Methods, systems and computer program products are provided personalizing recommendations of items with associated explanations. The example embodiments described herein use contextual bandits to personalize explainable recommendations (“recsplanations”) as treatments (“Bart”). Bart learns and predicts satisfaction (e.g., click-through rate, consumption probability) for any combination of item, explanation, and context and, through logging and contextual bandit retraining, can learn from its mistakes in an online setting.

An augmented reality (AR) overlay augments traditional menu items with corresponding photos, thereby facilitating a decision-making process of a user ordering from the menu. In addition to providing imagery of the menu items listed, other information may also be supplied, such as ratings, reviews etc. In this regard, users can visualize what to expect before ordering, and can order with a greater degree of confidence that they will enjoy the menu item they select.

A bipartite application implements a table auto-completion (TAC) algorithm on the client side and the server side. A client module runs a local model of the TAC algorithm on a user device and a server module runs a global model of the TAC algorithm on a server machine. The local model is continuously adapted through on-the-fly training, with as few as a negative example, to perform TAC on the client side, one document at a time. Knowledge thus learned by the local model is used to improve the global model on the server side. The global model can be utilized to automatically and intelligently extract table information from a large number of documents with significantly improved accuracy, requiring minimal human intervention even on complex tables.

A convolutional neural network includes a pooling unit. The pooling unit performs pooling operations between convolution layers of the convolutional neural network. The pooling unit includes hardware blocks that promote computational and area efficiency in the convolutional neural network.

Systems and methods for periodically modifying data privacy elements are provided. The systems and methods may identify a set of data privacy elements. A data privacy element can characterizes a feature of a computing device and can be detectable by a network host. A first artificial profile can be generated by modifying a first data privacy element based on an artificial profile model that defines a relationship associated with one or more constraints between the set of data privacy elements. Subsequent to generating the first artificial profile, a second artificial profile can be generated by periodically modifying a second data privacy element in accordance with the relationship defined by the artificial profile model. The computer device can be masked from being identified by the network host by sending the second artificial profile including the second data privacy element to a requested network location.

In one embodiment, a supervisory service for a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) obtains telemetry data from one or more edge devices in the SD-WAN. The service trains, using the telemetry data as training data, a machine learning-based model to predict tunnel failures in the SD-WAN. The service receives feedback from the one or more edge devices regarding failure predictions made by the trained machine learning-based model. The service retrains the machine learning-based model, based on the received feedback.

Described herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for validating or rejecting automated detections of an entity being tracked within an environment in order to generate a track representative of a travel path of the entity within the environment. The automated detections of the entity may be generated by an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm. The track may represent a travel path of the tracked entity across a set of image frames. The track may contain one or more tracklets, where each tracklet includes a set of validated detections of the entity across a subset of the set of image frames and excludes any rejected detections of the entity. Each tracklet may also contain one or more user-provided detections in scenarios in which the tracked entity is observed or otherwise known to be present in an image frame but automated detection of the entity did not occur.

A method and apparatus for processing image data is provided. The method includes the steps of employing a main processing network for classifying one or more features of the image data, employing a monitor processing network for determining one or more confusing classifications of the image data, and spawning a specialist processing network to process image data associated with the one or more confusing classifications.

The present disclosure describes human body attribute recognition methods and apparatus, electronic devices, and a storage medium. The method includes acquiring a sample image containing a plurality of to-be-detected areas being labeled with true values of human body attributes; generating, through a recognition model, a heat map of the sample image and heat maps of the to-be-detected areas to obtain a global heat map and local heat maps; fusing the global and the local heat maps to obtain a fused image, and performing human body attribute recognition on the fused image to obtain predicted values; determining a focus area of each type of human body attribute according to the global and the local heat maps; correcting the recognition model by using the focus area, the true values, and the predicted values; and performing, based on the corrected recognition model, human body attribute recognition on a to-be-recognized image.

An analysis device includes an analysis unit configured to receive scattered light, transmitted light, fluorescence, or electromagnetic waves from an observed object located in a light irradiation region light-irradiated from a light source and analyze the observed object on the basis of a signal extracted on the basis of a time axis of an electrical signal output from a light-receiving unit configured to convert the received light or electromagnetic waves into the electrical signal.
