ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 15 -- United States Patent no. 12,737,692, issued on Sept. 15, was assigned to DiffLogic Inc. (Dover, Del.).

"Heterogeneous relaxations in differentiable logic gate networks" was invented by Felix Petersen (Santa Clara, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for training and implementing logic gate networks for inference tasks. An untrained node network includes a first set of nodes parameterized by differentiable parameters, each associated with a predefined set of potential logic gate operators, and a second set of nodes corresponding to predefined logic gate operators. During training, node outputs of the fir...
