurance of the student’s creative work by having other students in the class rate, review and critique the creative work.
Crowd-sourced quality assurance of the student’s creative work by having the teacher or professor for the class rate, review and critique the creative work.
Crowd-sourced quality assurance of the student’s creative work by having an intra school competition where selected members of the school rate, peer-review and critique the creative work.
Crowd-sourced quality assurance of the student’s creative work by having an inter-school competition where judges rate, review and critique the creative work.
Crowd-sourced quality assurance of the student’s creative work by having industry-experts rate, review and critique the creative work.
Crowd-sourced quality assurance of the student’s creative work by having a creative work searcher rate, review and critique the creative work.
The system can rank the quality of the creative work by comparing the requested exclusivity to a library of white-spaces or open spaces for creative working.
The school can require each student to submit a creative work as part of the graduation requirement.
Criteria for grading the creative work can include detail/depth of solution based on number of figures/pages.
The system can establish a professional internship program by obtaining a sponsor contract with a sponsor for a full-time equivalent job internship position to commercialize the subject of the creative work; establishing a program by obtaining a license agreement for the creative work; and acquiring donations for the creative work.
The individual funds are tuition, vouchers, public vouchers, private vouchers, grants, and scholarships, government funds, charter funds.
The educational institution can be physical locations or can be virtual schools where students attend class over the Internet.
The sponsor can be a business, the school, a not-for-profit entity, or a government entity.
A college incentive program can be formed by providing the students direct subsidies for college or college loan repayment assistance upon sale of the creative work.
The student can form a venture to commercialize the idea. The venture can be funded by investors including alumni of the institution, angels, venture capitalists, crowdfunding, micro-funds, or microloans.
The institution can have a financial stake in the new venture in exchange for use of its assets, such as athletic facilities, classrooms, laboratories, libraries, media centers, fine art spaces, performing arts spaces, conference room, technology centers, and the brand name of the institution.
The funders can base their decisions on the novelty of the idea, the current commercial trends in the creative workspace associated with the creative work.
The funders can base their decisions on the students’ financial history, grade or educational ranking, and teacher recommendation.
The funders can purchase the creative work and bundle the application into bundles for sale or for use to license as a defense or counterclaim in a creative work litigation.
In one embodiment, when the student submits the creative work as part of the entrance or graduation requirement, the system checks for plagiarism. If plagiarism is detected, the submission is rejected, and school ethics officials are notified and the student faces an investigation and the penalty associated with cheating. Moreover, the student’s file is annotated on the social network profile and the credit rating for microloans is negatively affected. The plagiarism check includes checking the creative work that has been submitted as an individual’s own work against creative work database and a search engine.
One tool used to help grade the submission and rate the quality of the creative work or intangible asset employs information retrieval technique and/or a learning machine that examines the text of a set of exclusionary claims or requested exclusivity that defines, in technical terms, the extent, i.e. the scope, of the protection sought in an application to be submitted to an authority such as a government agency for example. In other words, the purpose of the claim or exclusivity is to define which subject-matter is protected upon issuance of the government grant. This is termed as the “notice function” of the exclusivity or claim-to warn others of what they must not do or copy. The corresponding creative works or intangible asset may then be ranked according to the degree to which their respective requested exclusivity sets represent significant innovation above and beyond existing work. For example, a creative work may be considered valuable if the subject matter in the creative work is cited by, relied upon, or expanded upon in subsequently filed creative works. In preferred embodiments and implementations, a user may interact in the process to refine the analysis.
Another embodiment of a system or method of financing or providing education utilizes an extension program for alumni to use the IP development program to leverage the connection with the school to get funding for a business idea. In an embodiment, the extension program is a subsidiary of the school, structured as a charitable organization. In one embodiment, each accepted creative work earns the student points in an account managed by the school. When the student has earned sufficient points, he or she can redeem the points at the school web site to assist the student or one or more other students to pay for higher-education costs such as books and other supplies.
In another embodiment, inventors not affiliated with the school can donate ideas and creative work to the school by submitting the concepts using the creative work generation system as donations and then can designate the resulting awards to be disbursed to students. The school acts as an escrow for the future monetization of the idea, and the school can provide a tax receipt showing a predetermined value for the idea based on market valuation so that the donor can get tax benefits and when future royalties arrive, the university can provide tax donation receipts to the donor using predetermined formulas. Thus, any monetization of such donated work will be credited to the donor in the form of tax benefits and good will as donors to the university, while all the rewards accrue for the benefit of the higher-education institution or direct to the students.
