  • Publication number: 20250150422
    Abstract: Techniques for generating modified messages via a communication platform are discussed herein. For example, one or more machine-learning models associated with a communication platform may be configured to receive, as input and from a user of the communication platform, characteristics of one or more previously modified messages shared to the communication platform. The machine-learning model may generate one or more modified messages containing at least one characteristic of the previously modified messages and allowing the user to share the modified message to the communication platform.

  • Publication number: 20250130753
    Abstract: Techniques for generating and displaying a summary of multiple virtual spaces are discussed herein. A communication platform may determine whether to generate a summary of the content posted across a set of virtual spaces. For instance, the communication platform can identify a set of virtual spaces that the user is a member of. For a pre-determined period, the communication platform can determine a first number of content items posted to the set of virtual spaces. The communication platform may also determine, over the same period, a second number indicating the number of the content items the user has yet to view. Based on the second number meeting or exceeding a threshold, the communication platform may generate a summary for the user. Accordingly, the communication platform may generate a summary of the content posted to the set of virtual spaces and display the summary via a user interface of the user.

  • Publication number: 20250133048
    Abstract: Techniques for determining and/or displaying summarized messages are discussed herein. A user may post a message to a virtual space of a communication platform. That is, a user may send a message to one or more users via a virtual space. In such instances, the communication platform may identify the intended recipients of the message and input the message and the intended recipients into a machine-learning model to receive, as output from the machine-learning model, data indicative of a summarized representation of the message. The summary may include information that is relevant and/or important for the intended recipient user(s). Further, the summary may include a summary of the message, action items included in the message, recommendations, and/or any other information. In some examples, the communication platform may cause the summary to be displayed via a user interface of the recipient user.

  • Patent number: 12212627
    Abstract: A method for determining a profile of an entity of interest, comprising interrogating a social media platform to determine a social media account corresponding to the entity of interest and generating a linked social network data structure linking the social media account corresponding to the entity of interest to one or more other social media accounts on the social media platform corresponding to other entities. The method further involves assigning an individual link measure to one or more of the individual links of the linked network data structure, the individual link measure based on an assessment of the one or more social media interactions upon which the individual link is based on and a profile of the entity of interest based on an aggregated measure based on the linked social network data structure comprising the individual link measures.

  • Patent number: 11826258
    Abstract: Bone plates for engaging bone members are described herein. The bone plates can receive one or more screws to secure the bone plates to an underlying bone member. The one or more screws can be inserted into bone plate holes that can be considered locking or non-locking. The bone plates described herein can have particular combinations of locking and/or non-locking holes. In addition, instruments such as distal and proximal aiming guides can accompany the bone plates to guide one or more screws into the bone plates.

  • Patent number: 11826081
    Abstract: A system for performing surgical repair of the spine includes a distractor and a permanently implanted bone plate system. A surgical repair methodology is also disclosed that employs an implanted bone plate system with a substantially void internal volume which is attached to adjacent vertebrae subsequent to the distraction and adjustment of curvature of the vertebrae and prior to the excision of disc and/or end plate tissue through the bone plate. The device further facilitates the subsequent delivery of an interbody repair device for the purpose of either fusion or dynamic stabilization, such as by disc arthroplasty. The plate may be permanently implanted, such as when a fusion between the attached vertebral bodies is desired, but it need not be permanently implanted.

  • Patent number: 11154039
    Abstract: Examples of electrical lamp fixtures for illuminating terrariums and stimulating the growth and health of reptiles, amphibians, and birds, and specifically to an improved, compact light emitting diode (LED) terrarium light apparatus are described. The lighting apparatus can incorporate one or multiple extended point source LED arrays, such as composed of high brightness LEDs of multiple wavelengths, that provide spatially and spectrally controlled light. A compact, high brightness LED terrarium light apparatus for reptiles and birds, comprises an array of multiple LED chips that provides visible light, ultraviolet light, and (optionally) infrared light, with separate control of the various spectral components.

  • Patent number: 10896431
    Abstract: A method for assessing a pre-cognitive emotional response from a test subject, using responses obtained during the first moments of brain activity after presentation of a stimulus, includes exposing the test subject to a visual stimulus for between approximately 500 milliseconds and approximately 1 second, and receiving an input from the subject while the subject is exposed to the visual stimulus or within approximately 300 milliseconds after the subject is first exposed to the stimulus. The method further includes storing, in response to receiving the input, a user response that identifies one of a plurality of emotional reactions that is associated with the visual stimulus. Each of the exposing, receiving, and storing acts is repeated for a plurality of visual stimuli. The method further includes determining, based on each of the stored user responses, one or more dominant emotional characteristics of the subject.
