  • EFFICIENT SIMILARITY DETECTION
    Publication number: 20240020270
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to a method for uploading a file to a server. The server receives a request from a user to upload a file thereto. An upload client extracts file information from the file. The server generates a file signature for the file. The server accesses one or more existing file signatures for each of one or more existing files on the server. The server determines whether any of the one or more existing file signatures are similar to the file signature. Responsive to determining that there is an existing file signature that is similar to the file signature, the server accesses a first hash signature for the existing file. The upload client generates a second hash signature for the file. Responsive to determining that the first hash signature does not equal the second hash signature, the upload client uploads the file to the server.

  • Efficient similarity detection
    Patent number: 11868311
    Abstract: A method for uploading a file to a server from multiple devices is disclosed. The server receives a request from a user to upload a file thereto. An upload client extracts file information from the file. The server generates a file signature for the file. The server accesses one or more existing file signatures for each of one or more existing files on the server. The server determines whether any of the one or more existing file signatures are similar to the file signature. Responsive to determining that there is an existing file signature that is similar to the file signature, the server accesses a first hash signature for the existing file. The upload client generates a second hash signature for the file. Responsive to determining that the first hash signature does not equal the second hash signature, the upload client uploads the file to the server.
