  • Patent number: 11789961
    Abstract: An event limited field picker for a search user interface is described. In one or more implementations, a service may operate to collect and store data as events each of which includes a portion of the data correlated with a point in time. Clients may use a search user interface perform searches by input of search criteria. Responsive to receiving search criteria, the service may operate to apply a late binding schema to extract events that match the search criteria and provide search results for display via the search user interface. The search user interface exposes an event limited field picker operable to make selections of fields with respect to individual events in a view of the search results.

    Abstract: A data management device is communicably connected to a first database and a second database in a different structure from the first database. The second database is converted to the structure of the first database, and is stored as a conversion table based on first data schema information defining the structure of the first database and second data schema information defining the structure of the second database. For which database a query that is received from the outside and described corresponding to the structure of the first database is a query is determined with reference to the conversion table. When the query is determined to be a query for the second database, the query is converted and is introduced into the second database, and a query result in response to the query is converted into a format corresponding to the structure of the first database and output.

  • Patent number: 11615441
    Abstract: A system that analyzes a user's communications to select a promotion that is presented to the user. The analysis may occur in two stages: a first stage analyzes a single communication from a user to determine whether the user is a potential target for a promotion; for potential targets, a second stage analyzes a history of communications from the user to generate a user profile. The system may then select a promotion based on the profile. The profile may include a set of profile tags that are considerably more detailed and granular than traditional demographic data; tags may for example indicate user affiliations with groups or ideas (such as religions or political parties), or user life cycle stages. Using these rich, detailed user profile tags, the system may achieve promotion response rates far above those from traditional advertising, which relies on cookies or simple demographic categories.

  • Patent number: 11531651
    Abstract: A dynamic schema service (DSS) stores and vends data schema for use by one or more client services. Each schema includes one or more data fields that describe related entities. The DSS also stores meta-schema, which defines limits for field definitions in the schema and other constraints. Using the DSS, a service owner defines fields and constraints unique to its business application and can revise those fields and constraints over time. When the client service requires a schema, the client service sends a request to the DSS, and the DSS responds with the current version of the schema for use by the client service. Service owners are able to edit their schemas in DSS, and the changes are immediately implemented in the corresponding services by virtue of the schema request to DSS. In some embodiments, the DSS employs a hierarchical graph structure to determine the requested schema.

The method includes producing a recommended alteration to the workflow structure including a percentage of the one or more tasks within the workflow to automate. The method includes extracting, from the workflow results, training data for training a machine learning model to automate one or more tasks within the workflow in accordance with the recommended alteration. The method includes causing a machine learning model to be trained to automate the one or more tasks within the workflow structure using the extracted training data. The method includes causing the machine learning model to perform the one or more tasks during a subsequent iteration of the workflow.

  • Patent number: 11301773
    Abstract: Techniques that facilitate time series analysis using machine learning are provided. In one example, a system includes a matrix generation component, a matrix factorization component and a machine learning component. The matrix generation component converts at least a first stream of time series data and a second stream of time series data (e.g., raw time series data) into a data matrix (e.g., a partially-observed similarity matrix) that comprises void data and numerical data associated with the first stream of time series data and the second stream of time series data. The matrix factorization component factorizes the data matrix into a first factorization data matrix and a second factorization data matrix. The machine learning component processes a machine learning model based on first matrix data associated with the first factorization data matrix and second matrix data associated with the second factorization data matrix.

  • Patent number: 11297495
    Abstract: A transfer module, such as a single board computer having wireless communication capabilities, may be attached to an image guided surgery (“IGS”) navigation system. Images, video, and data stored on the IGS navigation system may be moved to and stored on the transfer module in an encrypted format. The transfer module may connect to a secure network or other secure wireless communication and transfer encrypted IGS medical procedure data to a physician device, a hospital system device, or other device. After validation, the physician device or other device may decrypt and display the data. The transfer module may be useful for IGS navigation systems having no preexisting wireless capabilities; and for those having wireless capabilities that are less secure than those provided by the modified IGS navigation system. The transfer module may also wirelessly transmit IGS medical procedure data to a cloud storage system for subsequent access by end users.

  • Patent number: 11282137
    Abstract: A device has a secure element including a memory that stores at least one address, a set of rules, and a state of an asset. A processor is configured for receiving a request to change the state of the asset associated with the address, validating the request in the case where changing the state of the asset according to the request complies with the set of rules, and invalidating the request in the case where changing the state of the asset according to the request violates the set of rules. A communications module is coupled to the secure element for transmitting information responsive to the request to a distributed network of peer processors for recording a change in the state of the asset in a distributed electronic ledger in the case where the secure element validates the request.

  • Patent number: 11165634
    Abstract: Embodiments include a multi-tenant cloud system with a first data center and a second remote data center. The first data center authenticates a first client and stores resources that correspond to the first client, and is in communication with the second data center. The second data center authenticates the first client and replicates the resources. The first data center receives a write request for the first client, writes the write request and generates change event messages in a first order. The first data center pushes the change event messages to the second data center via REST API calls. In response to receiving the change event messages, the second data center is configured to write the change event messages in the first order to its local database.

  • Patent number: 11061605
    Abstract: Managing file transfers is provided. In response to receiving a request from a user of a first mainframe to transfer a data file to a second mainframe using a file transfer protocol, the request is intercepted to perform a comparison of the request with data maintained in a file transfer matrix of predetermined criteria that includes a set of policies. In response to determining that a match exists between the request and the data maintained in the file transfer matrix based on the comparison, the request is identified as eligible for an object storage file transfer protocol. An object storage file transfer is initiated by pausing processing of the file transfer protocol. Copy and dump of the data file on a cloud object-based storage system is executed using the object storage file transfer protocol. The request is replaced with a dummy request.
