Publication number: 20200125540Abstract: Techniques describes herein updating pipeline flows in within data systems to maintain data integrity and consistency without manual curation. In certain embodiments, data integration system may detect and/or receive indications of a schema change within a source system of the data integration system. One or more data objects affected by the schema change may be identified, and a set of pipeline rules may be invoked for each of the affected schema changes. The pipeline rules may define a single transformation or a multi-step transformation process by which the data in the source system is provided to one or more target systems. After applying the pipeline rules to the updated source schema, the data received from the source system may be processed using the updated pipeline rules, transformed, and transmitted to the target system(s) to maintain the data integrity of the system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2019Publication date: April 23, 2020Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Sachin Sadashiv Thatte, Arun Patnaik, David Allan, Frank Joseph Klein, Sathish Paul Leo, Vikas Varma

Publication number: 20190272678Abstract: Example implementations may relate to methods and systems for detecting an event in a physical region within a physical space. Accordingly, a computing system may receive from a subscriber device an indication of a virtual region within a virtual representation of the physical space such that the virtual region corresponds to the physical region. The system may also receive from the subscriber a trigger condition associated with the virtual region, where the trigger condition corresponds to a particular physical change in the physical region. The system may also receive sensor data from sensors in the physical space and a portion of the sensor data may be associated with the physical region. Based on the sensor data, the system may detect an event in the physical region that satisfies the trigger condition and may responsively provide to the subscriber a notification that indicates that the trigger condition has been satisfied.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2019Publication date: September 5, 2019Inventors: Arshan Poursohi, Daniel Aden, Matthew Amacker, Charles Robert Barker, Paul Vincent Byrne, Paul Du Bois, Greg Joseph Klein, Steve Scott Tompkins

Patent number: 10215858Abstract: Examples relating to the detection of rigid shaped objects are described herein. An example method may involve a computing system determining a first point cloud representation of an environment at a first time using a depth sensor positioned within the environment. The computing system may also determine a second point cloud representation of the environment at a second time using the depth sensor. This way, the computing system may detect a change in position of a rigid shape between a first position in the first point cloud representation and a second position in the second point cloud representation. Based on the detected change in position of the rigid shape, the computing system may determine that the rigid shape is representative of an object in the environment and store information corresponding to the object.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2016Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Greg Joseph Klein, Arshan Poursohi, Sumit Jain, Daniel Aden

Patent number: 10193849Abstract: A system identifies unconnected content items of high quality and provides the unconnected content items for display to a user. The method comprises receiving several content items posted on pages of a social networking system. The system then determines a subset of those content items (e.g., high quality content items). A topic is then extracted from each of the subset of content items. The topic is mapped to one or more related pages of the social networking system that represent an expanded set of pages associated with the content item. For each of the related pages, a user is identified who is connected to the related page. Finally, the content item (e.g., a high quality content item) is provided to the user for display in the user's newsfeed.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2017Date of Patent: January 29, 2019Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Gregory Joseph Klein, Bradley Ray Green, Jun Li, Jonathan Daniel Sorg

Publication number: 20180348023Abstract: Implementations disclosed herein may relate to sensor calibration based on environmental factors. An example method may involve a computing system receiving an indication of a current environment state of an area from environment state sensors. While the environment sensors indicate that the area is in a particular environment state, the system may receive data corresponding to an aspect of the area from a first sensor as well as data from additional sensors. Using the received data, the system may compare the data from the first sensor with a compilation of the data from the additional sensors to determine an accuracy metric that represents an accuracy of the first sensor when the first sensor operates in the area during the particular environment state. The system may repeat the process to determine accuracy metrics to calibrate sensors in the area depending on the environment state of the area.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2015Publication date: December 6, 2018Inventors: Greg Joseph Klein, Daniel Aden, Arshan Poursohi

Patent number: 10120057Abstract: Example systems and methods are disclosed for determining the direction of an actor based on sensors within an environment. The method may include receiving point cloud data representative of the actor within the environment. The method may also include generating data segments of the point cloud data corresponding to respective height levels of the actor. The method may further include determining an area value for each data segment. Also, the method may include determining a transition between a first data segment and an adjacent second data segment based on a difference between the corresponding area values. Further, the method may include determining that the first data segment is representative of a head of the actor while the second data segment is representative of a body of the actor. The method may also include providing information indicating a direction of the actor based on the second data segment.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2015Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Paul Vincent Byrne, Greg Joseph Klein

Patent number: 10109059Abstract: Example methods and systems for background subtraction re-initialization are disclosed. In an example method, computing system may use a set of active sensors to determine a background representation of a space that can be divided into subspaces with each subspace depicted by a quantity of data points that depends on the active sensors. The system may determine locations of objects moving the space using the active sensors and the background representation. In some instances, the system may receive an indication of a change in the active sensors and responsively determine new quantities of data points that depict each subspace after the change. The system may further adjust the background representation of the space by subtracting data points corresponding to the determined locations of the objects moving in the space from the new quantities of data points that depict each subspace of the space after the change in the active sensors.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2016Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Greg Joseph Klein, Charles Robert Barker, Jr.
