A system and method lets a user create or import ontologies and create databases and related application software. These databases can be specially tuned to suit a particular need, and each comes with the same error-detection rules to keep the data clean. Such databases may be searched based on meaning, rather than on words-that-begin-with-something. And multiple databases, if generated from the same basic ontology can communicate with each other without any additional effort. Ontology management and generation tools enable enterprises to create databases that use ontologies to improve data integration, maintainability, quality, and flexibility. Only the relevant aspects of the ontology are targeted, extracting out a sub-model that has the power of the full ontology restricted to objects of interest for the application domain. To increase performance and add desired database characteristics, this sub-model is translated into a database system. Java-based object-oriented and relational application program interfaces (APIs) are then generated from this translation, providing application developers with an API that exactly reflects the entity types and relations (classes and methods) that are represented by the database. This generation approach essentially turns the ontology into a set of integrated and efficient databases.

The present disclosure relates generally to an integrated machine learning platform. The machine learning platform can convert machine learning models with different schemas into machine learning models that share a common schema, organize the machine learning models into model groups based on certain criteria, and perform pre-deployment evaluation of the machine learning models. The machine learning models in a model group can be evaluated or used individually or as a group. The machine learning platform can be used to deploy a model group and a selector in a production environment, and the selector may learn to dynamically select the model(s) from the model group in the production environment in different contexts or for different input data, based on a score determined using certain scoring metrics, such as certain business goals.

A method and system for managing user identities on a network is disclosed. form independent model for managing user identities on a network is disclosed which translated to one or more platform-specific models for the actual implementation. An trator is provided with the ability to add, modify and delete actors on the network. or, such as a help desk, is ascribed use cases, such as enabling passwords, resetting s, and disenabling passwords, that are appropriate for that actor. The administrator modify each use case, such as by unlocking a user's account before resetting the d or providing an email notification to a user prior to resetting a password, to the desired by the administrator. As a result, an actor with no or little programming skills form sophisticated identity management functions resulting in improved efficiency and lower cost to the company.

A Model Transformation Authoring Framework (MTAF)method and apparatus for authoring and providing model-to-model transformations from one domain to another domain is disclosed. Given a domain and a target domain, at least the given domain having a respective structured hierarchy, the invention system enables a user to specify a declarative mapping (transformation declarative) between a domain specific language modeling the given domain and a modeling language modeling the target domain. The declarative mapping models how the domain specific language modeling the given domain relates to the modeling language of the target domain. The system generates a transformation code implementation of a transformation from the given domain to the target domain. The MTAF provides to the user design decisions with respect to Specification, Transformation Rules, Rule Organization, Rule Application Control, Source-Target Relationship, Incrementality, and Directionality and Tracing. The generated transformation code is executed at runtime to perform the transformation of the domain specific language of the given domain to the modeling language of the target domain. Instances of models of the target domain resulting from the performed transformation at runtime may be output to other model transformations, to JET templates, or may be persisted, merged or chained among other post processing.

An environment for composing software permits the separation of control functions from information about the context in which the control functions operate. The software composition environment is used to make a system which will translate XML documents into models and vice-versa. The translation system is used to translate an XML document having one DTD into an XML document having another DTD by translating the first XML document into a model representing the semantics of the XML document and translating the model into the second XML document (2005). The system for translating XML documents into models employs a general technique for translating any XML documents into a mirror model (2107) that reflects the structure of the XML document and a general technique of using tag pattern models (2109) to obtain information from one model and using it to make or modify another model. In the system for translating XML document, the tag pattern models are used to translate mirror models into semantic models and vice-versa.

A template-driven system for generating platform-specific artifacts, such as program code, from platform-independent service models is described. The system comprises a template storage (102) with platform-specific templates, each template including platform-specific model transformation information; a repository (104) with a plurality of at least essentially platform-independent service model elements and one or more service models modeled from the model elements; and a generator (106) adapted to generate platform-specific artifacts by applying the transformation information included in the templates to the service models.

