Methods and apparatus for data operation pre-processing with probabilistic estimation of operation value

A computer program product, comprising a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium having encoded therein executable code of one or more software programs, wherein the one or more software programs when executed by at least one processing device perform the following steps:

• extracting feature values from a data set;
• identifying a set of operations that previously processed data sets comprising said extracted feature values;
• determining whether to execute at least one individual operation from said set of operations before the execution of said at least one individual operation is explicitly requested based on a probabilistic evaluation of a value of pre-processing said at least one individual operation, wherein said value comprises one or more of (i) an estimated value of one or more features produced by the at least one individual operation, and (ii) an estimated value of one or more additional operations enabled by one or more features of data produced by the at least one individual operation;
• and
• executing a set of instructions for said at least one individual operation, wherein said set of instructions includes a proactive execution of said at least one individual operation before the execution of said at least one individual operation is explicitly requested, when said determining step determines that said at least one individual operation is to be executed.

A system, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processing device, coupled to the memory, operative to implement the following steps:
• extracting feature values from a data set;
• identifying a set of operations that previously processed data sets comprising said extracted feature values;
• determining whether to execute at least one individual operation from said set of operations before the execution of said at least one individual operation is explicitly requested based on a probabilistic evaluation of a value of pre-processing said at least one individual operation, wherein said value comprises one or more of (i) an estimated value of one or more features produced by the at least one individual operation, and (ii) an estimated value of one or more additional operations enabled by one or more features of data produced by the at least one individual operation;
• and
• executing a set of instructions for said at least one individual operation, wherein said set of instructions includes a proactive execution of said at least one individual operation before the execution of said at least one individual operation is explicitly requested, when said determining step determines that said at least one individual operation is to be executed.
