  • Publication number: 20200314642
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a plurality of cells representing a geographical area, where each cell of the plurality of cells comprises a plurality of address points representing addresses in the cell, and normalizing each address corresponding to each address point into a hierarchical structure of address components. The systems and methods further provide for traversing a hierarchical structure of address components for address points in a first cell to determine address components that are different between address points in the first cell, and for each address component that is different between address points in the first cell, generating an anonymized address component using a common prefix for the address component or a combination of address components. An anonymized address is generated for the first cell comprising at least one anonymized address component, and the anonymized address is stored for the first cell.

  • Publication number: 20200256696
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing routing involving an indicated point of interest associated with a plurality of levels of a multilevel (overlapping or stacked) roadway are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system aggregates trip data received from user devices that includes location information and detected attributes for points of interest. The networked system analyzes the location information and the detected attributes to determine a height parameter and, in some cases, a characteristic associated with different levels of the multilevel roadway for points of interest. The height parameters and characteristics for each point of interest are stored to a database in a data storage. During runtime, the networked system receives a request that includes a point of interest. In response, the networked system detects a level of roadway at the point of interest using the database and real-time device data. Based on the detected level of the multilevel roadway, a route is generated and presented.

  • Patent number: 10602909
    Abstract: A dishwasher has an interior with a tub and a dish rack slidably attached to the tub. The dish rack has vertically-oriented side rail and a height adjustment system. The adjustment system includes height adjustment mechanisms alongside the walls of the dish rack for vertically shifting the dish rack between lowered and raised positions relative to the tub. Each of the adjustment mechanisms includes an adjuster arm fixed vertically relative to the tub, with a locking boss at the first end, and a locking clip on the adjuster arm having at least one locking tab adapted to couple with the locking boss to prevent the rack from shifting vertically relative to the adjuster arm. The locking clip has a pair of interference ribs engaging a pair of side rails to prevent rotational movement of the rack with respect to the dishwasher.

  • Publication number: 20200057914
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating sets of candidates comprising images and places within a threshold geographic proximity based on geographic information associated with each of the plurality of images and geographic information associated with each place. For each set of candidates, the systems and methods generate a similarity score based on a similarity between text extracted from each image and a place name, and the geographic information associated with each image and each place. For each place with an associated image as a potential match, the systems and methods generate a name similarity score based on matching the extracted text of the image to the place name, and store an image as place data associated with a place based on determining that the name similarity score for the extracted text associated with the image is higher than a second predetermined threshold.

  • Publication number: 20200034655
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a places dataset comprising place data from multiple data sources each having a plurality of place data. Based on the places dataset, the systems and methods generate local clusters comprising places located within a predetermined distance, generate probable pairs of places in each local cluster, and distribute the probable pairs to one or more processors to determine similar edges between one or more places in each local cluster based on a plurality of combined similarity measures indicating whether or not a place is similar to another place. The systems and methods further generate similar pairs based on the combined similarity measures and convert the similar pairs into connected components comprising groups of similar places based on a best similar edge from all the candidates for a group of similar places.
