20120078678 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ESTIMATION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS IN WORKFLOW PROCESSES - A system and method for estimation and analysis of operational parameters in workflow processes in order to establish effect of parameters on one or more critical parameters is provided. The method includes creating a Bayesian network including one or more operational nodes representing one or more operational parameters and one or more critical nodes representing one or more critical parameters. The method further includes generating an evidence set based on market events and deducing inferences based on the generated evidence set and Bayesian engine. Inferences are deduced by determining possible discrete states of operational parameters associated with one or more target nodes and their probability distribution values. Deduced inferences are then validated to confirm strength of probability distribution values. Forecasting for a selected operational parameter is performed by obtaining probability distribution of independent parameters and then performing forecasting for the selected parameter using Bayesian locally weighted regression model. | 03-29-2012 |
20120254143 | NATURAL LANGUAGE QUERYING WITH CASCADED CONDITIONAL RANDOM FIELDS - A natural language query tool comprising cascaded conditional random fields (CRFs) (e.g., a linear-chain CRF and a skip-chain CRF applied sequentially) processes natural language input to produce output that can be used in database searches. For example, cascaded CRFs extract entities from natural language input that correspond to column names or column values in a database, and identify relationships between the extracted entities. A search engine can execute queries based on output from the cascaded CRFs over an inverted index of a database, which can be based on one or more materialized views of the database. Results can be sorted (e.g., according to relevance scores) and presented in a user interface. | 10-04-2012 |
