  • Patent number: 12175263
    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for generating a unified semantic model identifying a user's intentions or goals within operating the system. By determining the intent and desires of the user, tasks and queries associated with or requested by the user can be more effectively optimized, automated, or otherwise improved. In some computing environments, multiple users access a database which includes a collection of software objects. The objects within the database can sometimes form a hierarchy, with a parent-child relationship among them. Traditionally, a developer creating the database and the objects within can only determine a user's intent based on the actions taken by the user within the database. The present solution provides the developer with a higher level model representing different users' intents based on observed data from a number of sources in addition to the user's interaction with the database.

  • Patent number: 12113756
    Abstract: A content suggestion system to generate and cause display of a set of chat suggestions based on messages received at a client device. The content suggestions system is configured to display messages that include message content at a client device, and identify content selected by a user of the client device to be included in a response to the messages received at the client device. The content suggestion system tracks and stores a number of times in which a particular pair of content appear in succession in a chat context, and calculates a ranking of the content among a set of available content. When subsequent messages that include the content of the content pair are displayed at the client device, the content suggestion system retrieves and presents a set of content as suggestions, based on the corresponding ranks.

  • Patent number: 12099672
    Abstract: An electronic device with a first off-display input region detects a first portion of an input on the input region. In response to the first portion of the input: when the first portion of the input meets first criteria without a characteristic intensity of the first input increasing above a first intensity threshold, the electronic device provides a first output that indicates a current state of a first attribute of the electronic device without altering the first attribute. The electronic device detects a second portion of the input. In response to the second portion of the input: if the second portion of the first input meets second criteria that require the characteristic intensity of the input increases above the first intensity threshold, the electronic device performs a first operation that alters the first attribute of the electronic device; and otherwise, the electronic device forgoes performing the first operation.

  • Patent number: 12061959
    Abstract: A variety of systems and methods can include evaluation of human user effort data. Various embodiments apply techniques to identify anomalous effort data for the purpose of detecting the efforts of a single person, as well as to segment and isolate multiple persons from a single collection of data. Additional embodiments describe the methods for using real-time anomaly detection systems that provide indicators for scoring effort data in synthesized risk analysis. Other embodiments include approaches to distinguish anomalous effort data when the abnormalities are known to be produced by a single entity, as might be applied to medical research and enhance sentiment analysis, as well as detecting the presence of a single person's effort data among multiple collections, as might be applied to fraud analysis and insider threat investigations. Embodiments include techniques for analyzing the effects of adding and removing detected anomalies from a given collection on subsequent analysis.

  • Patent number: 12051498
    Abstract: To document features of interest observed in a scanning procedure, after the images have been obtained the technician reviews the images on the imaging system and places virtual markers on the images (i.e., the 2D image or 3D volume) created by the imaging system. The virtual markers identify the type and location of the various features of interest observed during the imaging or scanning procedure and are placed directly on the images. Notes can also be added to the images, such as with regard to each of the virtual markers placed on the image. These virtual markers and optional notes communicate additional information regarding the patient and the image in a direct, efficient and comprehensive manner directly to the physician during later review of the images which would not be readily discernable solely from the image.
