  • Patent number: 11733669
    Abstract: An industrial integrated development environment (IDE) comprises a development interface that affords a user a great deal of control over the editing tools, workspace canvases, and project information rendered at a given time. The industrial IDE system automatically filters the tools, panels, and information available for selection based on a current project development task, such that a focused subset of editing tools relevant to a current development task or context are made available for selection while other tools are hidden. The development interface also allows the user to selectively render or hide selected tools or information from among the relevant, filtered set of tools. This can reduce or eliminate unnecessary clutter and aid in quickly and easily locating and selecting a desired editing function. The IDE's development interface can also conform to a structured organization of workspace canvases and panels that facilitates intuitive workflow.

  • Patent number: 11727215
    Abstract: A method of generating a searchable representation of an electronic document includes obtaining an electronic document specifying a graphical layout of content items including text. The method also includes determining pixel data representing the graphical layout of the content items and providing input data based, at least in part, on the pixel data to a document parsing model. The document parsing model is trained to detect functional regions within the graphical layout based on the input data, assign boundaries to the functional regions based on the input data, and assign a category label to each functional region that is detected. The method also includes matching portions of the text to corresponding functional regions based on the boundaries assigned to the functional regions and locations associated with the portions of the text and storing data representing the content items, the functional regions, and the category labels in a searchable data structure.

  • Patent number: 11687826
    Abstract: An Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based innovation data processing system receives at least one query word related to a category. Information material including textual and non-textual data is retrieved from a plurality of data sources using the at least one query word. The information material is tokenized and parsed using a dependency parser for entity recognition, building entity relationships and for generating knowledge graphs. The output of the dependency parser is accessed by a trained classifier for obtaining respective confidence levels for each of the sentences in the textual data. The confidence levels are compared to a predetermined threshold confidence level for determining if the sentences include references to innovations. In addition, trends in the innovations are determined and responses to user queries are generated based on one or more of knowledge graphs and the trends.
