  • Patent number: 11755545
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to estimate audience measurement metrics based on users represented in Bloom filter arrays are disclosed. An apparatus includes a communications interface to receive a first Bloom filter array from a first computer of a first database proprietor. The first Bloom filter array is representative of first users who accessed media. The first users are registered with the first database proprietor. The first Bloom filter array includes a first array of first elements. Values of respective ones of the first elements are either a 0 or a 1 based on whether quantities of the first users allocated to the respective ones of the first elements are even or odd. The apparatus further includes a Bloom filter array analyzer to estimate a first cardinality for the first Bloom filter array. The first cardinality is indicative of a total number of the first users who accessed the media.

  • Patent number: 11709845
    Abstract: Techniques of federation of data during query time are disclosed herein. One example technique includes upon receiving an indication of interaction of a file by a user of a tenant, determining whether automatic replication of the file to a user shard corresponding to the user is permitted according to a company policy or a legal requirement, the user shard being in a second geographic region. The example technique can then include when automatic replication of the file is not permitted, storing the file in a tenant shard corresponding to the tenant in a network storage in the first geographic region and instead of replicating the file to the user shard in the second geographic region, creating, in the user shard in the second geographic region, a file reference that is a pointer to the file stored in the tenant shard in the network storage in the first geographic region.

  • Patent number: 11630818
    Abstract: Performance data characterizing operations of an application may be collected by time interval, and a plurality of keys may be associated with each element of the performance data. A first time interval may be received. An iterative group-and-filter search may be executed against the keyed elements within the first time interval, each iteration including an iteration key used to perform a key-based grouping operation followed by a group-based filter operation, wherein each iteration key is added to a composite key at each iteration. A selection of at least one keyed element within the first time interval and obtained from the iterative group-and-filter search may be received. A second time interval that precedes the first time interval may be received, and the keyed elements may be filtered using the composite key and within the second time interval to return the at least one keyed element within the second time interval.

  • Patent number: 11620263
    Abstract: Data units of a dataset may be compressed by clustering the data units into clusters, selecting a reference unit for each unit cluster, and compressing data units of each unit cluster using the reference unit of the unit cluster as a dictionary. The computational efficiency of the clustering algorithm may be improved by not applying it to data units themselves, but rather to hash values of the data units, where the hash values have a much smaller size than the data units. The hash function may be a locality-sensitive hash (LSH) function. The reference unit of a cluster may be determined in any of a variety of ways, for example, by selecting a centroid or exemplar of the cluster. Clusters, including their references values, may be indexed in a cluster index (e.g., a Faiss index), which may be searched to assign future added or modified data units to clusters.

  • Patent number: 11586699
    Abstract: Systems and methods that offer significant improvements to current content processing management systems for heterogeneous and widely distributed content sources are disclosed. The proposed systems and methods are configured to provide a framework and libraries of extensible components that together are designed enable creation of solutions to acquire data from one or more content repositories, possibly distributed around the world across a wide range of operating systems and hardware, process said content, and publish the resulting processed information to a search engine or other target application. The proposed embodiments offer an improved architecture that incorporates manager nodes and worker (processing) nodes, where worker nodes are configured to scan and process data, while manager nodes are configured to handle all allocation of work (including throttling) and control state and failover. Such an arrangement enables the system to perform with greater scalability and reliability.

  • Patent number: 11580357
    Abstract: A memory for storing a directed acyclic graph (DAG) for access by an application being executed by one or more processors of a computing device is described. The DAG includes a plurality of nodes, wherein each node represents a data point within the DAG. The DAG further includes a plurality of directional edges. Each directional edge connects a pair of the nodes and represents a covering-covered relationship between two nodes. Each node comprises a subgraph consisting of the respective node and all other nodes reachable via a covering path that comprises a sequence of covering and covered nodes. Each node comprises a set of node parameters including at least an identifier and an address range. Each node and the legal address specify a cover path. Utilizing DAG Path Addressing with bindings the memory can be organized to store a generalization hierarchy of logical propositions.

  • Patent number: 11580146
    Abstract: A rule storing unit stores a set of rules each defining facts and a relation between the facts, and weights representing importance levels of the rules. An input data storing unit stores input data. A query storing unit stores a query. An importance level calculating unit calculates an importance level of each fact type of the facts defined by the rules. A fact data generating unit generates, for each fact type, fact data in which true/false is observed as a fact by a number corresponding to the importance level of the fact type, from the input data. A fact data storing unit stores the fact data. An inference performing unit performs probabilistic inference of a result of the query by using the fact data, the rules, and the weights. An output unit outputs a result of the inference.

  • Patent number: 11550811
    Abstract: The cloud hybrid application storage management system spans local data center and cloud-based storage and provides a unified view of content and administration throughout an enterprise. The system manages synchronization of storage locations, ensuring that files are replicated, uniquely identified, and protected against corruption. The system ingests digital media assets and creates instances of the assets with their own identification and rights and houses the identification and relationships in a CAR (Central Asset Registry). The system tracks the different instances of the assets in multiple storage locations using the CAR, which is a central asset registry that ties together disparate digital asset management repository systems (DAMs) and cloud-based storage archives in which the instances reside. While the invention treats and manages multiple files/instances independently, the CAR identifies them as related to each other.

  • Patent number: 11537634
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that provide more efficient hierarchical propagation in tree structures are disclosed. With this technology, a first delta record for a first interior node is created optionally in an atomic transaction along with updating a first tally record for a leaf node based on a first value. The transaction is in response to an action associated with the leaf node and the first interior node is a parent of the leaf node in a hierarchical tree. A timer associated with the first delta record is then set. A second value is updated in a second tally record for the first interior node based on the first value, when the timer has expired. Accordingly, this technology advantageously maintains recursive properties or values throughout a hierarchical tree continually, with reduced cost, even in a distributed network and in hierarchical trees with large numbers of nodes.
