  • Patent number: 11231832
    Abstract: The subject matter of this specification generally relates to providing content related to text depicted in images. In one aspect, a system includes a data processing apparatus configured to extract text from an image. The extracted text is partitioned into multiple blocks. The multiple blocks are presented as respective first user-selectable targets on a user interface at a first zoom level. A re user selection of a first block of the multiple blocks is detected. In response to detecting the user selection of the first block, portions of the extracted text in the first block are presented as respective second user-selectable targets on the user interface at a second zoom level greater than the first zoom level. In response to detecting a user selection of a portion of the extracted text within the first block, an action is initiated based on content of the user-selected text.

  • Patent number: 11222183
    Abstract: Systems, methods and products for accessing a set of electronic document templates, identifying instances of common document content such as content items which are semantically similar, and generating component templates containing the common content. Semantically similar content may be identified by analyzing content for factors such as expressed sentiment, included keyphrases, recognizable entities, expressed topics, assigning values to content based on these factors, and determining similarity based on comparisons of the assigned values. Component templates may also be generated based on types of content that include identical text or images, content that has a predefined level of similarity rather than being identical, content that has common rules, scripting logic or variables, metadata, etc. The component templates may be generated automatically, or in response to user instructions.

  • Patent number: 11222286
    Abstract: To automatically generate a project document, a server in a computing environment receives input documents associated with a project, and extracts a set of features from each input document. The server determines a frequency of the words in each input document and stores the frequencies in relation to the words in the sets of words. The server than applies a document type machine-learned model to a set of words for each input document to infer a document type. The document machine-learned model may be trained using a bag-of-words representation. The server then applies a architecture pattern machine-learned model the set of input documents to determine a target architecture pattern. The server automatically generates a project document for the project based on the document types and inferred architecture pattern.

  • Patent number: 11182454
    Abstract: An optimization system receives a first information item to be placed within a web page that is displayed on a graphical user interface. The optimization system retrieves stored user data about the first information item from a user history database. The optimization system calculates a redundancy value for the first information item, which is a measure of the frequency with which the user has interacted with the first information item in the past. The optimization system compares the redundancy value for the first information item to a predetermined threshold value. When the redundancy value of the information item is greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold value, the optimization system requests a second information item from the information source server. The optimization system receives the second information item and places the second information item on the web page that is displayed on the graphical user interface.
