Patent number: 11797622Abstract: In one embodiment, a method performed by a client device includes receiving, at the client device, an input of n-grams, and identifying media items from a media-item index. This media-item index may index media items stored by the client device and respective keywords associated with each media item, and each media item may be identified based on one or more of its associated keywords matching at least one of the n-grams of the input. An auto-suggestion with the identified media items may then be presented responsive to the input.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2021Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Meta Platforms, Inc.Inventor: Ariel Benjamin Evnine

Patent number: 11757813Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for increasing messaging activity in a messaging system. Using the interactions of users with each other and/or with the messaging system, the disclosed systems and methods can predict how likely a pairing of two or more users are to engage in a highly active messaging thread. Based on this prediction, the disclosed methods and systems can, for example, more effectively organize contact lists and conduct promotional efforts associated with messaging features.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2020Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Meta Platforms, Inc.Inventors: Ariel Benjamin Evnine, Lada Ariana Adamic, Peter Henry Martinazzi, Ojus Abhimanyu Patil

Patent number: 10769548Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes sending, through a communications network, several volumes of notifications corresponding to a first notification type to multiple users and several volumes of notifications corresponding to a second notification type to multiple users. The method further determines visitation impacts of the volumes of notifications of the first and second notification types and trains a machine-learning model based on the visitation impacts. The machine-learning model generates an assessment of a likelihood of interaction by a recipient user with each of the notifications.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2016Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Aleksandar Ilic, Ariel Benjamin Evnine, Ashwin Murthy, Yiyu Li, Konstantine Oleksiyovich Kolomoyskyy, Florin Ratiu

Patent number: 10671615Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to techniques for determining social networking or messaging user affinity and engagement coefficients (e.g., a measure of the connectedness between two people in a network). The described techniques are particularly well-suited to cases in which only limited information is available, such as when a new user joins a network and only the user's contacts list is available. The available information may be used to determine a group of existing users to which the new user is connected. Some embodiments relate to calculating scores among these existing users in order to infer an affinity for the new user to the existing users. Other embodiments involve calculating bilateral scores that reflect a degree of mutual affinity between two users.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2016Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: FACEBOOK, INC.Inventors: Ariel Benjamin Evnine, Zeev Rosenstein, Han Gyul Lee, Aman Dhesi

Patent number: 10606848Abstract: Techniques for device configuration using messaging history information are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a contact list component operative to determine a promotion contact list for the user account; a predicted interest component operative to determine a predicted communication interest for each contact on a promotion contact list; a predicted activity component operative to determine a user predicted likelihood of future activeness on the communication system; determine a contact predicted likelihood of future activeness on the communication system for each contact; and a contact ranking component operative to determine the ranking weight for each contact based on the predicted communication interest for each contact on the promotion contact list, the user predicted likelihood of future activeness on the communication system, and the contact predicted likelihood of future activeness on the communication system for each contact on the promotion contact list.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2016Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: FACEBOOK, INC.Inventors: Brian Kimball, Kunal Nikhil Modi, Jonathan David Perlow, Peter Henry Martinazzi, Ariel Benjamin Evnine
