Patent number: 11728907Abstract: Embodiments are provided for replacing media items in a queue of a playback device. An example implementation involves receiving, at the playback device, first data indicating an addition of a first media item to a queue. The playback device determines that the first media item is no longer accessible to the playback device at a later second time. The playback device initiates a query for a media item similar to the first media item and receives second data indicating that a second media item has replaced the first media item in the queue, the second media item being similar to the first media item. In response, the playback device initiates playback of the second media item on the playback device.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2022Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Sonos, Inc.Inventors: Paul Andrew Bates, Steven Beckhardt, Jonathon Reilly

Patent number: 11720920Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for providing content. Search results responsive to a query are identified including a first search result in a top set of search results, the first search result associated with a first entity. A first eligible content item is identified for presentation along with the search results, the first eligible content item associated with the first entity. A combined content item is identified that is a combination of the first search result and first eligible content item and is to be presented as a search result responsive to the query. The combined content item is augmented including: identifying entities related to the first entity, identifying content items that are associated with the related entities, selecting at least one identified content item, and using content from the selected content items to augment the combined content item.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Yunkai Zhou, Jennifer J.

Patent number: 11722742Abstract: A method and a graphic user interface for displaying digital media objects and dynamically calculating their quality indicators. A first digital media object is displayed on a first computing device. A first user provides one of predefined inputs corresponding either to a positive or a negative response to the first digital media object. The quality indicator of the first digital media object is increased if the response is positive and decreased if the response is negative. The amount of increase or decrease is calculated based on a coefficient value associated with the first user. Subsequent responses to the first digital media object from other users impact the quality indicator of the first digital media object and, also, impact the coefficient value of the first user. Updated coefficient value of the first user is used to calculate impact of subsequent responses of the first user to other digital media objects.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2019Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Alchephi LLCInventors: Deva Finger, Sawyer Keith Waugh

Patent number: 11715245Abstract: A method generates map visualizations with multiple map layers. A user selects a data source with geographic data. A device displays a data visualization user interface, including a schema information region with data fields, and shelf regions that defining characteristics for a data visualization. The user selects a first geographic data, and the user interface generates a map data visualization using coordinates associated with the first geographic data field. The visualization includes a first plurality of data marks in a first layer. The user selects a second geographic data field. In response, the user interface displays a new layer icon. Upon activation of the new layer icon by the second geographic data field, the user interface superimposes a second layer over the existing map data visualization to form an updated map data visualization. The second layer includes a second plurality of data marks corresponding to the second geographic data field.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2021Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Tableau Software, LLCInventors: Rodion Degtyar, Bryan Alexander Feddern, Steven Richard Hollasch, Raphael Hsieh, Lauren Lea Jackson, Dirk Karis, Vladimir Kondrashov, Ashwin Kumar, Jialin Le, John Michael Lounsbery, Kent Marten, Patrick Kenneth McKay, Jonathan D.

Patent number: 11709882Abstract: Managing an image storage space is provided. A number of processor units identifies a benchmark image in a similar images group. A number of other images not identified in the similar images group as the benchmark image is a set of similar images. The number of processor units creates an image mapping tree. The image mapping tree has a root block for the benchmark image and blocks arranged in a set of layers below the root block based on the set of similar images; the blocks represent portions of the benchmark image; and a plurality of lower blocks in the blocks in a lower layer correspond to subdivisions in an upper block in the blocks in an upper layer. The number of processor units stores a set of selected blocks in the set of similar images that have differences from a set of corresponding blocks in image mapping tree for the benchmark image.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2021Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Rong Fu, Wen Wang, Jian Dong Yin, Hao Sheng, Kang Zhang, Chuan Qing Yu

Patent number: 11699032Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for identifying a target value in a data set are presented. A request for a first target value in a data array may be received, wherein the request comprises first reference value. The data array may comprise a plurality of values and a plurality of value types included in one or more tables in a computer-implemented spreadsheet application. An index comprising a plurality of sorted reference numbers corresponding to a plurality of values in the data array may be generated based on the request. The index may be searched, and based at least on the search, the first reference value may be identified. In additional examples, the index may be cached and utilized to process additional target value requests that reference an overlapping range value with the first request.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2017Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Prashant Anand Shirolkar, George Randell Dong, Henry Nathan Shomber, Jeffrey James Duzak
