Patent number: 12008811Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a medium storing a program and method for machine-learning based selection of a representative video frame. The program and method provide for receiving a set of video frames; determining a first subset of frames by removing frames outside of an image quality threshold; determining a second subset by removing frames outside of an image stillness threshold; computing feature data for each frame in the second subset; providing, for each frame in the second subset, the feature data to a machine learning model (MLM), the MLM being configured to output a score for each frame in the second subset of frames based on the feature data, the MLM having been trained with a first set of images labeled based on aesthetics, and with a second set of images labeled based on image quality; and selecting a frame based on output scores.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2021Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: SNAP INC.Inventors: Kavya Venkata Kota Kopparapu, Benjamin Dodson, Francesc Xavier Drudis Rius, Angus Kong, Richard Leider, Jian Ren, Sergey Tulyakov, Jiayao Yu

Patent number: 11948220Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include dynamically selecting transportation options to present to a transportation requestor device based on current transportation network conditions and transportation requestor device history. In some embodiments, transportation network may have many different ways of arranging a transportation requestor's trip, such as private rides, shared rides, immediate rides, and delayed rides. In some examples, the requestor's choice of transportation option may have an impact on the transportation network. In anticipation of or in response to a transportation request, the method may determine which transportation options will better benefit the transportation network and determine which transportation options to display to the requestor and/or the prominence with which the transportation products are displayed. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Lyft, Inc.Inventors: Abhinav Amrut Vora, Hao Yu Liu, Benjamin Han, Julia Yu, Le Guan, Xiaoyuan Xu, Mayank Gulati, Charles Parker Spielman, Chirag Chhagan Chheda, David Chouinard

Publication number: 20220020450Abstract: A condition can be diagnosed based on a symptom experienced by a subject and based on a biological sample including nucleic acids. Based on the symptom, a first set of the nucleic acids can be preselected for analysis. A first plurality of the nucleic acids of the first set that are present in the first biological sample can be captured. For each of the captured nucleic acids of the first plurality, an amount of that captured nucleic acid that is present in the first biological sample can be quantified and sequenced and based on the sequence of that captured nucleic acid, an origin of that captured nucleic acid can be identified. An indication can be output of the quantified amount and the identified origin of at least one captured nucleic acid that is present in the first biological sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2021Publication date: January 20, 2022Inventors: Benjamin YU, Ahmed GHOURI, Gary RAYNER, Raghu SUGUVANAM, Zoltan PAPP

Patent number: 8635691Abstract: A method and system of scanning a client for sensitive data. A server may receive, from the client, a request to scan the data stored in the data storage of the client for sensitive data. In response to receiving the request, the server may provide the client with a scanner, which causes the client to carry out functions including: (a) scanning the data stored in data storage to identify sensitive data; (b) collecting data based on the identified sensitive data; and (c) reporting the collected data. The server may then receive the collected data from the client and responsively analyze the data. The server may also provide feedback about the identified sensitive data to the client or another server.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2008Date of Patent: January 21, 2014Assignee: 403 Labs, LLCInventors: D J Vogel, Benjamin Yu, John Paul Moon

Patent number: 6954121Abstract: An apparatus such as a thin film resonator has a bottom electrode, a top electrode, and a composite layer between the two electrodes. The composite layer includes a piezoelectric (PZ) layer having a first coupling coefficient and a coupling coefficient control (CCC) layer having a second coupling coefficient. By varying the relative thicknesses of the PZ layer and the CCC layer during the manufacturing process, the coupling coefficient of the resonator can be established (to any value between the first coupling coefficient and the second coupling coefficient) with minimal impact on resonant frequency. Further, it is relatively less difficult to fabricate the PZ layer and the CCC layer having the desired coupling coefficient (as a combination of the first coupling coefficient and the second coupling coefficient) compared to the difficulties of fabrication of a uniform PZ layer having the desired coupling coefficient.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2003Date of Patent: October 11, 2005Assignee: Agilent Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Paul D.
