Abstract: A runtime agent that is executable on a virtual machine may obtain one or more identifiers that correspond to one or more software classes from a first configuration file that is configured for the runtime agent. The runtime agent may monitor for loading of the one or more software classes by a first computer program that is being executed on the virtual machine. Further, the runtime agent may execute one or more actions based on detecting the loading of the one or more software classes by the first computer program where the one or more actions may impact the execution of the first computer program on the virtual machine.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed that relate to skip lists. A computer system maintains a skip list having towers of varying depths and entries storing pointers to other towers. A first tower includes an entry at a particular depth storing a pointer to access an entry of a second tower. The pointer includes first similarity information indicating an amount of similarity between a key of the first tower and a key of the second tower. The computer system performs a traversal of the skip list for a search key. The computer system generates second similarity information indicating an amount of similarity between the first tower's key and the search key. Based on a comparison involving the first and second similarity information and without accessing the second tower to obtain information about its key, the computer system determines whether to traverse to the second tower using the pointer or descend the first tower.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed that pertain to linked database systems. A computer system implements a first database system that manages a table storing data for a tenant. The computer system may receive an indication to provision, at a second database system having a database management engine of a different type than a database management engine of the first database system, data of the tenant stored in the table. The computer system provisions the data in data structures at the second database system and permits the tenant to perform, on the data, a first set of operations at the first database system and a second set of operations at the second database system. The second set of operations includes functionality not included in the first set of operations. The computer system may receive a result of processing by the tenant using the second database system and store the result in the table.

Abstract: An extensible platform-as-a-service (PaaS) system is used during the software development lifecycle (SDLC) processes of an application. The system facilitates the process of getting security approval for the application. The system allows developers to use software bundles including software modules that are pre-approved. The system allows a developer to customize one or more software modules of the software bundle if necessary. The system monitors the development of the application to check if the developer customizes any software module to use a configuration that is not pre-approved. The system automatically generates a report noting the customization to the software module and requests the security team to review the modified configuration for security approval.

Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for categorizing a sentence as a question. Rather than using a single model, several different models are leveraged to determine whether a sentence is a question. For example, the models can include an inverse text normalization (ITN) model, a sentence embeddings model, and a Term frequency inverse document frequency (TFIDF) model. The output of an ITN model is processed using a finite state transducer (FST) while the output of the sentence embeddings model and TFIDF model are processed using logistics regression (LR) models. A support vector machine (SVM) is then applied to the output of the FST and LR models to determine whether the sentence is a question.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to implementing multiple index scans. A computer system may store a database table comprising fields and indexes corresponding to those fields. The computer system may receive a request to access records based on a Boolean expression that affects a selection of records from the database table and that comprises clauses, at least two of which are joined by an AND operation. The computer system may access the requested records. The accessing may include, for a given one of the at least two clauses, performing an index scan on an index that corresponds to the given clause to identify records that satisfy that clause. The computer system may update a hash table based on the identified records and then identify the requested records based on the hash table. The Boolean expression may include clauses joined by an OR operation that are processed using multiple index scans.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic program repair using neural network models are described. After a first buggy code patch is received, a first representation of the first buggy code patch is generated using a retriever encoder of a patch retriever. The patch retriever retrieves, based on the first representation, a first bug-fix code pair from a first plurality of bug-fix code pairs. A first augmented buggy code patch is generated based on the first buggy code patch and the first bug-fix code pair. A patch generator generates a fixed code patch based on the first augmented buggy code patch.

Abstract: A multi-view contrastive relational learning framework is provided. In the multi-view contrastive relational learning framework, contrastive learning is augmented with a multi-view learning signal. The auxiliary views guide an encoder of the underlying time series data's main view, by using an inter-sample similarity structure as a learning signal to learn representations which encode information from multiple views.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed that relate to capturing and replaying database queries to assess the impacts of updates to a database system. A system may receive a plurality of queries from a set of users to execute against a database that stores data. The system identifies one or more of the queries that are deemed relevant to updates being made to the database system. The system executes the received queries and captures query execution information for the one or more identified queries. The system replays, based on the execution information, the one or more queries using the database system with the one or more updates enabled to determine a first performance of the database system. The system may generate a report indicating whether the first performance represents a reduction in performance relative to a second performance of the database system with the one or more updates disabled.

Abstract: Natural language generation technology is disclosed that applies artificial intelligence to structured data to determine content for expression in natural language narratives that describe the structured data. A story graph is employed, where the story graph comprises a plurality of items of content to be expressed in a natural language narrative. A processor executes structurer code based on a plurality of operating rules and/or parameters that control how the structurer code organizes the items of content into a story outline from which the natural language narrative is generated, wherein the operating rules and/or parameters are configurable to change strategies for organizing the items of content into the story outline.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for training a sequential recommendation model. Methods include determining a difficulty and quality (DQ) score associated with user behavior sequences from a training dataset. User behavior sequences are sampled during training based on their DQ scores. A meta-extrapolator may also be trained based on user behavior sequences sampled according to DQ score. The meta-extrapolator may be trained with high quality low difficulty sequences. The meta-extrapolator may then be used with an input of high quality high difficulty sequences to generate synthetic user behavior sequences. The synthetic user behavior sequences may be used to augment the training dataset to fine-tune the sequential recommendation model, while continuing to sample user behavior sequences based on DQ score. As the DQ score is based on current model predictions, DQ scores iteratively update during the training process.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to a database system. The database system includes multiple coordinator nodes storing replicas of a partition. Each partition describes the state of locks and transactions for keys covered by that partition of keys. Each partition is, in turn, replicated. The multiple coordinator nodes receive, from multiple worker nodes, requests to grant a lock for a key to permit a worker node to write a record for the key as part of executing a transaction. A given coordinator node of the multiple coordinator nodes sends an approval response for the lock to at most one of the worker nodes. A single worker node acquires the lock in response to receiving approval responses from a majority of the multiple coordinator nodes, and none of the multiple worker nodes acquire the lock in response to none of them receiving approval responses from a majority of the multiple coordinator nodes.
