A system and method for generating predictions of geopolitical events is provided. Predictions may be generated by retrieving relevant metadata associated with a content item and evaluating one or more signals representative of the same.

OPERATING A STORAGE SERVER WITH A STORAGE VOLUME

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for operating at least one storage server. The present invention may include receiving an access request for at least one storage volume of at least one storage server. The present invention may include collecting data for the at least one storage volume, wherein the at least one storage volume has a corresponding unique volume identifier. The present invention may include storing at least the data for the at least one storage volume and the unique volume identifier in a database, the data being comprised of metadata and subset data, wherein the metadata is comprised of configuration and status information for the at least one storage volume, and wherein the subset data is a set of predefined selection criteria based on a respective computer server.

Managing data queries

One method includes receiving a database query, receiving information about a database table in data storage populated with data elements, producing a structural representation of the database table that includes a formatted data organization reflective of the database table and is absent the data elements of the database table, and providing the structural representation and the database query to a plan generator capable of producing a query plan representing operations for executing the database query on the database table. Another method includes receiving a query plan from a plan generator, the plan representing operations for executing a database query on a database table, and producing a dataflow graph from the query plan, wherein the dataflow graph includes at least one node that represents at least one operation represented by the query plan, and includes at least one link that represents at least one dataflow associated with the query plan.

Techniques for pushing joins into union all views
11593366 · 2023-02-28 · ·

A query with a UNION ALL (UA) view is detected by a query optimizer. A query execution plan and cost for the query is obtained. The query is rewritten to push aggregates of the original query into the view. A query execution plan is generated for the rewritten query and a cost for executing the rewritten query is obtained. The lowest cost execution plan is selected for execution by a database engine of a database.

Secure aggregate function computation system, secure computation apparatus, secure aggregate function computation method, and program

To efficiently determine intermediate data for use with an aggregate function while keeping confidentiality, a bit decomposition unit generates a share of a bit string by bit decomposition and concatenation of key attributes. A group sort generation unit generates a share of a first permutation, which performs a stable sort of the bit string in ascending order. A bit string sorting unit generates a share of a sorted bit string obtained by sorting the bit string with the first permutation. A flag generation unit generates a share of a flag indicating a boundary between groups. A key aggregate sort generation unit generates a share of a second permutation, which performs a stable sort of the negation of the flag in ascending order. A de-duplication unit generates shares of de-duplicated key attributes. A key sorting unit generates shares of sorted key attributes by sorting the de-duplicated key attributes.

A/B testing of service-level metrics

The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing A/B testing of service-level metrics. During operation, the system obtains service-level metrics for service calls made during an A/B test, wherein the service-level metrics are aggregated by user identifiers of multiple users. Next, the system matches the service-level metrics to treatment assignments of the users to a treatment group and a control group in the A/B test. The system then applies the A/B test to a first grouping of the service-level metrics for the treatment group and a second grouping of the service-level metrics for the control group. Finally, the system outputs a result of the A/B test for use in assessing an effect of a treatment variant in the A/B test on the service-level metrics.

Indexing based on feature importance

A method and a computer program product are used generating an index of a scoring payload dataset. Correlation coefficients for correlations between input data values and output data values of the machine learning model provided by the scoring payload datasets as well as performance data values of the processes provided by process datasets are calculated. Features of which feature values are used as input data values are ranked according to their importance using the correlation coefficients. For the features of a set of highest-ranking features feature value sets with feature values of the respective features are selected from the scoring payload datasets and a database index of the selected feature value sets is generated.

Tree-like metadata structure for composite datasets

Disclosed are embodiments for generating metadata files for composite datasets. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising generating a tree representing a plurality of datasets; parsing the tree into an algebraic representation of the tree; identifying a plurality of terms in the algebraic representation, each term in the terms comprising at least two factors, each of the two factors associated with a dataset in the plurality of datasets; generating a metadata object of the plurality of terms; serializing the metadata object to generate serialized terms; and storing the serialized terms in a metadata file associated with the plurality of datasets.
