  • Patent number: 12711026
    Abstract: Systems and methods that make use of cluster-level redundancy within a distributed storage management system to address various node-level error scenarios are provided. According to one embodiment, an instance of a key-value (KV) store of a first node of a plurality of nodes of a cluster of a distributed storage system manages storage of data blocks as values and corresponding block identifiers (IDs) as keys. A list of missing block IDs that are in use for one or more volumes associated with the first node but that are missing from the instance of the KV store are identified by performing a data integrity check on the instance of the KV store. After identifying the list of missing block IDs, instead of treating the first node as failed, restoring the missing block IDs by writing redundant data blocks retrieved from other nodes within the cluster to the first node.

  • Publication number: 20260221986
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a compressed dataset. A processor set trains a first machine learning model using a dataset. The first machine learning model is trained to generate probabilities of predictions based on a number of features extracted from columns in the dataset. The processor set ranks the number of features based on a feature attribution analysis for the number of features. The feature attribution analysis determines contribution of each feature from the number of features to predictions made by the first machine learning model. The processor set expands a feature vector using a number of top ranked features from the number of features for generating the compressed dataset. The compressed dataset comprises a number of data entries from the dataset that is associated with the number of top ranked features from the number of features.

  • Publication number: 20260193835
    Abstract: A water stripping method, a water stripping device, and a water stripping system of a leather fiber are provided, relating to the technical field of leather recycling. Since a leather fiber in a waste leather is easier to be physically opened and impact-stripped than a coating layer, the waste leather with the coating layer can be initially treated by stripping, such that the leather fiber is effectively stripped from the coating layer. This process avoids the problem that the leather fiber and the coating layer cannot be separated due to adhesion, and even if the leather fiber and the coating layer are separated, broken leather fibers may still be doped with some coating layer fragments. Moreover, the process effectively improves an initial treatment effect of the waste leather and a leather fiber recovery rate, thereby improving a recycling rate of the waste leather with the coating layer.
