  • Patent number: 12287792
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for supporting dense retrieval of a template (e.g., a document template) for responding to a query or other textual input. The templates and past queries that were responded to using the templates are stored. A machine-learning model for matching a new query to the most appropriate template is trained using a selected subset of the stored queries as training queries. For each of one or more training batches or phases, multiple stored templates are selected (e.g., randomly) then, from among all training queries that the selected templates were used for, the same number of queries are selected (e.g., randomly), such that they represent the distribution of the training queries among the selected templates. A unique loss function is computed that leverages similarities and differences not only between each selected training query and each selected template, but also between different queries and between different templates.

  • Patent number: 12277050
    Abstract: A device is disclosed for source knowledge generation. The device identifies external systems storing API documentation and crawls the external systems to extract documents representing information describing APIs for accessing the one or more data source systems. The device generates a plurality of vector representations by, for each document, providing the document to a large language model to generate a vector representation of the document and generates an index that maps each vector representation to its respective document. The device extracts information describing a data connector by querying the index, the query corresponding to a particular type of data source, and generates a connector representation based on the information describing the data connector extracted from the index, wherein the connector representation is used for generating and deploying a data connector for accessing data from a data source system of the particular type of data source.

  • Patent number: 12242451
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a program that receives a set of data for a first record in a first table. The set of data comprises a set of values for a set of attributes. In a data loading process configured to load a subset of the set of data into a subset of a first set of columns in the first table, the program determines that a first column in a first set of columns does not belong in the subset of the first set of columns. The program generates the first record in the first table. The program generates a value for the first column in the first set of columns that refers to a second record in the second table configured to represent a defined type of record. The program stores the value in the first column in the first set of columns of the first record.

  • Patent number: 12235796
    Abstract: Committing of mappings and data lock transitioning associated with files can be performed and managed. Regarding a write operation to write a file portion to a node of a node network, network management component (NMC) can analyze write stream value associated with file portion and write stream-related index value associated with the file, where write stream-related index values can be associated with tracks of a track table. Based on the analyzing, NMC can determine whether a file access pattern associated with file portion is sequential or random; and, if sequential, whether there is an overflow condition associated with the track table. If sequential, and an overflow condition exists, NMC can commit, to data store, a mapping of another file portion associated with another stored stream value stored in track table, and/or transition exclusive data lock to shared data lock with respect to the other file portion.

  • Patent number: 12235818
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system and techniques for resolving dangling references resulting from a dependency relationship between computing resource objects uncovered during a harvesting process. In embodiments, a harvester application adds computing resource objects associated with a client to a resource collection as those computing resource objects are identified. Dependencies are identified as each computing resource object is added to the resource collection, which are resolved only if the computing resource objects associated with those dependencies have already been added to the resource collection. If the computing resource objects associated with the dependencies have not already been added to the resource collection, then the dependency is added to an observer pool. Observer modules are configured to check each computing resource object as it is processed during the harvest process in order to match those computing resource objects to unresolved dependencies.

  • Patent number: 12216714
    Abstract: A method and system of classifying documents is disclosed. The method includes determining line-text data for each of a plurality of lines of the document image using a text extraction technique. A set of unique keywords in the document image is determined based on a predefined list of keywords in the line-text data for each of the plurality of lines. For each keyword, two forward nodes are determined as next two subsequent keywords in the set of unique keywords based on determination of a shortest distance between the corresponding keyword and the next two subsequent keywords and based on the pre-defined reading sequence. Weights of each of the two forward nodes are determined based on the shortest distance and an angle of each of the two forward nodes with the corresponding keyword. A cluster is determined based on the feature matrix using a machine learning clustering model.

  • Patent number: 12169498
    Abstract: Metric time series (MTS) data objects stored within in-memory storage are marked as inactive in response to determining that no MTS data has been received for the MTS objects within a first predetermined time period. In response to determining that an MTS object has been inactive for longer than a second predetermined time period, the MTS data object is migrated from in-memory storage to on-disk storage. Queries directed to MTS objects are first run against MTS object data stored within in-memory storage, and then against MTS object data stored within on-disk storage. In this way, an amount of in-memory storage needed to store MTS objects may be minimized, while optimizing search performance.

  • Patent number: 12141114
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method accelerates cognitive intelligence queries to a database using semantic keys. A computing device receives a database. The computing device inserts one or more key-value pairs into the database, where the key is a semantic key that is generated from a binary codeword built from a locality sensitive hashing of one or more vectors in a database embedding model of the database, and where the value is a tuple in the database that identifies entries in the database that share predefined features. The computing device uses the one or more key-value pairs for accelerating cognitive intelligence queries to the database.

  • Patent number: 12140442
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for aggregating informational reports. In one implementation, at least one processor may be programmed to receive an informational vehicle report identifying a detected event; store the report in a database in association with a first cell; query a second cell within a predetermined distance of the first cell; and determine whether the second cell is associated with the detected event. When the second cell is associated with the detected event the processor may aggregate information from the first and second cells to provide an aggregated cluster and generate an event report based on the aggregated cluster. When the second cell is not associated with an information cluster associated with the detected event, the processor may generate the event report based on the stored informational vehicle report. The processor may then transmit the event report to one or more vehicles.
