Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110138264Verification Of Data Stream Computations Using Third-Party-Supplied Annotations - A third party that performs data stream computation is requested to return not only the solution to the computation, but also “annotations” to the original data stream. The annotations are then used by the data owner (in actuality, a “verifier” associated with the data owner) to check the results of the third party's computations. As implemented, the verifier combines the annotations with the original data, performs some computations, and is then assured of the correctness of the provided solution. The cost of verification is significantly lower to the data owner than the cost of fully processing the data “in house”.06-09-2011

20080306908Finding Related Entities For Search Queries - Architecture for finding related entities for web search queries. An extraction component takes a document as input and outputs all the mentions (or occurrences) of named entities such as names of people, organizations, locations, and products in the document, as well as entity metadata. An indexing component takes a document identifier (docID) and the set of mentions of named entities and, stores and indexes the information for retrieval. A document-based search component takes a keyword query and returns the docIDs of the top documents matching with the query. A retrieval component takes a docID as input, accesses the information stored by the indexing component and returns the set of mentions of named entities in the document. This information is then passed to an entity scoring and thresholding component that computes an aggregate score of each entity and selects the entities to return to the user.12-11-2008
20090300014MEMBERSHIP CHECKING OF DIGITAL TEXT - The described implementations relate to data analysis, such as membership checking. One technique identifies candidate matches between document sub-strings and database members utilizing signatures. The technique further verifies that the candidate matches are true matches.12-03-2009
20090319500Scalable lookup-driven entity extraction from indexed document collections - A set of documents is filtered for entity extraction. A list of entity strings is received. A set of token sets that covers the entity strings in the list is determined. An inverted index generated on a first set of documents is queried using the set of token sets to determine a set of document identifiers for a subset of the documents in the first set. A second set of documents identified by the set of document identifiers is retrieved from the first set of documents. The second set of documents is filtered to include one or more documents of the second set that each includes a match with at least one entity string of the list of entity strings. Entity recognition may be performed on the filtered second set of documents.12-24-2009
20090327223QUERY-DRIVEN WEB PORTALS - The described implementations relate to query portals. One technique analyzes search results generated by a web search engine responsive to a user search query. The technique also dynamically generates a query portal that lists the search results as well as entities identified from the search results.12-31-2009
20100299367Keyword Searching On Database Views - A keyword search is executed on a view of a database based on a Boolean keyword query. The view includes multiple text columns, and the keyword search is executed on each of the multiple text columns in the view. The output results from the keyword search on each of the text columns include tuple identifiers of one or more relevant tuples and a relevancy score for ranking the results of the keyword query.11-25-2010
20110320446Pushing Search Query Constraints Into Information Retrieval Processing - This patent application relates to interval-based information retrieval (IR) search techniques for efficiently and correctly answering keyword search queries. In some embodiments, a range of information-containing blocks for a search query can be identified. Each of these blocks, and thus the range, can include document identifiers that identify individual corresponding documents that contain a term found in the search query. From the range, a subrange(s) having a smaller number of blocks than the range can be selected. This can be accomplished without decompressing the blocks by partitioning the range into intervals and evaluating the intervals. The smaller number of blocks in the subranges(s) can then be decompressed and processed to identify a doc ID(s) and thus document(s) that satisfies the query.12-29-2011
