Abstract: A user uploads date sets through a client to a database. The data sets are provisioned in the database for in-database searching. The data sets are evaluated and classifications for the columns of the tables that include the data set are detected. Columns content may be classified into different analysis types, aggregation types, formats, categories, hierarchies, etc. Metadata is generated based on the evaluation of the data sets. A schema is used to store the metadata that describes the detected classification of the columns. The schema is stored in the database and is used when a search in the database is performed.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to transcription of spoken words, and more particularly to a system and method for transcription of spoken words using multilingual mismatched words. The process comprises collection of multi-scripted noisy transcriptions of the spoken word obtained from workers of the multilingual mismatched crowd unfamiliar with the spoken language. The collected words are mapped to a phoneme sequence in the source language using script specific graphemes to phoneme model. Further, it builds a multi-scripted transcription script specific, worker specific and a global insertion-deletion-substitution (IDS) channel. Furthermore, the disclosure also determines reputation of workers to allocate the transcription task. Determination of reputation is based on word belief.

Abstract: In a decoupled messaging system, a producer device sends produced messages to a message fabric. The message fabric either stores the received message in designated queues, from which consumer devices may retrieve the messages, or broadcasts the messages to consumer devices that subscribe to topics assigned to the messages. A message consumption orchestrator service gathers capabilities information for the message producer, the message fabric, and the message consumer, and configures resources allocated for the message consumer to more fully optimize message throughput. Further, the message consumption orchestrator identifies patterns in changes of the rate of produced messages, i.e., through analysis of historical data and/or received information. The message consumption orchestrator configures resources for the message consumer to account for predicted need based on the identified patterns.
