  • Patent number: 12265587
    Abstract: Connections among two different entities are identified by processing a collection of documents to identify one or more documents that contain co-occurring mentions of each of the two different entities. This relationship may be graphically displayed in a user interface with an icon or the like for each of the two entities, along with a graphical link interconnecting the entities. The graphical link can be an active element of the user interface that responds to user interactions by providing access to evidence within the collection of documents that substantiates the connection between the two entities. In one aspect, a search input form field in a user interface may be used to explicitly request documents that substantiate a relationship between two entities. In another aspect, a user may ground entity mentions by explicitly selecting documents that mention an entity of interest.

  • Patent number: 12261635
    Abstract: Radio frequency front-end systems with filter reuse. In certain embodiments, a front-end system includes a filter, a low noise amplifier (LNA), and a switch interposed between the filter and an input to the LNA. In a first state of the switch, the filter serves to filter a radio frequency signal that is amplified by the LNA. The front-end system further includes a power amplifier that is coupled to the switch. Additionally, in a second state of the switch, the filter serves to filter an amplified radio frequency transmit signal provided by the power amplifier. Accordingly, a filter along a receive path of the front-end system is reused for transmit.

  • Publication number: 20250077578
    Abstract: A server computing device including one or more server memory devices storing a relational database. The server computing device further includes one or more server processing devices configured to receive an ephemeral graph database request. The ephemeral graph database request indicates a selection of data stored in the relational database. The processing devices generate an ephemeral graph database that encodes the selected data in a graph structure and store the ephemeral graph database in binary large object (BLOB) storage at the one or more memory devices. The processing devices receive instructions to apply a graph analytics algorithm at the ephemeral graph database. The processing devices read the ephemeral graph database from the BLOB storage and apply the graph analytics algorithm to the ephemeral graph database to generate a graph analytics result. The processing devices output the graph analytics result and delete the ephemeral graph database from the BLOB storage.
