Abstract: A method of identifying and presenting accounts and postings of a social media system may include: retrieving, via at least one communication interface of the social media system, account information for a plurality of social media accounts; classifying, based on the retrieved account information, the plurality of social media accounts according to account type; ranking, based on the retrieved account information, the plurality of social media accounts according to perceived importance or influence; storing, in an account database, a representation of a subset of the plurality of social media accounts having a ranking greater than a predetermined threshold; retrieving, via the at least one API, postings of the stored social media accounts; and generating, for display on a user system, a user interface to present the retrieved social media postings for the stored accounts organized according to at least one of: account type, or ranking.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for assisting with legal research and for aiding in the discovery of information and documents relevant to a user's research focus or input text. The inventive systems receive identifications of relevant documents explicitly or implicitly from a user's research session or input text and, based on issues relevant to those documents, texts and other connections to those documents and texts, recommends similar or helpful documents to the user for their consideration. Recommendations may be ranked and filtered.

Abstract: A circuit for monitoring an optical receiver or transceiver, architectures, circuits, and systems including the same, and a method for monitoring received optical power are disclosed. The receiver monitoring circuit comprises an avalanche photodiode (APD), a microprocessor, and first and second transresistance amplifiers. The microprocessor is configured to supply bias voltage to the APD. Photocurrent produced by the APD is supplied to the first and second transresistance amplifiers, and then the microprocessor captures optical power from the voltage signal of the first and second transresistance amplifiers.
