Title: Natural language processing utilizing logical tree structures and propagation of knowledge through logical parse tree structures
Inventor: Jared Michael Dean Smythe
IPC: G06F17/27
Filed: 2015-09-25
Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for processing logical relationships in natural language content. Natural language content is received,upon which a reasoning operation is to be performed. A first parse representation of the natural language content is generated, by a parser, by performing natural language processing on the natural language content. A logical parse of the first parse is generated by identifying latent logical operators within the first parse indicative of logical relationships between elements of the natural language content. A reasoning operation on the logical parse is executed to generate a knowledge output indicative of knowledge associated with one or more of the logical relationships between elements of the natural language content. The logical parse comprises nodes and edges linking nodes. At least one knowledge value is associated with each node in the logical parse. The at least one knowledge value of at least a subset of the nodes in the logical parse is propagated to one or more other nodes in the logical parse based on propagation rules.

Title: Process device condition and performance monitoring
Inventor: Mark John Nixon
IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 2017-10-23
Abstract: One or more computing devices receive, via a data diode, data 408 generated by one or more devices corresponding to a process plant entity while a process plant is online. The data diode is configured to prevent two-way communication between a network of the process plant and the computing devices. The computing devices analyse the data to detect a condition of the process plant entity. An indication of the condition for the process plant entity is transmitted 416 to a user interface to alert an operator to the condition. One or more process parameter metrics 410 may be generated using a moving or decaying time average of one or more process parameters of the process plant entity. The condition of the process plant entity may be identified by applying the process parameter metrics to a statistical model 414 generated based on historical values of the process parameters. The statistical model may be generated using machine learning techniques including: linear regression, polynomial regression, logistic regression, naïve Bayes, decision trees, random forests, boosting, nearest neighbours, or neural networks.

Title: Graphics processing using directional representations of lighting at probe positions within a scene
Inventor: LUKE PETERSON
IPC: G06T15/50
Filed: 2016-03-03
Abstract: Graphics rendering comprising: determining visible 3D scene surfaces at each pixel in each frame of a sequence; maintaining directional lighting representations at first probe positions within the scene; determining low-level probe positions within the scene based on visible surfaces; determining directional lighting representations for each low-level sampling point by incorporating data from first probe position lighting representations; using the low-level probe position lighting representations to determine lighting indications for the visible surfaces; shading pixels in the frame based on the lighting indications. Density of low level, local light probes may be greater than of first, high level, global probes. Lighting indications may be determined using weighted 2D interpolation between lighting representations at local probe positions selected based on similarity to visible surfaces of their world space location or depth from a viewpoint. Rays may be traced from global probe positions to determine lighting contributions, from the direction of each ray, which may be used to update the lighting representation at the high-level probe position. Lighting contributions may be transformed into lighting representation component values (eg. spherical harmonic components) and combined with existing component values by maintaining running averages over the frame sequence.
