  • Publication number: 20230169572
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for generating and providing recommendations of products are provided. For example, content is extracted from a message sent to a user. The content is evaluated to identify a product identifier corresponding to a product title of a product. If the product identifier is a truncated version of the product title, then a database of product titles and frequencies of occurrence of the product titles is used to complete the product title. A model is used to infer a product category for the product title. Matching scores are assigned to products within a product category based upon weighted attributes. A recommendation is provided to the user for a product having a matching score greater than a matching threshold.

  • Patent number: 11645671
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for generating dynamic content item recommendations are provided. Content item information, extracted from message data, is aggregated to calculate popularity and attributes of content items. The content items are ranked based upon the popularity and attributes to generate a ranked list of content items. Exploration traffic is served utilizing a set of eligible content items selected from the ranked list of content items. An eligible content item is promoted for participation in auctions for serving non-exploration traffic based upon the eligible content item being served a threshold number of times.

  • Patent number: 11443554
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods are provided. One or more videos associated with a user may be analyzed to determine a first set of features of the user associated with a first emotion of the user and/or a second set of features of the user associated with a second emotion of the user. A first user emotion profile associated with the user may be generated based upon the first set of features and/or the second set of features. A second video may be presented via a graphical user interface of a first client device. The user may be identified within the second video. It may be determined, based upon the second video and/or the first user emotion profile, that the user is associated with the first emotion. A representation of the first emotion may be displayed via the graphical user interface of the first client device.

  • Patent number: 11327984
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for query expansion are provided. For example, a search user interface is populated with search results of a query submitted through a computing device. User input is received through the search user interface for an object, such as a drag and drop command of a phrase occurring within the search results. The user input may drag the phrase from a search result to a query input user interface. In this way, the query is modified based upon the object, such as where the phrase is added to the query to create a modified query. Second search results for the modified query are displayed through the search user interface.

  • Patent number: 11302048
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content providing, searching and/or hosting systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that automatically generates and recommends Internet memes for inclusion within electronically communicated messages. As a user is drafting a message, the input text of the drafted message is analyzed and a set of Internet (or visual) memes are compiled and presented to the user within the drafting interface. Upon selection of at least one of the memes, the message is modified by automatically removing the text from the message and replacing the now removed text with the selected meme.

  • Patent number: 11281725
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods automatically generate and provide an interactive rich set of personalized query suggestions within a unified framework. The disclosed systems and methods are able to integrate attributes associated with message data and metadata by transforming such attributes into facets that are combined with term suggestions and presented to the user in a unified manner. The instant disclosure provides an interactive search suggestion mechanism that narrows the search as the user interacts with the dynamically generated and provided suggestions.

  • Publication number: 20220067788
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for generating recommendations to users based on historical travel information and electronic communication data. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework for automating the transmission of electronic travel-related recommendations to users by consistently monitoring electronic messages received at an electronic communication mailbox corresponding to a user. The disclosed framework operates by leveraging historical user data, data parsed from electronic communication mailbox corresponding to a user, or various vendor information, and using the aforementioned data as inputs for travel-related recommendation models, in order to generate and transmit the optimal travel-related recommendations to a user.

  • Publication number: 20220019639
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content providing, searching and/or hosting systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that provides an optimized ranking methodology for query suggestion and auto-completion tasks that messaging systems can implement and embed into their functionality. The disclosed framework can leverage the mail query logs on a personal level or on the aggregate (e.g., across all or a set of users on a network), and the mailbox content of each user to produce a comprehensive ranking function that generates ranked search suggestions for a mail search query for both person and company entities.

  • Patent number: 10949449
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for efficiently storing and retrieving electronic communication are provided. Messages with the same structure are grouped into a same cluster. A template is created for the cluster. The template is populated with constant values that are the same amongst the messages. Variable values that are different amongst the messages are stored within user account repositories for each message. In this way, the constant values are merely stored once for the messages within the cluster. A template within a general repository and variable values within a user account repository may be used to reconstruct a message.

  • Publication number: 20210042507
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods are provided. One or more videos associated with a user may be analyzed to determine a first set of features of the user associated with a first emotion of the user and/or a second set of features of the user associated with a second emotion of the user. A first user emotion profile associated with the user may be generated based upon the first set of features and/or the second set of features. A second video may be presented via a graphical user interface of a first client device. The user may be identified within the second video. It may be determined, based upon the second video and/or the first user emotion profile, that the user is associated with the first emotion. A representation of the first emotion may be displayed via the graphical user interface of the first client device.
