Abstract: Systems and methods for performing open-loop quantum error mitigation using quantum measurement emulations are provided. The open-loop quantum error mitigation methods do not require the performance of state readouts or state tomography, reducing hardware requirements and increasing overall computation speed. To perform a quantum measurement emulation, an error mitigation apparatus is configured to stochastically apply a quantum gate to a qubit or set of qubits during a quantum computational process. The stochastic application of the quantum gate projects the quantum state of the affected qubits onto an axis, reducing a trace distance between the quantum state and a desired quantum state.

Abstract: Qubit circuits having components formed deep in a substrate are described. The qubit circuits can be manufactured using existing integrated-circuit technologies. By forming components such as superconducting current loops, inductive, and/or capacitive components deep in the substrate, the footprint of the qubit circuit integrated within the substrate can be reduced. Additionally, coupling efficiency to and from the qubit can be improved and losses in the qubit circuit may be reduced.

Abstract: The application discloses a new system for performing queries and entity resolution on two or more data sources without having to ETL all the documents, entities, and descriptions of entities. Also disclosed, is a method to perform advanced entity resolution without divulging personally sensitive information to end-users and intermediate systems.

Abstract: Date-warehouse systems are populated using an enhanced Extraction-Load-Transform (ETL) process and system by employing three ideas: Out-of-order-fill ETL, relative-ordering index (ROI), and dependent queries. Out-of-order-fill ETL allows a data warehouse to accept the loading of data files in any order, and does not require the loading of any previous backup data files in order to provide some functionality to end users under the view that some functionality or data access is better than none at all. Dependent queries are processes that use defined data structures for use in constructing, extracting, and validating each record to be written in said data-warehouse system in order to ensure that referential integrity is maintained and that no orphaned data is pushed into the data warehouse. Finally, ROI is a process wherein a value is determined, based on the constraints of the source data, which indicates the relative newness of the data.

Abstract: Query inefficiencies are improved and entity-interrelational blindness is overcome by employing two ideas: Consolidation Strings and Inter-Node Consolidation. These ideas can be typically employed in law-enforcement records systems (such as COPLINK systems), but is certainly not limited to such an application. Consolidation Strings represent key pieces of information that are in a text/character format, and may be encrypted/hashed. A system's hierarchy of consolidation rules automatically determine if two different rows in a database actually refer to the same real-world object. These rules are NOT statistical or probabilistic in nature, thus enhancing the confidence and reliability in the results. Three general classifications of Consolidation Strings are encompassed: Those based on positive identifiers, those based on demographic information, and those based on associative information that spans multiple-entity types.

Abstract: A hopper for transferring granular materials has a unique composite shape which enables accommodation of the safety guard of an auger and access about a back of the hopper. A wedge-shaped base permits pivoting of the hopper to adjust to the angle of the auger used to remove the material, minimizing the angle of the auger and maximizing extraction of material from the hopper.

Abstract: A device and method for storing data is disclosed. A user record is divided up into a plurality of input packets (block 202). The plurality of input packets is encoded into a plurality of output packets (block 204). The output packets are distributed to one or more storage devices (block 206). The user record is reconstructed by retrieving the plurality of output packets from the storage devices (block 1002) and deconstructing output packets into one or more input packets (block 1004). The input packets are evaluated to determine which additional output packets are required to complete the user record (block 1006). The process of retrieving the output packets and deconstructing the output packets into one or more input packets is repeated until the user record is complete (block 1008).

Abstract: A system for data mining and warehousing is provided. The system includes a client computer running a web browser. In conjunction with the web browser is an applet that helps to sort, decompress, compress, encrypt and unencrypt data. A remote server is coupled to the client computer and sends the web browser search forms after the web browser requests them and receives a search query from the web browser. A connect/detect database is coupled to the remote server that receives the search query at a database view. Data is then retrieved from a database table. The database tables contain data from one or more legacy databases. The data in the legacy databases are copied to the database tables using a migration engine coupled to a migration database. The database can be search to retrieve data related to a search term or retrieve the data related to a search term and additional data associated with the data related to the search term.
