Publication number: 20230410176Abstract: A method including tracking a dynamic source ranking for a content provider separately by item categories of items of a content catalog. The method also can include receiving a new value to be associated with an attribute in an attribute-value pair for an item of the items. The new value can be provided by the content provider. The method additionally can include generating a priority score for the new value based on input features comprising the dynamic source ranking for the content provider for an item category of the item categories in which the item is classified, a confidence score for the new value, and an offer status of the new value. A first weighting associated with the dynamic source ranking and a second weighting associated with the confidence score are each greater than a third weighting associated with the offer status.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Applicant: Walmart Apollo, LLCInventors: Shashank Reddy Gudupally, Bala Srinivas Pillarisetty, Omar Saeed Siddiqui

Patent number: 11372939Abstract: An inventory management system may have at least one document database and a search server. The search server may have a data structure engine storing a hierarchical data structure, at least one indexing engine, and a non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor cause the search server to receive an input document, parse one or more sub documents from the input document, prepare a search document based on the one or more sub documents, and update, by the data structure engine, the hierarchical data structure based on the search document. The search engine may further construct a relationship query based on a query for information and the hierarchical data structure, determine one or more sub documents responsive to the relationship query based on the hierarchical data structure, and extract information requested by the query from the sub documents.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2020Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: Walmart Apollo, LLCInventors: Bala Srinivas Pillarisetty, Sermandurai Venkatachalam Konar, Harikrishnan Ramakrishna Pillai, Santhosh Kumar Ramalingam, Chandni Jain