In another embodiment, an entrepreneur student can apply for micro-financing to move his/her idea to the marketplace. The student can also borrow small amounts to finance educational expenses. The microlender can make quick decisions from big data associated with cell phone and grade point information, among others. For example, cell phone usage can provide:
In another embodiment, micro-lending for a small amount such as $5 or more can be done by the system upon receipt of the creative work submission. The system can rate the creative work as detailed above, and additionally, the student credit rating can be inferred from his/her cell phone statistics, and grade point average and other data gleaned from the students’ social network activity. Based on the information, a regression can be done to estimate the probability of defaults so that the computer can allocate lending for educational use or for launching a venture based on the creative work concepts.
Other embodiments provide a method of financing expected future educational expenses by (a) calculating future educational expenses based on current educational expenses, past changes in educational expenses, and assumptions on annual increase rates of educational expenses; (b) establishing a target for future total investment payout for total future educational expenses based on calculated future educational expenses, and assumptions on expected investment yields; (c) deriving present investment amount needed to provide future educational expenses; (d) generating creative works or intangible assets to sell to satisfy the present investment amount and collecting payment of the present investment amount; and (e) investing the payment to provide funds for payment of the future educational expenses.
In another embodiment shown in
In another embodiment, a company can make available the system as a freemium system where users can try the system for free up to a predetermined number of drawings such as 3 figures. After that, the system offers continued usage for a fee or for a percentage of profit, for example. Ideas entered using the system can be securely tracked using Ethereum blockchain as detailed in U. S. Pat. 10195513 to the instant inventor, the content of which is incorporated by reference. The use of blockchain provides solid proof of conception and ownership in case the priority date is important, and the use of the instant methods enable rapid filing in a first to file system. The blockchain annotation also is proof that the system was used to generate the idea at a particular time to resolve any rights disputes.
In another embodiment, the system can be ad-supported. As new products are being generated, marketers, consultants, developers can offer to provide commercialization services to the user of the system or portal. As disclosed in U.S. Pat. Application 20060190807 to the instant inventor, the content of which is incorporated, after connecting to the portal, the assistant checks for the latest updates in his areas of Interest and show them in a small window at the bottom left portion of the screen. The client software performs multiple tasks, including establishing a connection to the portal; capturing demographic information; authenticating a user via a user ID and password; tracking Web-sites visited; managing the display of advertising banners; targeting advertising based on Web-sites visited and on keyword search; logging the number of times an ad was shown and the number of times an ad was clicked on; monitoring the quality of the online session including dial-up and network errors; providing a mechanism for customer feedback; short-cut buttons to content sites; an information ticker for stocks, sports and news; and a new message indicator. When the user accesses the portal, a background window is shown on his or her computer screen that is always visible while the user is online, regardless of where the user navigates. The window displays advertisements, advertiser-sponsored buttons, icons and drop-down menus. By clicking on items in the background window, users can navigate directly to sites and services such as news, laws, seminars and conferences, connections to others with similar interests, auctions & exchanges, lawyers, businesses, mediators between two companies contesting the same IP subject matter, forms such as a non-disclosure agreement, IP updates and market place updates. Revenues can be generated by selling advertisements and sponsorships on the background window and by referring users to sponsors’ Web-sites. The assistant shows advertisements while its window is visible. If the user clicks on an advertisement or news or related feature, the assistant will automatically launch the browser and take the user to the advertiser’s site. The portal incorporates data from multiple sources in multiple formats and organizes it into a single, easy-to-use menu. Information is provided to the public free-of-charge with value added databases and services such as patent drafting assistance available to subscribers who pay a subscription fee. At a first level, the public can use without charge certain information domains in the portal. At a second level, individual inventors, very small companies and academic users can access the patent drafting software when they subscribe to a first plan with a predetermined annual membership fee and a transaction fee charged per patent application. At a third level, companies can access additional resources such as an IP portfolio management system, a docket management system, a licensing management system, and a litigation management system, for example. In this manner, the portal flexibly and cost-effectively serves a variety of needs. Other resources that the portal provides access to include traders who mediate between potential licensors and licensees.
