Patent number: 11763240Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program executable by a device. The program identifies a set of visualizations associated with the user. The program further determines, for each visualization in the set of visualizations, a score associated with changes in the visualization. The program also determines a subset of the set of visualizations based on the set of scores. The program further provides to the user notifications associated with the subset of the set of visualizations.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTDInventors: Jiandong Shi, Katherine Wright, Flavia Moser, Ahmet Yoldemir

Patent number: 11567634Abstract: In some example embodiments, an indication of a selected data point of a current visualization can be received. A context of the selected data point can be determined based on a dimension of the data point, and explanation candidates can be generated based on the context of the selected data point. Each exploration candidate can have a different dimension context that is within the context of the selected data point and a corresponding value for the dimension context. For each one of the explanation candidates, a corresponding score can be generated based on a difference between the value for the explanation candidate and an average value of all the values of the explanation candidates. The explanation candidates can be ranked based on the scores. At least one of the explanation candidates can be selected based on the ranking, and selectable explanation(s) for the selected explanation candidate(s) can be displayed.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2021Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: Business Objects Software Ltd.Inventors: Flavia Moser, Scott Cameron, Julian Gosper

Patent number: 10896204Abstract: A raw dataset including measures and dimensions is processed, by a preprocessing module, using an algorithm that produces a preprocessed dataset such that at least one type of statistical analysis of the preprocessed dataset yields equal results to the same type of statistical analysis of the raw dataset. The preprocessed dataset is then analyzed by a statistical analysis module to identify subsets of the preprocessed dataset that include a non-random structure or pattern. The analysis of the preprocessed dataset includes the at least one type of statistical analysis that produces the same results for both the preprocessed and raw datasets. The identified subsets are then ranked by a statistical ranker based on the analysis of the preprocessed dataset and a subset is selected for visualization based on the rankings. A visualization module then generates a visualization of the selected identified subset that highlights a non-random structure of the selected subset.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2019Date of Patent: January 19, 2021Assignee: Business Objects Software Ltd.Inventors: Flavia Moser, Alexander Kennedy MacAulay, Julian Gosper

Patent number: 10693997Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to network based machine learning generated simulations. In one embodiment, the present disclosure includes a computer implemented method comprising sending first code comprising a programmable calculator from a server system to a client system across a network. A data request is sent to a database, the data request configured to retrieve data from the database comprising a plurality of fields and a target field. The retrieved data is processed using a machine learning algorithm to produce a weight for each field of the plurality of fields and a scoring data structure. The fields and the scoring data structure are sent to the client system across the network. A user selects values for the plurality of fields and the programmable calculator is configured based on the scoring data structure to generate a simulated value for the target field based on the user selected values.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Katherine Wright, Sepideh Hashtroodi, Teresa Hsin Yi Su, Flavia Moser, Sajjad Gholami, Zeyu Ni, Geoffrey Neil Peters

Patent number: 10380771Abstract: Some embodiments provide a program that receives from a client device a dimension value for a first dimension in a plurality of dimensions of a data model and a measure in a set of measures of the data model. The program further determines a cardinality of dimension values for each dimension in the plurality of dimensions. The program also selects a subset of dimensions in the plurality of dimensions based on the cardinalities of dimension values for the plurality of dimensions. The program further sends the subset of dimensions in the plurality of dimensions to the client device. The program also receives from the client device a request for a chart visualization comprising data values associated with the measure and categorized according to a second dimension in the subset of dimensions. In response to the request, the program further sends the chart visualization to the client device.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2017Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Guanjie Zhao, Shariq Aziz, Flavia Moser, Steve Norton, Saeed Jahankhani

Patent number: 9830370Abstract: A dataset and some user selected columns of the dataset are received by a statistical analysis module for analysis. The statistical analysis module generates a score for each unselected column of the dataset based on statistical analysis of the unselected columns and all or a subset of the selected columns. A ranking of the unselected columns is presented to the user for selection of one additional column of the dataset, after which the remaining unselected columns are re-ranked according to their associated scores and once again displayed to the user. The user may continue selecting from among the ranked columns until a threshold number of columns has been selected, at which point the user may deselect a selected column in order to continue selecting additional columns. A visualization suggestion application program interface then matches the selected columns with compatible visualization configurations and presents some of these visualizations to the user.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2014Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Assignee: Business Objects Software Ltd.Inventors: Johnson Wong, Flavia Moser, Viren Kumar
