Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to generating custom previews for search results provided by a search service. For example, in various embodiments, a server system that provides a search service may receive a custom preview definition from a user associated with a first group of users. The custom preview definition may specify code that is usable to generate a custom preview interface for search results of a particular record type. The server system may use the custom preview definition to generate a custom preview interface for search results provided to users of the first group. For example, the server system may receive user input identifying a first search result provided by the search service. The server system may then determine that the record type of the first search result matches the particular record type and retrieve the specified code to facilitate display of the custom preview interface at the client device.

Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus for providing user feedback to an action selection model. In an aspect, a method includes displaying interaction elements for recommendations selected by a selection model. Each interaction element may be selected by one of a first interaction mode or a second interaction mode. Selection by the first interaction mode indicates an acceptance of the recommendation described the interaction element. Selection by the second interaction mode causes the user device to display the decision data that caused the selection model to select the recommendation described by the interaction element. In some implementations, the recommendations are actions that a user device may perform. In other implementations, each recommendation may be one of an action that the user device may perform or content that a user may consume.

The first user interface may include a list of items, which may be formatted such that they are optimally viewable from a first distance away from the display. In response to detecting a touch gesture, such as a scrolling gesture, a second user interface may be presented including the list of items, which may be formatted such that they are optimally viewed from a second distance. For example, the first user interface may be optimally viewable from a distance of approximately seven to ten feet from the display. As another example, the second user interface may optimally viewable from a distance of approximately one to three feet.

Abstract: Systems and methods of transferring data from memory to manage graphical output latency are provided. A device having a display receives an acoustic signal that carries a query. The device determines that a wireless controller is in a first state. The device establishes, based on receipt of the acoustic signal and the determination that the wireless controller device is in the first state, a first interaction mode for a graphical user interface rendered by the computing device for display via the display device. The device sets a prefetch parameter to a first value and prefetches the corresponding amount of electronic content items. The device establishes a second interaction mode and overrides the first value of the prefetch parameter to a second value, and prefetches a second amount of electronic content items corresponding to the second value.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to automatically generating user interfaces. In some embodiments, input data to be displayed is grouped into components (e.g., based on depth within hierarchical code, coordinates in a display space, etc.). These components may be based on template information that defines a set of known component types. In some embodiments, the system formats the selected components according to display parameters and causes display of a user interface that displays the components based on the formatting. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques may allow automatic creation of effective user interfaces without information specifying layout and formatting for input data. This may provide flexible, quality interfaces without requiring design or coding expertise. Further, disclosed techniques may allow the automatic interface generator to generate interfaces similar to other existing interfaces.