The portal also provides access to a bid, auction and sale system wherein the computer system establishes a virtual showroom which displays the IPs offered for sale and certain other information, such as the offeror’s minimum opening bid price and bid cycle data which enables the potential purchaser or customer to view the IP asset, view rating information regarding the IP asset and place a bid or a number of bids to purchase the IP asset. The portal has access to IP search engines that continuously search the web and identify information that is of interest to its users. These search engines will use the user profiles to search the web and store the results in the user folders. This information is also relayed to the users using the assistant. The portal delivers focused IP contents to interested subscribers and indirectly drives these subscribers and their businesses to innovate. The portal thus allows users to draft their own applications rapidly and accurately and in a manner that conforms to the requirements of the major national patent offices. Quality in the resulting patent application is achieved by providing an expert system in our software that guides members through each step of preparing an application. Speed is achieved by integrating the IP generation process with existing business workflow. When a communication from the patent office is received, the expert system guides the user through the process of responding. Since the member is generating the bulk of the work product, the cost in procuring the IP asset is reduce, while responsiveness is enhanced. A network of independent professionals such as lawyers can perform value-added pre-filing check to enhance the member’s work product, if desired. Information relating to the network of attorneys will be maintained in a searchable database. Thus, members can search by the attorney’s specific expertise (legal as well as technical) and by location. Members can then email the selected attorney a question. To prevent conflict issues, the members will be warned that the first question should be couched abstractly so that the invention is not revealed. Further, each attorney in the network automatically observes the applicable conflict rules in his or her jurisdiction before taking on the question. One or more attorneys in the network can respond to the first question to initiate the consultation process, if no conflict exists. The parties can then negotiate fees relating to subsequent questions and/or work. As such, the portal supports a market-based system for getting qualified assistance. The portal generates revenues by providing advertisement space to law firms, attorneys, patent-support businesses and corporations. By having access to the member’s IP interests, the Web site can provide pre-screened, high-quality investment opportunities that match the investor’s identified interests. The web site thus finds and adds value to potential deals, allows investors to invest from seed financing right through to the IPO, and facilitates the hand off to top tier underwriters for IPO. Additionally, members have access to a broad community of investors focused on the cutting edge of high technology, enabling them to work together as they identify and qualify investment opportunities for IP or other corporate assets.
In one embodiment, an incubator model can be used where the incubator provides access to the instant tools herein, and further provides access to an ecosystem of investors and start-up consultants that can help the entrepreneur with engineering/development, sales/marketing, production, human resource, banker, lawyers, among others. In another embodiment, the system can be part of a crowdfunding platform where entrepreneurs can establish connection with investors via four different funding options (smart contracts) offered on the marketplace (donation, debt, revenue share, and equity).
Investors who wish to support an entrepreneur’s creative idea/project have the opportunity to purchase branded tokens backed by the IP created using the instant system. Investors can pay in any tokens/coins or direct Ethereum blockchain transactions to buy the tokens. The investor’s contribution is sent to Vault (secured money storage within smart contract). If the crowdsale wasn’t successful, all the money from Vault is returned to the investors automatically. Once the funds are raised through the crowdsale, the “Production” stage of the project is launched. From this point, all received funds are stored in “Vault” and do not go directly to the entrepreneur. After successful completion of the crowdsale, the entrepreneur receives funds for the first step in the contract.
If the entrepreneur uses the Revenue Share approach, the token may be a security and SEC registration may be needed. If the entrepreneur wishes to avoid security registration requirement, s/he can tokenize the asset and sell tokens to fund the project or borrow based on the asset. Buyers of such tokenized IP can have a use license, among others. The smart contract dictates the terms for the project’s development. The terms of the offering are embedded in the smart contract. Upon successfully completing each term, the smart contract automatically moves stakeholder money as further financing. Stakeholders vote on whether or not the step was completed if “YES”, the entrepreneur automatically receives the next portion of funds and otherwise unused funds from Vault are returned to investors. The project may or may not have a Bucket to store funds earned along the way. For the Revenue Share, and Debt smart contracts, the entrepreneur must deduct a specified amount of money into the contract’s “bucket”. Once the business begins to profit, the funds from the bucket are distributed amongst token holders. The accrual of “Revenue Share” and “Debt” contracts is extracted from the bucket at the monthly or weekly payments intervals. The smart contract can be Ethereum based or any suitable cryptocurrency. In another embodiment, instead of investing in the asset, the investor can invest in the entrepreneur himself/herself.
