Patent number: 11366817Abstract: Technologies for scoring and ranking cohorts containing content items using a machine-learned model are provided. The disclosed techniques include a cross-cohort optimization system that stores, within memory, cohort definition criteria for each cohort of a plurality of cohorts. The optimization system, for a particular user, for each cohort, identifies a plurality of content items that belong to the specific cohort based upon the cohort definition criteria. Using a machine-learned model, the optimization system generates a score for the specific cohort with respect to the particular user's intentions. The optimization system generates a ranking for the plurality of cohorts based on the respective scores of each cohort. The optimization system causes the plurality of content items of each cohort to be displayed concurrently on a computing device of the particular user. Display order for the plurality of cohorts is based on the ranking determined for the plurality of cohorts.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2019Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Parag Agrawal, Aastha Jain, Yafei Wang, Ashwin Narasimha Murthy

Patent number: 11347706Abstract: A cryptographic system having a plurality of rotors or electronic equivalents using displacement tables. A rotor movement controller, in accordance with a rotor selection value, selectively moves one or more of the rotors or the electronic equivalent of the rotors for each data input value. Contiguous rotor selection values have a triangle or sawtooth shape. A key-driven displacement look-up table randomizes the selection values. The rotor wirings or displacement tables each have N displacement values. The N displacement values are one to N?1 inclusive once and N/2 twice and arranged in a sequence that forms a single loop. Additionally, the N displacement values may be arranged in a sequence that is self-reciprocal so that no change in the rotors or displacement tables is needed whether encrypting or decrypting except for selectively adding a factor of N/2 when indexing the displacement tables or setting the initial position of the rotors.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2015Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Inventor: Scott W.

Patent number: 11126839Abstract: A scanner scans a group of documents. For example, the documents can be a group of invoices. The documents are received and processed. Objects (e.g., a text object, such as a word) and their locations are identified in each of the documents. Occurrences of similar objects in the identified locations between the documents are determined. A document sorting algorithm is applied to generate a score for each of the documents. The score for each of the documents is generated based on a number of occurrences of similar objects between the documents. The generated score of each of the documents is used to identify a template document. The template document is then used to cluster the documents.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2014Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: DIGITECH SYSTEMS PRIVATE RESERVE, LLCInventor: Karim Ghessassi
