Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that provides mechanisms for a Deep & Cross Network (DCN) framework that performs distilled deep prediction for personalized stream ranking on portal websites. The disclosed framework is scalable to satisfy the much more stringent latency and computational requirements required by current network operating environments. The disclosed framework is able to dynamically evaluate and leverage live traffic on network sites in order to provide, update and maintain current recommendations for users as they traverse to a portal and when they navigate within the portal. The disclosed framework implements a DCN model(s) that is capable of being compressed into a model size for a unified optimization within a live traffic environment by combining knowledge distillation and model compression techniques. The disclosed framework is built as a light-weight deep learning model that can be served in production and perform on par with large models.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for improving web-based document retrieval and object manipulation. In an implementation, objects within web documents (e.g., a web page) are manipulated when the objects are visible through a viewport of a user's web browser.

The manipulation may include downloading content associated with the stored object and additionally, or alternatively, executing a script associated with the stored object. Additionally, or independently, methods may be provided for blocking the download of an object in a retrieved web document until that object is displayed or visible in the user's browser viewport.

Abstract: A multimedia content item is summarized based on its audio track and a desired compression budget. The audio track is extracted and processed by an automatic speech recognizer to obtain a time-aligned text transcript. The text-transcript is partitioned into a plurality of segment sequences. An informativeness score based on a salience score and a diversity score is computed for each of the segments. A coherence score is also computed for the segments in the plurality of sequences. A subsequence of one of the segment sequences that optimizes for informativeness and coherence is selected for generating a new content item summarizing the multimedia content item.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments are directed toward local emotion detection during live streaming events. A client device receives a video stream from a remote server and captures media content while displaying the video stream. The client device uses a local machine learning/artificial intelligence event detection model to detect events in the media content. The client device then transmits detected events to the remote server involved in the live stream. The client device may additionally stream the locally captured media content to the remote server. In response, the remote server provides an interaction dashboard and, in some embodiments, mixes the local media content with the live stream.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content generating, searching, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content providing, searching and/or hosting systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel messaging framework that automatically applies a multi-factor analysis technique to incoming and received messages in order to properly identify a message's type and category, which dictates the manner in which the message is displayed within a recipient's inbox. The disclosed framework operates on two levels: i) it determines whether a message is from a human or machine sender (H/M classification), and ii) it determines the messages category (MAGMA categorization).

Abstract: Devices often receive content items to be saved for later presentation to a user. In some instances, the content of the message is analyzed to retrieve supplemental information from external data sources, such as a map to a location discussed in a message. However, such supplementing often fails to reflect the personal context of the content item to the user, who may not easily recall the associated personal context when the content item is later presented. Instead, for a content item to be saved, a device may evaluate personal data sources to identify the personal context of the content item to the user, and add personal context annotations to a content item record of the saved content item. Later, during a presentation of the content item to the user, the personal context annotations may be included as a reflection of the personal context of the content item to the user.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for machine learning. Upon receiving input data associated with a time series, hidden representations associated with the time series in a feature space are obtained and used to generate a query vector in a query space. Such generated query vector is then used to query relevant historic information related to the time series. The query vector and the relevant historic information are aggregated to generate at least one queried vector, which is aggregated with the hidden representations to generate enriched hidden representations that enhance the expressiveness of the hidden representations.

Abstract: A method of generating congruous metadata is provided. The method includes receiving a similarity measure between at least two multimedia objects. Each multimedia object has associated metadata. If the at least two multimedia objects are similar based on the similarity measure and a similarity threshold, the associated metadata of each of the multimedia objects are compared. Then, based on the comparison of the associated metadata of each of the at least two multimedia objects, the method further includes generating congruous metadata. Metadata may be tags, for example.
