The content management system matches the detected text to at least part of the at least the portion of the meeting transcript. The content management system provides the at least part of the at least the portion of the meeting transcript to the user as a suggested subsequent text.

Abstract: A client application sends an application programming interface call to an interface of a content management system. The call specifies one or more content item search criteria. Sending the call causes the content management system to perform a lookup in a content item index to identify at least one content item that satisfies the one or more content item search criteria. Based on sending the call, the client application receives from the content management system a suggestion to attach the at least one content item to a text being displayed by at the computing system.

Abstract: A computing system generates a default view of content items associated with a user account. The default view is representative of an underlying hierarchical structure of the content items associated with the user account. The computing system receives a request to transition from the default view to a modified view of the content items. The computing system ranks the content items based on a predicted likelihood of the user interacting with the particular content item. The computing system identifies the subset of content items for the modified view based on the ranking. The computing system generates the modified view based on the identified subset of the content items. The modified view maintains the underlying hierarchical structure of the content items associated with the user account. The computing system provides the modified view to the user associated with the user account for display.

Abstract: The present technology is directed to providing a multi-root architecture for managing devices associated with their own root namespaces. The system can include backing up multiple computing devices to a single user account such that the content items from each computing device are stored in their own respective root namespace at the user account. With each user account having multiple root namespaces, the system can identify which root namespace is receiving changes, identify which changes are necessary to synchronize the system, and then communicate those changes to the content management system. This process is facilitated by running a synchronization engine for each root namespace, thereby controlling synchronization for each root namespace. Each synchronization engine is able to retain its own parameters of operation, which provides the ability to tailor synchronization modes on each synchronization engine.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that dynamically capture, organize, and utilize digital media clips. For example, in one or more implementations, the disclosed systems can capture and generate digital media clips of content items that include both content metadata of the content items as well as contextual metadata of contextual signals surrounding the content item. Additionally, in some implementations, the disclosed systems analyze contextual metadata to search, retrieve, discover, and organize new and existing digital media clips. Further, in various implementations, the disclosed systems facilitate generating digital media clip libraries as well as the creation of digital media collections, where different types of digital media clips can be combined in a cohesive interactive graphical user interface.

Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques encompass using distinct machine learning sub-models to score respective types of candidate content for the purpose of providing personalized content suggestions to end-users of a content management system. The relevancy scores generated by the distinct sub-models are mapped to expected end-user interaction scores of the candidate content scored. Content suggestions are provided at end-users' computing devices where the suggested content is selected from the candidate content based on the expected end-user interaction scores of the candidate content. For each distinct sub-model, a normalizing mapping function is solved using an optimizer that maps the relevancy scores generated by the sub-model for the candidate content to expected end-user interaction scores for the candidate content. The expected end-user interaction scores are comparable across the distinct sub-models and can be used to rank content suggestions across the distinct sub-models.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for capturing and displaying partial motion in VAR scenes. VAR scenes can include a plurality of images combined and oriented over any suitable geometry. Although VAR scenes may provide an immersive view of a static scene, current systems do not generally support VAR scenes that include dynamic content (e.g., content that varies over time). Embodiments of the present invention can capture, generate, and/or share VAR scenes. This immersive, yet static, view of the VAR scene lacks dynamic content (e.g., content which varies over time). Embodiments of the present invention can efficiently add dynamic content to the VAR scene, allowing VAR scenes including dynamic content to be uploaded, shared, or otherwise transmitted without prohibitive resource requirements. Dynamic content can be captured by device and combined with a preexisting or simultaneously captured VAR scene, and the dynamic content may be played back upon selection.
