Abstract: A content retrieval system may receive a query associated with a plurality of content items in a repository. For each content item of the plurality of content items: a respective first and second similarity score may be generated based on a similarity between embeddings indicative of a first and second data type generated from the query and for the content item; and a respective normalized similarity score may be generated based on a combination of the respective first and second similarity scores. A set of content items with respective normalized similarity scores that satisfy a similarity score threshold may be identified. An exact-match (lexical) search may yield respective mapping scores for content items that may also be ranked. An output indicative of content items that are identified in the set of content items with high-ranking similarity scores and identified in the set of content items with high-ranking mapping scores.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for ranking a plurality of content items for presentation to a user. An embodiment generates a ranking score for each content item by: providing input to a deep machine learning (ML) model, the input including at least one or more query features and one or more content item features, determining, by the deep ML model and based at least on the input, a first probability of a first type of interaction between the user and the content item and a second probability of a second type of interaction between the user and the content item, and calculating the ranking score for the content item based at least on the first and second probabilities. An embodiment ranks the content items for presentation based on the ranking score associated with each content item.

Abstract: Disclosed are system, method and/or computer program product embodiments that retrieve items for a user based on a query using a two-tower deep machine learning model. An example embodiment provides input to a context tower, wherein the input includes the query and one or more of a query embedding corresponding to the query or a graph user embedding corresponding to the user. The context tower generates a context embedding in a vector space based on the input. The model determines a measure of similarity between the context embedding and each of a plurality of item embeddings in the vector space that are generated by an item tower and represent a plurality of candidate items. A relevancy score is calculated for each candidate item based on the measure of similarity between the context embedding and the corresponding item embedding. The relevancy scores are used for item retrieval and/or ranking.

Abstract: A sound or vibration source localization system with a master unit and a plurality of slave units. The master unit transmit a time synchronization signal via an RF link to the slave units. A microphone or vibration sensor in each of the slave units are used to record a short time sequence, e.g. 0.2-2 seconds, of sound or vibration time aligned with the time synchronization signal to ensure synchronous recording of the time sequences at all slave units. The slave unit transmit the recorded time aligned time sequences via an RF link along with a time stamp and an identification code to the master unit. The master unit has a processor system arranged to process the received time sequences from the slave units according to a lizard ear mimicking algorithm. Such type of algorithm provides a good direction estimate in response to two input signals recorded at different positions, even with a short time sequence.
