Abstract

Methods and systems for training machine learning models using contrastive loss are disclosed. The use of these novel contrastive loss methods can improve the accuracy of prediction models trained using such methods. During training, training data elements can be grouped into pairs of training data elements, and a computer system can determine whether such pairs comprise "positive" pairs of training data elements or "negative" pairs of training data elements. Embeddings can be generated for each pair of training data elements using an encoder, and a contrastive loss can be calculated between each pair of embeddings, such that the encoder is rewarded for generating similar embeddings for positive pairs of training data elements and penalized for generating similar embeddings for negative pairs of training data elements. Using contrastive loss, the machine learning model can be trained to develop a more holistic understanding of the training dataset, thereby improving accuracy.

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods and systems for biometric authentication using superimposed biometric data. Using such methods and systems, a user can be authenticated for some purpose (e.g., gaining access to a secure facility, accessing a user account, etc.). Superimposed biometric data, unlike conventional biometric data, can comprise a combination of user biometric data and artificial biometric data. This combination can protect the user biometric data. For example, if an identity thief manages to acquire the superimposed biometric data, it may be difficult or impossible for the identity thief to acquire the user biometric data, thereby protecting the user's data privacy. The user can use a user device to capture and combine the user's biometric data with artificial biometric data stored on the user device, thereby determining superimposed biometric data, which can be sent to a biometric authentication server in order to authenticate the user.

Abstract

Methods and systems for performing efficient privacy-preserving machine learning (or other computationally intensive private computing operations) based on homomorphic encryption are disclosed. Two computer systems can collectively perform these methods on behalf of a client computer using threshold leveled homomorphic encryption (LHE) or fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), e.g., using the Cheon-Kim-Kim-Song cryptosystem. For example, two computer systems could privately evaluate a client's encrypted inputs using a machine learning model and return an encrypted output to the client, preserving the privacy of the client's data. Methods according to embodiments include efficient bootstrapping methods, ciphertext packing methods, encryption parameter optimization methods, and methods for privately fine-tuning machine learning models using low rank adaptation (LoRA). Embodiments improve the speed and efficiency of private HE-based computation, which are often several orders of magnitude slower than non-private computation.

Abstract

A computer-implemented method processes transaction data using probabilistic structures. The method involves generating a probabilistic bitmap from transaction attributes, which are then organized in a specific order. This bitmap is used to perform transaction data checks by comparing it with other probabilistic bitmaps from different systems. The process includes hashing attribute values, applying a Mod function, and organizing bits to represent these values. The method allows for detecting mismatches or inconsistencies without directly comparing transaction data, thus identifying issues like missing or corrupted data. Additionally, the method supports updating bitmaps with new data and generating reports based on these checks.

Abstract

Methods and systems for explaining the output of machine learning models using contribution values are described. In many applications, a complex machine learning model may be used to produce an output (e.g., a classification) or otherwise perform some analysis. However, due to its complexity, it may be difficult to generate explanations (e.g., relating the outputs of that machine learning model to its inputs) in a timely manner. In embodiments of the present disclosure, a lightweight surrogate model can be trained to generally copy the performance of a primary machine learning model. Explanations can be generated based on the outputs of the surrogate model, which can be used as surrogate explanations for the primary machine learning model. Such surrogate explanations can be generated more quickly due to the lesser complexity of the surrogate model, enabling such explanations to be used in real-time production environments.

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure enable users to efficiently verify digital data produced by queried databases, even when that data is differentially-private (e.g., satisfying the conditions of differential privacy in order to protect sensitive or private data). In addition to the query result, a database computer can provide the client with a non-interactive zero-knowledge proof (NIZK), data that the client can use to verify the digital data contained in the query result, without revealing any private data to the client. Various innovations, including vectorized proofs, enable the database computer to generate proofs that require less data (e.g., when measured in bytes) than most NIZK proof systems. Consequently, these proofs can be transmitted and verified more quickly and efficiently. Embodiments of the present disclosure can make use of partially or homomorphic commitments and efficient vector proof techniques to achieve these performance improvements.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to the methods and systems for generating artificial data records from (potentially private or sensitive) data records in a privacy-preserving manner, particularly using machine learning models such as generative adversarial networks (GANs). Such artificial data records can be used in place of the real data in data analysis applications, such as training machine learning models. These artificial data records can be generated such that they do not (or have a low or negligible probability of) leaking information from the data records used to generate the artificial data records. As a result, artificial data records (or any machine learning models trained to generate such artificial data records) can potentially be published or distributed without violating rules, regulations, or laws restricting the transmission of sensitive data.

Abstract

A computer system automates and balance loads balancing a Highly Available Server (HA server), a plurality of nodes, a final delivery server, a failover mechanism within the HA server, and a methodology for a reinforcement learning model. The HA server maintains a dynamic list of reports, assigns tasks to the nodes based on their availability status, and employs a reinforcement learning-based model to optimize task assignment. The nodes receive and complete assigned tasks from the HA server and sends task outputs back to the HA server. The final delivery server receives processed reports from the HA server. The failover mechanism detects node failures and reassigns tasks among remaining operational nodes. The reinforcement learning model updates its task allocation policy based on the success or failure of completed tasks, maximizes system efficiency, and adjusts the policy to mitigate the impact of system failures.

Abstract

Methods, systems, and machine learning models for efficiently performing time series forecasting for multivariate time series datasets are disclosed, particularly multivariate time series datasets that comprise a large number of variates (or "time series signals") and for which time series signals may emerge and disappear over the sampling time period. A computer system according to embodiments can generate signal embeddings corresponding to time series signals in a multivariate time series dataset and use an efficient (e.g., linear) latent attention module to generate an attention matrix. The computer system can then generate a time series forecast using the attention matrix and a forecasting model. Methods according to embodiments can also involve the use of random projection, reducing the risk of overfitting and improving accuracy for large and complex spatial-temporal datasets.
