Patent number: 11972782Abstract: Systems and methods for generating individualized content trailers. Content such as a video is divided into segments each representing a set of common features. With reference to a set of stored user preferences, certain segments are selected as aligning with the user's interests. Each selected segment may then be assigned a label corresponding to the plot portion or element to which it belongs. A coherent trailer may then be assembled from the selected segments, ordered according to their plot elements. This allows a user to see not only segments containing subject matter that aligns with their interests, but also a set of such segments arranged to give the user an idea of the plot, and a sense of drama, increasing the likelihood of engagement with the content.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Rovi Guides, Inc.Inventors: Jeffry Copps Robert Jose, Mithun Umesh, Sindhuja Chonat Sri

Patent number: 11961507Abstract: A transcription of a query for content discovery is generated, and a context of the query is identified, as well as a first plurality of candidate entities to which the query refers. A search is performed based on the context of the query and the first plurality of candidate entities, and results are generated for output. A transcription of a second voice query is then generated, and it is determined whether the second transcription includes a trigger term indicating a corrective query. If so, the context of the first query is retrieved. A second term of the second query similar to a term of the first query is identified, and a second plurality of candidate entities to which the second term refers is determined. A second search is performed based on the second plurality of candidates and the context, and new search results are generated for output.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2023Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Rovi Guides, Inc.Inventors: Jeffry Copps Robert Jose, Sindhuja Chonat Sri

Publication number: 20240005923Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for disambiguating a voice search query that contains a command keyword by determining whether the user spoke a quotation from a content item and whether the user mimicked or approximated the way the quotation is spoken in the content item. The voice search query is transcribed into a string, and an audio signature of the voice search query is identified. Metadata of a quotation matching the string is retrieved from a database that includes audio signature information for the string as spoken within the content item. The audio signature of the voice search query is compared with the audio signature information in the metadata to determine whether the audio signature matches the audio signature information in the quotation metadata. If a match is detected, then a search result comprising an identifier of the content item from which the quotation comes is generated.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2023Publication date: January 4, 2024Inventors: Ankur Aher, Sindhuja Chonat Sri, Aman Puniyani, Nishchit Mahajan

Patent number: 11820403Abstract: A method of determining a navigation trajectory for an autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) is disclosed. The method may include receiving first Region of Interest (ROI) data associated with an upcoming trajectory path, and receiving predicted attributes associated with a future navigation trajectory for the upcoming trajectory path. The predicted attributes are derived based on map for the upcoming trajectory path. The method may further include modifying the predicted attributes based on environmental attributes extracted from first ROI data to generate modified attributes, and dynamically receiving a second ROI data associated with the upcoming trajectory path upon reaching the upcoming trajectory path. The method may further include predicting dynamic attributes associated with an imminent navigation trajectory for the upcoming trajectory path based on the second ROI data, and refining the modified attributes based on the one or more dynamic attributes to generate a final navigation trajectory.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2020Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Wipro LimitedInventors: A.
