Patent number: 11494421Abstract: This disclosure relates to personalized and dynamic server-side searching techniques for encrypted data. Current so-called ‘zero-knowledge’ privacy systems (i.e., systems where the server has ‘zero-knowledge’ about the client data that it is storing) utilize servers that hold encrypted data without the decryption keys necessary to decrypt, index, and/or re-encrypt the data. As such, the servers are not able to perform any kind of meaningful server-side search process, as it would require access to the underlying decrypted data. Therefore, such prior art ‘zero-knowledge’ privacy systems provide a limited ability for a user to search through a large dataset of encrypted documents to find critical information.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2022Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Entefy Inc.Inventors: Alston Ghafourifar, Philip Nathan Greenberg, Mehdi Ghafourifar

Patent number: 11461287Abstract: A technique manages file data of a file system. The technique involves provisioning a first LUN with slice locations from a heterogeneous storage pool created from a solid state device (SSD) storage tier formed from SSD memory and a hard disk drive (HDD) storage tier formed from HDD memory. The technique further involves provisioning a second LUN with slice locations from the heterogeneous storage pool. The technique further involves, while different LUN level policies are applied to the first LUN and the second LUN, moving file data of a file system from the slice locations of the first LUN to the slice locations of the second LUN. Such a technique enables effective auto-tiering at the file level where active file data moves to a higher performance storage tier and inactive file data moves to a cost effective lower performance storage tier thus optimizing operation.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2017Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventor: Nickolay Alexandrovich Dalmatov

The modification performs image analysis on an image result in a result set of a query including at least some of the input features. In a next iteration of NL interactions, at least some of the result set is provided. An NL response in the iteration is added to a cumulative NL basis, and a revised result set is provided, which includes a new image result corresponding to a new response feature extracted from the cumulative NL basis.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Hui Wu, Rogerio S.

Patent number: 11455301Abstract: Some embodiments provide a program that identifies an entity having an entity attribute. The program receives, from each method of several methods, a set of candidate identity attributes that are each for identifying a particular entity having the entity attribute specified in the document. Each method of the several methods generates the corresponding set of candidate identity attributes based on the entity attribute specified in a document. The program calculates a score for each candidate identity attribute in the sets of candidate identity attributes. The program identifies, based on the sets of scores, an identity attribute from the sets of candidate identity attributes that identifies the entity having the entity attribute specified in the document.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2020Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: Aurea Software, Inc.Inventors: David Cooke, Martin Betz, Ashutosh Joshi, Binay Mohanty

Patent number: 11436529Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for implementing an actor-critic model for processing a large document. The document is processed in smaller portions, and the information is accumulated or aggregated in a vector representation of the document. The vector representation may be reconfigured with each time step so that the vector representation includes an estimate of the most relevant information from the document processed thus far. The vector representation may be used to classify the document, such as by determining a primary and/or secondary diagnosis in a medical record. Feedback from the critic is provided in the form of a reward signal to the actor, which fine tunes its parameters and processes the different portions of the document. The actor-critic model may be trained with training data including documents and their known associated classifications.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2019Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: CHANGE HEALTHCARE HOLDINGS, LLCInventor: Alex Londeree