An automated system and method of geometric 3D point location. The invention teaches a system design for translating a CAD model into real spatial locations at a construction site, interior environment, or other workspace. Specified points are materialized by intersecting two visible pencil light beams there, each beam under the control of its own robotic ray-steering beam source. Practicability requires each beam source to know its precise location and rotational orientation in the CAD-based coordinate system. As an enabling sub-invention, therefore, an automated system and method for self-location and self-orientation of a polar-angle-sensing device is specified, based on its observation of three (3) known reference points. Two such devices, under the control of a handheld unit downloaded with the CAD model or pointlist, are sufficient to orchestrate the arbitrary point location of the invention, by the following method: Three CAD-specified reference points are optically defined by emplacing a spot retroreflector at each. The user then situates the two beam source devices at unspecified locations and orientations. The user then trains each beam source on each reference point, enabling the beam source to compute its location and orientation, using the algorithm of the sub-invention. The user then may select a CAD-specified design point using the handheld controller, and in response, the handheld instructs the two beam sources to radiate toward the currently selected point P. Each beam source independently transforms P into a direction vector from self, applies a 3×3 matrix rotator that corrects for its arbitrary rotational orientation, and instructs its robotics to assume the resultant beam direction. In consummation of the inventive thread, the pair of light beams form an intersection at the specified point P, giving the worker visual cues to precisely position materials there. This design posits significant ease-of-use advantages over construction point location using a single-beam total station. The invention locates the point effortlessly and with dispatch compared to the total station method of iterative manual search maneuvering a prism into place. Speed enables building features on top of point location, such as metered plumb and edge traversal, and graphical point selection. The invention eliminates the need for a receiving device to occupy space at the specified point, leaving it free to be occupied by building materials. The invention's beam intersection creates a pattern of instantaneous visual feedback signifying correct emplacement of such building materials. Unlike surveying instruments, the invention's freedom to situate its two ray-steering devices at arbitrary locations and orientations, and its reliance instead on the staking of 3 reference points, eliminates the need for specialized surveying skill to set up and operate the system, widening access to builders, engineers, and craftspeople.

Provided is an apparatus and method for immediately creating and controlling a virtual reality interactive human body model for a user-centric interface.

An automated model componentization feature systematically converts duplicate or otherwise amenable patterns in a model into references. Multiple references are simplified to one unit that contains the otherwise duplicated functionality. Duplicated or selected functionality is identified based on a number of arguments that may be user supplied. These arguments include the level of polymorphism (i.e., which of the sample times, dimensions, and data types can be propagated in) but also the maximum size of the patterns to look for to address the general trade-off of generating few partitions with many blocks or many partitions with few blocks and which modeling constructs are used (e.g., whether Go To/From connections such as in Simulink® are present). Model conversions can result in potentially disjoint partitions.

A method, system, and computer instructions for using the language of the business domain to express subscriptions to a publish/subscribe messaging system. The resulting notifications sent to the subscriber are instances of the business model used to create the subscription. In other words, a subscriber may subscribe to the messaging system against the same information that the subscriber receives in a notification from the messaging system. The present invention uses the model from the business domain as the basis for notification subscriptions to allow for defining filters directly against the model's attributes, reducing problems caused by translating business models to a middleware description.

A system and method related to a new approach to speech recognition that reacts to concepts conveyed through speech. In its fullest implementation, the system and method shifts the balance of power in speech recognition from straight sound recognition and statistical models to a more powerful and complete approach determining and addressing conveyed concepts. This is done by using a probabilistically unbiased multi-phoneme recognition process, followed by a phoneme stream analysis process that builds the list of candidate words derived from recognized phonemes, followed by a permutation analysis process that produces sequences of candidate words with high potential of being syntactically valid, and finally, by processing targeted syntactic sequences in a conceptual analysis process to generate the utterance's conceptual representation that can be used to produce an adequate response. The invention can be employed for a myriad of applications, such as improving accuracy or automatically generating punctuation for transcription and dictation, word or concept spotting in audio streams, concept spotting in electronic text, customer support, call routing and other command/response scenarios.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for managing a firewall. The disclosed firewall manager facilitates the generation of a security policy for a particular network environment, and automatically generates the firewall-specific configuration files from the security policy simultaneously for multiple gateways. The security policy is separated from the vendor-specific rule syntax and semantics and from the actual network topology. Thus, the security administrator can focus on designing an appropriate policy without worrying about firewall rule complexity, rule ordering, and other low-level configuration issues. In addition, the administrator can maintain a consistent policy in the presence of intranet topology changes. The disclosed firewall manager utilizes a model definition language (MDL) and an associated parser to produce an entity relationship model. A model compiler translates the entity-relationship model into the appropriate firewall configuration files. The entity-relationship model provides a framework for representing both the firewall-independent security policy, and the network topology. The security policy is expressed in terms of “roles,” which are used to define network capabilities of sending and receiving services. A role may be assumed by different hosts or host-groups in the network. A visualization and debugging tool is provided to transform the firewall-specific configuration files into a graphical representation of the current policy on the actual topology, allowing the viability of a chosen policy to be evaluated. A role-group may be closed to prevent the inheritance of roles.
