Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods automatically generate and provide an interactive rich set of personalized query suggestions within a unified framework. The disclosed systems and methods are able to integrate attributes associated with message data and metadata by transforming such attributes into facets that are combined with term suggestions and presented to the user in a unified manner. The instant disclosure provides an interactive search suggestion mechanism that narrows the search as the user interacts with the dynamically generated and provided suggestions.

Abstract: Entity profile information is presented to a user of a computing device. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving a communication associated with a first entity; in response to receiving the communication, creating or updating, by at least one processor, a first entity profile, wherein the first entity profile is for display to the user on the computing device; and storing a plurality of entity profiles for entities, the entity profiles including the first entity profile.

Abstract: Systems and methods to extract a string from a communication. A method includes: receiving a communication comprising a plurality of strings; assigning a score to each of the strings, wherein the score assigned to each of the strings corresponds to a frequency of usage of the respective string for a first function relative to an overall frequency of usage of the respective string; determining a respective total sum for each of a plurality of sequences in the communication, the respective total sum determined as a sum of the scores for each string in the respective sequence; and extracting a first sequence of the sequences from the communication based on the total sum for the first sequence. In one embodiment, the total sum includes an additional score for each of a starting word and an ending word of the first word sequence, wherein each respective additional score is associated with a probability that the starting (or ending) word is used as the first (or last word) of an address.

Abstract: Systems and methods to store data obtained from observations and to determine a correspondence of certain data to a particular person. In one approach, a method includes: receiving or making a plurality of observations for a person (e.g., data extracted from e-mails sent to the person); storing the observations in a repository (e.g., a database on a server); and determining whether data in a first observation of the observations corresponds to the person, wherein the determining is based on the plurality of observations.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for editing aggregated data based on edit requests that are received. An edit file is updated to include a newly-received edit. The edit file includes anchor points that each point to one of a plurality of aggregate data objects. The anchor points are used to determine one of the objects to which the edit file corresponds. The edit file is then applied to update data in this object including making the new edit.

Abstract: Relevant messages, or “hero results”, which are not ranked at the uppermost part of a time-based listing of search results are identified and such hero results can be displayed apart from the time-based listing of search results. A user can be provided with messages in a time-based presentation as well as messages in a relevance-based presentation. The user can be presented with the most relevant messages from a set of message generated from a search query, even where the most relevant messages are not the most recent ones.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods automatically generate and provide an interactive rich set of personalized query suggestions within a unified framework. The disclosed systems and methods are able to integrate attributes associated with message data and metadata by transforming such attributes into facets that are combined with term suggestions and presented to the user in a unified manner. The instant disclosure provides an interactive search suggestion mechanism that narrows the search as the user interacts with the dynamically generated and provided suggestions.
