Patent number: 11550858Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting and verifying closed places (e.g., claims no longer in business) from trip data are provided. A networked system accesses trip data associated with the POI. The networked system processes the trip data to generate at least two time buckets based on timestamps from the trip data associated with the POI, and calculates trip counts associated with the POI for each of the time buckets. Using a machine learning algorithm and based on the at least two time buckets, the networked system determines that the trip counts show a decline over time that indicates that the POI is likely closed. In response to the determining, the networked system updates a database to indicate the POI is closed.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Alvin AuYoung, Livia Zarnescu Yanez, Kyle Elliot DeHovitz, Ted Douglas Herringshaw, Joshua Lodge Ross, Vikram Saxena, Chandan Prakash Sheth, Shivendra Pratap Singh, Sheng Yang

Patent number: 10984060Abstract: Systems and methods for improving attribute data for a point of interest (POI) are provided. A networked system accesses trip data associated with the POI. The networked system generates, using a processor-implemented clustering algorithm, a first spatial cluster and a second spatial cluster using coordinates corresponding to the POI indicated in the trip data. A centroid for the first spatial cluster and a centroid for the second spatial cluster are identified by the networked system. The networked system determines that a difference in distance between the centroid for the first spatial cluster and the centroid for the second spatial cluster meets or transgresses a centroid distance threshold. In response to the determining, a database is updated to indicate a new attribute for the POI, the new attribute corresponds to an attribute associated with either the first spatial cluster or the second spatial cluster.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Alvin AuYoung, Livia Zarnescu Yanez, Kyle Elliot DeHovitz, Ted Douglas Herringshaw, Joshua Lodge Ross, Vikram Saxena, Chandan Prakash Sheth, Shivendra Pratap Singh, Sheng Yang

Patent number: 10902033Abstract: Systems and methods for improving accuracy of geographic position data are provided. A networked system mines ticket data from content of the ticket. Based on the ticket data, a determination is made that the ticket indicates an issue with a trip involving a point of interest (POI). The networked system extracts trip data from a trip log corresponding to the trip involving the POI, and identifies, from a data storage, stored attributes of the POI. The networked system analyzes the ticket data, trip data, and attributes to determine a workflow to improve accuracy of the POI, whereby the analyzing comprises determining a priority level to verify accuracy of the POI. The workflow is triggered based on the priority level to verify accuracy of the POI.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2017Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Alvin AuYoung, Sheng Yang, Chandan Prakash Sheth, Livia Zarnescu Yanez, Chun-Chen Kuo, Shivendra Pratap Singh, Vikram Saxena

Patent number: 10699398Abstract: Systems and methods of deep learning coordinate prediction using satellite and service data are disclosed herein. In some example embodiments, for each one of a plurality of places, a computer system trains a deep learning model based on training data of the plurality of places. The deep leaning model is configured to generate a predicted geographical location of a place based on satellite image data and service data associated with the place. The training data for each place comprises satellite image data of the place, service data, and a ground truth geographical location of the place. The service data comprises at least one of pick-up data indicating a geographical location at which a provider started transporting a requester in servicing a request associated with the place or drop-off data indicating a geographical location at which the provider completed transporting the requester in servicing the request associated with the place.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2018Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Chandan Prakash Sheth, Minzhen Yi, Livia Zarnescu Yanez, Sheng Yang, Shivendra Pratap Singh, Alvin AuYoung, Vikram Saxena

Publication number: 20190171755Abstract: Various embodiments determine relevance of place data by determining whether a place record is relevant based on a set of features associated with the place record. For a given place record, a set of features may be generated based on values of one or more attributes included in the given place record. A given place record may be processed by at least one machine learning model, such as a classifier, which receives as input a set of features of the given place record and outputs a prediction score indicating the certainty or probability that the given place record is associated with, or belongs to, a particular class. The certainty/probability of association between a given place record and a particular class can assist some embodiments in determining (e.g., predicting) whether the given place record is relevant or non-relevant for an intended use, such as a software application for a ride service.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2017Publication date: June 6, 2019Inventors: Livia Zarnescu Yanez, Shivendra Pratap Singh, Chandan Sheth, Alvin AuYoung, Sheng Yang, Vikram Saxena

Publication number: 20190171732Abstract: Various embodiments determine accuracy of place data by determining a context for a place record (that is included in the place data) and determining accuracy of the place record based on a set of criteria associated with the context determined for the place record. For some embodiments, the set of criteria is used in place of, or in conjunction with, another set of fixed criteria for determining accuracy of the place record. Context for the given place record may be determined based on a set of features for the given place record, and the set of features may be generated (e.g., derived or extracted) based on values of one or more attributes (e.g., record fields or fields) included in the given place record. For some embodiments, a quality of a place record is determined based on at least the determination of an accuracy of the place record.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2017Publication date: June 6, 2019Inventors: Livia Zarnescu Yanez, Shivendra Pratap Singh, Chandan Sheth, Alvin AuYounG, Sheng Yang, Vikram Saxena
