  • Patent number: 11016981
    Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for receiving, by a computing system, a query that was specified by user input at a computing device. The computing system identifies one or more results to the query. The computing system provides the one or more results for presentation by the computing device. The computing system receives an indication that user input at the computing device provided input to save a user-selected result, of the one or more results, for later presentation. The computing system receives a request to present the computing device with a display of saved results to search queries. The computing device presents the display of saved results to search queries, including a presentation of the user-selected result and a second user-selected result.

  • Patent number: 10776367
    Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for receiving a request to provide a computing device with a list of suggested queries. A system may identify that a particular term has occurred frequently in documents published within a recent time period, and in response may select a particular query to include in the list of suggested queries based on the computing system determining that the particular query includes the particular term. A computing device may be provided with data to cause the computing device to present the particular query in the list of suggested queries. An indication that user input selected the particular query from the presented list of suggested queries may be received, and one or more results to the particular query may be provided for receipt and presentation by the computing device.

  • Patent number: 10482092
    Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for receiving a query that was specified by user input at a computing device, identifying multiple datasets that are available to be queried, and identifying a ranking of the multiple datasets. A search of a highest-ranked of the multiple datasets may be requested. The search of the highest-ranked of the multiple datasets may be determined to not yield a result. A search of a lower-ranked of the multiple data sets may then be requested, and a responsive result thereby received. That result may be provided for presentation by the computing device.

  • Patent number: 10445329
    Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for receiving, by a computing system, a first query that was specified by user input at a computing device. The computing system requests, as a result of having determined that one or more datasets of structured data do not have data for answering the first query, a search of one or more datasets of unstructured data that is based on the first query. The computing system requests multiple results to the search of the one or more datasets of unstructured data, wherein the multiple results are each associated with a query relevance score. The computing system provides the multiple results for presentation by the computing device, in a ranked order that is based on the query relevance score for each of the multiple results.

  • Publication number: 20130113192
    Abstract: An inflatable curtain airbag includes a luminescent visual marking indicating a proper installation of a compacted airbag bundle. Luminescent materials, when exposed to electromagnetic radiation of one frequency range, emit electromagnetic radiation in a different frequency range. This emitted radiation can be automatically detected by an optical detection device. The simplest marking consists of a line extending along the length of the airbag bundle. To facilitate recognition of the marking in an automated quality control, the marking may consist of a number of parallel lines, a portion of which may be broken lines, or a row of dots lined up along the length of the bundle. When the curtain airbag is compacted to a bundle, the marking may be located anywhere on the surface of the bundle in an area facing the interior of the vehicle.
