Abstract: Techniques for performing a fuzzy match of data from multiple sources are provided. In one technique, an email address of a sender of an email message is extracted from the email message. The email address is used to retrieve, from a first data source, first entity data about one or more entities, such as users. The first entity data is used to retrieve, from a second data source, second entity data about one or more entities. First data that pertains to the sender and that originates from the first data source is combined with second data that pertains to the sender and that originates from the second data source to generate sender data. The sender data is then presented via an email client that displays the email message.

Abstract: A nonlinear terahertz (THz) spectroscopy technique uses a sample illuminated by two THz pulses separately. The illumination generates two signals BA and BB, corresponding to the first and second THz pulse, respectively, after interaction with the sample. The interaction includes excitation of at least one ESR transition in the sample. The sample is also illuminated by the two THz pulses together, with an inter-pulse delay ?, generating a third signal BAB. A nonlinear signal BNL is then derived via BNL=BAB?BA?BB. This nonlinear signal BNL can be then processed (e.g., Fourier transform) to study the properties of the sample.

A web search is performed using the organization name, producing web search results. A second plurality of features is extracted for each web search result in the set of web search results. Each of the extracted second plurality of features for each web search result in the set of web search results is input into a supervised machine learning classifier to classify each of the web search results in the set of web search results as either containing an organization web address or not containing an organization web address. In response to a determination by the supervised machine learning classifier that a first web search result contains an organization web address, the organization web address from the first web search result is injected into an organization web address field of the first record.
