Patent number: 11086521Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for managing processing, memory, storage, network, and cloud computing to significantly improve the efficiency and performance of processing nodes. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention are directed to an instruction set of an object memory fabric. This object memory fabric instruction set can be used to provide a unique instruction model based on triggers defined in metadata of the memory objects. This model represents a dynamic dataflow method of execution in which processes are performed based on actual dependencies of the memory objects. This provides a high degree of memory and execution parallelism which in turn provides tolerance of variations in access delays between memory objects. In this model, sequences of instructions are executed and managed based on data access. These sequences can be of arbitrary length but short sequences are more efficient and provide greater parallelism.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2016Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: Ultrata, LLCInventors: Steven J. Frank, Larry Reback

Patent number: 11089371Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for estimating audience member engagement with content, or distinguishing between users consuming content and users who have become distracted or have left. User presence or attention may be estimated from user interactions with or skipping of content, with the user interactions either compared to high quality engagement data from small audience measurement panels, or extrapolated based on a temporal-engagement curve. An attention gap may be estimated, representing users that were not present for or not engaged with or paying attention to a presentation of content at a client device. This allows the measurement system to distinguish between users who consumed and potentially enjoyed the content, and users who did not, even as client devices of both sets of users receive and present the content items.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2019Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Eyal Oren, Farzan Rohani

Patent number: 11087023Abstract: Techniques are described herein for assembling/evaluating automated assistant responses for privacy concerns. In various implementations, a free-form natural language input may be received from a first user and may include a request for information pertaining to a second user. Multiple data sources may be identified that are accessible by an automated assistant to retrieve data associated with the second user. The multiple data sources may collectively include sufficient data to formulate a natural language response to the request. Respective privacy scores associated with the multiple data sources may be used to determine an aggregate privacy score associated with responding to the request. The natural language response may then be output at a client device operated by the first user in response to a determination that the aggregate privacy score associated with the natural language response satisfies a privacy criterion established for the second user with respect to the first user.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2020Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Sandro Feuz, Sammy El Ghazzal
