  • Patent number: 11336939
    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for dynamically ordering content and discrete content segments are presented. A set of discrete content segments is received having a first order for distributing the set of discrete content segments during a display of a media stream. Each discrete content segment includes a set of ordering factors. Event data is received. The event data is representative of a set of events depicted by the media stream. A set of event instances is determined from the event data representing the set of events depicted by the media stream. A second order is generated for the set of discrete content segments based on the set of event instances and the sets of ordering factors.

  • Patent number: 11321539
    Abstract: A system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a computer-implemented method for creating advertisement messages using generative grammar models is presented. A generative grammar model defining a message structure of requested message is accessed. The message structure includes a plurality of lexical slots. The generative grammar model includes a corpus of source data to populate each lexical slot in the plurality of lexical slots to generate an advertisement message for a product listing. An advertisement message is generated in accordance with the generative grammar model and the message is published. The advertisement message for the product listing is then transmitted to a client device.

  • Patent number: 11282120
    Abstract: Systems, methods and media for managing digital rights in three-dimensional (3D) printing are provided. In one example, a registration of digital rights in a first 3D object is received from a first user and via a portal. The registration includes a certification device. The registration including the certification device is published in an online environment, and the first 3D object is made available for replication by second users via the portal. A request for access to the digital rights in the first 3D object is received from a second user for 3D printing of the first 3D object. Permission is granted under the digital rights in the first 3D object to the second user for printing the first 3D object. Instructions are electronically transmitted to a 3D printer to print the first 3D object, and the 3D printer prints the first 3D object based on the instructions.