In one embodiment, as detailed in Publication 20130317994 to the instant inventor, the content of which is incorporated by reference, the automated text generation can be used in the framework for converting an idea to tangible asset. An exemplary creative work disclosure view or form receives a title, which is descriptive of the creative work, and should be less than 500 characters. As the user enters text into the title, the software automatically retrieves potentially interesting or similar creative works, references, or publications in the right column. The user can click on each document, and a PDF file for the document will be saved in a project directory and opened for his/her review. The user can use these documents as writing samples, and to see if they are relevant to the user’s creative work and if so he/she can focus text and diagrams to focus or emphasize aspects that will differentiate the creative work from the publication or reference. In case the user is not familiar with the format of creative work documents, the PDF document will provide the user with example writing style to follow. The user may want to review the results to see if others have thought of the same creative work already and if so, the user may want to abandon the filing effort. Seeing how similar concepts are described in professionally written creative works may also be helpful to the user in drafting his or her own text and can be an excellent way to learn how creative works are written. Relevant documents are then saved for citing to the government agency when required. The Background section is a brief description of the issues or problems to be solved by the creative work. It sets up the need for the creative work. The user may want to describe existing solutions to these problems. In one implementation, a spell-checker is used to highlight potential errors. Instead of focusing on the shortcomings of existing solutions in the Background section, it may be advantageous to focus on how the user’s creative work is superior to existing solution(s), and such description should be positively recited as advantages of the preferred embodiment in the Summary section. The Summary section captures what the user considers to be the highlights of the creative work. The user should describe the creative work at a high level and reference only essential components or elements making up the creative work. Non-essential or optional elements should be described later in the Detailed Description section along with the drawings illustrating their relationships to the essential elements. Alternatively, the user can list the optional elements in a separate paragraph that begins with an introductory sentence such as “Implementations of the system can include one or more of the following”. The Background section thus collects basic information about the creative work. The user can enter the title or name of the creative work in the first text region. In the second text region, the user can enter background information relating to the creative work, and in the third text region, the user can enter a brief summary of the creative work.
In editing a figure and describing the figure, a series of drawings is prepared that illustrate the operation of exact embodiments or implementations of the user’s creative work. The user will also want to generate drawings for alternative ways to implement the creative work to prevent others from designing-around the implementation of the creative work. The drawings can be done by hand and digitized using a scanner or a camera. Alternatively, the user can generate these diagrams using tools such as PowerPoint and Visio, among others, and import them or directly import images (jpeg or png). If the creative work cannot be illustrated, but can be described using photographs, the user can take pictures of the creative work and include them in the application. The picture can be taken from a standard digital camera or can be done using a tablet or cell phone’s camera. After the images have been generated, easy to use tools help users import or capture drawings and describe these drawings in detail. The user can annotate these drawings with numbers up front or can use a tool to place or mark reference numerals for elements. Tools are provided to help the user easily and quickly indicate element names and check consistency of usage from his or her text entry. Thumbnails of each drawing are shown in a top bar. When the user clicks on the image thumbnail, an enlarged figure is shown on the bottom left, while text associated with the figure is shown on the right column.
For example, in one implementation, the user can annotate the drawing by clicking a pointer such as a mouse pointer near the desired area. A box with a red dot appears. The red dot is the tip of a pointer arrow. The user can drag the red dot to point it to the correct spot in the figure where the user wants the text to be associated with. The user can also select the number and move the number to a desired position. The box has an automatically generated number that can be changed. Further, the user can add descriptive text after the number to provide more information. If the user enters text after the number, a colon will be shown to separate the text from the number. During printing of the figure, the descriptive text after the number will be suppressed. When the user clicks a mouse pointer near the desired area, a box with a red dot appears. The red dot is the tip of a pointer arrow. The user can drag the red dot to point it to the correct spot in the figure where the user wants the text to be associated. The user can also select the number and move the number to a desired position. The box has an automatically generated number that can be changed. Further, the user can add descriptive text after the number to provide more information. If the user enters text after the number, a colon will be shown to separate the text from the number. During printing of the figure, the descriptive text after the number will be suppressed. When the user clicks on the pointer or the element number, the number is shown, along with a red dot indicating the tip of the pointer. The user can drag the red dot to point to a desired end target on the drawing. The user can also drag the number to a desired beginning target.
