Abstract: A matching machine accordingly accesses a query fingerprint that includes query sub-fingerprints that have been generated from query segments of a portion of query audio. After selecting reference sub-fingerprints for comparison to the query sub-fingerprints, the matching machine identifies a best-matching subset of the reference sub-fingerprints by evaluating total matches between the query sub-fingerprints and different subsets of the reference sub-fingerprints. The match machine then generates a count vector that stores the total counts mapped to respective offsets from a reference point in the reference sub-fingerprints. The matching machine determines a maximum count among the total counts and classifies the reference sub-fingerprints as a match with the query sub-fingerprints based on the maximum count.

Abstract: A technique for managing storage of directories in a file system performs a testing operation on a file-system block of a directory file. The testing operation determines whether the file-system block contains any directory element that identifies a currently-present content object in the directory. In response to the testing operation determining that the file-system block contains no directory element that identifies any currently-present content object, the file system performs a hole-punching operation on the file-system block, removing the block from the directory file and freeing the block for other use.

Abstract: A content item generation system which implements techniques for selecting and identifying content items to return in response to a request is described.

The first set of requirements may be used to identify which content items or content item campaigns may be suitable to respond to the request. The second set of requirements may be used to determine whether items associated with the selected content items or content item campaigns correspond to technical requirements specified in the request.

Abstract: A content management system provides a mechanism for representing a particular piece of metadata in multiple languages. The multilingual metadata system provides a user with an ability to visualize a single translation in a language of the user's preference or based on the user's locale. The system receives an indication that at least one metadata field associated with a managed object contains multilingual metadata. A locale metadata table and a new metadata table for the managed object are created using information from an original metadata table for the managed object. Two or more metadata field values representing at least two languages are received by the system. The metadata fields are tagged with locale information and stored in the locale metadata table in association with the at least one metadata field in the new metadata table.

In one aspect, a method includes providing, by a user device to a contextual information server, a query-independent request for contextual information relevant to an active resource displayed in an application environment on the user device, wherein the request specifies content of the active resource and further specifies that the active resource displayed on the user device includes an image, but does not include the image in the request, receiving a request for the image from the contextual information server, providing the image to the contextual information server, receiving a user interface element that includes contextual information regarding the image, and displaying the user interface element on the user device with the active resource.

Abstract: A system and method that distinguishes between logos and other categories of images, such as natural images, cartoon images, and computer-processed or generated images (“concept images”). The system receives a query image, which may, for example, be intended to be evaluated by an image search and comparison engine to identify matches to a catalog of images. The system evaluates characteristics of the query image, such as the gray-levels in the image, the edge crossings in the image, and the gradient magnitudes in the image, to identify whether the image is a logo. Based on identifying the image is a logo, the logo query image may be excluded from being evaluated by the image search and comparison engine.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed toward systems, methods, and computer storage media for using a neural network language model to identify semantic relationships between file storage specifications for replication requests. By treating file storage specifications (or at least a portion thereof) as “words” in the language model, replication vectors can be determined based on the file storage specifications. Instead of determining the relationship of the file storage specifications based on ordering within a document, the relationship can be based on proximity of the replication requests in a replication session. When a replication request is received from a user, the replication vectors can be used to determine a semantic similarity between the received replication request and one or more additional replication requests.
