Publication number: 20220391461Abstract: The present teaching relates to searching. In one example, a search query is received from a person. A plurality of search results are retrieved based on the search query. An intent of the person is estimated with respect to at least some of the plurality of search results. The estimated intent is what the person intends to do with respect to the at least some of the plurality of search results. The plurality of search results are provided based on the estimated intent of the person.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2022Publication date: December 8, 2022Inventors: Jonathan Paris, Reiner Kraft

Patent number: 11403352Abstract: One or more systems and/or methods for providing related content associated with a multi-touch gesture to a user are provided. A multi-touch gesture (e.g., a pinch-in gesture, a pinch-out gesture, etc.) may be received through a user interface of a client device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, television, virtual wall, etc.) associated with a user. The multi-touch gesture may be evaluated to identify an area of interest of the user interface (e.g., a portion of user interface containing content of interest to the user). The area of interest may be evaluated to identify context (e.g., keywords, phrases, associated content, etc.) associated with the area of interest. A search of content may be performed based upon the context to identify related content (e.g., news articles, wide-area network search results, local device search results, etc.) associated with the context. The related content may be provided to the user through the client device.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2018Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: YAHOO ASSETS LLCInventors: Jonathan Paris, Leili Baghaei Rad, Benoit Schillings, Yuhuan Tang

Patent number: 10310726Abstract: Users may interface with user interfaces populated with large sets of data items (e.g., contacts, files, photos, etc.), but may be unable to quickly and/or efficiently find a desired data item. Accordingly, as provided herein, a graphical user interface, populated with a set of data items, may be presented to a user of a client device. Sensor data may be received from a motion sensing component of the client device. The sensor data may indicate a motion of the client device. A motion rate of the motion may be determined. The set of data items may be visually traversed at a scroll rate derived from the motion rate (e.g., a faster motion may increase the scroll rate and a slower motion may decrease the scroll rate). In this way, the user may efficiently scroll through large sets of data items by panning, tilting, twisting, or otherwise moving the client device.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2015Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: Oath Inc.Inventors: Benoit Schillings, Jean-Baptiste Maurice Queru, Jonathan Paris, Roberto Ortiz
