Patent number: 11961045Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for increasing dimensionality of data structures associated with filling positions. In some implementations, a prediction of desired experience for a given position to be filled may be incorporated into a searchable field of the data structure. Among other things, increasing the dimensionality of the data structure may facilitate more granular searching of positions and guided creation of new positions to be filled. In some implementations, a predicted desired experience may be used to notify a user posting a new position whether a specified desired experience corresponds to a predicted desired experience.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2023Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Christian Posse, Pei-Chun Chen

Publication number: 20230245010Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, devices, and computer program products are described. An intelligent routing system may route a data object to a path in a process flow using a model, such as a machine-learned model. The system may receive a first data object and may route the first data object along a path of the process flow using a random routing procedure, for example, for model training. The routing may involve performing operations based on the path and the features of the first data object. The system may update one or more models based on an outcome of the operations. Following training, the system may insert a model into the process flow at a decision point between paths. The system may receive a second data object and may route the second data object to a path using the model and based on features of the second data object.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2022Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Sarah Joann Aerni, Zineb Laraki, Penny Tselikis, Till Christian Bergmann, Michael Weil, Christian Posse, Jason Teller, Alex Edelstein, Mehmet Ezbiderli

Publication number: 20230244686Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, devices, and computer program products are described. A system may identify, from an event log including log entries for a tenant of a multi-tenant database system, a pattern of log entries corresponding to main actions and satisfying a frequency threshold. The system may identify log entries associated with the pattern and corresponding to the main actions, detailed actions, or both. The system may retrieve data corresponding to a history field of a data object associated with the pattern and may determine at least a portion of a process flow for the data object according to the pattern and based on the log entries and the historical data. The process flow may include operations to perform using the data object. In some cases, the system may transmit, to a user device, an indication of the portion of the process flow for user review and implementation.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2022Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Zineb Laraki, Penny Tselikis, Till Christian Bergmann, Michael Weil, Christian Posse, Jason Teller, Alex Edelstein, Sarah Joann Aerni, Mehmet Ezbiderli

Patent number: 11475048Abstract: In disclosed techniques, a computing system causes presentation of a user interface having an input field operable to receive, from a user, a search query for a database. The computing system may classify the search query by: determining whether the search query includes terms that are within a specified vocabulary indicative of a natural language query and determining whether the search query includes terms that identify an object defined in a schema of the database. In response to classifying the search query as a natural language query, the computing system returns query results determined by identifying values in the database corresponding to the object defined in the schema. In response to classifying the search query as a keyword query, the computing system returns query results determined by comparing terms of the search query to values within records in the database.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2020Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Rohit Kapoor, Christian Posse, Francisco Borges, Guillaume Kempf, Arvind Srikantan

Patent number: 10997560Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods that improve job posting structure and presentation by, for example, classifying portions of job postings into informative sections. As an example, given a job posting, a computing system implementing aspects of the present disclosure can separate the job posting into multiple portions. After separation into portions, the computing system can classify each portion into the most plausible job-posting-specific section. For example, the computing system can include and implement a machine-learned classification model to classify the portions into the sections. Following classification, the computing system can modify the job posting based on the classification of the portions. In particular, the structure and/or presentation of the job posting can be improved based on the classification of the portions into the sections.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2016Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Pei-Chun Chen, Christian Posse, Zhao Zhang, Xuejun Tao

Patent number: 10909125Abstract: A system associates sequentially descending weights with items in a reference list. The system identifies overlapping items from the first position to the second position in both the reference list and a test list. The system determines a weighted overlap for the overlapping items by combining the weights for each overlapping item to create a reference item weight, combining the weights for each item from the first position to the second position in the reference list to create a reference position weight, and determining the ratio between the reference item weight and the reference position weight. The system identifies overlapping items from the first position to the third position in both the reference list and the test list, and then determines a weighted overlap for these overlapping items. The system outputs the average weighted overlap as an efficiency evaluation of the information retrieval system that created the test list.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2018Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Bruno Roustant, Christian Posse

Patent number: 10592518Abstract: Techniques for identifying and presenting member profiles similar to a source member profile are described. With some embodiments, a general recommendation engine is used to extract features from member profiles, and then store the extracted features, including any computed, derived or retrieved profile features, in an enhanced member profile. In real-time, the general recommendation engine processes client requests to identify member profiles similar to a source member profile by comparing select profile features stored in the enhanced member profile with corresponding profile features of the source member profile, where the comparison results in several similarity sub-scores that are then combined in accordance with directives set forth in a configuration file. Finally, the member profiles with the highest similarity scores corresponding with the user-selected member profile are selected, and in some instances, presented to a user.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2017Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Christian Posse, Abhishek Gupta, Anmol Bhasin, Monica Rogati
