  • Patent number: 11809966
    Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for training a computer implemented model. The mechanisms perform multiple instances of training of the computer implemented model, where each instance of training of the computer implemented model comprises training the computer implemented model using a different training data set to generate a different instance of a trained computer implemented model. The mechanisms generate computer implemented model results after each instance of training by executing the corresponding instance of the trained computer implemented model. The mechanisms record differences in the instances of training of the computer implemented model in association with corresponding identifiers of the instances of trained computer implemented model and corresponding computer implemented model results.

  • Patent number: 11809372
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to a method for searching a database. The application receives an input identifying one or more users. The application matches the input to one or more user accounts, each user account corresponding to a user that was identified. The application presents to a requestor public accounts of each identified user account. The application receives a keyword input that filters one or more files in the public accounts. The application receives an input that saves a search comprising the user accounts and the keyword input. The application queries the database using the search. The application presents to the requestor a list of all files found using the search.

  • Patent number: 11775519
    Abstract: A system executes a set of database operations and determines counts of instances that each key is specified for a corresponding column by any database operations on a database table. The system identifies each key which is associated with any determined count that satisfies a threshold as a corresponding frequently accessed key. The system creates an optimized index for each column which stores any frequently accessed key. The system inserts each frequently accessed key into a corresponding optimized index. The system receives a database operation that specifies a specific key for a specific column in the database table. If any optimized index matches the specific column and stores any frequently accessed key that matches the specific key, then the system references a matching frequently accessed key in a matching optimized index to access a record, which is associated with the specific column and the specific key, via the database table.

  • Patent number: 11775518
    Abstract: Technologies described reduce the amount of time between requesting content and receiving the requested content. In some embodiments, a client provides a search query. A search result page is generated and, prior to returning the search result page to the client, some or all of the search results are asynchronously pre-fetched and cached. The search query can include custom parameters that are also included in the pre-fetch requests. Web addresses in the search results page can be modified to indicate whether a prefetch operation was initiated. Once a user activates one of the search results, the responding web server uses the cached data while generating a response.

  • Patent number: 11768816
    Abstract: Venn diagrams are computed for a given plurality of input sets. The process of computing the Venn diagrams is executed on columnar database systems for efficient execution. The computation of various subsets of the Venn diagrams is performed by determining subsets of various combinations of the input sets and computing set differences of the intersection sets. The process orders the execution of various steps of computing the subsets for the Venn diagram in an order that reduces the number of times an input set is loaded. Information describing various subsets of a Venn diagram is used to render the Venn diagram for display, for example, on a client device.

  • Patent number: 11763176
    Abstract: Techniques for improved searching and querying in computer-based reasoning systems are discussed and include receiving multiple new multidimensional data element to store in a computer-based reasoning data model; determining a feature bucket for each feature of each data element and storing a reference identifier in the feature bucket(s). A query on the computer-based reasoning system includes input data element (e.g., an actual data element, or a set of restrictions on features). For each feature in the input data element, feature buckets are determined, candidate results are determined based on whether cases have related feature buckets, and the results are determined based at least in part on the candidate results. In some embodiments, control of controllable systems may be caused based on the results.

  • Patent number: 11687491
    Abstract: Data-deduplicating includes comparing a first record of a data-store with a second record of the data-store but instead of using a static weight for a field, the present data-deduplicating dynamically assigns a first weight for the first score to generate a first weighted score, wherein the first weight is based on one or both of the first value or the second value; and assigns a second weight for the second score to generate a second weighted score. A composite score is calculated based on the first weighted score and the second weighted score; and it is determined whether or not the first record and the second record are duplicate records, based on the composite score.
