Abstract: A system for text summarization includes an encoder for encoding input tokens of a document and a decoder for emitting summary tokens which summarize the document based on the encoded input tokens. At each iteration the decoder generates attention scores between a current hidden state of the decoder and previous hidden states of the decoder, generates a current decoder context from the attention scores and the previous hidden states of the decoder, and selects a next summary token based on the current decoder context and a current encoder context of the encoder. The attention scores penalize candidate summary tokens having high attention scores in previous iterations. In some embodiments, the attention scores include an attention score for each of the previous hidden states of the decoder. In some embodiments, the selection of the next summary token prevents emission of repeated summary phrases in a summary of the document.

Abstract: An interaction manager assigns messages posted on a social media website to a support case in a database system. A support agent may tag a message posted by a user for directing to the support case. The interaction manger assigns the tagged message to the support case and activates a timer to track a time period. During the time period, the interaction manager assigns other messages posted by the same user to the support case. The interaction manager may reset the time period whenever the support agent replies to one of the messages posted by the user or the support agent tags another one of the user messages for directing to the support case. The interaction manager reduces the burden of having to manually review and manage every message posted on the social media website.

Abstract: Systems and methods for changing database passwords are described. A first server computing system receives an indication to perform a password change process for an administrative account of an associated database. The server generates a vault configured to store a password change status and a password secret associated with the account. The server sets the password change status to a first value to indicate that the server is performing the password change process and then performs the password change process for the account. The server then sets the password change status to a second value to enable a second server computing system to perform a second password change process for a second administrative account of a database associated with the second server system. The database associated with the second server computing system is a standby database of the database associated with the first server system.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to retrieving data from an in-memory cache, such as that for a database system. In various embodiments, an in-memory cache receives a request from an application for data, where the request specifies a class having a function executable to access the data from a location external to the cache in response to a cache miss. The cache handles the request such that the cache miss is not returned to the application. Specifically, the cache, in some embodiments, determines whether it stores the requested data, and in response to determining that it does not store the data, calls the function of the class to access the data from the location external to the cache and receives the data returned by the execution of the function. The cache then stores the received data in the cache and returns the received data in response to the request.
