US Patent 11763176 Search and query in computer-based reasoning systems

Techniques for improved searching and querying in computer-based reasoning systems are discussed and include receiving multiple new multidimensional data element to store in a computer-based reasoning data model; determining a feature bucket for each feature of each data element and storing a reference identifier in the feature bucket(s). A query on the computer-based reasoning system includes input data element (e.g., an actual data element, or a set of restrictions on features). For each feature in the input data element, feature buckets are determined, candidate results are determined based on whether cases have related feature buckets, and the results are determined based at least in part on the candidate results. In some embodiments, control of controllable systems may be caused based on the results.