In an exemplary process to generate the detailed description of the creative work, the process gets the initial disclosure as well as noun phrases and requested exclusivity elements. Next, for each reference or noun phrase, the process automatically suggests text for use or alternatively asks the user to provide more details on the element and on the relationship with other elements. The process prompts the user to associate a number with a noun phrase. In one embodiment, the noun phrase is automatically generated for the user and the user can edit/add/delete the number as desired. In another embodiment, the user can directly assign a number to an element. The process then asks the user to generate drawing(s) illustrating the part number on the drawing(s).
Pseudo-code for performing noun phrase detection in a claim is:
To create money to support the students and the educational institutions, the system can monetize the Creative assets by selling and/or licensing the Creative assets. The system can auction one creative work at a time on an auction site similar to ebay, for example. In such as system, interested parties bid on the asset and the highest bidder is awarded the asset.
One embodiment provides the ability to provide a pricing request associated with a single Creative asset. The method includes receiving one or more orders for each IP listing symbol, selecting an order from the one or more orders with consideration of available volume, associated prices, and applying the process to a portfolio of assets wherein an optimized asset pricing across the portfolio is presented to the seller in association with the request to optimize the pricing of a single or multiple asset order in a form which includes, but is not limited to, a list of symbols and associated transaction size and price.
Unique to a market for structured IP products is the ability to list single assets for sale under multiple listing symbols, in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work. Such work can be tied to a blockchain entry. The ability to list a portfolio of single assets represented by a plurality of technology codes or listing symbols enables sellers and buyers to maximize revenue generated by the sale of the assets or minimize the expense generated by the purchase of the assets, respectively. In the improved systems, methods, and computer program products, a seller of the structured Creative assets requests the technology codes or listing symbols, which would represent the optimal price for the possible sale of an asset or portfolio of assets. In a variation, a buyer is provided with the optimal technology code or listing symbol or symbols for the purchase of an asset or portfolio of assets.
Another embodiment includes receiving, by one or more computing devices, an inventory description of an Creative asset for sale; generating, by the one or more computing devices, plurality of sell orders each representing the Creative asset using a different combination of attributes of the Creative asset, wherein the attributes represent characteristics of technology; prioritizing, by the one or more computing devices the plurality of sell orders to generate an order posting subset of the plurality of sell orders in accordance with historical data associated with the plurality of sell orders; and posting, by the one or more computing devices, the Creative asset for sale under each of the sell orders of the order posting subset concurrently, wherein each of the sell orders of the of the order posting subset is usable to match a buy order with the Creative asset, and wherein matching the buy order with any one of the sell orders of the order posting subset cancels the remaining of the sell orders of the order posting subset.
The system can post the asset for sale under each of the sell orders of the order posting subset concurrently comprises posting the Creative asset for sale using a plurality of listing symbols assigned to the Creative asset.
The organized electronic marketplace will be referred to by several names throughout this disclosure, including by reference to components such as a brokerage system. One skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that behavior attributed to any of these components can be allocated to different components of the overall system while achieving the same desired effect.
The process begins where the creative asset company makes available access rights and audience profile access rights within the organized electronic market for structured Creative assets queries third party publisher traffic/volume data (e.g., analytic data) to establish its future capacity to create commercialization opportunities and audience profile access opportunities.
The creative asset Buyer provides viewer profile data and displays creative asset inventory data to the brokerage system, in accordance with an embodiment of the creative work. With the necessary data for verification of the structured Creative assets available, the brokerage system then cleanses the data, in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work. In particular, the data from various supported external third-party analytics providers (e.g., Thomson, Lexis, among others) is reviewed to delete anomalies in the data likely to represent errors or non-conforming asset structures.
