Abstract

Deploying neural networks that use unique data sources generated by enterprises as training or input data has significant potential to unlock novel insights and domain-specific Al capabilities. However, data owners are often hesitant to share their proprietary and valuable datasets with third parties for training neural networks, even though doing so could provide significant benefits. Similarly, neural network owners are reluctant to expose their confidential weights and biases, which represent critical intellectual property. The proposed solution is based on both data and neural network parameters being transformed into a secure mathematical space, enabling collaborative training and deployment of neural networks without exposing sensitive information. The solution proposed here resolves data and neural network model privacy issues by allowing data owners and neural network owners to work together securely, ensuring that neither party's assets are compromised, while still enabling effective collaboration.

Abstract

Methods and systems for generating digital threads that connect models and software tools for an interconnected digital engineering and certification ecosystem are provided. In one embodiment, a process for generating a software-code-defined digital thread includes receiving a first model representation of a first engineering model, a second model representation of a second engineering model, and an intent input. Determining, using a machine learning (ML) model, one or more model endpoints in the first and the second model representations. Generating, using a script-generating ML model, a platform orchestration script that accomplishes the intent input by connecting the first model representation and the second model representation, using the one or more model endpoints. Finally, storing the platform orchestration script as the software-code-defined digital thread. The digital threading of digital engineering models, with and without AI assistance, leads to exponential increases in efficiency of designing, testing, certifying, manufacturing, and operating physical products, allowing physical products to be made at digital speeds.

Abstract

Methods and systems for generating a sharable model splice of a digital engineering (DE) model are provided. The method comprises receiving a DE model file in a native file fomat; extracting model data; storing the model data in a storage area; generating external, commonly-accessible splice functions that enable external access to digital artifacts derived from the model data; and generating the sharable model splice, which comprises access to a selective portion of the digital artifacts, and access to at least one of the splice functions. The splice functions provide addressable API or SDK endpoints that enable access by third-party applications and users to the digital artifacts without access to an entirety of the DE model file and without requiring direct engagement with a DE tool associated with the DE model type. These endpoints also provide a unified programming interface to sharable model splices generated from DE models having the same DE model type.
