  • Patent number: 11860849
    Abstract: Various embodiments set forth systems and techniques for concurrent log and dump processing. The techniques include selecting, from a datastore, a chunk comprising one or more rows of data; comparing the one or more rows of data in the chunk with a first set of log events in a change log associated with the datastore, wherein each log event included in the first set of log events occurs after a first log event in the change log and prior to a second log event in the change log; selecting, based on the comparison, one or more non-conflicting rows in the chunk; and transmitting, to an output, one or more log events associated with the one or more non-conflicting rows in the chunk prior to processing a second set of log events in the change log, wherein the second set of log events occur after the second log event.

  • Patent number: 11847129
    Abstract: A cognate specification system manages and enforces digital, canonical representations of entities that are added to and in the system by creating a composite entity key (“EntityKey”) that uniquely and immutably identifies each entity within the system, and that is created based upon the attributes of the entity rather than being arbitrarily assigned. Entities may be organized into various types or cognates, each associated with distinct sets of attributes. A physical or digital referent may be added to the system as an entity by specifying attributes. In such a system, any entity, whether a physical or digital referent, a process, or other type, is uniquely and verifiably identifiable, and may be linked to or associated with other entities, allowing users of the system to produce and access specification granularity beyond traditional approaches focused on systems interoperability.

  • Patent number: 11841893
    Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to a data processing system to coordinate parallel processing of audio queries across multiple devices. A data processing system can receive an audio input signal detected the display device and parse the audio input signal to identify an entity. The data processing system can transmit a query command to the display device to cause a multimedia content application to perform a search for the entity. The data processing system can access at least one of an address database and a multimedia content provider to identify a reference address for the entity. The data processing system can provide the reference address for the entity to cause the display device to present a content selection interface. The content selection interface can include an element for the reference address, prior to completion of the search for the entity performed by the multimedia content application.

  • Patent number: 11836163
    Abstract: A set of clusters from a first set of vector representations (VRs) is identified. A center associated with each cluster from the set of clusters to generate a set of centers is determined. For each VR from the first set of VRs, and to generate a first set of distributions, a distribution of that VR is determined that indicates, for each center from the set of centers, similarity between that VR and that center. For each VR from a second set of VRs, and to generate a second set of distributions, a distribution of that VR is determined that indicates, for each center from the set of centers, similarity between that VR and that center. A set of divergence metrics associated with the first set of VRs and the second set of VRs are computed based on comparing the first set of distributions and the second set of distributions.

  • Patent number: 11803591
    Abstract: A multi-dimensional database and indexes and operations on the multi-dimensional database are described which include video search applications or other similar sequence or structure searches. Traversal indexes utilize highly discriminative information about images and video sequences or about object shapes. Global and local signatures around keypoints are used for compact and robust retrieval and discriminative information content of images or video sequences of interest. For other objects or structures relevant signature of pattern or structure are used for traversal indexes. Traversal indexes are stored in leaf nodes along with distance measures and occurrence of similar images in the database. During a sequence query, correlation scores are calculated for single frame, for frame sequence, and video clips, or for other objects or structures.

  • Patent number: 11782953
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to providing metadata access to distributed data lake users. In some embodiments, a computing platform may load metadata from an external metadata database into a staging database. Then, the computing platform may transform the metadata in the staging database and move the transformed metadata to a master database. The master database may comprise information indicating a relationship between the transformed metadata and one or more distributed data lakes. The computing platform may receive a request to access one or more metadata items. Then, the computing platform may authorize a distributed computing cluster user to access at least one metadata item based on the information. Based on the authorization, the computing platform may provide, to the distributed computing cluster user, access to the at least one metadata item of the one or more metadata items.

  • Patent number: 11782898
    Abstract: A server includes a content storage medium configured to store content data of content usable in different types of games. The server, upon a transmission request, sends content data to an information-processing device, and retains the sent content data in the content storage medium wherein sending the content data again is prohibited. The server, when the content data is sent from the information-processing device, receives the content data, assigns a new ID to the received content data in case the received content data lacks the ID, and stores the received content data in the content storage medium wherein sending the content data is allowed.

  • Patent number: 11768809
    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for computer system data management. A leader node that is in a leader-follower relationship with a follower node is deployed to manage metadata across a plurality of interconnected computing nodes of the computer system. Upon a failure of any sort that results in a loss of operation or a disconnection of the leader node, the followers undertake steps to bring up a new leader. Such steps to bring up a new leader include electing a new leader to replace the lost or disconnected leader and initializing the data state of the new leader node by causing the leader to request incremental snapshots from followers. Additional metadata that might have changed since closing the incremental snapshots can also be retrieved from the followers. The metadata that might have changed since the time of closing the incremental snapshot is subjected to verification using a consensus algorithm.

  • Patent number: 11770386
    Abstract: A multiresolution parser (MRP) can selectively extract one or more information units from a dataset based on the available processing capacity and/or the arrival rate of the dataset. Should any of these parameters change, the MRP can adaptively change the information units to be extracted such that the benefit or value of the extracted information is maximized while minimizing the cost of extraction. This tradeoff is facilitated, at least in part, by an analysis of the spectral energy of the datasets expected to be processed by the MRP. The MRP can also determine its state after a processing iteration and use that state information in subsequent iterations to minimize the required computations in such subsequent iterations, so as to improve processing efficiency.
