Abstract: Techniques are provided herein for generating improved document summaries that consider the amount of time that has passed since the user last accessed the document. The length of time that has passed since the user has accessed each previous portion of the document is used as a variable to determine how much the summary should focus on each of the previously read sections of the document. When a document is accessed by a user, a relevance score is assigned to content from previously accessed sections of that document, where the relevance score is weighted based on how long ago each of the sections was accessed by the user. Once the various content items of previous sections have been provided relevance scores, selected sentences with the highest relevance scores are fed to a deep learning sequence-to-sequence model is used to build the document summary.

Abstract: A file server receives a request for data from a user device. The data is represented at the file server by a virtual cluster descriptor. The file server queries an identifier map using an identifier of the virtual cluster descriptor. Responsive to the identifier map indicating that the requested data is stored at a location remote from the file server, the file server accesses a cold tier translation table that stores a mapping between an identifier of each of a plurality of virtual cluster descriptors and a storage location of data associated with the respective virtual cluster descriptor. The cold tier translation table is queried using the identifier of the virtual cluster descriptor to identify a storage location of the requested data, and the data is loaded to the file server from the identified storage location.

The transaction machine provides the payor a user interface to enter a passcode that uniquely identifies the payment transaction. The passcode can be generated by a provider computing system associated with the transaction machine and provided directly to the payee or through the payor prior to the transaction. The transaction machine provides the payor a user interface to enter an amount. The transaction machine also provides the payor the ability to make a payment at the transaction machine using various modes of payment such as cash, credit card, or cryptocurrency. The transaction machine verifies that the payment matches the user selected amount, and sends a payment notification to the payor.
