Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a watched questions threshold filtering system that functions to determine and deliver to a user relevant and significant data changes with respect to a user's goals, as defined by a notification threshold value provided by the user. The user is provided with an option to flag one or more queries for automatic re-querying. Confidence scores are processed on new data (i.e., data ingested after the original question was asked) by utilizing a confidence threshold for indicating if the new data warrants alerting a user.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide techniques for maintaining consistency in a distributed system (e.g., a distributed secondary storage system). According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a first set of file system objects included in performing the requested file system operation is identified in response to a request to perform a file system operation. An update intent corresponding to the requested file system operation is inserted into an inode associated with each identified file system object. Each file system object corresponding to the inode is modified as specified by the update intent in that inode. After modifying the file system object corresponding to the inode, the update intent is removed from that inode.

Abstract: A method for indexing with redundant information. The method may identify unknown code points for a document in response to an indexing request for the document. The method may further convert the identified unknown code points into a plurality of converted code points. Each set of converted code points of the plurality uses a different codepage. The method may further identify sets of same code points and sets of redundant code points from the plurality of converted code points. The method may build an index based on the sets of same code points and the sets of redundant code points.

Abstract: At a device of a sender, a screen capture image is captured from a first portion of data presented on the device by a data source. Historical messaging data is analyzed to compute a set of topics in which the sender has participated. Using a topic from the set of topics as a context, a second portion of the data presented on the device by the data source is searched to extract an additional information from the second portion, the additional information corresponding to the context. the additional information is associated with the screen capture image. The screen capture image and the additional information are caused to be transmitted in a messaging channel.

Abstract: System and method for distributing channelized content to a plurality of cohesive local networks. The channelized content is aggregated at a remote central processor with associated storage according to ontological relevancy, and then distributed over a network such as the internet to the local networks. The consumers connected to the respective local networks receive that channelized data with low latency and improved data rates.

Abstract: A mechanism for progressive topic modeling is disclosed to facilitate document content analysis. Input documents can be sorted and divided into multiple groups. Topic modeling is performed for each group, where the topic modeling for one group is based on the generated topic model from a previous group, if available. The vocabulary used in the topic modeling process can also be updated for each group of documents. The generated topics can be presented in a user interface to facilitate a user in analyzing the documents. The topic modeling mechanism can also be utilized to enhance a document search experience by generating topics from documents contained in search results and presenting topic words to a user as suggested search terms.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for clustering multiple devices that are associated with particular users by utilizing both probabilistic and deterministic data derived from analytics information on the users. An analytics computing system generates at least one deterministic device cluster that groups a first set of devices associated with a first user. The first set of devices share deterministic user identifiers specific to the first user. The analytics computing system also identifies a probabilistic link between a device in the first set of devices and additional devices. The probabilistic link indicates common usage patterns between two devices. Based on the probabilistic link, the analytics computing system generates a data structure that includes the deterministic device cluster and the additional devices.

A second generation subsystem of the question and answer service is configured to generate a second question based at least in-part on keywords from the first question and the first answer.

Abstract: A method of managing data in a telecommunication network data structure is disclosed. The method comprises receiving, by a translation application executing on a telecommunication network computer system, a request to translate source data stored in a source data structure to a target data structure; identifying, by way of information stored in a taxonomy repository, a data store key within the source data; a category of an element of the source data; inferring, by way of information stored in the taxonomy repository a relationship between the data store key and the element; converting, by the translation application, a format of the data store key to a format of a target data store key, and a format of the element to a format of a target element. The method further comprises storing, by the translation application, the target data store key and the target element in the target data structure.

Abstract: Techniques related to accelerated detection of matching patterns are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method may involve, for a single field of a body of records, contiguously storing field values, thereby storing the field values as a concatenation. The method may also involve identifying a match in the concatenation that matches a value pattern specified by a value pattern expression. The value pattern may include a first partial pattern and a second partial pattern. Further, the method may involve determining that the match is contained in a single field value of the body of records. Still further, the method may involve establishing the match as a matching value. The match may be determined to be contained in the single field value based on searching a data structure comprising length information or offset information for a subset of the field values stored as the concatenation.

Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms are disclosed to optimize the size of index files to improve use of storage space available to indexers and other components of a data intake and query system. Index files of a data intake and query system may include, among other data, a keyword portion containing mappings between keywords and location references to event data containing the keywords. Optimizing an amount of storage space used by index files may include removing, modifying and/or recreating various components of index files in response to detecting one or more storage conditions related to the event data indexed by the index files. The optimization of index files generally may attempt to manage a tradeoff between an efficiency with which search requests can be processed using the index files and an amount of storage space occupied by the index files.
