    Abstract: A system and method for extrapolating a set of specific representational identifiers that are represented or covered by a generic representational identifier found in a target document. Queries are constructed and performed on a corpus of source documents in which members of the extrapolated set of specific representational identifiers are compared to a database of representational data. By matching representational data in this way, any overlap between the generic representational data and specific instances of the generic representational identifier within the source documents is determined. In a more specific implementation, the system and method reduces the scope of the generic representational identifier such that the reduced scope generic representational identifier encompasses only novel specific representational identifiers.

A seed enricher module can then fetch additional information for each of the collected seeds from other different web-based sources and generate an enriched company seed for each collected seed. The enriched company seeds can then be automatically clustered into different clusters that each represent a particular company. A particular value for each attribute of each cluster that is determined to have the highest score can then be selected for inclusion in a corresponding company profile for that cluster.

  • Patent number: 11379443
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for detecting outliers on a series of data. A device receives a plurality of data points and adds a received data point to a first window of data comprising at least a predetermined number of received data points from the plurality of data points, responsive to detecting that the received data point is not an outlier from the first window of data. The device detects that one or more next data points of the received plurality of data points are outliers from the first window of data and determines that a count of the one or more next data points that are outliers exceeds a predetermined threshold. In response, the device establishes a replacement window of data.

  • Patent number: 11372946
    Abstract: This document describes a digital component deduplication system for generating packetized data with encryption tokens for transmittal over one or more packetized networks. A packetized data search determines that an encryption token is included with the packetized data. The encryption token includes keyed data representing a first digital component. The packetized data search engine searches the keyed database to identify contents, in the keyed database, of one or more entries that includes the keyed data representing the first digital component. A list of candidate digital components is generated. For candidate digital components associated with a data interface for requesting an eligibility value from a second client device associated with the candidate digital component, a security server generates, using the data interface, additional packetized data comprising i) a request for the eligibility value from the second client device, and ii) the encryption token.

  • Patent number: 11346672
    Abstract: A method managing a generated route for multiple modes of transportation includes displaying guidance for a generated route based on a travel itinerary between an origin location and a destination location, wherein the generated route includes at least one mode of transportation alteration. The method receives user data associated with a user traveling at a specific point along the generated route. The method generates a confidence score for the user traveling along generated route based on the received user data. Responsive to determining the confidence score is below a confidence level threshold, the method modifies the generated route based on an analysis of the generated route at the specific point, wherein the modified route causes the confidence score to increase above the confidence level threshold. The method displays guidance for the modified route.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to automated notification generation, where a generated notification comprises a live representation of a content update that is linked and synchronized with a distributed collaborative canvas (or other source content) comprising the content portion which is being updated. A non-limiting example of a content update is a message notification, such as an at-mention (@mention), that is included inline within a content portion. Other triggers for automated notification generation are also described. Generation of an exemplary notification comprises a contextual relevance analysis that not only selects, for a recipient of the message notification, a specific host application/service endpoint to present the notification in but also determines how/what specific content to present inline within the selected host application/service endpoint.
