Patent number: 11709220Abstract: A network system uses Wi-Fi signals or other types of short-range transmissions to determine pickup locations for users receiving services provided via the network system. The network system builds a database of search records mapping pickup locations to signatures of short-range transmission detected by users' client devices when they searched for the pickup locations. By comparing a signature detected by a given user's client device to the signatures in the database, the network system can check for similarities between the short-range transmissions. Responsive to finding a match, the network system predicts that the given user is likely to select a similar pickup location as other users whose client devices detected the signatures corresponding to the match. Accordingly, by leveraging the database, the network system can predict pickup locations without requiring the given user to input a search for a pickup location.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2020Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Anson Chu, Brandon Iles, Dinesh Ramasamy, Juthika Kiran Dabholkar, Upamanyu Madhow, William J. Salisbury, Brent Hamby

Patent number: 11379502Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving geographic coordinates for a location, determining a road segment associated with the location based on the geographic coordinates for the location, and determining a plurality of places associated with the road segment associated with the location. The systems and methods further provide for extracting visual data for each of the plurality of places, generating a plurality of feature values based on the visual data for each of the plurality of places, and analyzing the plurality of feature values to generate a visibility score for each of the plurality of places.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2018Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Kapil Gupta, Jeremy Hintz, Susmit Biswas, Houtan Shirani-Mehr, Moustafa Elshikh, Sai Bhuvan Teja Balla, Roberto Fonti, Juthika Kiran Dabholkar

Patent number: 10708708Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving geographic coordinates for a location, generating a plurality of candidate places located within a predetermined distance from the location based on the geographic coordinates of the location, and extracting a plurality of features from each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places. The systems and methods are further provided for generating a place score for each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places using the plurality of features for each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places, determining the best candidate place based on the place score for each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places, and providing a place name associated with the best candidate place.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2018Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Roberto Fonti, Juthika Kiran Dabholkar, Jeremy Hintz, Kapil Gupta
