  • Patent number: 11983221
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program product for generating tiered search index fields based on a divided group-based communication data corpus in a group-based communication platform are described herein. In some embodiments, the system provides for receiving a group-based communication data corpus, generating a retrieval score, and assigning each group-based communication data object associated with a retrieval score. Each group-based communication data object may meet or exceed a retrieval score threshold of a high retrieval probability corpus. Each group-based communication data object associated with a retrieval score below the retrieval score threshold may be assigned to a low retrieval probability corpus. High and a low retrieval probability search index fields may be generated and associated with the high and low retrieval probability corpus.

  • Publication number: 20230281664
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for serving advertisements based on partial queries. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request for advertisements that specifies a set of query suggestions. The query suggestions are ranked based, at least in part on a probability of each query suggestion being selected by a user that input the partial query. A proper subset of the query suggestions is selected and includes a highest ranked query suggestion based on the ranking and one or more query suggestions of the set of query suggestions that is at least one of a revision of the highest ranked query suggestion or refers to a same topic as the highest ranked query suggestion. One or more advertisements are identified for each query suggestion of the proper subset. Data specifying the identified advertisements are provided.

  • Patent number: 11727018
    Abstract: A social networking system provides a user with a feed of content items associated with other users connected to the user via the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system identifies additional content items for presentation to the user and generates an additional feed including the additional content items. The additional content items may be determined by identifying content items having various characteristics and scoring the content items based on the characteristics. Content items having at least a threshold score are identified as additional content items. Examples of characteristics of content items include users providing content items to the social networking system, locations associated with social networking system users, and interaction with content items by social networking system users. In some embodiments, the additional feed modifies presentation of the additional content items based on their associated scores.

  • Patent number: 11695721
    Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program product may be provided for updating a graph-based knowledge representation data structure using one or more conversation segments. Updating a graph-based knowledge representation data structure may include receiving a conversation segment. The conversation segment may comprise one or more group-based communication messages and one or more sending user identifiers of the one or more group-based communication messages. Updating a graph-based knowledge representation data structure may further include identifying the one or more sending user identifiers of each group-based communication message of the conversation segment. Updating a graph-based knowledge representation data structure may further include determining one or more user identifiers of the sending user identifiers that satisfy conversation participation criteria.

  • Publication number: 20160147810
    Abstract: A social networking system allows users to establish connections with other users to receive content provided to the social networking system by the other user. The social networking system may recommend an additional user to the user in response to the user establishing a connection with a target user. To recommend an additional user, the social networking system determines a relevance of the additional user to the target user relative to the relevance of other candidate users to the target user. The relevance may be based on a measure of similarity between an additional user and the target user, such as a covariance in the overlap of users connected to both the additional user and to the target user.

  • Patent number: 7222311
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided for post-layout optimization of an integrated circuit. In one instance, only local transformations accomplished by incremental changes to placement and routing are provided, so as to avoid the costly design iteration loop that requires re-synthesis, re-place and re-route. Optimization can be provided in multiple optimization phases each accomplishing a specified set of transformations. Static timing analysis is performed at the end of each set of local transformations to determine if further optimization steps are required. In one instance, the physical design is first scanned for mismatch between drivers and loads. Then, in a second optimization phase, “hot spots” in the physical design are identified for local transformation using a “bidirectional combinational total negative slack” (BCTNS) algorithm. In subsequent phases, optimization based on meeting setup times and hold times in a critical path are performed.
