Abstract: Approaches for large-scale classification and text summarization. In one embodiment, for example, the approach for large-scale classification includes predicting relevant classes of a new unseen case based on a classification model that is learned from a given knowledge base comprising labeled training data items. In another embodiment, for example, the approach for text summarization includes repurposing explicit semantic analysis (ESA) techniques for computing a text summary of a given text document.

Abstract: A method for projection mining comprises performing a first projection on a first data object of a first type comprising a plurality of data entries and a second data object of a second type comprising a plurality of data entries to create definitions of attributes of the first data object and definitions of attributes of the second data object, performing a second projection of the definitions of the attributes of the first data object and the definitions of the attributes of the second data object into a space of meta-attributes based on semantic relationships among the attributes of the first data object and the second data object, learning relationships between the space of meta-attributes formed by the projections of the first data object and the second data object and a space of meta-attributes relating to new data not included in the first data object and the second data object, and generating at least one new data object of the first or second type based on the new data using the learned relationships

Abstract: An incident predictor system is described herein for predicting impactful incidents in which server computer system operations fail or perform poorly. According to one embodiment of the invention, the incident prediction system trains a generalized linear model (GLM) to predict when a system health indicator will reach a level that represents an incident for the server system.

Abstract: A method is provided for detecting when users are being adversely impacted by poor system performance. A system health indicator is determined that is based on the amount of work that is blocked waiting for each of a set of an external events and combined with a heuristic that is based on the number of users waiting for the work to complete. The system health indicator is compared to a threshold such that an alert is generated when the system health indicator crosses the threshold. However, the system health indicator is designed so that an alert is only generated when a significant user base is or will in the near future experience a problem with the system. Furthermore, the system health indicator is designed to vary smoothly to maintain its suitability for the application of predictive technology.
