The sketch response includes at least one sketch tag to be replaced by knowledge base information from the memory. The system generates the dialogue computer response using the local memory pointer to select a word from the filtered knowledge base information to replace the at least one sketch tag in the sketch response.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to providing and using probabilistic data structures to at least reduce requests between database nodes. In various embodiments, a first database node processes a database transaction that involves writing a set of database records to an in-memory cache of the first database node. As part of processing the database transaction, the first database node may insert, in a set of probabilistic data structures, a set of database keys that correspond to the set of database records. The first database node may send, to a second database node, the set of probabilistic data structures to enable the second database node to determine whether to request, from the first database node, a database record associated with a database key.
