20080235201 | Consistent weighted sampling of multisets and distributions - Techniques are provided that identify near-duplicate items in large collections of items. A list of (value, frequency) pairs is received, and a sample (value, instance) is returned.

The sequences of bits may be generated from a string of bits, with the sequences determined by parsing the string at each occurrence of a particular value, such as the value “1”. | 05-21-2009 |
20100070511 | REDUCING USE OF RANDOMNESS IN CONSISTENT UNIFORM HASHING - Documents that are near-duplicates may be determined using techniques involving consistent uniform hashing. A biased bit may be placed in the leading position of a sequence of bits that may be generated and subsequently used in comparison techniques to determine near-duplicate documents. Unbiased bits may be used in subsequent positions of the sequence of bits, after the biased bit, for use in comparison techniques. Samples may be used collectively, as opposed to individually, in the generation of biased bits. Sequences of bits may thus be produced not on a single sample basis, but for multiple samples, thereby amortizing the cost of generating randomness for the samples.

A distribution associated with a function used to generate the noise is referenced to determine a distribution of a number of times that a hypothetical query having a zero count would have its count exceed the threshold after the addition of noise. Random queries of an amount equal to a sample from the distribution of number of times are added to the query log with a count that is greater than the threshold count. | 08-25-2011 |
20110238611 | PROBABILISTIC INFERENCE IN DIFFERENTIALLY PRIVATE SYSTEMS - Given that a differentially private mechanism has a known conditional distribution, probabilistic inference techniques may be used along with the known conditional distribution, and generated results from previously computed queries on private data, to generate a posterior distribution for the differentially private mechanism used by the system.
