  • Patent number: 12099549
    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: 12039276
    Abstract: A method includes associating anomalous first text, from a first unstructured data set, with a first classification; processing the first unstructured data set using at least one of ML or AI to identify a second text that is in close context to the first text, and adding the second text to a text list associated with the first classification; enriching the text list by processing the second text to generate a third text, and adding the third text to the text list to produce an enriched text list and such that the third text is also associated with the first classification; matching the text in the enriched text list to text in a second unstructured data set; and classifying the text in the second unstructured data set as having the first classification when the text in the second unstructured data set matches text in the enriched text list.

  • Patent number: 12039284
    Abstract: A summarizer can be invoked by a user to summarize content. Once started, the summarizer can examine the content, determine a main body of the content, extract texts from the main body, concatenate the texts into a text block, and make a call to an artificial intelligence (AI) platform. The call can contain the text block and specify a user-configurable summarization range for summarizing the text block. The AI platform is operable to generate a sentiment of the text block and a summary of the text block in the summarization range and return them to the summarizer. The summarizer, in turn, can instruct an application on the user device to generate a window or page for displaying the sentiment and the summary in the summarization range on the user device, in real time and in context of the content that the user is viewing, reading, or listening.

  • Patent number: 12026128
    Abstract: An online document system can allow users to participate in collaborative negotiation of documents stored with in the online document system. To facilitate negotiations between multiple entities (each potentially including multiple users with different roles in the negotiation), the online document system includes a permissions system that allows per-clause control over user's access to propose and approve changes to a negotiated document. Similarly, the user interfaces for viewing a negotiated document provided by the online document system to users can depend on the role of that user in editing the document and the current stage of the negotiation of the document. Finally, the online document system can track agreement between sides in a negotiation on a per-clause basis and can otherwise help facilitate the negotiation of the document.

  • Patent number: 11989794
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system and method for document extraction and synthesis. Specifically, a system and method for extracting portions of a document to be changed and automatedly synthesizing the changes to the extracted portion of the document to conform to the language and structure required for the final document. The present invention allows a user to modify an existing set of laws and automatedly transform the changes into a final document that complies with the specified language and format requirements for that final document. For example, a bill drafter can select a provision of existing law to modify and the system will transform the changes to the existing law into a bill to be presented before the lawmaking body that complies with all of the precise language and formatting requirements of bills to be presented.

  • Patent number: 11960562
    Abstract: Ephemeral stories allow users of an online system, such as a social networking system, to share content for a pre-determined temporary length of time. Channels group and organize stories based on content. Topic-based channels allow contain stories that have related content. Hashtag- and sticker-associated channels contain stories that include particular hashtags or stickers, respectively. User-specific channels contain content tailored by the online system for display to a particular user based on preferences and history. Collaborative channels are channels that are private to a specific group of users. The use of channels improves the online experience by grouping stories by content, thereby facilitating users' interaction with similar content.

  • Patent number: 11960560
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and accessibility analysis devices are disclosed that generate an event listener hash value for event listeners identified in a web page runtime environment. The event listener hash values are generated from event listener data extracted from web page source code. A subset of the event listeners are determined to be irrelevant to an accessibility review based on a classification identified based on a comparison of the event listener hash values to stored event listener hash values. An element hash value is generated for elements of the web page associated with accessibility issue and another subset of the event listeners determined to be relevant to the accessibility review. An issue report is output to a client device that includes a review for each of a subset of the accessibility issues retrieved based on a comparison of the generated element hash values to stored element hash values.

  • Patent number: 11947899
    Abstract: The subject technology receives, from a document object model, a set of nodes of a web page, each node corresponding to an element of the web page. The subject technology determines, using an intersection observer, a position and visibility of a set of first elements within a viewport of the web page. The subject technology determines, using a mutation observer, a set of new elements within the viewport that was previously hidden and now visible. The subject technology provides a set of visible elements, based at least in part on the set of new elements and the set of first element, as elements that have been seen by a user during a session. The subject technology generates an index based at least in part on the set of visible elements, the index comprising information corresponding to text that was visible to the user during the session.