Once the verification data has been imported and cleansed, the data can be reviewed for approval, in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work. With the data approved, it is possible to create and allocate assets into the creative asset Buyer’s account with the brokerage system. The profile data and the traffic/volume data are combined, and the system then parses the data at step 106 in preparation to post the assets to the publisher’s account (IP Producer’s account), in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work. Parsing the data allows the brokerage system to account for a variety of third-party analytics providers, each having their own unique formats for publishing analytics data.
In accordance with a further embodiment of the present creative work, if the inventory to be offered by the Audience Producer represents online display advertising inventory, then the brokerage system checks for the validity of the display space inventory by querying the location of the display space. If the system finds that the descriptive display space data does not match the results of the query, the system will assign an expired or error status to the display space access right and remove the inventory from the Audience Producer’s account. When the brokerage system finds that the descriptive display space data matches what is queried, or alternatively when the media is not callable (e.g., offline assets, although one skilled in the relevant arts will appreciate that these techniques can be converted for application to other non-web assets), the inventory is processed through the symbology assignment process, which is described in further detail below, in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work. Once symbols have been assigned to the asset, the Audience Producer instructs the brokerage system to offer its inventory for sale at step 109, in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work. In particular, once the Audience Producer’s inventory has been verified, had symbols assigned, and posted to the Audience Producer’s account, the Audience Producer can then sell or otherwise trade on their inventory. By way of non-limiting example, the Audience Producer can trade their inventory through the offer posting process and the bid/offer matching process.
In the above example, the brokerage system is configured to use the data imported to estimate the number of creative workspace access rights and audience profile access rights that will be available for advertising placement during a broadcast. The creative asset Producer additionally imports publishers display space inventory data, which describes the attributes of the display space made available by the creative asset Producer. The creative workspace descriptive data and the audience profile data are then cleansed where anomalies in the data likely to represent errors or non-conforming asset structures may be discovered and removed.
With the data cleansed, the brokerage system approves the data for processing. The brokerage system then parses the data to assign individual display space attributes to a creative workspace access right asset and audience profile attribute to an audience profile access right asset, in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work.
For creative workspace access rights, the system may, subject to certain parameters, automatically verify the presence and characteristic of the creative workspace. If the system finds that the descriptive creative workspace data does not match what is queried by the buyer, the system will assign an expired or error status to the access right and remove the inventory from the creative asset Producer’s account. If everything is in order, the assets are provided with symbology through the symbology assignment process. The assets are then posted to the creative asset Producer’s (publisher) account. Once the assets are in the account the creative asset Producer (e.g., inventor) may offer inventory for sale from the assets in the account, using a user interface provided by the brokerage system. With an offer to sell in place, the offer is processed through the offer posting process and then the bid/offer matching process to initiate the transaction in accordance with an embodiment of the present creative work.
One embodiment takes an entity’s portfolio of assets and groups them into assets that can be subject to a floating privilege and those that the entity does not make available to others. The portfolio of assets represents the total set of assets the entity owns that could be subject to transfer to another. The entity, also referred to as the asset portfolio owner, or portfolio owner, is a corporation and assets are assets and creative works in particular. It will be understood that the assets are not limited to creative work or assets, but can be other types of assets in which rights can be transferred to others. The portfolio owner might own thousands of creative works (P). In this example, the creative asset owner owns “n” creative works, where n is a positive integer. The creative asset owner, in this example, has designated “m” of its creative works P1 to Pm as eligible for selection for transfer to the holders of a floating privilege upon the occurrence of a predetermined event, thereby forming a floating privilege pool, where m is a positive integer less than n. This floating privilege pool is also referred to as a dynamic asset pool, or more simply a “pool”. In this example, three of the creative asset owner’s clients, A, B and C, each have purchased a floating privilege for the assets in the floating privilege pool 101. The creative asset owner’s remaining creative works, Pm+1 to Pn, are not included in the floating privilege pool, but rather are held by the creative asset owner for its own exclusive use. Although creative works P1 to Pm are shown in the floating privilege pool, the specific creative works in the pool may change due to the dynamic nature of the pool. The portfolio owner’s portfolio of assets 100 can be divided into a floating privilege pool containing creative works P1 to Pm and also contains a custom floating privilege pool. The custom floating privilege pool contains creative works Pm+1 to Pp, where p is a positive integer greater than m and less than n. In this embodiment client D has contracted with the creative asset owner to have a floating privilege to the custom floating privilege pool. Custom pool is a dynamic asset pool in that the creative works within the pool can change over time. Alternatively, client D can agree with the creative asset owner to limit the changes to the custom pool. For example, the contract between the creative asset owner and client D can specify that the certain creative works remain in the custom pool while others may change. The portfolio owner’s portfolio of assets also divided into a floating privilege pool 101 containing creative works P1 to Pm and containing a custom floating privilege pool. The remaining creative works in the portfolio consist of creative works Pp+1 to Pn. The custom floating privilege pool 303 contains creative works that also are included in the floating privilege pool. Accordingly, the custom floating privilege pool contains creative works Pm-q to Pp, where q is a positive integer less than m and p is greater than m and less than n. Creative works Pm-q to Pm are common to both the floating privilege pool and the custom floating privilege pool since they are contained in both pools. Accordingly, clients A, B, C and D each have a floating privilege for the common assets in the two pools.
