Patent number: 11385914Abstract: A content creation application can include a feature that receives an inline note within a document and communicates the content of the inline note and a user identifier associated with an author of the inline note to an intelligence service. The intelligence service can identify, from the content of the inline note, one or more agents and a request, the identified one or more agents being the author, one or more person agents, one or more bot agents, or a combination thereof. Based on the identified agent (or lack thereof), the intelligence service can generate a message to each of the one or more agents and communicate the message to the each of the one or more agents over a communication channel. A person agent or the author can receive the message and view the message using the appropriate communication application without accessing the original document.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2018Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Bernhard S. J. Kohlmeier, Luis Carlos Vargas Herring, Mark J. Encarnacion, Patrick Pantel, Jaime Brooks Teevan, Victor Poznanski, Woon Kiat Wong

Patent number: 10346413Abstract: Techniques provide time-aware ranking, such as ranking of information, files or URL (uniform resource locator) links. For example, time-aware modeling assists in determining user intent of a query to a search engine. In response to the query, results are ranked in a time-aware manner to better match the user intent. The ranking may model query, URL and query-URL pair behavior over time to create time-aware query, URL and query-URL pair models, respectively. Such models may predict behavior of a query-URL pair, such as frequency and timing of clicks to the URL of the pair when the query of the pair is posed to the search engine. Results of a query may be ranked by predicted query-URL behavior. Once ranked, the results may be sent to the user in response to the query.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2016Date of Patent: July 9, 2019Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Kira Radinsky, Susan T. Dumais, Krysta M. Svore, Jaime Brooks Teevan, Eric Joel Horvitz

Patent number: 10037367Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media are provided for analyzing a large amount of social media data from a large population of social media users and constructing correlational data models between one or more events that occur within each user's timeline. Social media posts directed to personal experiences of a large number of social media users are extracted. Event timelines are generated for each of the social media users, based on their personal experiences. The event timelines are analyzed with a particular event of interest to measure correlations between events occurring within the timelines and the particular event of interest. Using the measured correlations, a correlational data model is thereby constructed. The correlational data model may be used for application to decision-making calculations by one or more systems in an active or passive manner.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2014Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Emre Mehmet Kiciman, Paul Nathan Bennett, Jaime Brooks Teevan, Susan Theresa Dumais

Publication number: 20170085608Abstract: Some examples include transitioning between an individual mode and a collaborative mode in response to an orientation change of a device. Further, some implementations include identifying data to be shared with one or more other devices (e.g., co-located devices) in the collaborative mode. In some examples, the individual mode may be associated with an individual search, the collaborative mode may be associated with a collaborative search, and the devices may transition between the individual mode and the collaborative mode in response to orientation changes.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2016Publication date: March 23, 2017Inventors: Shiri Azenkot, Meredith June Morris, Jaime Brooks Teevan, Daniel John Liebling

Patent number: 9537908Abstract: Some examples include transitioning between an individual mode and a collaborative mode in response to an orientation change of a device. Further, some implementations include identifying data to be shared with one or more other devices (e.g., co-located devices) in the collaborative mode. In some examples, the individual mode may be associated with an individual search, the collaborative mode may be associated with a collaborative search, and the devices may transition between the individual mode and the collaborative mode in response to orientation changes.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2013Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Shiri Azenkot, Meredith June Morris, Jaime Brooks Teevan, Daniel John Liebling
