Patent number: 11599620Abstract: A system, method, and computer program to implement Public Key Infrastructure (“PKI”)-based access controls on a computing device independently of the operating system's user identification and authorization system. A software application on a standalone, non-networked computing device detects a “smart card” with a PKI certificate identifying the card holder. The identity of the card holder is verified against a registry stored on the computing device separately from the operating system's user identification and authorization system. Verification of the identity of the card holder results in setting the state of the computer system as “authorized” or “unauthorized.” In the unauthorized state, user input and viewing of information is prevented. The software application may thus identify individual smart card holders and provide secure access to data and resources, and track authorized and unauthorized access on computing devices that must remain in an “always logged in” state.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2020Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: XANESTI TECHNOLOGY SERVICES, LLCInventor: John Horst

Patent number: 11514119Abstract: A global filter allows data filtering using attributes across multiple Analysis Tools (ATs), by broadcasting semantic filter context objects. Upon selecting object attribute values, the filter context object is created with attribute names and values. A processing engine resolves the filter context object to a data object, and then subsequently to target data. A lateral filter finds related entities in a relational database, without having to maintain and/or duplicate all of the data into a graph database. The processing engine resolves lateral filters using an entity graph path calculation conducted in conjunction with the generation of a bootstrapped graph structure. That graph structure is constructed (bootstrapped) utilizing available database schematic information—e.g., pre-calculated (key) relations and metadata read from the relational database. From that information, relationships in the bootstrapped graph structure are determined.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2020Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Anubhav Bhatia, Martin Weiss, Oliver Mainka, Ankit Shivhare, Rajarshi Ghosh, Lauren McMullen

Patent number: 11500730Abstract: An illustrative “open archive” architecture provides streamlined access to production data, which originally was stored on a NAS device but which is archived to secondary storage to free up NAS space. An open-archive server coordinates with an open-archive layer on the NAS device. The open-archive server identifies data sets on the NAS that meet archiving criteria, which are then automatically moved to an open archive in secondary storage. The open archive layer intercepts data-access calls coming into the NAS device, and reports the intercepted calls to the open-archive server. If the open-archive server determines that the data referenced in an intercepted call is in the open archive, the server initiates a restore job that recovers the data from secondary storage and stores it back on the NAS device. The intercepted call may now be served from the NAS. These operations occur automatically and without data agents for the NAS-based data.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2020Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: Commvault Systems, Inc.Inventor: Paramasivam Kumarasamy

Patent number: 11494670Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system identifies content shared within an online system and interactions between users of the online system and the content that match behavioral criteria and content-based criteria in a set of rules. Next, the system aggregates the content and the interactions into trends in the content and the interactions, predictions associated with the content and the interactions, and recommendations for moderating the content and the interactions. The system then outputs representations of the trends, the predictions, and the recommendations in a user interface. Finally, the system receives, via the user interface, an action to be performed on a subset of the content and updates sharing of the content within the online system based on the action.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2020Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Sandeep Prakash Joshi, Subhajit Datta, Debashish Ghosh, Bhavneet Singh Ahuja, Sachin Kakkar

Patent number: 11488599Abstract: The present disclosure provides method and apparatus for processing a message. A statement sentence message and a message processing parameter associated with a user's session message are obtained. One or more first statement sentence nodes that are semantic-matched with the statement sentence message are determined in the knowledge map. One or more second statement sentence nodes corresponding to the message processing parameters are obtained from the knowledge map, based on the node relationship properties of the first statement sentence nodes. A response is generated based at least in part on statement sentences of the one or more second statement sentence nodes. The generated response is provided to the user.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2019Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Ling Chen, Yu Shi, Yining Chen, Nanshan Zeng, Dong Li

Patent number: 11489906Abstract: A system for generating adaptive notifications including processors and memories storing instructions that configure the processors to perform operations. The operations may include generating an item list for notifications to a client ID, selecting a first item from the item list for notification, the first item being selected having a highest priority score and a lowest lifecycle timer, encoding a first landing page by encoding a product code and a tracking cookie in a URL configured for redirection to a first webpage by a redirect server, and transmitting a first notification with a payload including the first landing page and a first message. The operations may also include after transmitting the first notification, modifying priority scores and updating lifecycle timers based on determining whether the client device visited the first landing page. Further, the operations may also include selecting a second item from the item list for notification.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2021Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Coupang Corp.Inventors: Vinay Verma, Satyavaraprasad Vadlamudi, Xinli Bao, Tiziano Cembali

Patent number: 11475366Abstract: System and method of generating an executable action item in response to natural language dialogue are disclosed herein. A computing system receives a dialogue message from a remote client device of a customer associated with an organization, the dialogue message comprising an utterance indicative of an implied goal. A natural language processor of the computing system parses the dialogue message to identify one or more components contained in the utterance. The planning module of the computing system identifies the implied goal. The computing system generates a plan within a defined solution space. The computing system generates a verification message to the user to confirm the plan. The computing system transmits the verification message to the remote client device of the customer. The computing system updates an event queue with instructions to execute the action item according to the generated plan upon receiving a confirmation message from the remote client device.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Scott Karp, Erik Mueller, Zachary Kulis

Patent number: 11468780Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a smart-learning and knowledge retrieval system (SLKRS) are provided for imparting adaptive and personalized e-learning based on continually artificially learned unique characteristics of a knowledge seeker. The SLKRS ingests data in multiple formats from multiple sources, merges the data into a knowledge base based on computed strengths of terms in the sources, and assimilates the merged data to generate experiences. In response to a query received from the knowledge seeker, the SLKRS retrieves and sends in an immersive format one of the generated experiences or an experience created based on an artificially intelligent understanding of the received query. The SLKRS receives feedback from the knowledge seeker and computes a score based on the feedback and the query to artificially learn unique characteristics of the knowledge seeker. The SLKRS generates interventions and improved experiences for the knowledge seeker based on the computed score.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2020Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Inventor: Gopalakrishnan Venkatasubramanyam
