  • Patent number: 11868320
    Abstract: Computerized systems for detecting and modifying routing of an electronic file are A provided for one or more databases. The systems receive and parse electronic files to detect one or more keys in the electronic files that are indicative of potential routing destinations associated with the one or more detected keys. A determination is then made of one or more corresponding and likely routing destinations for the electronic files, from a set of potential routing destinations, specifically based on the one or more keys and/or other user input reflective of a desired destination. The systems further identify one or more changes (based on historical data, user input, destination storage attributes, key attributes and/or other data), which are operable, when/if made to the electronic file, to trigger a different set of one or more corresponding routing destinations for the electronic file.

  • Patent number: 11720610
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing entity relation extraction across sentences in a document using distant supervision are disclosed. A computing device can receive an input, such as a document comprising a plurality of sentences. The computing device can identify syntactic and/or semantic links between words in a sentence and/or between words in different sentences, and extract relationships between entities throughout the document. A knowledge base (e.g., a table, chart, database etc.) of entity relations based on the extracted relationships can be populated. An output of the populated knowledge base can be used by a classifier to identify additional relationships between entities in various documents. Machine learning can be applied to train the classifier to predict relations between entities. The classifier can be trained using known entity relations, syntactic links and/or semantic links.

  • Patent number: 11645294
    Abstract: Systems and methods for very fast grouping of “similar” SQL queries according to user-supplied similarity criteria. The user-supplied similarity criteria include a threshold quantifying the degree of similarity between SQL queries and common artifacts included in the queries. A similarity-characterizing data structure allows for the very fast grouping of “similar” SQL queries. Because the computation is distributed among multiple compute nodes, a small cluster of compute nodes takes a short time to compute the similarity-characterizing data on a workload of tens of millions of queries. The user can supply the similarity criteria through a UI or a command line tool. Furthermore, the user can adjust the degree of similarity by supplying new similarity criteria. Accordingly, the system can display in real time or near real time, updated SQL groupings corresponding to the newly supplied similarity criteria using the originally computed similarity-characterizing data structure.

  • Patent number: 11636130
    Abstract: Planning granularities can be stored for data elements including a first granularity for a first data combination, the first data combination including a combination of multiple dimensions of data. A comparison metric can be calculated between planned data at the first granularity for the first data combination and actual data observed for the first data combination, wherein the observed data is stored at a different granularity than the planned data. Based on the calculated comparison, the planning granularity for the first data combination can be adjusted from the first granularity to a second granularity. A selection of a cross-section of data spanning multiple dimensions can be received, the selection including the first data combination, wherein a user interface is configured to display data for the first data element at the second granularity based on the adjusting.
