  • Patent number: 11734649
    Abstract: Systems, methods and/or computer program products for automating evaluations of code deliveries for software projects. Automated evaluations are generated by selecting software projects and dividing a project into a plurality of code blocks by analyzing the code, build file and build log. Attributes of code blocks are extracted and correlations between code blocks are calculated. Dynamic distance between code blocks is calculated by the correlation and code delivery history, to create a Dynamic General Distance Map and Dynamic User Distance Map for the code blocks. Code delivery distance indicating the code delivery behavior is generated by the Dynamic User Distance Map while the delivery assessment criteria is generated to evaluate code delivery and assess levels of risk associated with delivery of the code. High-level risk indicates that a code delivery may not follow best practices and users are alerted to pay more attention to the code delivery during review.

  • Publication number: 20230237278
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for compressing data, and more particularly, to large-scale text data encoding and compression using absolute overfitting on pre-trained language models. Large-scale data is parsed into sentences. A unique token is generated for each sentence to form a token list. A generative (or compression) model is trained from the tokens in the token list to produce the corresponding sentence of each token through absolute overfitting of a pre-trained language model. The compressed text data is stored as the token list and generative model, resulting in a storage space savings.

  • Patent number: 11675978
    Abstract: An approach is provided for improving a named entity recognition. Using a multi-label classification in a neural network, a sub-entity is identified in an original sentence. First and second labels are determined indicating first and second candidate types of the sub-entity. First and second replacement sentences are generated. The first replacement sentence replaces the sub-entity in the original sentence with a first sub-entity of the first candidate type. The second replacement sentence replaces the sub-entity in the original sentence with a second sub-entity of the second candidate type. First and second confidence scores for the first and second replacement sentences are determined. Based on the first confidence score exceeding the second confidence score by more than a threshold amount, the neural network is retrained by selecting the first instead of the second candidate type as the sub-entity type.
