  • Publication number: 20230114836
    Abstract: A parser is deployed early in a machine learning pipeline to read raw data and collect useful statistics about the raw data's content to determine which items of raw data exhibit a proxy for feature importance for the machine learning model. The parser operates at high speeds that approach the disk's absolute throughput while utilizing a small memory footprint. Utilization of the parser enables the machine learning pipeline to receive a fraction of the total raw data that would otherwise be available. Several scans through the data are performed, by which proxies for feature importance are indicated and irrelevant features may be discarded and thereby not forwarded to the machine learning pipeline. This reduces the amount of memory and other hardware resources used at the server and also expedites the machine learning process.

  • Patent number: 10846616
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes a computing system having a database that stores multiple datasets and that accesses the database to perform operations on a first dataset to produce multiple second datasets. The system determines a relationship between the first dataset and each second dataset of the multiple second datasets. The system also determines a relationship between respective groups of the first dataset and determines a relationship between respective groups of each second dataset. The system generates summary objects based, in part, on the determined relationships between respective groups of the first and second datasets. The system includes a machine learning system that uses the respective summary objects to analyze the performed operations that produced the multiple second datasets. Based on the analyzed performed operations, the machine learning system generates a data analysis model that indicates sequences of operations for achieving particular desired data analysis outcomes.
