Publication number: 20220179851Abstract: Provided are techniques for generating highlight queries. Data is analyzed using one or more schemas to identify patterns and frequencies of the patterns in the data. The patterns and the frequencies of the patterns are stored in a global patterns structure. A graph is analyzed to identify one or more of the patterns in the global patterns structure that are present in the graph and in which frequencies. The identified one or more of the patterns in the global patterns structure that are present in the graph are added to a per-user patterns structure with the frequencies of those patterns. The patterns in the per-user patterns structure are scored. A subset of the patterns in the per-user patterns structure that have scores above a threshold are selected as highlight queries. The selected subset of the patterns are executed as highlight queries to generate results, and the results are returned.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2020Publication date: June 9, 2022Inventors: John Jesse Wood, Michael Kirwan, Gareth James, Hugh Morgan, Pierre Pook, Kristian Memarzia, Zachary Charles Beckett Pywell

Patent number: 11350200Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for wireless audio source switching. One of the methods includes receiving user input selecting a user interface control corresponding to one of a plurality of paired audio source devices with a wireless audio sink device that is a slave device of a first master/slave connection with a first paired audio source device of the plurality of paired audio source devices. The wireless audio sink device initiates a request to become a master device of a second master/slave connection with a second paired audio source device corresponding to the selected user interface control. The wireless audio sink device sends to the second paired audio source device a request to become a slave device of the second master/slave connection. The wireless audio sink device receives audio input from the second paired audio source device and outputs the received audio input.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2020Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: Dolby Laboratories Licensing CorporationInventors: Jack T.
