  • High-speed statistical processing in a database
    Patent number: 9208203
    Abstract: Numerically intensive statistical processing of data is implemented as an incremental gradient method within the engine of a database system. Small user-defined functions in the database system calculate an approximate gradient from one term of a linearly separable defined cost resolvable from a single tuple of the database. In this way the optimized data access of the database may be exploited for rapid statistical processing.
