Data distribution through capacity leveling in a striped file system

A data distribution technique is configured to provide capacity leveling in a striped file system. When a new node is added to a striped volume set, the striping table is evolved to accommodate the newly added node. Each node of a cluster is illustratively associated with a capacity value that takes into account, e.g., processor speed, number of processors, hardware configuration and / or software available for the node. During the evolution process of the striping table, the technique apportions stripes of the SVS among the nodes in a manner so that they are optimally assigned to the nodes in accordance with each node's capacity value. By utilizing the evolutionary striping table that incorporates capacity values, heterogeneous nodes may be utilized to their maximum capacity within a striped volume set, thereby reducing underutilized processing resources.

Manipulation of streams of monitoring data

Streams of monitoring data relating to part of a communications network, are manipulated automatically by looking up a corresponding indexed value in a stored index, and selectively replacing that attribute value with the corresponding indexed value. The selective replacement is based on a characteristic of the stream of monitored data, or the network being monitored. The selection or the indexed values can be adapted dynamically. Such selective replacement at the attribute field level can enable the data to be enriched with embedded information or be compressed more efficiently with less processing overhead by exploiting knowledge of the data format and the network configuration. It is compatible with hardware implementations. The embedded information can enable subsequent processing of the monitored data to be speeded up.

A cellular communication system is supported by first physical layer processes, second layer user plane control processes and third layer control plane control processes. The first layer process is executed in a base station (101). A distribution controller (113) allocates the layer processes such that the second layer process is executed in a different network element than the third layer process. The second and / or third layer process may furthermore be allocated to a different network element than the base station (101) executing the first layer process. The second and / or third layer process may be allocated to base stations (103, 105). This allows improved load balancing and / or may reduce RNC relocations in a system having base station RNC functionality.

System and methods of tracking using radio frequency identification

A system for tracking movement of assets or persons includes a presence sensor coupled to an RFID exciter or transmitter. Upon detection of object presence by a sensor, the exciter is turned on and caused to transmit an RFID tag exciting signal. The signal may be received by and activate a corresponding RFID tag that is within range of the exciter. The RFID tag may then transmit its ID, the ID of the exciter, and the sensed presence information to a remote RF receiver and back-end data processing system.

Method and system for distributed image processing and storage

A user processes high resolution digital images at a user computer by converting the high resolution images into low and thumbnail resolution formats and by converting the high resolution images into a JPEG format. The user also enters image related data into the user computer and creates a user database. The processed image data and the image related data are stored in the same database, i.e., a user database, and are transmitted to the host site. At the host site, the processed image data and the image related data are stored in the same database, i.e., a host database. Alternatively, users store a plurality of images in high resolution, low resolution and thumbnail formats at the user computer and upload to the host site those images—in thumbnail and low resolution format—that the user selects. Customers view the selected images at the host site and order desired images. The host site sends an image order to the user computer, and the user computer transmits the ordered images to an image laboratory in high resolution format for printing.

Dynamically tracking spectrum features for endpoint detection

A method of controlling polishing includes polishing a substrate and receiving an identification of a selected spectral feature, a wavelength range having a width, and a characteristic of the selected spectral feature to monitor during polishing. A sequence of spectra of light from the substrate is measured while the substrate is being polished. A sequence of values of the characteristic of the selected spectral feature is generated from the sequence of spectra. For at least some spectra from the sequence of spectra, a modified wavelength range is generated based on a position of the spectral feature within a previous wavelength range used for a previous spectrum in the sequence of spectra, the modified wavelength range is searched for the selected spectral feature, and a value of a characteristic of the selected spectral feature is determined.

Training a classifier algorithm used for automatically generating tags to be applied to images

This disclosure relates to training a classifier algorithm that can be used for automatically selecting tags to be applied to a received image. For example, a computing device can group training images together based on the training images having similar tags. The computing device trains a classifier algorithm to identify the training images as semantically similar to one another based on the training images being grouped together. The trained classifier algorithm is used to determine that an input image is semantically similar to an example tagged image. A tag is generated for the input image using tag content from the example tagged image based on determining that the input image is semantically similar to the tagged image.

Continuous learning for intrusion detection

Balancing the observed signals used to train network intrusion detection models allows for a more accurate allocation of computing resources to defend the network from malicious parties. The models are trained against live data defined within a rolling window and historic data to detect user-defined features in the data. Automated attacks ensure that various kinds of attacks are always present in the rolling training window. The set of models are constantly trained to determine which model to place into production, to alert analysts of intrusions, and / or to automatically deploy countermeasures. The models are continually updated as the features are redefined and as the data in the rolling window changes, and the content of the rolling window is balanced to provide sufficient data of each observed type by which to train the models. When balancing the dataset, low-population signals are overlaid onto high-population signals to balance their relative numbers.

Systems and methods for price markdown optimization

In general, the embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for evaluating and selecting a pricing markdown solution. Specifically, these systems and methods evaluate a relatively small subset of potential markdown solutions using an objective function to determine a financial impact metric for those markdown solutions. From that relatively small subset, the systems and methods then utilize Gaussian Process Modeling to generate an estimation function of the financial impact metrics. This estimation function can then be used with a directed search to select new potential markdown solutions for evaluation, and results of those evaluations used to update the estimation function. This process is continued iteratively until an optimized markdown solution for the financial impact metric is identified.

Data model processing in machine learning employing feature selection using sub-population analysis

A computer system selects features of a dataset for predictive modeling. A first set of features that are relevant to outcome are selected from a dataset comprising a plurality of cases and controls. A subset of cases and controls having similar values for the first set of features is identified. The subset is analyzed to select a set of additional features relevant to outcome. A first and second predictive model are evaluated to determine that the second predictive model more accurately predicts outcome, wherein the first predictive model is based on the first set of features and the second predictive model is based on the first set of features and the additional features. The second predictive model is utilized to predict outcomes. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for selecting features of a dataset for predictive modeling in substantially the same manner described above.
