  • Patent number: 12140436
    Abstract: In some implementations, a system may identify, using a machine learning model, a pattern of events based on account information associated with a user. The system may generate a prediction of a time period during which a predicted event, associated with the pattern of events, is predicted to occur. The system may receive an indication that a vehicle, associated with the user, is to travel a route from a starting location to an ending location during the time period. The system may identify a physical location associated with the predicted event based on a location associated with the vehicle or based on the route. The system may generate a new route that includes the starting location, the physical location as a waypoint along the new route, and the ending location. The system may transmit information that identifies the new route to a device associated with the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 12131101
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer readable media related to interaction between a user and an automated assistant during a dialog between the user and the automated assistant. Some implementations are directed to adapting a graphical and/or audible presentation of search results provided by the automated assistant for presentation to the user. The adaptation may be in response to attribute(s), of one or more of the search results, referenced in spoken and/or typed textual input provided by the user during the dialog. Some of those implementations may enable a user to provide textual input to navigate the search results within the dialog and within resource and/or interface constraints associated with the dialog. Some of those implementations may additionally and/or alternatively enable adapting, based on textual input provided by a user to the automated assistant, when and/or whether search results having certain attributes are provided to the user by the automated assistant.

  • Patent number: 12093609
    Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can selectively determine whether to incorporate a verbatim interpretation of portions spoken utterances into an entry field and/or incorporate synonymous content into the entry field. For instance, a user can be accessing an interface that provides an entry field (e.g., address field) for receiving user input. In order to provide input for entry field, the user can select the entry field and/or access a GUI keyboard to initialize an automated assistant for assisting with filling the entry field. Should the user provide a spoken utterance, the user can elect to provide a spoken utterance that embodies the intended input (e.g., an actual address) or a reference to the intended input (e.g., a name). In response to the spoken utterance, the automated assistant can fill the entry field with the intended input without necessitating further input from the user.

  • Patent number: 12055411
    Abstract: An approach is provided path-based map matching of a sequence of probe points. The approach involves, for instance, projecting a probe point of the sequence of probe points to a plurality of element projections, wherein each of the plurality of element projections is a candidate projection of the probe point to a respective candidate location on a map-matched road segment. The approach also involves determining an optimal spatial boundary containing the plurality of element projections associated to the probe point. The approach further involves specifying a distance to the optimal spatial boundary from a previous node as a heuristic of a probabilistic map matcher for all of the plurality of element projections. The approach further involves executing the probabilistic map matcher based on the heuristic to determine a map matched path and providing the map matched path as an output.

  • Patent number: 12019975
    Abstract: A method includes parsing a data object model associated with a webpage to change an original color scheme for each node of the data object model. Each node corresponds to a display feature of a layout of the webpage. The method also includes generating a modified data object model by replacing the original color scheme for each node with a calculated color scheme, displaying the layout of the webpage using the modified data object model, capturing an image of the layout of the webpage as displayed and detecting any errors in the layout of the webpage. The calculated color scheme assigns a unique color code to each feature of the node based on a position of each feature within the node and based on a position of each node within the data object model.

    Abstract: The subject technology receives, from a first client device, a set of requests for recording user activity detected on a mobile application executing on the first client device. The subject technology determines that a first request from the set of requests includes a change in position for an element of a screen of the mobile application. The subject technology determines a previous timestamp of a set of previous properties including a previous change in position for the element of the screen. The subject technology determines a transition time between a current timestamp and the previous timestamp. The subject technology generates, using a style sheet language, a linear transition based at least in part on the transition time. The subject technology adds the linear transition to a style of a markup language element corresponding to the element.
