Abstract: A current set of context features for a database query that is associated with a string is identified. The database query includes a sequence of tokens of a database syntax, and the current set of context features includes words from the string and tokens from the database query. An inference record is selected from an inference store based on a comparison of the current set of context features to context features of inference records in the inference store. The database query is modified using a resolution of the inference record to obtain an inferred database query. The resolution includes one or more tokens of the database syntax. A search of a database is invoked using a query based on the inferred database query to obtain search results.

Abstract: Providing a search interface for a database includes receiving string data entered via a user interface. A sequence of tokens representative of the string data is determined. Determining the sequence of tokens includes applying natural language processing to the string data. A first database query is generated in accordance with the sequence of tokens. Respective text representations for tokens in the sequence of tokens are presented via the user interface. Feedback data related to the sequence of tokens is received via the user interface. A token of the sequence of tokens is modified based on the feedback data to obtain a modified sequence of tokens. A second database query is generated based on the modified sequence of tokens. Results data are obtained from the database responsive to execution of the second database query by the database. Data based on the results data are output for presentation in the user interface.

Abstract: Automatic database analysis includes identifying a current context for accessing data from a low-latency database and generating an exploration query based on the current context, which includes identifying a column from the low-latency database as a column of utility in response to determining that a probabilistic utility for the column satisfies a defined utility criterion. The current context includes a requested result set satisfying a requested search criterion, and the probabilistic utility is based on the current context. The analysis includes generating an exploration result set based on the exploration query, generating insights based on the exploration result set, ranking the insights, and outputting at least one insight based on the ranking.

Abstract: Systems and methods for natural language question answering are described. For example, methods may include determining a set of candidate database queries, including respective sequences of tokens of a database syntax, based on a string; determining a first score for a first candidate database query from the set of candidate database queries, wherein the first score is based on a match between one or more words of the string and a token of the respective sequence of tokens of the first candidate database query; determining a second score for the first candidate database query, wherein the second score is based on natural language syntax data determined for words of the string; selecting, based on the first score and the second score, the first candidate database query from the set of candidate database queries; and invoking a search of the database using the first candidate database query to obtain search results.

Abstract: A method and system may be implemented for automatically analyzing data in a database. The method and system may receive a current context of the database. The method and system may identify one or more columns of utility based on the current context and generate a current context based on the one or more columns of utility. The method and system may generate one or more exploration queries. The method and system may explore the one or more exploration queries to generate an exploration result set. The method and system may generate one or more insights. The one or more insights may be based on the current context, the exploration result set, or both. The method and system may rank the insights. The method and system may display, transmit, or store the one or more insights based on the rank.

Abstract: Systems and methods for multilingual searching allow search terms to be entered in a first language and searched in another language. A selection of a language may be associated with a search term or phrase in a search query, allowing terms from different languages to be searched at the same time.
