20130124238 | Detecting Travel Information - Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for detecting travel information. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a document; annotating detected entities in the document; generating one or more travel leg structures using the annotations, wherein generating the one or more travel leg structures includes determining that one or more annotations match a valid travel schedule; and generating an itinerary from the one or more travel leg structures. | 05-16-2013 |
20140370920 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING AND EMPLOYING AN INDEX ASSOCIATING GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS WITH GEOGRAPHIC OBJECTS - A computer-implemented method that includes for each geographic object of a geo-object set, identifying, using a computer, one or more geographic cells of a geographic mapping that each correspond to a geographic area proximate to at least a portion of a geometry of the geographic object and assigning a weighting value to each of the one or more geographic cells identified as corresponding to a geographic area proximate to at least a portion of a geometry of the geographic object such that the one or more geographic cells are associated with the geo-object. The method also including, for each geographic cell assigned one or more weighting values, aggregating the one or more weighting values assigned to the geographic cell to generate an aggregated weighting value for the geographic cell, identifying a set of dense geographic cells (each geographic cell of the set of dense geographic cells having an aggregated weighting value that satisfies a weighting threshold criteria) and generating an index associating each of the one or more geographic cells of the set of dense geographic cells with one or more geographic objects associated with the geographic cell. | 12-18-2014 |

20090193059 | Data consistency control method and software for a distributed replicated database system - A distributed replicated database system having a plurality of federated database systems and methods of updating and reading database records from the distributed replicated database system are disclosed. Each federated database system contains a complete copy of a database. Moreover, each federated database system comprises at least one server divided into at least one logical partition. A logical partition contains records of the database and all logical partitions in a federated database system cumulatively stores all records in the database. A data structure is maintained which indicates whether the records in a given logical partition are up-to-date. When an update or insert request is received, the data structure is modified to indicate that all logical partitions storing a copy of the record to be updated, or partitions into which the new record is to be inserted, are not up-to-date. When the record has been updated or inserted, the data structure is modified to indicate that the logical partition storing the record is up-to-date. When a read request is received, the record is read from an up-to-date logical partition storing the record. | 07-30-2009 |
20090285471 | System, method and computing device for detecting duplicate financial documents - A method and system are disclosed for identifying in real time duplicate financial documents processed by a financial institution or check clearinghouse. A collection of hash values representative of previously processed financial documents are maintained in a memory, such as a GPU memory. When a new financial document enters the financial institution or check clearinghouse for processing, one or more features of the financial document are captured. A hash value is generated from the one or more features of the financial document. A search is performed in the collection of hash values for a matching hash value. If a match is found, a potential fraudulent event or operational error may be indicated. If a match is not found, the hash value representative of the new financial document is added to the collection of hash values. | 11-19-2009 |

20090070306 | Systems and Methods for Processing Inoperative Document Links - A server computer performs multiple operations in response to a user-identified inoperative document link. The server computer extracts one or more query terms from the user-identified document link. At least one of the query terms is different from the user-identified document link. The server computer searches a set of operative document links for one or more candidate document links in accordance with the user-identified document link. The server computer queries a cached document server for a document link to a cached copy of a document corresponding to the user-identified document link. The server computer returns at least one of the extracted query terms, the candidate document links, and the document link to the cached copy to the client computer. | 03-12-2009 |
20120233530 | Systems and Methods for Processing Inoperative Document Links - A client computer having one or more processors and memory, while displaying a browser application having a displayed address field, receives a user-identified document link. The client computer submits the user-identified document link to a server remotely located from the client computer. In response to a determination that the user-identified document link is inoperative, the client computer displays a plurality of distinct user-editable query terms in a search box distinct from the displayed address field of the browser application. At least one of the user-editable query terms is different from the user-identified document link, and is selected from a group including text extracted from the user-identified document link, and a term based on text extracted from the user-identified document link. | 09-13-2012 |
20140172839 | Method and System of Identifying Replacements for Unavailable Web Pages - A method of suggesting replacements for unavailable web pages is performed at a server system separate from a client system. A web page is identified. For documents in a collection of web pages, respective overlaps of content in the web page and the documents are determined based on stored information about content in the web page and the documents. One or more of the documents that have overlaps that satisfy a first criterion are selected. A request for a replacement for the web page is received from the client system and replacement web page information is provided to the client system. The replacement web page information is selected from the set consisting of A) one or more links to the one or more selected documents, B) a redirect to one of the one or more selected documents, and C) one of the one or more selected documents. | 06-19-2014 |
