Publication number: 20230229666Abstract: Methods and apparatuses related to federated search of multiple sources with conflict resolution are disclosed. A method may comprise obtaining a set of data ontologies (e.g., types, properties, and links) associated with a plurality of heterogeneous data sources; receiving a selection of a graph comprising a plurality of graph nodes connected by one or more graph edges; and transforming the graph into one or more search queries across the plurality of heterogeneous data sources. A method may comprise obtaining a first data object as a result of executing a first search query across a plurality of heterogeneous data sources; resolving, based on one or more resolution rules, at least the first data object with a repository data object; deduplicating data associated with at least the first data object and the repository data object prior to storing the deduplicated data in a repository that has a particular data model.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2022Publication date: July 20, 2023Inventors: DANIELLE KRAMER, ANDREW ISRAEL, JEFFREY CHEN, DAVID COHEN, STEVEN FREIBERG, BRYAN OFFUTT, MATTHEW AVANT, PETER WILCZYNSKI, JASON HOCH, ROBERT LIU, WILLIAM WALDREP, KEVIN ZHANG, ALEXANDER LANDAU, DAVID TOBIN

Patent number: 11561943Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to deduplicating metadata about places. A feature generator module is configured to generate features for metadata profiles. The metadata profiles represent a plurality of places. The features are based on geohash strings and word embeddings generated for the metadata profiles. A diff generator module is configured to generate diff vectors that pair-wise encode results of comparison between features of paired metadata profiles. A classification module is configured to generate similarity scores for the paired metadata profiles based on the diff vectors. A particular similarity score indicates whether metadata profiles in a particular pair of metadata profiles represent a same place.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2020Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: SafeGraph, Inc.Inventors: Kaushik Iska, Noah Yonack, Tenzing Shaw, Andrew Israel, Takashi Yonebayashi, Piotr W. Kozikowski Kruczkowska, Aaron Goebel

Patent number: 10972862Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to determining visitor behavior. In particular, it relates to receiving preliminary geospatial coordinates of a plurality of places-of-interest, generating (i) contours of the places-of-interest and (ii) hyper-located geospatial coordinates of centroids of the places-of-interest based on processing the preliminary geospatial coordinates of the places-of-interest, and correlating (i) the contours and (ii) the hyper-located geospatial coordinates of the centroids of the places-of-interest with geospatial coordinates of visitor locations to determine the visitor behavior of visitors visiting the places-of-interest, including at least one of detecting whether the visitors visited the places-of-interest, and detecting a duration for which the visitors visited the places-of-interest.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2019Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: SafeGraph, Inc.Inventors: Kaushik Iska, Tenzing Shaw, Andrew Israel, Noah Yonack

Patent number: 10877947Abstract: The technology disclosed uses machine learning-based models to compare and merge metadata profiles from various metadata sources to create a library of metadata profiles with the most accurate attributes. The technology disclosed adjusts the geospatial coordinates of places located inside a building structure for accuracy and defines a block for each place within the perimeter of the building structure. The building structure may host a single place or multiple places. The non-overlapping blocks, the adjusted geospatial coordinates of places and more accurate metadata profiles enable the gathering of accurate location-specific data from visitors inside the building structures through their personal devices.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2018Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: SafeGraph, Inc.Inventors: Kaushik Iska, Noah Yonack, Tenzing Shaw, Andrew Israel, Takashi Yonebayashi, Piotr W.

Patent number: 10623889Abstract: The technology disclosed adjusts the geospatial coordinates of places-of-interest located inside a building structure for accuracy and defines a block for each place-of-interest within the perimeter of the building structure. The building structure may host a single place-of-interest or multiple places-of-interest. The technology disclosed outlines a contour of the building structure based on geospatial coordinates of the perimeter points of the building structure, identifies contained places-of-interest within the contour, divides the contour into pieces, calculating splines for each of the pieces, and partitions the pieces into non-overlapping blocks by orthogonally projecting block boundaries onto the splines. Each contained places-of-interest within the building structure is attributed to a block.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2018Date of Patent: April 14, 2020Assignee: SafeGraph, Inc.Inventors: Kaushik Iska, Tenzing Shaw, Andrew Israel, Noah Yonack
