  • Patent number: 11960867
    Abstract: Using a natural language (NL) latent presentation in the automated conversion of source code from a base programming language (e.g., C++) to a target programming language (e.g., Python). A base-to-NL model can be used to generate an NL latent representation by processing a base source code snippet in the base programming language. Further, an NL-to-target model can be used to generate a target source code snippet in the target programming language (that is functionally equivalent to the base source code snippet), by processing the NL latent representation. In some implementations, output(s) from the NL-to-target model indicate canonical representation(s) of variables, and in generating the target source code snippet, technique(s) are used to match those canonical representation(s) to variable(s) of the base source code snippet. In some implementations, multiple candidate target source code snippets are generated, and a subset (e.g., one) is selected based on evaluation(s).

  • Patent number: 11928423
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure pertain to inferring a candidate entity associated with a transaction with a machine learning model. An organization identifier and description associated with a transaction can be received as input. In response, an entity embedding, comprising a vector for each entity of an organization based on the organization identifier, can be retrieved from storage. A machine learning model can be invoked with the entity embedding and description. The machine learning model can be trained to infer a transaction embedding from the description and compute a similarity score between the transaction embedding and each vector of the entity embedding. A candidate entity with a similarity score satisfying a threshold can be identified and returned. The candidate entity with the highest similarity score can be identified in certain aspects.

  • Patent number: 11881041
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores a dictionary and a machine learning algorithm trained to classify text. The processor receives an image of a page, converts the image into a set of text, and identifies a plurality of tokens within the text. Each token includes one or more contiguous characters that are both preceded and followed by whitespace within the text. The processor identifies invalid tokens by removing tokens of the plurality of tokens that correspond to words of the dictionary. The processor calculates, based on a ratio of a total number of valid tokens to a total number of tokens, a score. In response to determining that the score is greater than a threshold, the processor applies the machine learning algorithm to classify the text into a category and stores the image and/or text in a database according to the category.

  • Patent number: 11831414
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for deploying different virtual networks over several public cloud datacenters for different entities. For each entity, the method (1) identifies a set of public cloud datacenters of one or more public cloud providers to connect a set of machines of the entity, (2) deploys managed forwarding nodes (MFNs) for the entity in the identified set of public cloud datacenters, and then (3) configures the MFNs to implement a virtual network that connects the entity's set of machines across its identified set of public cloud datacenters. In some embodiments, the method identifies the set of public cloud datacenters for an entity by receiving input from the entity's network administrator. In some embodiments, this input specifies the public cloud providers to use and/or the public cloud regions in which the virtual network should be defined. Conjunctively, or alternatively, this input in some embodiments specifies actual public cloud datacenters to use.

  • Patent number: 11830580
    Abstract: A large collection of sample genomes containing misclassified k-mers and metadata errors from a reference taxonomy was converted to a self-consistent k-mer database comprising a self-consistent taxonomy. The self-consistent taxonomy was based on genetic distances calculated using the MinHash method or the Meier-Koltoff method. An agglomerative clustering algorithm was used to calculate the self-consistent taxonomy. Each k-mer of the sample genomes was assigned to only one node of the self-consistent taxonomy. In another step, each node of the self-consistent taxonomy was mapped to the reference taxonomy, thereby preserving in the self-consistent taxonomy links to the reference taxonomy while correcting for the misclassification errors therein. The self-consistent k-mer database can be used to taxonomically profile sequenced nucleic acids with greater specificity compared to systems relying on the reference taxonomy.

  • Patent number: 11830268
    Abstract: A method performed by a computing system comprises receiving, by a hierarchical document classification system (HDCS), a document that includes image data and textual data, wherein the document is associated with a document type. The HDCS determines a first machine learning (ML) classifier of the HDCS associated with the document type. The first ML classifier corresponds to one of an image-based ML classifier of the HDCS and a text-based ML classifier of the HDCS. The determined first ML classifier classifies the document as being associated with a particular class of document of a plurality of classes of documents. A second ML classifier associated with the class of document classifies the document as being associated with a particular subclass of a plurality of subclasses of the class of document. The HDCS communicates information that specifies the class and the subclass associated with the document to a terminal.

  • Patent number: 11823275
    Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to manipulating and visualizing database objects that represent layers and parts of layers in insurance or other risk transfer programs. Disclosed is graphically creating placement objects, maintaining a database of objects that can be linked in trees, with policy objects linked to respective proposal objects, and coverage objects linked to the proposal objects and the policy objects. A GUI represents a placement using objects, with metadata that describes objects' statuses, with groups of objects properly nested and linked in the database of objects. User selection of a displayed first object and mode control initiates creation of second objects linked to the first object and, opening of a panel that scales the selected first object to fit the panel and allows the user to add nested second objects, by drawing an added object or entering metadata for the added object, with consistent metadata constrained with the nesting.

  • Patent number: 11816210
    Abstract: A dynamically generated search query is generated based on rarity scores associated with raw-level computer events. Event data is pre-processed using historical information about the frequency, or rarity, of instances of individual events. Each event is assigned one or more labels that identify the event based on the historical information. The rarity scores represent probabilities of events occurring with the same labels. The rarity scores are associated with n-grams of the labels (e.g., a combination of two labels, three labels, etc.). A label n-gram score is calculated based on newly observed events and the rarity scores corresponding to the label n-grams. The search query is generated based on the label n-gram score. The search query is executed against a database to retrieve information, such as diagnostics, used to alert an administrator to events that are potentially anomalous.

  • Patent number: 11803569
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing access to data stored in a distributed manner across different zones of a multi-zone computing platform involve maintaining a global representation of all data stored within the multi-zone computing platform. After receiving a request on behalf of a user to access given data, a first zone of the multi-zone computing platform (i) obtains, from the global representation, information indicating a particular zone where the given data is stored, (ii) validates the request, and (iii) if the validation is successful, processes the request. If the given data is stored at the first zone, the first zone retrieves the given data for provision to the user. If the given data is stored at a second zone, the first zone issues a request to the second zone to validate the request, and if the validation is successful, retrieve the given data for provision to the user.
