  • Patent number: 11847563
    Abstract: An auto-rotation module having a single-layer neural network on a user device can convert a document image to a monochrome image having black and white pixels and segment the monochrome image into bounding boxes, each bounding box defining a connected segment of black pixels in the monochrome image. The auto-rotation module can determine textual snippets from the bounding boxes and prepare them into input images for the single-layer neural network. The single-layer neural network is trained to process each input image, recognize a correct orientation, and output a set of results for each input image. Each result indicates a probability associated with a particular orientation. The auto-rotation module can examine the results, determine what degree of rotation is needed to achieve a correct orientation of the document image, and automatically rotate the document image by the degree of rotation needed to achieve the correct orientation of the document image.

  • Patent number: 11836372
    Abstract: Content is captured and archived at an archive center (AC) and, depending upon records management (RM) policy, is managed by the AC or under RM control by a content server (CS). Both the AC and CS may be part of an enterprise content management system. The AC provides a user-friendly interface through which retention zones may be defined, and functionality for applying RM policy. The functionality can be triggered via a specific content property or through a retention zone under RM control. The RM control can be turned on or off from within the AC using the user-friendly interface. Archived content is not moved or duplicated. Rather, metadata and a link to the storage location are sent to the CS which, in turn, creates a content server document that is linked to the archived content. Only a portion of archived content is exposed to the CS through the AC.

  • Patent number: 11829583
    Abstract: Responsive to a request to share managed content with a user of an external system, a content server in an enterprise computing environment makes a copy of the managed content, sends the copy with information identifying the user of the external system to the external system, establishes a revocable link between the managed content in the repository and the copy in the external system, locks the managed content in the repository, and indicates to the requesting user that the managed content is locked from editing. Responsive to a request to stop sharing, the content server revokes the link and notifies the external system that sharing has been revoked. If the copy has been modified, the content server retrieves a modified version of the copy from the external system and saves the modified version as a new version of the managed content in the repository.

  • Patent number: 11803600
    Abstract: A source content processor receives content from a crawler and calls a text mining engine. The text mining engine mines the content and provides metadata about the content. The source content processor applies a source content filtering rule to the content utilizing the metadata from the text mining engine. The source content filtering rule is previously built based on at least one of a named entity, a category, or a sentiment. The source content processor determines whether to persist the content according to a result from applying the source content filtering rule to the content and either stores the content in a data store or deletes the contents from the data ingestion pipeline such that the content is not persisted anywhere. Embodiments disclosed herein can significantly reduce the amount of irrelevant content through the data ingestion pipeline, prior to data persistence.

  • Patent number: 11775436
    Abstract: One embodiment of a cache invalidation method includes storing an invalidation status usable by a computing node to identify, from a broadcast cache invalidation queue, a last processed invalidation that was processed with respect to an object cache used by the node. The method further comprises the node determining a set of unprocessed invalidations from the broadcast cache invalidation queue that are subsequent to the last processed invalidation determined from the invalidation status. The node processes the set of unprocessed invalidations to clear cached objects from the object cache. Based on processing the set of unprocessed invalidations to clear cached objects from the object cache, the invalidation status is updated with an identifier corresponding to a last invalidation from the set of previously unprocessed invalidations.

  • Patent number: 11776244
    Abstract: Disclosed is a new document processing solution that combines the powers of machine learning and deep learning and leverages the knowledge of a knowledge base. Textual information in an input image of a document can be converted to semantic information utilizing the knowledge base. A semantic image can then be generated utilizing the semantic information and geometries of the textual information. The semantic information can be coded by semantic type determined utilizing the knowledge base and positioned in the semantic image utilizing the geometries of the textual information. A region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN) can be trained to extract regions from the semantic image utilizing the coded semantic information and the geometries. The regions can be mapped to the textual information for classification/data extraction. With semantic images, the number of samples and time needed to train the R-CNN for document processing can be significantly reduced.

  • Patent number: 11748323
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for searching objects, metadata associated with the objects, and attributes assigned to or associated with the metadata. Referring to herein as metadata for the metadata, these attributes may be associated with one or more metadata field values of a metadata field name which, in turn, may be associated with an object being or already indexed in a search index of a search system. Each attribute may be optional, dynamically created, indexed, and searchable via the search index. There can be multiple attributes associated with the same metadata field value, each being represented as a key-value pair. This metadata for the metadata approach can be highly efficient. For example, the ability to search multiple attributes associated with the same metadata field can eliminate the potential need to create multiple metadata fields for the same value in different languages, countries, etc.
