Publication number: 20200394194Abstract: A method includes generating vertical-specific (VS) records from data sources. Each VS record includes a vertical identifier and a set of VS data fields. The method further comprises generating, for each VS record, an entity partial (EP) record that includes EP data fields populated from the VS data fields. The EP data fields include an entity ID that indicates an entity for the EP record, a source data field that identifies a data source, and an EP searchable data field including data that is descriptive of the entity. The method further comprises generating a search record for each entity ID by combining data from EP records. The data from the EP records is combined based on the source data included in the EP records. Each search record includes a search record searchable data field that includes data from one or more of the EP searchable data fields.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2020Publication date: December 17, 2020Applicant: Branch Metrics, Inc.Inventors: Eric Glover, Jonas Bauer, Rishi Khaitan, Matthew Dale, Dmitri Gaskin, Charles Gilliam, Pavan Achanta, Zachary Joel Rivest, Nicholas Chen

Publication number: 20200322443Abstract: In networked communication systems, a document in a communication (e.g., a response) may be similar between multiple communications involving the same resource, such that duplicate data can be discarded and not stored by a network storage system. Storage of differences in network traffic facilitates compression of storage of network traffic, thereby significantly reducing data storage. Techniques are disclosed for efficient search and retrieval of the compressed data storage. Network traffic may be compared to communications in previous network traffic to identify differences if any. Resource templates may be generated for different (e.g., new) resources identified in network traffic. Storage of the different resources identified in network traffic enables compression of network traffic. Similarity matching may be implemented to improve processing performance for compact storage of network traffic, including determining differences in network traffic for storage.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2020Publication date: October 8, 2020Applicant: Quantum Metric, Inc.Inventors: Mario Luciano Ciabarra, JR., Yiduo Wang

Publication number: 20200250025Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for monitoring operation of and/or interaction with a website to detect events (“frustration events”). In at least one embodiment, a detection system is disclosed that can monitor a website for the same or unrelated interaction and operation to detect events that affect the performance of a website, while contributing to the frustration of user interaction with the website. The detection system can monitor interaction with and/or operation of one or more documents of a website. Interactions with a website, operations of the website, or a combination thereof, may be assessed with respect to a threshold defining an event. One or more criteria (e.g., a time period) of the event may be assessed for the interactions and operations. Event data may be generated for the event(s) that occur, and the event data may be sent to a host system to adjust operation of the website.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2020Publication date: August 6, 2020Applicant: Quantum Metric, Inc.Inventors: Mario Luciano Ciabarra, JR., Joseph Eric Pastuer

Publication number: 20200210641Abstract: Techniques can capture, store, and regenerate a view of content in applications (e.g., native applications) on devices (e.g., a mobile device). A capture management system can produce compact data storage of views of content in an application on a device and the efficient search thereof of views of content provided in the application. The views of content can be translated into a transportable data layer, such as HTML, and captured using delta encoding to identify changes and modifications in content accessed in any application at a device. A capture management system can accurately and efficiently capture events displayed for an application at a device and send the events to a server-side system, which can combine the events to reassemble the events. A user interface and user interaction events on an application at a mobile device can be reassembled for the purpose of playback and analysis of interactions with the application.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2020Publication date: July 2, 2020Applicant: Quantum Metric, Inc.Inventors: Mario Luciano Ciabarra, JR., Joseph Eric Pastuer

Patent number: 10667101Abstract: A contextual deep linking server receives a request associated with a valid contextual deep link from a client device, the contextual deep link associated with link data indicating a particular configuration of an application. The server also receives, after determining that the client device has stored a previously generated fingerprint, stored contextual information for the client device identified by a locally stored fingerprint that matches the previously generated fingerprint. The server then generates, after determining that the client device does not have the previously generated fingerprint, a unique fingerprint of the client device based on a plurality of characteristics of the client device and determining contextual information of the request based on a characteristic of the client device. The server also transmits a response to the client device that is selected based on the contextual information of the client device such that the response is operable on the client device.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2018Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Branch Metrics, Inc.Inventors: Michael Charles Molinet, Maria Madalina Seghete, Alexander John Austin, Dmitri Gaskin

Patent number: 10665439Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for the identification and/or characterization of properties of a sample using mass spectrometry. The method involves using a measured spectrum of data from a sample taken with a mass spectrometer, deconvoluting the measured spectrum of data by applying parsimony weighting to minimize the number of charge states based on one or more of: the number of intense peaks in the mass spectrum; the number of harmonic relationships (e.g., masses in small integer ratios); and the number of off-by-one relationships (e.g., m/z bins with high probability for two adjacent charges). Thus, the underlying m/z spectrum may be inferred from the family of plausible deconvoluted spectra determined by applying parsimony and the inferred m/z spectrum may be used to identify and/or characterize the sample.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2019Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Protein Metrics Inc.Inventor: Marshall Bern
