Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in a content system supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data across platforms, which data 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 determine a breaking news story and track breaking developments in such story. The present disclosure can construct a breaking news storyline from the developments in the detected breaking news story, whereby a user can view the storyline as individual breaking news messages or as a complete timeline of events displayed on a provided page.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may be used to gather, rank, categorize, and perform other processing of various types of content. In some embodiments, content items such as text, images, video, and other content are received from a variety of different sources and are processed to generate an article containing selected content items. While there may be hundreds or thousands of separate articles and stories regarding a particular topic, embodiments of the present disclosure help provide users with a single concise article that contains high-quality content items selected from among a potentially vast number of disparate sources.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for transmitting, by a processor to a client device, a software application (e.g., a mobile app or a web page) configured to load, by a computer processor of the client device, a graphical user interface (GUI), the GUI including a header space and a content display space. The software application is further configured to display, by the computer processor, the GUI in a first frame, detect, by the computer processor, user interaction with content displayed in the content display space of the GUI, compare, by the computer processor, the user interaction with a set of stored user interactions, and, based on the comparing, change, by the computer processor, the header space in the GUI in the first frame.

Abstract: Provided is a device for detecting thickness of a brake pad, comprising a support body, a conducting wire or a resistor body, further comprising a conducting wire provided outside the support body, and possibly further comprising a resistor, some or all of the conducting wire, resistor body, and resistor are connected to form a circuit in a certain structure, and the conducting wire or the resistor body on the support body is rubbed together with the brake pad within a certain thickness range of the brake pad. By the present invention, the range of the thickness dimension of the brake pad can be determined, or the thickness dimension of the brake pad can be continuously reflected within a certain range.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in a content system supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data across platforms, which data 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 provide a real-time (or near real-time) push notification delivery framework. The disclosed systems and methods enable the delivery of personalized, location and/or temporally sensitive breaking news to users' devices. The disclosed systems and methods leverage the explosion of social data, expert knowledge and user feedback, all available on-line, to deliver breaking (or trending) news stories to users in a personalized, location and/or temporally sensitive manner.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may be utilized to analyze a content item comprising text to identify: a quote, a named entity that is the source of the quote (e.g., a person or organization such as a company), and identification information for the named entity (such as a title of the person giving the quote). Quotes may also be ranked to determine, for example, the best quotes to include in an article.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for content object optimization. The method includes selecting an object user; obtaining content objects; determining a ranking of the content objects; determining a rotation value; presenting the content objects based on the ranking and rotation value; obtaining feedback associated with the content objects, the feedback obtained at least partially from one or more remote user systems over a communication network; determining empirical scores for the content objects; obtaining behavioral data of an observer user; determining behavioral scores for at least one of the content objects based on the behavioral data; determining a composite score for the at least one of the content objects based on empirical and behavioral scores; updating the ranking based on the composite score(s); presenting at least one of the content objects to the observer user based on the updated ranking.
