  • Patent number: 11640379
    Abstract: An embodiment includes identifying metadata attached to a first node of a graph, where the metadata satisfies an ontological condition. The embodiment also includes transforming the graph such that the transforming results in the graph having a new graph structure, where the transforming of the graph comprises removing the metadata from the first node and adding a second node representative of the metadata removed from the first node to the graph such that the second node is connected to the first node by a first edge.

  • Patent number: 11537650
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a description of a target skill set using domain specific language, a computer program product, and a system. Embodiments may comprise, on a processor, ingesting a data set related to the target skill from a data store, semantically analyzing the data set to generate a skill ontology, generating a hyperplane to separate one or more priority skills from among the plurality of related skills, generating a description for the target skill from the one or more priority skills, and presenting the generated description to a user. The skill ontology may include relationships between the target skill and a plurality of related skills.

  • Patent number: 11501241
    Abstract: A method of analyzing one or more asset repositories to determine a developer's competency and ability to collaborate in a team environment. The method includes obtaining metadata artifacts as documents from one or more asset repositories. The documents are represented using a tree structure that has nodes to form a knowledge graph that is suitable for input vectorization. Each node is configured in the tree structure to represent a content region within the one or more documents, with a root node representing the entire document and each node representing an aggregation of all its children nodes. One or more computing devices are used to receive an input vector that includes a set of descriptive statistics about data in asset repositories and a vectorized form of one or more concepts. The developer's competency and ability to collaborate in a team environment is automatically estimated using output values of a trained neural network.

  • Publication number: 20220309441
    Abstract: By executing a natural language processing model on a set of natural language text describing a first engagement, a set of characteristics of the first engagement is generated. By executing the natural language processing model on a set of natural language text describing a future engagement, a set of characteristics of the future engagement is generated. The first engagement is determined to be above a threshold similarity with the future engagement. Using the skillset used in performing the first engagement, a required skillset of the future engagement is forecasted. By executing the natural language processing model on a set of natural language text describing a current skillset, a set of characteristics of the current skillset is generated. Using the required skillset of the future engagement and the set of characteristics of the current skillset, a learning path is generated.

  • Patent number: 11452940
    Abstract: By analyzing video, audio, and statistical data of a real-world activity, a real-world scenario is identified that is within a threshold similarity of the analyzed video, audio, and statistical data of the real-world activity. The real-world scenario is applied to a game application that uses the real-world activity as a data source, the applying comprising adjusting a portion of a physics engine, the physics engine simulating a physical phenomenon portrayed in the game application.

  • Publication number: 20220269698
    Abstract: From an unstructured content using an ontology, a forward materialization graph is generated. The forward materialization graph is converted to a set of vector representations comprising multidimensional numbers representing elements of the forward materialization graph. A set of inference paths is computed for the set of vector representations. An inference path in the set of inference paths connecting a first vector representation with a second vector representation. Based on a set of features, the set of vector representations is formed into clusters, a feature in the set of features comprising a relevance probability, the relevance probability corresponding to a relevance of a portion of the unstructured content according to a relevance metric. A structured representation of the unstructured content is placed at an edge location of a content delivery network determined using the set of clusters.

  • Publication number: 20220272136
    Abstract: A set of nodes of a content delivery network are weighted according to an effect of a node on a network. A data points parameter specifying a number of nodes constituting a cluster is set according to a policy. A subset of the weighted nodes is clustered according to the data points parameter. A cluster comprises nodes having a content access history similarity greater than a threshold similarity. A structured representation of a natural language document is positioned at a node within the cluster, the positioning determined by evaluating a similarity between the structured representation and a content access history of the node.