Due to the diversity of the creative work portfolio, the creative asset company can extract value from a portfolio of assets, for example creative works, utilizing a floating privilege, for example a floating assignment privilege, is summarized by granting to a client for consideration by an asset portfolio owner a floating privilege to a dynamic set of assets, such as a set of creative works, wherein the floating privilege is a right to obtain an interest in one or more of the assets in the dynamic set upon the occurrence of a predetermined event. By employing the techniques described here, a client that lacks a large asset portfolio can have access to the creative asset collective owner’s portfolio in a time of need. The client rights to these assets could be publicized so that anyone considering suing the client would have to consider all of the assets at the client’s disposal for counterclaims. In this way, a floating privilege to a dynamic asset pool provides both a deterrent value and an enhanced ability for the client to fend off such lawsuits. The right, or option, is not for any specific asset, since the set of assets is considered to be dynamic following the establishment of a floating privilege. The set or pool of assets is dynamic because no particular asset is guaranteed to exist at a later time. The right to obtain an interest in one or more of the assets is a privilege that is not tied to any particular asset in the pool of assets, but rather floats over the assets so that it can be applied to any of the assets in the pool. When the privilege is executed, an interest is obtained to one or more assets selected from the presently available assets within the dynamic set of assets at the time the privilege is executed. By agreement, while the set of assets covered by the floating privilege is dynamic, the number of assets in the set is typically constrained in some way to ensure continuing value to the client.
An example of such a predetermined event can be the initiation of a creative work infringement action by a third party against the client. The client can then use the floating privilege to select one or more creative works from among the set of assets associated with the privilege to assert against the third party. Executing the privilege can include granting sufficient rights in the selected creative works to give the client standing to sue the third party for infringement of those creative works. For example the client can be granted an exclusive license in the creative works or the selected creative works can be assigned to the client. A predetermined event, as used within the context of this specification for the purpose of executing a floating privilege, may be referred to herein as a “trigger event”. Thus, clients A-D can buy creative work infringement insurance from the creative work pool owner who in turn uses the money to pay at least a portion of the students/educational institution.
The system can operate with edge computing-moving computation and data storage away from large centers and relying more heavily on local storage and caching, with reduced energy footprints. One embodiment relies on transformers in the cellular base stations located near a mobile device (such as transformers running on a 5G base station in communication with a mobile device).
