Patent number: 11714810Abstract: Techniques are described herein for subquery removal given two set operation-based subqueries in a query, where one subquery contains the result of the other. The described optimization technique of subquery removal is enabled by join and set operation-based containment of the set operation-based subqueries where semantic equivalence can be established for a given pair of set operation-based subqueries when some table(s)—with associated join condition(s), correlation condition(s), and/or filter predicate(s)—in one subquery are not considered. Subquery removal reduces multiple access to the same table and multiple evaluations of the same join conditions required to evaluate the query. When a subquery is removed from a disjunction, this may lead to other optimizations such as subquery unnesting, e.g., when the original query configuration would not permit query unnesting and the rewritten query (with one or more removed subqueries) permits unnesting.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2021Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Rafi Ahmed, Srikanth Bellamkonda

Patent number: 11449752Abstract: Methods for gradient accumulation with free momentum are performed by systems and devices during neural network model training. An accumulator that includes a processor circuit and a memory element generates free momentum between passes of a neural network model training process. The processor circuit receives a difference weight (gradient) and generates a first input by applying a weighting parameter thereto. The processor circuit obtains a prior weight from the memory element and generates a second input by applying another weighting parameter thereto. The processor circuit generates a filtered input with momentum by filtering the first and second input. The memory element generates a stored next pass weight by accumulating the filtered input with the prior weight. A computing resource then processes the next pass of the neural network model training using the stored next pass weight. The methods, systems, and devices are applicable to pipelined model parallelism training processes.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Andrew Wagner, Marc Tremblay, Saurabh M.

Patent number: 11429655Abstract: A method may include determining whether a first item description matches at least a second item description stored in a database. If the first item description matches the second item description, an ontology of the database may be updated by storing, in the database, the first item description including a first association between the first item description and a first headword associated with the second item description. Alternatively, if the first item description does not match any item descriptions in the database, a second headword for the first item description may be determined based on user inputs. Moreover, the ontology of the database may be updated by storing, in the database, the first item description including a second association between the first item description and the second headword. Related systems and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2019Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: SAP SEInventor: Stefan Dimov
