Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus and system for determining accessible paths between two nodes. According to the method of the present disclosure, an adjacency matrix of a graph, which includes a plurality of points and edges connecting the plurality of points, is first established; then, search is made for an accessible path that can reach a destination from a starting point based on the adjacency matrix. Especially, a termination condition for the searching is set based on an already-sought path during the searching, and the corresponding search is terminated in response to the termination condition being met during the searching. With the present disclosure, it may substantially reduce repeated traversal, obvious reduce the time taken to search for accessible paths between two nodes, and significantly improve the efficiency in searching for the accessible path.

Abstract: Herein are spatially scalable techniques for anisotropic compression of shared entropy between alternate representations of same data. In an embodiment, a computer compresses an uncompressed independent column into a compressed independent column. Based on the compressed independent column, an uncompressed dependent column is compressed into a compressed dependent column. The compressed independent column and the compressed dependent column are stored in a same file. In an embodiment, a computer stores, in metadata, an encrypted private key for decrypting an encrypted column. The encrypted column and the metadata are stored in a file. A request to read the encrypted column is received. Based on a public key and the file, the encrypted private key is decrypted into a decrypted private key. The public key is contained in the request and/or the file. The request is executed by decrypting, based on the decrypted private key and the file, the encrypted column.

The function descriptor defines the property of the DSF. The database system uses the function descriptor to define a property for the DSF.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining relevance for a new document are described. Existing documents that have a high probability of relevance can be chosen. A vocabulary of words in the existing documents can be built. Each word can be mapped into a vector such that each existing document can be represented by a sequence of vectors and each sentence and/or paragraph in each existing document can be represented by a subsequence of vectors including a subset of the sequence of vectors. Data augmentation can be applied changing an order of the subsequences in order to create additional documents represented by the subsequences. A deep neural network can be trained using the subsequences that represent the existing documents and the subsequences that represent additional documents. The new documents can be trained using a trained deep neural network. A relevant document can be output using the trained deep neural network.
