Patent number: 12044535Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for locating a vehicle. A pose state estimator may access a previous position for the vehicle at a first time, wherein the previous position is on a first sub-map of a plurality of sub-maps. The pose state estimator may receive from a first localizer a first position estimate for the vehicle at a second time after the first time. The first position estimate may be on a second sub-map of the plurality of sub-maps. The pose state estimator may send to a second localizer a sub-map change message indicating the second sub-map.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2023Date of Patent: July 23, 2024Assignee: Aurora Operations, Inc.Inventors: Rachel Ahn, David Prasser, Peter Hansen, Robert Zlot

Patent number: 9449081Abstract: Methods and computer-readable media for associating words or groups of words distilled from content, such as reported speech or an attitude report, of a document to form semantic relationships collectively used to generate a semantic representation of the content are provided. Semantic representations may include elements identified or parsed from a text portion of the content, the elements of which may be associated with other elements that share a semantic relationship, such as an agent, location, or topic relationship. Relationships may also be developed by associating one element that is in relation to, or is about, another element, thereby allowing for rapid and effective comparison of associations found in a semantic representation with associations derived from queries. The semantic relationships may be determined based on semantic information, such as potential meanings and grammatical functions of each element within the text portion of the content.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2014Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Inventors: Richard S. Crouch, Martin Henk Van Den Berg, David Ahn, Olga Gurevich, Barney D. Pell, Livia Polanyi, Scott A. Prevost, Giovanni Lorenzo Thione

Patent number: 9384269Abstract: Architecture that enables an optional display of a longer version of each subsnippet in response to user interactions such as clicking, hovering, or other suitable form of interaction. More specifically, options are provided to display additional text from a search result at the point where a subsnippet (a subsegment in a snippet that is delimited by ellipses) ends. Selecting suitable boundaries for both initial subsnippets and expanded subsnippets enables relevant information to be presented and increased readability.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2014Date of Patent: July 5, 2016Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Riccardo Turchetto, Tejas Nadkarni, Daniel Marantz, David Ahn, Franco Salvetti

Patent number: 8712758Abstract: Technologies are described herein for coreference resolution in an ambiguity-sensitive natural language processing system. Techniques for integrating reference resolution functionality into a natural language processing system can processes documents to be indexed within an information search and retrieval system. Ambiguity awareness features, as well as ambiguity resolution functionality, can operate in coordination with coreference resolution. Annotation of coreference entities, as well as ambiguous interpretations, can be supported by in-line markup within text content or by external entity maps. Information expressed within documents can be formally organized in terms of facts, or relationships between entities in the text. Expansion can support applying multiple aliases, or ambiguities, to an entity being indexed so that all of the possibly references or interpretations for that entity are captured into the index.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2008Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Richard Crouch, Martin Henk Van den Berg, Franco Salvetti, Giovanni Lorenzo Thione, David Ahn

Publication number: 20140007216Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for adaptive packet filtering are disclosed. One method includes identifying at least one subset of rules and an ordered set of firewall packet filtering rules that defines a firewall policy such that the subset contains disjoint rules. Disjoint rules are defined as rules whose order can be changed without changing integrity of the firewall policy. Rules in the subset are sorted to statistically decrease the number of comparisons that will be applied to each packet that a firewall encounters. Packets are filtered at the firewall using the sorted rules in the subset by comparing each packet to each of the sorted rules in the subset until the packet is allowed or denied and ceasing the comparing for the packet in response to the packet being allowed or denied and thereby achieving sub-linear searching for packets filtered using the sorted rules in the subset.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2013Publication date: January 2, 2014Inventor: David Ahn

Publication number: 20130046757Abstract: Architecture that generates and presents a separator interface element in association with subsnippets (of search results) to indicate to the user the closeness relationship between subsnippets. The closeness can be presented in terms of bytes, words, paragraphs, semantic distance, rhetorical relationship, and so on, which assist the user in determining how closely related the parts of the document are in which the search terms appear. The element can be a box, for example, that is sized in length proportional to an inter-subsnippet closeness relationship.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2011Publication date: February 21, 2013Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Franco Salvetti, David Ahn, Andrea Burbank

Patent number: 8364672Abstract: Concept disambiguation is provided for search queries by analyzing search results in conjunction with an ontology of concepts. An ontology of concepts is identified, and at least one document is associated with each concept. The document associated with a concept is representative of the concept and used to generate a concept signature. When a search query is received, it is processed to obtain search results. The search results are used to generate a search results signature, which is compared to the concept signatures to identify one or more concepts that are relevant to the search query.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2010Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: David Ahn, Michael Paul Bieniosek, Andrei Peter Makhanov, Franco Salvetti, Giovanni Lorenzo Thione

Patent number: 8332426Abstract: Referring expressions are identified for concepts by analyzing search query and result selection information. An ontology of concepts is identified, and at least one document is associated with each concept. The document associated with a concept is representative of the concept. Search query information from a search engine is analyzed to identify search queries that resulted in user selections of documents associated with the concepts. Referring expressions that refer to the concepts are identified based on the search queries that resulted in user selections of documents corresponding with the concepts. After identifying referring expressions for concepts, search queries may be mapped to referring expressions to identify concepts to which the search queries pertain, and search result pages may be generated based on knowledge of the concepts.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2010Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: David Ahn, Michael Paul Bieniosek, Andrei Peter Makhanov, Franco Salvetti, Giovanni Lorenzo Thione, Gianluca Donato

Publication number: 20120150861Abstract: Answers to search queries are identified and highlighted in search result snippets for documents containing the answers. When a user submits a search query to a search engine, the search engine may query a search index to identify a set of documents as relevant search results for the search query. Additionally, an answer data store may be queried to determine if there is a short answer to the search query. If an answer is found, the answer may be used when generating search result snippets. As such, the search result snippets for documents containing the answer may include the answer. The answer may also be highlighted in the search result snippets.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2010Publication date: June 14, 2012Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: GIOVANNI THIONE, FRANCO SALVETTI, MICHAEL BIENIOSEK, DAVID AHN, RICCARDO TURCHETTO, MAX LANSING, ALOK KUMAR AGARWAL
