Abstract: Methods and arrangements for generating a learning graph. A contemplated method includes: utilizing at least one processor to execute instructions to perform the steps of: receiving a proficiency input relating to a student; receiving a target knowledge node, wherein the target knowledge node represents at least one skill the student does not currently possess; determining at least one skill requirement of the at least one skill; identifying at least one path between the proficiency input and the target knowledge node based upon the at least one determined skill requirement; calculating a gap between the proficiency input and the target knowledge node at the at least one identified path; and recommending at least one learning content module based upon the calculated gap.

Abstract: Methods and arrangements for facilitating a display of search results. A search query is received from a user having a predetermined access level. A search is executed based on the search query and, based on the executed search, initial search results are produced. Sensitive information is redacted from the initial search results, based on the predetermined access level. The redacted search results are filtered and re-ordered to forestall an inference of the redacted sensitive information. The filtered and re-ordered search results are displayed to a user. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.

Abstract: Methods and arrangements for identifying burden comprehension in multimedia content. A contemplated method includes: accepting multimedia input; detecting components of the multimedia input; determining a comprehension burden score of each of the detected components; and thereupon calculating a total comprehension burden score for the multimedia input. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.

Abstract: Methods and arrangements for discovering entity types for a set of records. A set of records is input, with each record comprising attributes with associated attribute values. The records are grouped into candidate entity types in view of at least one of: the attribute values of the records, at least one domain ontology and at least one dimension hierarchy. An interestingness measure of each candidate entity type is calculated, via estimating interestingness based on at least one factor selected from the group consisting of: a correlation between attribute values of records, a number of attributes, a log of queries issued to a server, and an average group size for candidate entity types. At least one candidate entity type is validated based on the calculated interestingness measures. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.

Abstract: Methods and arrangements for accommodating a query, directing the query to datasets, creating partitions and partitioning the datasets, and returning a response to the query, the response being structured in accordance with the created partitions.

Abstract: A clustering-based approach to data standardization is provided. Certain embodiments take as input a plurality of addresses, identify one or more features of the addresses, cluster the addresses based on the one or more features, utilize the cluster(s) to provide a data-based context useful in identifying one or more synonyms for elements contained in the address(es), and standardize the address(es) to an acceptable format, with one or more synonyms and/or other elements being added to or taken away from the input address(es) as part of the standardization process.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, computer program product and a data processing system for managing electronic messages is disclosed. The contents of an electronic messages are segmented based on the recipients receiving the message and access control authorizing access to the segmented contents is provided to the segmented contents and transmitted to a list of recipients.

Abstract: In the context of cloud computing, effective methods and arrangements for storing and tracking provenance. In accordance with at least one embodiment, a distributed file system is advantageously employed to store large amounts of provenance data. File creation involves the creation both of output files and reduce logs.

Abstract: Techniques for identifying one or more inconsistencies between an unstructured document and a back-end fact-base are provided. The techniques include automatically parsing a query document and comparing the document with a back-end fact-base comprising facts relevant to the document, identifying one or more inconsistencies between information mentioned in the document and the facts stored in the back-end fact-base, and providing a response to the query document, wherein the response additionally includes the one or more identified inconsistencies.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic product bundling are described herein. For example, embodiments dynamically generate product bundle for customer within a particular segment in view of that customer's interest in a particular product. Embodiments determine customer affinity, customer commonality, and product complementarity and use this information to dynamically generate and optimize product bundles for customers interested in one or more products.

Abstract: A user can highlight text and provide accompanying annotations. Highlighted text, accompanying annotations, and time-stamp information are stored in a user profile that is maintained locally with a web browser, at the client side. A retrieved web page is presented to a user with annotations of some form, based upon the user profile. The retrieved web page may typically be annotated through marked or highlighted portions of text, so that the user can readily locate this information in the web page, and assess the relevance of the retrieved page.

Abstract: In the context of data administration in enterprises, an effective manner of providing a central data warehouse, particularly via employing a tool that helps by analyzing existing data and reports from different business units. In accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, such a tool analyzes the data model of an enterprise and proposes alternatives for building a new data warehouse. The tool, in accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, models the problem of identifying fact/dimension attributes of a warehouse model as a graph cut on a Dependency Analysis Graph (DAG). The DAG is built using existing data models and the report generation scripts. The tool also uses the DAG for generation of ETL (Extract, Transform Load) scripts that can be used to populate the newly proposed data warehouse from data present in the existing schemas.

Abstract: Systems and associated methods for address standardization and applications related thereto are described. Embodiments exploit a common context in a taxonomy and a given address to detect and correct deviations in the address. Embodiments establish a possible path from a root of the taxonomy to a leaf in the taxonomy that can possibly generate a given address. Given a new address, embodiments use complete addresses, and/or segments or elements thereof, to compute the representations of the elements and find a closest matching leaf in the taxonomy. Embodiments then traverse the path to a root node to detect the agreement and disagreement between the path and the address entry. Taxonomical structured is thus used to detect, segregate and standardize the expected fields.

Abstract: Triggers are dynamically created and destroyed on an application database. Rules are represented in active databases as ECA (event-condition-action) items, in which an action formulates a reaction to an event and is executed after the rule is triggered when the condition is evaluated to true. The event is defined as an instantaneous and atomic (that is, the event either happens completely, or not at all) point of occurrence within an application. Events can be classified as either database, temporal, or user-defined events, and their type can be either primitive or composite.

Abstract: A method of associating a given text document with relevant structured data is disclosed. The method receives as inputs a text document, and structured data in the form of a relational database. The method then identifies terms in the text document, and searches and queries the structured data using the terms to identify fragments of the structured data that are relevant to the document. Finally, the text document and the identified fragments of structured data are output to a user.
