  • Publication number: 20240386241
    Abstract: A distributed computing system is configured to perform operations for embedding graphs of large scale. The system can generate node sequences from a target graph, determine training samples, and perform unsupervised learning using counts of co-occurrences between nodes to iteratively update an embedding table and learn a low-dimensional representation of the graph.

  • Patent number: 12136025
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for a graph processing system. In one aspect, the graph processing system obtains data identifying a first node and a second node from a graph of nodes and edges. The system processes numeric embeddings of the first node and the second node using a manifold neural network to generate respective manifold coordinates of the first node and the second node. The system applies a learned edge function to the manifold coordinates of the first node and the manifold coordinates of the second node to generate an edge score that represents a likelihood that an entity represented by the first node and an entity represented by the second node have a particular relationship.

  • Patent number: 12024955
    Abstract: A downhole tool for coupling an electrical connection in the wellbore comprising a locator sub and a receptacle sub. The locator sub can be conveyed into the wellbore with a workstring. The receptacle sub can be coupled to a lower completion with at least one downhole tool. Workstring manipulation can insert the locator sub into the receptacle sub to provide an electrical connection between a resilient connector on the locator sub and ring connector within the receptacle sub. A fluid source fluidically connected to the electrical connection can flush out trapped wellbore fluids via a fluid pathway. The electrical connection can electrically couple to a control system at surface to the at least one downhole tool.

  • Patent number: 11893604
    Abstract: Supplemental content can be determined through a server-side process, wherein a primary content provider can obtain the supplemental content from a supplemental content provider before any of the content is sent to the client device initially requesting the primary content. A primary content provider submits a request that can include an authorization token for the primary content provider, a publisher token including a proxy identifier for the user, application, or client device, and other relevant information. The supplemental content provider can verify the information and select targeted content based on the information. The supplemental content can then be provided to the primary content provider for incorporation with the primary content. The primary content provider can adjust the layout or selection before sending to the client device for display.
