Patent number: 9798776Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for parsing search queries. In accordance with some embodiments, search records including character strings are retrieved, and search query templates are generated comprising sequences of categories corresponding to character substrings of the character strings. Also, in accordance with some embodiments, search queries are parsed into character substrings and matched with a search query template. The search query template may then be used to associate categories with the character substrings. A search engine may use the categories to focus or otherwise refine a search based on parsed search query.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2016Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: Mapquest, Inc.Inventors: Stephen Hess, Antony Pegg, Brian Quinion, Kevin Mayhew

Patent number: 9740767Abstract: Computerized systems and methods are provided for analyzing failed and successful search queries. In accordance with some embodiments, search records with character strings that are refinements of character strings of other search records are deemed related as belonging to a same user search. Minimum changed sections between character strings in related search records are determined. Correction pairs are created including the character sequences from the portions of the character strings containing the minimum changed sections. Frequencies of correction pairs in a pool of correction pairs are calculated, and the correction pairs appearing in the pool most frequently are stored in a correction log.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: Mapquest, Inc.Inventors: Brian Quinion, Stephen Hess, Antony Pegg

Patent number: 8490064Abstract: Metadata can be used for determining or selecting debug points to activate for server software. The metadata can be used for selecting or logically grouping the debug point without requiring the selecting of debug points based upon package boundaries. The metadata can be used by the system to produce a select set of the debug activation information. This debug activation information can be used by a management unit to activate debug points in the server software.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2005Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Sandeep Shrivastava, Rajendra Inamdar, Ryan LeCompte, R.
