  • Patent number: 11886466
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to data processing model recommendation and simulation. A model catalog executing on a cloud infrastructure (CI) system can parse data from an obtained dataset identifying aspects of the dataset. The parsed data from the dataset can be compared with a plurality of potential models stored in a domain ontology store of the model catalog to identify one or more recommended models. A simulation of any of the recommended models can be executed using a portion of the dataset to provide insights into output data resulting from executing the recommended model. The output data resulting from the simulation of the recommended model can be provided to the client for the client to either accept or reject the model.

  • Patent number: 11853362
    Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for assisting a user in advancing a task objective. The technique uses a suggestion-generating system (SGS) to provide one or more suggestions to a user in response to at least a last-submitted query provided by the user. The SGS may correspond to a classification-type or generative-type neural network. The SGS uses a machine-trained model that is trained using a multi-task training framework based on plural groups of training examples, which, in turn, are produced using different respective example-generating methods. One such example-generating method constructs a training example from queries in a search session. It operates by identifying the task-related intent the queries, and then identifying at least one sequence of queries in the search session that exhibits a coherent task-related intent. A training example is constructed based on queries in such a sequence.

  • Patent number: 11842293
    Abstract: Computing systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media are provided. An average percentage of identifier collisions are determined in historical event data based on short identifiers associated with a first event location or a second event location geographically dispersed from each other. Behavioral models are generated based on behavior analytics of short identifiers in the historical event data. Adjusted behavioral models are generated based on the average percentage of identifier collisions. A client device obtains a short identifier and an adjusted behavioral model is determined. Whether the short identifier is associated with a previous event of a first event type at the first event location is determined. A new event value or an intermediate event value for the first event type is calculated. The client device is notified using the new event value or the intermediate event value, whereby the client device displays a notification.
