  • Patent number: 11960695
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates use of an application on an electronic device. During operation, the system obtains a first metadata definition containing a mapping of view components in a user interface of the application to a set of attribute-specific types associated with an attribute of the electronic device, and a second metadata definition containing a set of rules for binding the attribute-specific types to a set of platform-specific user-interface elements for a platform of the electronic device. Next, the system generates a view for display in the user interface by applying, based on the attribute and the platform, the first and second metadata definitions to content describing the view to select one or more platform-specific user-interface elements for rendering one or more of the view components in the content. The system then instantiates the platform-specific user-interface element(s) to render the view component(s).

  • Patent number: 11954577
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system having computer-executable instructions stored in a memory for processing user behavior features by neural networks to identify user segments. The method includes receiving user datasets from a database along with respective user identifiers, retention labels, static user features and interactive user features associated with an online product during a time period. A first neural network processes the interactive user features to generate a time distributed concatenation representation. A second neural network is configured to generate a vector by embedding the time distributed concatenation representation and the static user features through an embedding layer. The second neural network is configured to process the vector through a plurality of layers. A cluster model is used to determine user segments based on values extracted from nodes of a second to last layer of the second neural network.

  • Patent number: 11954102
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for executing structured query language queries having a schema associated therewith against an application programming interface using natural language. The schema can be chunked such that embeddings of the resulting chunks are stored in a vector store. Schemas (or subschemas) generated using on or more chunks of the vector store may be provided to a large language model along with a NL query to generate a structured query language query which may be executed against the application programming interface. This allows large language models to produce structured query language queries, such as GraphQL queries even if a GraphQL schema is too large to be provided to the model as context. Aspects disclosed herein also provide techniques for client code generation and client software development kit generation.

  • Patent number: 11947521
    Abstract: A processor may identify a plurality of data sets subject to upcoming update processing in a next update cycle. For each of the plurality of data sets, the processor may determine a probability that data included in the data set has changed since a most recent update processing. The processor may exclude a first subset of the plurality of data sets having respective probabilities below a threshold value from the upcoming update processing until the respective probabilities are determined again in a subsequent update cycle. The processor may perform the upcoming update processing on the plurality of the data sets not included in the first subset, where the upcoming update processing may include obtaining updated data from at least one external data source.

  • Patent number: 11941072
    Abstract: A method and system that proactively generate alerts for updating a scraping script to avoid scraping script errors. A predetermined number of webpages targeted by the scraping script are randomly sampled. The scraping script is appended to each webpage in the sample. A structured list of text fragments across the webpages with the appended script is generated. At predetermined time intervals, a fresh set of webpages is sampled, the scraping script is appended to the webpages, and a new structured list is generated. If the new structured list and the previous structured list do not match, the webpages may have been changed and the scraping script may have to be updated. An alert is generated indicating that such update is required and may include a location of the mismatch. Therefore, scraping script errors are proactively detected and can be rectified before an actual error occurs and propagates.

  • Publication number: 20240095777
    Abstract: In one or more embodiments, transaction data between multiple users and multiple merchants is retrieved. The retrieved transaction data is aggregated for each of the multiple users and each of the multiple merchants. The aggregated data may then be normalized. An example normalization process may include income normalization, where a user's total transaction amount at a particular merchant is normalized by the user's income. Other forms of normalization may also be employed. Using the normalized data, user-merchant affinity may be predicted based on collaborative filtering models, cascading tree models, and or cosine similarity models. A recommendation engine may provide personalized advertisements based on the predicted affinity. Because of the normalization of the data, the affinity and therefore the recommendation is less biased toward larger merchants.

  • Patent number: 11934778
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for providing sentiment analysis of content. In order to determine the overall sentiment of content, a request is received by a sentiment analyzer, which then identifies a content identification number and retrieves comments associated with the content identification number. The sentiment analyzer pre-processes the comments, which includes removing all personal identifying information from the comments. The sentiment analyzer sends the pre-processed comments to a natural language processing service, and in turn, receives sentiment indications corresponding to the comments provided. Based on the sentiment scores, the sentiment analyzer generates a sentiment analysis and displays the sentiment analysis in the graphical user interface generated by the sentiment analyzer.

  • Patent number: 11934439
    Abstract: Methods, computer systems and computer program product are provided for retrieving contextually relevant documents in near real time. When text data it's received from an application, the text data is processed through a text segmentation model to generate a set of documents. Each document corresponds to a segment of the text data. A first vector representation is generated for a first document of the set of documents. A machine learning process compares the first vector representation and a set of vector representations for a set of documents within a data repository to determine a subset of the documents. A composite rank is generated for each respective document of the subset. The subset of documents is then presented through an interface, sorted according to the respective composite ranks.
