  • Publication number: 20230267377
    Abstract: Development of machine learning models and applications tends to be iterative and complex, made even harder because most of the necessary tools are not built for the entire machine learning lifecycle. Introduced here is a data platform that is able to accelerate time-to-value by enabling users to utilize applied machine learning prototypes (“AMPs”) made by others. These AMPs may be extendable, by the data platform, to new datasets, allowing machine learning to be developed and deployed more rapidly.

  • Patent number: 10182025
    Abstract: A search-based email client may incorporate a number of useful features. A search function can default to a search of all email contexts, thereby eliminating user cogitation over which context an email message may be stored in. Furthermore, the search function can automatically search for related personal content and/or related information on the internet or other computer network, and present this useful information to the user in addition to the returned emails. The search function can be integrated into a user interface to allow for one-click searches on any likely search field. The search function can search the body of email messages by default, thereby widening the scope of default searches and eliminating potentially missed information and user need to proactively widen their search. A search function can search attachments, which also provides a wider search scope.

  • Patent number: 9716624
    Abstract: Systems and methods for centralized configuration of a distributed computing cluster are disclosed. One embodiment of the disclosed technology provides a user environment that facilitates a selection of a service to be run on hosts in the distributed computing cluster and configuration of the service or hosts in the distributed computer cluster. The disclosed technology can further configure each of the hosts in the distributed computing cluster to run the service based on a set of configuration settings.

  • Patent number: 7849063
    Abstract: Systems and methods for query processing and indexing of documents in connection with a content store in a computing system are provided. In various embodiments, an indexing model is provided that is optimized for fast, efficient and scalable retrieval of documents satisfying a query, including the mixed use of forward and inverted indexing representations, including algorithms for achieving a balance between the two representations. When processing queries, fast and efficient generation of reverse chronologically ordered posting lists is enabled for efficient execution of logical operators on query result sets. A term expand index is also provided wherein the overall terms included in the term expand index are decomposed into a plurality of lexicon files, which are combined when convenient for fast, scalable efficiency when performing queries of the content in the content store.

  • Patent number: 7720845
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically updating queries on a data store, such as a personal content database (PCDB), are provided. A query engine runs queries against two indexes: a first index that represents a previous state of documents and a second index that represents a current state of documents. The query is run twice and a delta analysis is performed, i.e., a determination is made as to which documents have changed in some respect from the previous state to the current state, and a view or a count associated with at least one query changes in accordance with the delta analysis. Transactions may be batched dynamically by a transaction manager until an optimal number of documents have changed or a certain amount of time has passed prior to re-running the query and performing the delta analysis.
