The trained machine learning model may identify vocal attributes within the target call and use the identified attributes, and the training, determine whether the target call is genuine or not genuine. An applied trained machine learning model may include multiple different types of trained machine learning models, where each of different types of machine learning models is trained and/or configured for a different function within the analysis.

Abstract: The present embodiments relate to implementing change data on no-master NoSQL data stores. An optimized node can be identified from a plurality of NoSQL data storage nodes and a specialized node can be connected (e.g., collocated) to the optimized node. The specialized node can maintain change data capture (CDC) data provided by client nodes in a hash map that can be used as a point of truth for coordinating CDC data across the plurality of NoSQL data storage nodes. The plurality of NoSQL data storage nodes can identify and coordinate all read/write data obtained from multiple client devices in a geographically separated large-scale (e.g., planet scale) system to identify change data in a distributed data store. The specialized data can provide read data to devices in the large-scale system to reconcile inconsistencies in change data across nodes in the large-scale system.

Abstract: A data catalog system is disclosed that provides capabilities for uniquely identifying and retrieving data entities stored in diverse data sources managed by an organization. The data catalog system includes capabilities for generating a unique external identifier for a data entity (e.g., a data asset or a data object) by identifying a set of immutable configuration parameters associated with the data asset and identifying a set of data object attributes that uniquely identify data objects within the data asset. The generated unique external identifiers are stored as part of the metadata harvested by the data catalog system. The external identifiers are used to enforce a single representation of the data assets and the data objects in the data catalog system. The external object identifiers are used to perform data lookups and reconcile states of data entities during the metadata harvesting process.

Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing latency of probing operations of remotely located linear hash tables are described herein. In an embodiment, a system receives a request to perform a probing operation on a remotely located linear hash table based on a key value. Prior to performing the probing operation, the system dynamically predicts a number of slots for a single read of the linear hash table to minimize total cost for an average probing operation. The system determines a hash value based on the key value and determines a slot of the linear hash table to which the hash value corresponds. After predicting the number of slots, the system issues an RDMA request to perform a read of the predicted number of slots from the linear hash table starting at the slot to which the hash value corresponds.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for loading and transforming data to a cloud database, using a hybrid set-based extract, load, transform approach. During the loading and transforming of large amounts of data, from one or more data sources, a data synchronization application sends small batches of data, in parallel streams, to the database, which operates as a transformation engine to load the data. Each stream can be associated with a separate staging table in the database. For each staging table, the subset of data therein is transformed and loaded, before the next subset is processed. A transform and merge process operating at the database can then be used to transform and merge the data, from each of the staging tables, to the target table.

Abstract: The present invention relates to machine learning (ML) explainability (MLX). Herein are local explanation techniques for black box ML models based on coalitions of features in a dataset. In an embodiment, a computer receives a request to generate a local explanation of which coalitions of features caused an anomaly detector to detect an anomaly. During unsupervised generation of a new coalition, a first feature is randomly selected from features in a dataset. Which additional features in the dataset can join the coalition, because they have mutual information with the first feature that exceeds a threshold, is detected. For each feature that is not in the coalition, values of the feature are permuted in imperfect copies of original tuples in the dataset. An average anomaly score of the imperfect copies is measured. Based on the average anomaly score of the imperfect copies, a local explanation is generated that references (e.g. defines) the coalition.

Abstract: A distributed computing system is described that leverages a nearline storage layer to minimize the downtime required for bootstrapping a new computing cluster in the distributed computing system. The system executes a computing cluster comprising a set of computing nodes and determines a set of one or more data segments to be written to a nearline storage system. The system writes the data segments to the nearline storage system. In certain examples, the system receives a request to create a second computing cluster and responsive to the request, bootstraps the second computing cluster using the set of data segments stored on the nearline storage system. The system additionally leverages the nearline storage layer to accelerate query processing by the computing nodes of a computing cluster.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing extensible attributes in ETL are disclosed. In some examples, attributes configured at a source file may be extracted from the source file.

The dynamic script may be executed to move data associated with the attributes to an appropriate new column of the data warehouse.

Abstract: A type restriction contextually modifies an existing type descriptor. The type restriction is imposed on a data structure to restrict the values that are assumable by the data structure. The type restriction does not cancel or otherwise override the effect of the existing type descriptor on the data structure. Rather the type restriction may declare that a value of the data structure's type is forbidden for the data structure. Additionally or alternatively, the type restriction may declare that an element count allowable for a data structure's type is forbidden for the data structure. Type restriction allows optionality (where only a singleton value for a data structure is allowed), empty sets (where no value for a data structure is allowed), and multiplicity (where only a limited element count for a data structure) to be injected into a code set independent of data type. Type restriction allows certain optimizations to be performed.

Abstract: Techniques for processing top-K queries are provided. In one technique, a database statement is received that requests top-K results related to a database object and that indicates two columns thereof: a first column by which to partition a result set and a second column by which to order the result set. A buffer is generated. For each of multiple rows in the database object: a first key value that associated with a first value in the first column of said each row is identified; a second key value that associated with a second value in the second column of said each entry is identified; a slot in the buffer is identified based on the first key value and the second key value; and the slot in the buffer may be updated based on the second key value. A response to the database statement is generated based on the buffer.

Abstract: Techniques are described for implementing a container environment where each pod within the container environment is provided with a unique IP address and a virtual communication device such as an IPvlan device. Communications from source pods are directly routed to destination pods within the container environment by one or more virtualized network interface cards (VNICs) utilizing the unique IP addresses of the destination pods, without the need for bridging and encapsulation. This reduces a size of data being transmitted and also eliminates a compute cost necessary to perform encapsulation of data during transmission.
