489 results about "Decision rule" patented technology

In decision theory, a decision rule is a function which maps an observation to an appropriate action. Decision rules play an important role in the theory of statistics and economics, and are closely related to the concept of a strategy in game theory.

Machine translation techniques

Machine translation decoding is accomplished by receiving as input a text segment in a source language to be translated into a target language, generating an initial translation as a current target language translation, applying one or more modification operators to the current target language translation to generate one or more modified target language translations, determining whether one or more of the modified target language translations represents an improved translation in comparison with the current target language translation, setting a modified target language translation as the current target language translation, and repeating these steps until occurrence of a termination condition. Automatically generating a tree (e.g., either a syntactic tree or a discourse tree) can be accomplished by receiving as input a tree corresponding to a source language text segment, and applying one or more decision rules to the received input to generate a tree corresponding to a target language text segment.

System and method for correlating historical attacks with diverse indicators to generate indicator profiles for detecting and predicting future network attacks

An apparatus and method predict and detect network attacks by using a diverse set of indicators to measure aspects of the traffic and by encoding traffic characteristics using these indicators of potential attacks or anomalous behavior. The set of indicators is analyzed by supervised learning to automatically learn a decision rule which examines the temporal patterns in the coded values of the set of indicators to accurately detect and predict network attacks. The rules automatically evolve in response to new attacks as the system updates its rules periodically by analyzing new data and feedback signals about attacks associated with that data. To assist human operators, the system also provides human interpretable explanations of detection and prediction rules by pointing to indicators whose values contribute to a decision that there is an existing network attack or an imminent network attack. When such indictors are detected, an operator can take remediation actions.

Apparatus and method for prediction and management of participant compliance in clinical research

A system for developing and implementing empirically derived algorithms to generate decision rules to determine participant noncompliance and fraud with research protocols in clinical trials allows for the identification of complex patterns of variables that detect or predict participant noncompliance and fraud with research protocol, including performance and enrollment goals, in the clinical trial. The data may be used to overall predict the performance of any participant in a clinical trial, allowing selection of participants that tend to produce useful, high-quality results. The present invention can also be used to monitor participant compliance with the research protocol and goals to determine preferred actions to be performed. Optionally, the invention may provide a spectrum of noncompliance, from minor noncompliance needing only corrective feedback, to significant noncompliance requiring participant removal from the clinical trial or from future clinical trials. The algorithms and decision rules can also be domain-specific, such as detecting non-compliance or fraud among subjects in a cardiovascular drug trial, or demographically specific, such as taking into account gender, age or location, which provides for algorithms and decision rules to be optimized for the specific sample of participants being studied.

Method and system for recognizing the intentions of shoppers in retail aisles based on their trajectories

The present invention is a method and system for automatically recognizing which products a shopper intends to find or purchase based on the shopper's trajectory in a retail aisle. First, the system detects and tracks the person to generate the trajectory of the shopper. Then some of the dynamic features are extracted from the shopper trajectory. The shopper trajectory features of a given trajectory are typically the positions, the motion orientations, and speeds at each point of the trajectory. A shopper behavior model is designed based on some of the primitive actions of shoppers. The last step of the method is to analyze a given shopper trajectory to estimate the shopper's intention. The step either utilizes decision rules based on the extracted shopper trajectory features, or utilizes a trained Hidden Markov Model, to estimate the progression of the primitive actions from the trajectory. The decoded progression of the shopper behavior states is then interpreted to finally determine the shopper's intention.

Character recognition

Character recognition includes detecting a union of characters, preprocessing the union of characters, comparing the preprocessed union of characters with one or more template symbols, and applying a decision rule to either reject a template symbol or decide that the template symbol is included in the union of characters. Such preprocessing involves representing the union of characters as one or more curves, and parameterizing the curve(s); and, regarding various classes of transformation, forming one or more shapes for the curve(s). The comparing operation involves forming one or more geometric proximity measures, and determining for every shape the values of those measures between the shape and correspondingly determined shapes for the template symbols. Applying a decision rule involves selecting one or more template symbols in consideration of the values.

Method and system for detecting unusual events and application thereof in computer intrusion detection

An automated decision engine is utilized to screen incoming alarms using a knowledge-base of decision rules. The decision rules are updated with the assistance of a data mining engine that analyzes historical data. “Normal” alarm events, sequences, or patterns generated by sensors under conditions not associated with unusual occurrences (such as intrusion attacks) are characterized and these characterizations are used to contrast normal conditions from abnormal conditions. By identifying frequent occurrences and characterizing them as “normal” it is possible to easily identify anomalies which would indicate a probable improper occurrence. This provides very accurate screening capability based on actual event data.

Hybrid soft and hard decision feedback equalizer

An equalizer for use in a communication receiver includes an infinite impulse response (IIR) feedback filter operated in acquisition and tracking feedback modes on a sample by sample basis to form a hybrid Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) architecture. In acquisition mode, soft decision samples from the filtered received signal are input to the IIR filter. In the tracking mode, hard decision samples from a slicer are input to the IIR filter. Acquisition and tracking operating modes are selected in accordance with a set of decision rules on a sample by sample basis based on the quality of the current hard decision. If the current hard decision is low quality, then the soft decision sample (acquisition mode) is used. If the current hard decision is high quality, then the hard decision sample (tracking mode) is used. In such manner, the DFE is operated in a hybrid mode, i.e., using both soft and hard decisions on a sample by sample basis. Furthermore, the decision rules that are responsive to signal reliability to select acquisition and tracking modes are adaptive.
