Patent number: 11983057Abstract: Streaming content using a data streaming device having limited power is described. A data streaming device receives streaming content from a network and provides the streaming content for display on a content display device. Data streaming device includes power supplies that receive power from the content display device. The power supplies use the power to operate components of data streaming device that process the streaming content. A measuring module measures the power provided to the data streaming device. When the power is insufficient, a controller generates an indication that there is insufficient power to operate the components of the data streaming device. The controller may also modify functionality of the components to operate using available power or disable a component of the data streaming device.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Roku, Inc.Inventors: Gregory Garner, Anthony Wood, Simon Martin, David Stern, Neil Edward Johnson

Patent number: 11936682Abstract: In an example embodiment, a deep learning algorithm is introduced that operates directly on a raw sequence of user activity in an online network. This allows the system to scalably leverage more of the available signal hidden in the data and stop adversarial attacks more efficiently than other machine-learned models. More particularly, each specific request path is translated into a standardized token that indicates the type of the request (e.g., profile view, search, login, etc.). This eliminates the need for human curation of features. Then, the standardized request paths are standardized to integers based on the frequency of that request path across all users. This allows information about how common a given type of request is to be provided to the machine-learned model. The integer array is the activity sequence that is fed into the deep learning algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: James R. Verbus, Beibei Wang
