Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes executing server operations for processing a data item, wherein the server operations are based on feature values associated with the data item, executing a heuristic to determine a heuristic result value based on the feature values, determining a prediction result by a machine-learning model based on the feature values and the heuristic result value, wherein the prediction result is associated with an assessment score indicating an effectiveness of the machine-learning model, invoking a feedback function configured to update the machine-learning model based on the prediction result and the assessment score, and updating the machine-learning model when resources on the server are available.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request to determine whether to perform an action, wherein the action is based on one or more feature values, generating a prediction of whether to perform the action, wherein the prediction is generated using a machine-learning model that is trained based on the feature values, a heuristic value based on the feature values, and one or more feedback scores based on corresponding past predictions generated by the machine-learning model, where the heuristic value indicates whether to perform the action based on one or more predetermined conditions that are based on the feature values, performing the action when the prediction indicates that the action is to be performed, receiving a feedback score that indicates a level of effectiveness of the prediction, and updating the machine-learning model based on the feedback score, the feature values, and the heuristic value.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a universal format driven data transformation. In conventional ETL operations, the transform process that transforms data from the source format to the destination format is based on a transformation program. Conventionally, transform logic is developed around the chosen transform program. In accordance with an embodiment, a universal, format-driven data transform can be achieved through the use of a data transformation format. In accordance with an embodiment, a method for providing a universal format driven data transformation can include providing a transformation format in a file, wherein the transformation format is in a human-readable form; and providing, in the transformation format, keywords defining a target table type, a dataset list, and dataset operations to be performed on a dataset from the dataset list.

Abstract: A method includes receiving location reports indicating locations of mobile devices associated with users of an internet platform, registering a count for each location report, determining, for each location report received from a mobile device, a recent location report received from the mobile device indicating a previous location and registering a transition for each of a paired location report and recent location report, corresponding to a pair of locations. The method includes counting a number of transitions corresponding to a particular pair of locations and determining common transitions by comparing the number of transitions to a threshold value.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can acquire a request for a map of a particular region. A first set of one or more map portions for representing a first portion of the particular region can be identified based on the particular region. The first set can be associated with a first map data source. A second set of one or more map portions for representing a second portion of the particular region can be identified based on the particular region. The second set can be associated with a second map data source. The map of the particular region can be generated based on a combination of the first set and the second set.

Abstract: There are significant advantages to employing a diverse workforce within an enterprise. Techniques for identifying gaps in diversity hiring, promotion, and termination within an enterprise are provided herein. The techniques described herein may be used to analyze any large data set for comparison of aggregated data. Employment data may be collected and aggregated based on classifications such as ethnicity, gender, veteran status, disability status, and so forth, and within each classification the data can be aggregated for hiring, termination, promotion, and so forth. Two aggregates can be identified for comparison, and statistical scores may be generated for the first aggregate as compared to the second aggregate. Each of the statistical scores may be weighted and the scores may be combined to generate a single impact score. The impact score can be used to identify gaps in diversity employment practices within the enterprise.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer readable storage media for establishing access with a content object stored in a content management data source from an on-demand database service. A request can be received from a user of the on-demand database service to access data regarding a content object stored in an external content management data source. The content management data source can be identified based on the request, and the request can be provided to a repository-specific connector communicatively coupled to the external content management data source. Access can be established with the content object to retrieve the requested data, and a virtual object associated with the on-demand database service can be created to instantiate connection between the content object and the on-demand database service. The requested data can be provided to a display device in a user interface for the on-demand database service.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer readable storage media for providing access in an on-demand database service to a content object stored in an external content management data source. Information data identifying a content object stored in an external content management data source can be received and communicated through one or more middleware components. The one or more middleware components can serve as a content hub to establish access with the content object and retrieve data regarding the content object. The data regarding the content object can be stored in a persistent object, which can represent the content object in a social layer of the on-demand database service.
