Patent number: 11526569Abstract: Aspects of the technology evaluate places that are familiar to a given user in order to provide contextualized location information about other places of interest. This may include evaluating the actual number of visits by the given user to one or more locations in a given geographical area. For instance, places that have been visited a sufficient number of times within a particular timeframe are identified as personal landmarks for that user. Thus, when the user searches for a specific place or otherwise requests results that fit a query, the system can use the personalized landmark information to help rank search results and to provide location cues to aid the user to quickly and efficiently arrive at the location of the search result. Personal landmarks are necessarily familiar to the user, and thus can reduce the number of turn-by-turn directions or simplify the graphical interface of the client device.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2018Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Haroon Baig, Ankit Gupta

Patent number: 11526761Abstract: Bounding box quantization can reduce the quantity of bits utilized to express numerical values prior to the multiplication of matrices comprised of such numerical values, thereby reducing both memory consumption and processor utilization. Stochastic rounding can provide sufficient precision to enable the storage of weight values in reduced-precision formats without having to separately store weight values in a full-precision format. Alternatively, other rounding mechanisms, such as round to nearest, can be utilized to exchange weight values in reduced-precision formats, while also storing weight values in full-precision formats for subsequent updating. To facilitate conversion, reduced-precision formats such as brain floating-point format can be utilized.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2019Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Taesik Na, Daniel Lo, Haishan Zhu, Eric Sen Chung
