Abstract: Various embodiments promote the discoverability of data that can be contained within a database. In one or more embodiments, data within a database is organized in a structure having a schema. The structure and data can be processed in a manner that renders one or more pseudo-documents each of which constitutes a sub-structure that can be indexed. Once produced and indexed, the pseudo-documents constitute a set of searchable objects each of which relationally points back to its associated structure within the database. Searches can now be performed against the pseudo-documents which, in turn, returns a set of search results. The set of search results can include multiple sub-sets of pseudo-documents, each sub-set of which is associated with a different structure.

Abstract: A system for browsing items related to an email comprises a grouping component that groups items into a plurality of sets of related items. A tagging component associates one or more tags with each of the sets of related items, and an email display component displays an email and one or more tags associated with the displayed email. A related item display component receives a user selection of at least one of the one or more tags and displays one or more items related to the displayed email based at least in part upon the user selection.

Abstract: A technique for generating high-resolution bitmaps from low-resolution bitmaps. A low-resolution bitmap is magnified to form a magnified image. Edge detection is performed on the magnified image to find high contrast edges. A plurality of image patches of the magnified image are generated. These images patches are analyzed by performing connected components analysis on each of them using the high contrast edges to produce a plurality of foreground and background decisions determining whether a portion of an image patch is a background or a foreground region. Then the contrast of one or more pixels in each of the plurality of image patches is enhanced based on the foreground and background decisions. Finally, the system and method of the invention combines the luminance of the enhanced output pixels with the color values generated by the magnification algorithm. This produces a high-resolution bitmap from the contrast-enhanced pixels.

Abstract: The described implementations relate to processing of electronic data. One implementation is manifest as a technique that can include obtaining a relational query that references one or more data items and associating progress intervals with the data items. The technique can also include converting the relational query into a corresponding streaming query, and providing the streaming query and the data items with the progress intervals to a stream engine that produces incremental results of the query. For example, the progress intervals can be based on row numbers of a relational database table. The progress intervals can be used to define event lifetimes of streaming events that are provided as inputs to the stream engine.

Abstract: A saltating sample image enhancement system and method that provides an image processing operation in which a filter considers one or one or more exact source image pixels; one or more bilinearly interpolated source image samples, where the bilinear weights are coupled to the position of the target pixel relative to the source pixels; and (optionally) one or more linearly interpolated source image samples, where the linear weights are coupled to the position of the target pixel relative to the source pixels. The filter can construct a spatially continuous image statistic.

CPC classification number: G06F17/30997

Abstract: A system enables metadata to be gathered about a data store beginning from the creation and generation of the data store, through subsequent use of the data store. This metadata can include keywords related to the data store and data appearing within the data store. Thus, keywords and other metadata can be generated without owner/creator intervention, with enough semantic meaning to make a discovery process associated with the data store much easier and efficient. Usage of or communication regarding a data store are monitored and keywords are extracted from the usage or communication. The keywords are then written to otherwise associated with metadata of the data store. During searching, keywords in the metadata are made available to be used to attempt to match query terms entered by a searcher.

Abstract translation: 系统通过后续使用数据存储，可以从数据存储的创建和生成开始收集关于数据存储的元数据。 该元数据可以包括与数据存储相关的关键字和数据存储中出现的数据。 因此，关键字和其他元数据可以在没有所有者/创建者干预的情况下生成，具有足够的语义意义，使得与数据存储相关联的发现过程更容易和高效。 对数据存储的使用或通信进行监控，并从使用或通信中提取关键字。 然后将关键字写入与数据存储的元数据相关联。 在搜索期间，元数据中的关键字可用于尝试匹配搜索者输入的查询词。

Abstract: In one embodiment, datasets are stored in a catalog. The datasets are enriched by establishing relationships among the domains in different datasets. A user searches for relevant datasets by providing examples of the domains of interest. The system identifies datasets corresponding to the user-provided examples. The system them identifies connected subsets of the datasets that are directly linked or indirectly linked through other domains. The user provides known relationship examples to filter the connected subsets and to identify the connected subsets that are most relevant to the user's query. The selected connected subsets may be further analyzed by business intelligence/analytics to create pivot tables or to process the data.

Abstract: A malicious behavior detection/prevention system, such as an intrusion detection system, is provided that uses active learning to classify entries into multiple classes. A single entry can correspond to either the occurrence of one or more events or the non-occurrence of one or more events. During a training phase, entries are automatically classified into one of multiple classes. After classifying the entry, a generated model for the determined class is utilized to determine how well an entry corresponds to the model. Ambiguous classifications along with entries that do not fit the model well for the determined class are selected for labeling by a human analyst The selected entries are presented to a human analyst for labeling. These labels are used to further train the classifier and the models. During an evaluation phase, entries are automatically classified using the trained classifier and a policy associated with determined class is applied.
