  • Real-Time Multi-Modal Artificial Intelligence Agent
    Publication number: 20260044559
    Abstract: Provided is a real-time multi-modal artificial intelligence agent. In some implementations, the multi-modal agent can be implemented as a “situated agent”. The term situated agent refers to a setting in which the agent shares one or more perceptual inputs with a human user. For example, the situated agent can receive and process various data inputs, including video, audio, and/or textual data which are also observable by the human user. The agent can process these inputs to generate responses that are contextually-relevant for the user's physical or digital environment, for example enabling the agent to generate dialogue or other responses or outputs which assist the user in understanding and/or navigating the environment.

  • Dwell-time based generation of a user interest profile
    Patent number: 9633017
    Abstract: A method is provided for building a user interest profile. According to the method, features of each of a plurality of articles are identified. For a given user, views of one or more of the plurality of articles are logged. For each view, a corresponding dwell time for the view by the given user is measured. A weight is applied to each view based on the corresponding measured dwell time. User interest scores for features of the articles are determined based on the weighted views, and the user interest profile is generated for the given user based on the user interest scores.

  • FAST AND DYNAMIC TARGETING OF USERS WITH ENGAGING CONTENT
    Publication number: 20150178282
    Abstract: Methods, systems and programming for targeting users with engaging content. In one example, a metric with respect to a piece of content is measured for each of a plurality of users. A first set of users is identified from the plurality of users based on the measured metrics and a threshold. User profiles of the first set of users are obtained. A second set of users is then identified based on the user profiles of the first set of users. The piece of content is provided to the second set of users.

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MEASURING USER ENGAGEMENT USING SCROLL DWELL TIME
    Publication number: 20140280890
    Abstract: Method, system, and programs for measuring user engagement. In one example, a type of user activities with respect to a plurality pieces of content is detected. Information associated with the type of user activities is recorded. A time measure associated with at least one of the plurality pieces of content is obtained based on the recorded information. A user engagement score with respect to the at least one piece of content is calculated based on the time measure.
