How long has Nvidia used RAPIDS cuML without using a license from Health Discovery Corporation? Isn't this cUML technology considered open source for everyone to use?


According to a patent infringement lawsuit filed on December 31, 2025, Health Discovery Corporation (HDC) alleges that NVIDIA has been infringing upon their patent (U.S. Patent No. 10,402,685) regarding Support Vector Machine-Recursive Feature Elimination (SVM-RFE) technology in the RAPIDS cuML software platform.

Key Aspects of the Dispute:
Duration of Alleged Infringement: The lawsuit was filed at the end of 2025, with allegations targeting the GPU-accelerated machine learning stack, which was first introduced in 2019.

The Patent in Question: The lawsuit involves HDC’s U.S. Patent No. 10,402,685, which relates to a recursive feature elimination method used in machine learning, which HDC claims is implemented in cuML.
Patent Status: The lawsuit notes the patent expired in June 2025, but HDC is seeking damages for the period of infringement prior to expiration, accusing NVIDIA of "willful" infringement.

Is cuML Open Source?
Yes, NVIDIA's RAPIDS cuML is generally considered an open-source library designed to accelerate machine learning workflows on GPUs.


The Nuance: Even open-source software can be subject to patent infringement claims if the software's algorithms or methods are covered by existing patents held by another entity.
Open Source != Patent Free: Open-source licenses (like Apache 2.0, often used by NVIDIA for RAPIDS) frequently include patent licenses from contributors, but they do not protect a user or developer from third-party patent claims.

The lawsuit, Health Discovery Corporation v. Nvidia Corporation, is a case of alleged intellectual property violation that exists independent of the open-source nature of the code itself.
