Patent number: 10650005Abstract: A computing system is described that identifies, based on search histories associated with a group of computing devices for a particular context, a task performed by users of the group of computing devices for the particular context. The computing system determines a first degree of likelihood of the task being performed by the users of the group of computing devices for the particular context and determines a second degree of likelihood of the task being performed by the users of the group of computing devices for a broader context that includes the particular context and at least one other context. Responsive to determining that the first degree of likelihood exceeds the second degree of likelihood by a threshold amount, and that a current context of a particular computing device corresponds to the particular context, the computing system transmits, to the particular computing device, information for completing the task for the particular context.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2018Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Yew Jin Lim, James Kunz, Joseph Garrett Linn, Charles Jordan Gilliland, David Faden, Sanjit Jhala

Patent number: 10423678Abstract: A method of processing search queries, performed by a search server system, includes receiving, from a client system, a search query and an indicia of an application language associated with an application used at the client system to perform the search query. The search server system responds by identifying a first language and a first probability factor that specifies a likelihood that the search query is in the first language. In response to satisfaction of filter criteria, comprising a determination that the first language corresponds to the application language, the search server system translates the search query to a translated search query in a second language distinct from the application language, obtains search results for the translated search query, and conveys to the client system at least a subset of the search results for the translated search query.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2017Date of Patent: September 24, 2019Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Charles Jordan Gilliland, Sung-Jung Cho, Maureen Heymans

Patent number: 8643831Abstract: A system for measuring movement of an object includes a source of light for emitting a beam; an object for receiving the beam from the source and reflecting the beam; and a reflective optic for receiving the beam reflected from the object and again reflecting the beam at a first angle. The system also includes a receiver for receiving the reflected beam from the reflective optic. When the object moves in distance, the reflective optic reflects the beam at a second angle. The reflective optic may be replaced by an equivalent refractive optic(s). The receiver measures movement of the object, based on a difference between the first angle and the second angle. The reflective optic may include a cylindrical reflective optic, or a spherical reflective optic. The refractive optic(s) may include a plano hemispheric refractive optic, or a meniscus refractive optic. The receiver may include a quad-cell imaging system, or a focal plane array (FPA). The source of light may include a laser, or any collimated beam source.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2010Date of Patent: February 4, 2014Assignee: Exelis, Inc.Inventors: Donald David Gregory, Sheldon David Stokes, David Charles Jordan
