Patent number: 10791363Abstract: An approach is provided for presenting service guides. A head-end platform generates a service guide fragment and inserts a tag into the service guide fragment to generate a modified service guide fragment. The head-end platform then causes, at least in part, transmission of the modified service guide fragment. A user equipment receives the service guide fragment and detects the tag in the service guide fragment. The user equipment then determines a transformation type based, at least in part, on the tag. The user equipment causes, at least in part, performing of the transformation and output of a transformed presentation.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2018Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: Conversant Wireless Licensing S.a.r.l.Inventors: Toni Juhani Paila, Ilkka Antero Oksanen

Patent number: 10776563Abstract: Systems and methods to improve a technological process for signing documents are described. The system accesses a portable document format (PDF) file and a first signature tag marker element (STME) to parse the PDF to generate logical text block elements (LTBE). The LTBEs describe original document elements in the PDF including a first LTBE. The system sorts each LTBE against the first STME to pair the first LTBE with the first STME based on proximity. The system generates markup language information (MLI) for utilization at the client device (CD) for rendering a responsive markup language image (RMLI) in a responsive format and communicates the MLI to a CD for rendering the RMLI on the CD. The system receives the signing information from the CD causing the signing information to be associated with the first signature tag marker identifier and communicates the PDF and the signing information to the CD.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2019Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: DocuSign, Inc.Inventors: Lauren Hayslett, Stephen Parish

Patent number: 10771863Abstract: The described methods, systems, and computer program products enable media composition editors to tag compositional objects with editorial rendition rules that specify how rendering decisions are to be made and how source media assets are to be selected and processed to generate an output rendering of a media composition that adheres to the editor's rendition-related choices. The editorially-specified rendition rules include spatial-type rules, temporal-type rules, and color-type rules, and generally pertain to the spatial, temporal, and color ranges and resolutions to be included within a rendition. When a rendition of a media composition is to be generated, a rendition engine interprets and applies the editorial rendition rules to generate and output the rendition in accordance with rendition parameters supplied to the rendition engine by a rendition profile, and, in some cases, by the media composition and the source media assets.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2018Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: Avid Technology, Inc.Inventor: Shailendra Mathur

Patent number: 10740541Abstract: Representative embodiments disclose mechanisms to validate statements made as part of a document creation or editing process. As the user edits or creates a document using a document creation/editing application, statements made in the document can be submitted to a validation service in a proactive or reactive manner. The statement validation service receives the statement, resolves any coreferences using a coreference resolution process. Once coreferences in the statement have been resolved and replaced, entities are resolved using an entity resolution process. Predicates are then resolved using a predicate resolution process. Entity-predicate pairs are then used to traverse a knowledge graph to extract information relevant to the statement. Suggested corrections are created from the extracted information and presented to the user via the document creation/editing application.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2018Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Deepak Zambre, Rohit Paravastu, Silviu-Petru Cucerzan, Rajeev Kumar, Srivatsava Daruru

Patent number: 10719571Abstract: Content rendered for display on a first client device can be referenced for similar pages to be displayed on other client devices such that similar content does not need to be re-rendered. Each client can have a respective virtual rendering engine on a host device, and the content rendered by those virtual engines can be mapped and used to generate content trees for different pages or other groupings of content. When a new page is to be rendered, the tiles or other portions matching previously-rendered tiles can be referenced, so that only new or unique portions need to be rendered for a particular page. The content can come from multiple locations as rendered by multiple virtual clients, such that for many clients the respective virtual engine may not render any content but instead reference rendered content from one or more locations as determined according to the page tree.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2018Date of Patent: July 21, 2020Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventor: Jari Juhani Karppanen

Patent number: 10671805Abstract: A system, a computer program, and a computerized method for the processing and completion of form documents. A form processing engine receives the form from the user. The form processing engine captures and stores an image of the form and extracts field metadata from the form, specifically each field on the form by name, type, and position. A form completion engine then renders the captured image of the form and generates a field overlay. The form completion engine populates the field overlay with user data as retrieved from a user information data store. The form completion engine may add additional objects and events to the form and invite the user to provide additional information. Completion of form documents is streamlined and largely or completely automated.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2015Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: HRB Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Robert Jefferson Pennington, Ralph Bryan Howell

Patent number: 10664649Abstract: Systems and methods for in-context editing of web pages in which the production format of a web page is visible while the web page is being edited, and the editable image is not distorted by the editing tools. In one embodiment, a system includes a server computer, a client computer and a transmission channel coupled between them. The server computer receives a request for a web page from the client computer and responsively transmits a web page containing in-context editing tools to the client computer. The client computer operate alternately in a first mode in which the in-context editing tools are superimposed on a web page image, or a second mode in which the web page image is displayed, but the in-context editing tools are hidden. The tools overlay in the first mode does not alter the production format of the web page image as displayed in the second mode.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2019Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: OPEN TEXT SA ULCInventors: Bertrand G.
