Abstract: Various embodiments are provided for performing weighted partial matching under homomorphic encryption in a computing environment. Selected data may be encoded and encrypted into an encrypted query for comparison using private set intersection (PSI) under homomorphic encryption (HE). An encrypted score may be determined according to data blocks of the selected data and a set of weights for each of the data blocks of the selected data to identify matches between the data and the encrypted query. The encrypted score may be decrypted and decoded to identify matches between the encrypted query with the selected data.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for a sound system. Speech recognition is performed on input audio data comprising speech input to a sound system. Speech recognition is additionally performed on at least one instance of output audio data comprising speech reproduced by one or more audio speakers of the sound system. A difference between a result of speech recognition performed on the input audio data and a result of speech recognition performed on an instance of corresponding output audio data is determined. The quality of the reproduced speech is determined as unsatisfactory when the difference is greater than or equal to a threshold. A corrective action may be performed, to improve the quality of the speech reproduced by the sound system, if it is determined that the speech quality of the reproduced sound is unsatisfactory.

Abstract: An approach is provided in which the approach captures usage data corresponding to multiple users accessing a codebase that includes multiple code lines. The approach uses the captured usage data to compute a code line usage weighting for at least one of the code lines. The approach also computes a code line test coverage score for at least one code line based on at least one current software test program that tests the codebase. The approach compares the code line usage weighting against the code line test coverage score and flags the code line based on the comparison.
