  • Patent number: 11822695
    Abstract: Automated assistant responses may be assembled and/or evaluated to address privacy concerns. In various implementations, a free-form natural language input may be received from a first user and may include a request for information pertaining to a second user. Multiple data sources may be identified that are accessible by an automated assistant to retrieve data associated with the second user. The multiple data sources may collectively include sufficient data to formulate a natural language response to the request. Respective privacy scores associated with the multiple data sources may be used to determine an aggregate privacy score associated with responding to the request. The natural language response may then be output at a client device operated by the first user in response to a determination that the aggregate privacy score associated with the natural language response satisfies a privacy criterion established for the second user with respect to the first user.

  • Patent number: 11790028
    Abstract: A user interface (UI) enhancement system modifies a computer user interface based on user interactions recorded over time. The UI enhancement system records user interactions and develops a corresponding heat map. The heat map represents frequencies of user actions such as links clicked, scrolling actions, buttons selected, jumps within a page, etc. Based on the heat map, the UI enhancement system modifies a user interface configuration file which in turn influences the appearance and/or behavior of elements within the user interface to improve the user experience. Some embodiments give greater prominence to a UI element associated with greater “heat” and less prominence to an element with less “heat”.

  • Patent number: 11790160
    Abstract: Users of a database management engine may generate fillable digital documents by mapping interface elements onto form documents. When a user maps interface elements onto a form document, the user may accidentally overlap two or more interface elements. To rectify this, the database management engine may modify the position of one of interface elements based on a set of positioning rules. In addition, the database management engine may identify and suggest mappings to users based on similar documents that have been previously mapped. The database management engine identifies similar documents using information about the document, the user, and the mapping itself. The mapping associated with the most similar document may be provided to the user as a suggested mapping. The database management engine converts the form document and finalized mapping into a fillable digital document. The fillable digital document is sent to recipients, who complete the fillable digital document.

  • Patent number: 11748663
    Abstract: An online system presents content to its users, in which the content includes links that launch a messaging application and initiate conversations via the application. The system receives information indicating that negative experiences occurred during the conversations and may use this information and attributes of entities participating in the conversations to train a model to predict a likelihood of an occurrence of a negative experience. Upon determining an opportunity to present a user with a link that launches the application and initiates a potential conversation with an entity via the application, the system applies the model to predict a likelihood of an occurrence of the negative experience by the user during the potential conversation based on the entity's attributes. Based on the predicted likelihood, the system adjusts a value associated with presenting the link and passes the adjusted value to a process that selects content for presentation to the user.

  • Patent number: 11704584
    Abstract: Accelerated machine learning using an efficient preconditioner for Kernel Ridge Regression (KRR). A plurality of anchor points may be selected by: projecting an initial kernel onto a random matrix in a lower dimensional space to generate a randomized decomposition of the initial kernel, permuting the randomized decomposition to reorder its columns and/or rows to approximate the initial kernel, and selecting anchor points representing a subset of the columns and/or rows based on their permuted order. A reduced-rank approximation kernel may be generated comprising the subset of columns and/or rows represented by the selected anchor points. A KRR system may be preconditioned using a preconditioner generated based on the reduced-rank approximation kernel. The preconditioned KRR system may be solved to train the machine learning model. This KRR technique may be executed without generating the KRR kernel, reducing processor and memory consumption.
