  • Publication number: 20260141006
    Abstract: Various systems and methods for aggregating data from disparate sources to determine an optimal package of data items are disclosed. For example, the system described herein can obtain data items from various sources, aggregate and/or organize the data items into an optimal package based on various criteria, and present, via an interactive user interface, the optimal package. Furthermore, the interactive user interface may enable a user to adjust the criteria used to aggregate and/or organize the data items. The system may interactively re-aggregate and re-organize the data items using the adjusted criteria as the user interacts with the package via the user interface. The system and user interface may thus enable the user to optimize the packages of data items based on multiple factors quickly and efficiently.

  • Publication number: 20240198238
    Abstract: A system and method for providing virtual items to users of an online game operated in a virtual space. Multiple users may participate in affiliations or alliances of discrete groups of users in an online game and may access the online game through client computing platforms associated with the users. The affiliations may have affiliation game units associated with affiliations which provide a benefit to the members of the online game. Affiliation members may cumulatively obtain affiliation game units and/or upgrade affiliation game units by providing one or more virtual items. Upgrading affiliation game units may require the cooperation of multiple members of the affiliation.

  • Patent number: 11822894
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for integrating common and context-specific natural language understanding (NLU) processing in a virtual assistant application. A server identifies a common NLU processing unit comprising (i) a common NLU classification model and (ii) a common response library comprising common responses. The server builds a combined NLU processing unit based upon the common NLU classification model and a context-specific NLU classification model, the combined NLU processing unit comprising (i) a combined NLU classification model trained using the common NLU training data and context-specific NLU training data, (ii) the common response library and (iii) a context-specific response library comprising context-specific responses. The server generates a response to an input utterance by determining a user intent associated with the input utterance using the combined NLU classification model, locating a response associated with the user intent in one or more of the libraries.
