Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "System and method for integrating data mining into a relational database management system." This invention provides an integrated data mining and relational database management system on a server. The data mining engine determines characteristics of relationships between input data values and an output data value obtained from a relational database. This integration allows for the direct conversion of data values from the relational database to data mining identifiers used for operations by the data mining engine, and vice-versa. Additionally, patterns uncovered during data mining are made available in virtual relational database tables that can be queried.
Another notable patent is "System and method for continuously adaptive indexes." This invention employs hybrid target indexes for skewed data set domains. These hybrid indexes contain multiple value representations within a given index, optimized for particular keys in highly skewed data set domains. For instance, a hybrid target index on customer states might utilize a bitmap to represent the index value for a California key while also employing an uncompressed list of row-IDs for a Delaware key.