Embodiments are described herein with reference to flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams of methods, apparatus (systems), and computer program products according to embodiments. It will be understood that each block of the flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams, and combinations of blocks in the flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams, can be implemented by computer readable program instructions. Computer readable program instructions described herein can be stored in memory or downloaded to respective computing/processing devices from a computer readable storage medium or to an external computer or external storage device via a network, for example, the Internet, a local area network, a wide area network and/or a wireless network. The network may comprise copper transmission cables, optical transmission fibers, wireless transmission, routers, firewalls, switches, gateway computers and/or edge servers. A network adapter card or network interface in each computing/processing device receives computer readable program instructions from the network and forwards the computer readable program instructions for storage in a computer readable storage medium within the respective computing/processing device. The computer readable storage medium can be a tangible device that can retain and store instructions for use by an instruction execution device. The computer readable storage medium may be, for example, but is not limited to, an electronic storage device, a magnetic storage device, an optical storage device, an electromagnetic storage device, a semiconductor storage device, or any suitable combination of the foregoing. Computer readable program instructions for carrying out operations may be assembler instructions, instruction-set-architecture (ISA) instructions, machine instructions, machine dependent instructions, microcode, firmware instructions, state-setting data, configuration data for integrated circuitry, or either source code or object code written in any combination of one or more programming languages, including an object oriented programming language such as Smalltalk, C++, or the like, and procedural programming languages, such as the “C” programming language or similar programming languages. Python has a large amount of libraries that are super handy for implementing sentiment analysis or machine learning from scratch. NLTK, or the Natural Language Toolkit, is one of the leading libraries for building Natural Language Processing (NLP) models, thus making it a top solution for sentiment analysis. It provides useful tools and algorithms such as tokenizing, part-of-speech tagging, stemming, and named entity recognition. SpaCy is an industrial-strength NLP library in Python which can be used for building a model for sentiment analysis. It provides interesting functionalities such as named entity recognition, part-of-speech tagging, dependency parsing, and word vectors, along with key features such as deep learning integration and convolutional neural network models for several languages. Scikit-learn is a machine learning toolkit for Python that is excellent for data analysis. It features classification, regression, and clustering algorithms. TensorFlow is the dominant framework for machine learning in the industry. It has a comprehensive ecosystem of tools, libraries, and community resources that lets developers implement state-of-the-art machine learning models. PyTorch is another popular machine learning framework that is mostly used for computer vision and natural language processing applications. Developers love PyTorch because of its simplicity; it’s very pythonic and integrates really easily with the rest of the Python ecosystem. PyTorch also offers a great API, which is easier to use and better designed than TensorFlow’s API. Keras is a neural network library written in Python that is used to build and train deep learning models. It is used for prototyping, advanced research, and production. CoreNLP is Stanford’s proprietary NLP toolkit written in Java with APIs for all major programming languages to extract the base of words, recognize parts of speech, normalize numeric quantities, mark up the structure of sentences, indicate noun phrases and sentiment, extract quotes, and much more. OpenNLP is an Apache toolkit designed to process natural language text with machine learning and supports language detection, tokenization, sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, named entity extraction, chunking, parsing, and conference resolution. Weka is comprised of a set of machine learning algorithms for data mining tasks. It includes tools for data preparation, classification, regression, clustering, association rules mining, and visualization. R is a programming language that is mainly used for statistical computing. Its most common users include statisticians and data miners looking to develop data analysis. Caret package includes a set of functions that streamline the process of creating predictive models. It contains tools for data splitting, pre-processing, feature selection, model tuning via resampling, and variable importance estimation. Mlr is a framework that provides the infrastructure for methods such as classification, regression, and survival analysis, as well as unsupervised methods such as clustering.
The computer readable program instructions may execute entirely on the user’s computer, partly on the user’s computer, as a stand-alone software package, partly on the user’s computer and partly on a remote computer or entirely on the remote computer or server. In the latter scenario, the remote computer may be connected to the user’s computer through any type of network, including a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN), or the connection may be made to an external computer (for example, through the Internet using an Internet Service Provider). In some embodiments, electronic circuitry including, for example, programmable logic circuitry, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA), or programmable logic arrays (PLA) may execute the computer readable program instructions by utilizing state information of the computer readable program instructions to personalize the electronic circuitry, in order to perform embodiments.
Additionally, it is understood in advance that the teachings recited herein are not limited to a particular computing environment. Rather, embodiments are capable of being implemented in conjunction with any type of computing environment now known or later developed. For example, cloud computing is a model of service delivery for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (for example, networks, network bandwidth, servers, processing, memory, storage, applications, virtual machines, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction with a provider of the service. The software/system may be offered based the following service models:
Software as a Service (SaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider’s applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (for example, web-based e-mail). The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities.
Platform as a Service (PaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including networks, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.
Infrastructure as a Service (laaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (for example, host firewalls).
A cloud computing environment is service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability. At the heart of cloud computing is an infrastructure comprising a network of interconnected nodes. Deployment Models are as follows:
Private cloud: the cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.
Community cloud: the cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (for example, mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). It may be managed by the organizations or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.
Public cloud: the cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.
Hybrid cloud: the cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (for example, cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds).
