Abstract: A replicated block storage service provides durable and high performance network-attached storage replicated in two or more zones of a single region, and remains available despite a single zone failure. A probe file is generated to determine a health state of a replicated disk. When a disk is degraded, a lease is created indicating which replica is trusted and providing visibility to backend jobs to facilitate reconciliation of data between the first replica and the second replica. Moreover, degraded file markers are generated for use by the backend jobs in quickly identifying the data to be copied.

Abstract: An online concierge system generates an item graph connecting item nodes with attribute nodes of the items. Example attributes include a brand, a category, a department, or any other suitable information about the item. When the online concierge system receives a search query to identify one or more items from a customer, the online concierge system parses the search query into combinations of terms and identifies item nodes and attribute nodes related to the search query. The online concierge system identifies item nodes and attribute nodes that are likely to result in a conversion. Information about the identified nodes is presented to the customer. The customer may select an item node to purchase the item, or an attribute node to execute a new search query based on terms associated with the attribute node.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for organizing a plurality of files to be stored on a cloud file system.

Abstract: A file system is implemented in a system comprising an anonymous-write storage device. A request for a file system operation that comprises semantics of the file system to receiving the request is received. The file system translates the file system operation to one or more commands that effect the file system operation while maintaining consistency with operation of the anonymous-write storage device. The one or more commands comprise one or more of updating file system metadata, sending a request to the anonymous-write storage device, or receiving a response from the anonymous-write storage device. The anonymous-write storage device is configured to write data in an append-only format and determine locations of data write operations agnostic of input of a write location from the file system. Metadata is updated to indicate results of the file system operation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for retrieving image search results using embedding neural network models. In one aspect, an image search query is received. A respective pair numeric embedding for each of a plurality of image-landing page pairs is determined. Each pair numeric embedding is a numeric representation in an embedding space. An image search query embedding neural network processes features of the image search query and generates a query numeric embedding. The query numeric embedding is a numeric representation of the image search query in the same embedding space. A subset of the image-landing page pairs having pair numeric embeddings that are closest to the query numeric embedding of the image search query in the embedding space are identified as first candidate image search results.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for information retrieval. Embodiments of the disclosure provide a retrieval network that leverages external knowledge to provide reformulated search query suggestions, enabling more efficient network searching and information retrieval. For example, a search query from a user (e.g., a query mention of a knowledge graph entity that is included in a search query from a user) may be added to a knowledge graph as a surrogate entity via entity linking. Embedding techniques are then invoked on the updated knowledge graph (e.g., the knowledge graph that includes additional edges between surrogate entities and other entities of the original knowledge graph), and entities neighboring the surrogate entity are retrieved based on the embedding (e.g., based on a computed distance between the surrogate entity and candidate entities in the embedding space). Search results can then be ranked and displayed based on relevance to the neighboring entity.

Abstract: A system enables metadata to be gathered about a data store beginning from the creation and generation of the data store, through subsequent use of the data store. This metadata can include keywords related to the data store and data appearing within the data store. Thus, keywords and other metadata can be generated without owner/creator intervention, with enough semantic meaning to make a discovery process associated with the data store much easier and efficient. Usage of or communication regarding a data store are monitored and keywords are extracted from the usage or communication. The keywords are then written to otherwise associated with metadata of the data store. During searching, keywords in the metadata are made available to be used to attempt to match query terms entered by a searcher.

Abstract: Methods and systems for improved categorization of queries are disclosed. In one aspect, a search query is received and determined to match a pattern having an uncategorized variable placeholder portion. In response to determining the search query matches the pattern, the pattern is used to identify a first portion of the search query based on the first portion of the search query corresponding to the uncategorized variable placeholder portion of the pattern. The search query is categorized by assigning, to the search query, a category associated with the first portion of the search query. Search results are generated for the search query using the category associated with the first portion of the search query.

Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to auto-adjusting play time of slides based on content intelligence. The system accesses media comprising a plurality of media items, wherein a media item of the plurality of media items comprises a first content type. The system performs machine analysis associated with the first content type. Based on the machine analysis, the system determines a first display time for the first content type and derives a total display time for the media item based on the first display time. If the media item includes a second content type, then the system performs machine analysis associated with the second content type and determines a second display time for the second content type. The total display time now comprises an aggregation of the first and second display times. The system can cause a machine action based on the total display time.

The computing device stores a graph data store with a plurality of nodes and edges in persistent memory. Each of the edges defines the relationship between at least two of the nodes. The nodes and edges may contain tags and properties containing additional information. In response to a search request query, the computing device generates an iterator object stored in volatile memory with a reference to one or more nodes and/or edges in the graph data store. The split between volatile and persistent memory allocation could be used for other objects, such as allocators and transactions. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
