An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: in compatible change of a first document to a second document in a second format, the first document being generated in a first format, the second format being different from the first format, when the first document contains incompatible data which is not compatible with the second format, convert the incompatible data to data compatible with the second format, and add the converted incompatible data to the second document; and embed link information for the converted incompatible data at a position, in the second document, corresponding to an original position, in the first document, of the incompatible data.

Persistent storage may contain: (i) a database table containing entries, (ii) a definition of a communication endpoint of a remote system, and (iii) outbound flow processing. One or more processors may be configured to: detect a state change associated with a local entry in the database table; read, from the database table, a set of data representing the local entry; transform, using the outbound flow processing, the set of data into a format receivable by the remote system; create, for the set of data, a correlation record that contains a local correlation identifier, wherein the correlation record specifies the local entry; transmit, to the remote system, the set of data as transformed and the local correlation identifier; receive, from the remote system and for the set of data, a remote correlation identifier; add, to the correlation record, the remote correlation identifier; and write, to a correlation table, the correlation record.

The retrieval of files can be facilitated in real-time in the general context of backup and recovery. A processor can receive a request to retrieve a particular volume of data from an object storage database. A virtual volume can be presented to an emulator for creation of a virtual machine representing the particular volume of data. A request can be received to access a particular file from the particular volume of data at a specific point in time. In response to the request to access the file, the data stream can be paused, the particular file can be fetched, and the particular file can be transmitted to the emulator.

Systems and methods for receiving a set of documents (e.g., financial documents) converting them into graphical images, performing image-based, artificial intelligence analysis to determine a score for the set of documents. In addition, the artificial intelligence system generates an image output that indicates how the artificial intelligence system arrived at the score be visually depicting the graphical features detected by the artificial intelligence system. This may allow insight as to the basis for the score.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus, systems, computer program products for transferring a performance of a procedure found in technical documentation for an item via an interactive electronic technical manual system (IETM) configured to provide electronic and credentialed access to the technical documentation. In one embodiment, a method is provided comprising: providing the steps of the procedure in an order in which the steps are to be carried out; and while a user is participating in the performance of the procedure: causing a particular step that is being carried out to be highlighted; receiving input of a selection of a transfer mechanism and in response: causing an indication to be displayed between the particular step and a next step to be carried out identifying where the performance has been suspended; providing a transfer window displaying transfer information; and recording the transfer information and an identifier for the indication.

A system translates a first biometric template of a first type to enable comparison with a second biometric template of a second type. In one example, a canonical template structure to which the first and second biometric templates adhere may be identified and used to compare corresponding portions of the first and second biometric templates. In another example, types and associated formats of the first and second biometric templates may be identified to enable both to be translated to a general format that can then be compared. In still other examples, an identification system may use the first biometric template to determine an identity associated with first biometric data to either retrieve second stored biometric data associated with the identity of a same type as the second biometric template or verify that an account in an external system having a record storing the second biometric template is associated with the identity.

A computer-implemented method, computer program product and computing system for: processing an unencoded data file to identify a plurality of file segments, wherein the unencoded data file is a dataset for use with a blockchain process; mapping each of the plurality of file segments to a portion of a dictionary file to generate a plurality of mappings that each include a starting location and a length, thus generating a related encoded data file based, at least in part, upon the plurality of mappings; receiving a request to manipulate the unencoded data file from the blockchain process; and processing the related encoded data file based, at least in part, upon the plurality of mappings and the dictionary file to generate a modified encoded data file that represents the requested manipulations of the unencoded data file.

A method for providing data blocking to facilitate distributed entity resolution is disclosed. The method includes receiving data sets from a source, the data sets including records that correspond to an entity; grouping each of the records into a block based on a shared characteristic, the block including a blocking key; converting the block into a data file, the data file corresponding to a predetermined file format; partitioning the data file based on the corresponding blocking key; determining, via a worker node, a potential record pair by using the partitioned data file; and persisting the potential record pair.

Systems and techniques are provided for flexible data ingestion. Data including a file including a database table may be received at a computing device. The file may be in a non-standard binary format. The data including the file may be stored unaltered as a source data chunk. A processed data chunk may be generated from the source data chunk by converting the file to a standard binary format and storing the file in the processed data chunk without altering the source data chunk. A materialized data chunk may be generated from the processed data chunk by performing, with a database server engine of the computing device, a database operation on the database table of the file of the processed data chunk and storing the file in the materialized data chunk without altering the processed data chunk. The database table of the file of the materialized data chunk may be made available for querying by the database server engine.

Universal, automatic file conversion may be provided by a universal file conversion system or application. An input file may be received by the universal file conversion system. An input file type for the input file and a recipient of the input file may be determined. Programs available to the recipient for accessing a file may be determined. A target file type accessible to the recipient may be determined for converting the input file. A sequence of file conversions to convert the input file to the target file type may be determined. The input file may be converted to the target file type based on the sequence of file conversions. The converted file may be provided to the recipient. The recipient may return the converted file, and the converted file may be automatically converted back to the original input file type and provided to the original source of the input file.
