  • Publication number: 20240378184
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention discloses an index recommendation method and apparatus based on data features. The method includes following steps: acquiring multiple dimensions from query historical data of a user, and constructing an aggregation group according to the dimensions; creating initial indexes according to the aggregation group, which are divided into multiple levels according to dimension combinations; pre-screening the initial indexes of each level based on a sampling algorithm to obtain a candidate index set; and searching an index subset with the minimum cost value from the candidate index set through a genetic algorithm or a greedy algorithm to serve as a recommended index. The present invention can significantly improve the efficiency of pre-computation and save the storage and computation cost.

  • Patent number: 11251600
    Abstract: Protection circuitry configured to protect an electrical load from both overvoltage and overcurrent and includes a recovery period timer configured to set a recovery time. The recovery time allows a system, including a power supply, voltage regulator, protection circuitry and electrical load to dissipate heat and reset components. The protection circuitry is configured to monitor downstream performance of the electrical load and disconnect upstream power based on a downstream failure or other performance characteristics. The protection circuitry may include a downstream overvoltage sensing circuit that controls a current source. The current source injects current into an overcurrent protection loop in the protection circuitry that includes the configurable recovery period timer. In this manner both an overvoltage and an overcurrent event may take advantage of the configurable recovery period timer without the need for a separate time delay circuit.
