Abstract: A tax category prediction model, which is trained using a tax category prediction dataset, provides a tax category prediction for an item having an item listing. The tax category prediction model enhances the ability and accuracy of identifying a tax category associated with an item for sale via the online marketplace (e.g., identifying the tax category before the item is offered for sale via the online marketplace). The tax category prediction dataset is generated based on one or more of a text embedding, an image embedding, another type of embedding, or a combination thereof. The text embedding may be identified by applying a natural language processing model to a text string of the item listing. The natural language processing model may comprise bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT).

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: detecting a source application for registering the source application to a target device; generating a first application portion for partitioning the source application for running the first application portion; and operating the first application portion for interacting with the source application for partially controlling an execution of the source application.

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: establishing a navigation session for routing from a starting point to a destination on a device; setting a transfer condition for continuing the navigation session between the device and a further device; and transferring the navigation session when the transfer condition is satisfied for routing with the further device for displaying on the further device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: generating a travel route having a first destination; assigning a first travel category for the first destination; detecting a detour to a second destination separate from the travel route; assigning a second travel category for the second destination; and capturing a mileage measurement for the travel route where the detour to the second destination is excluded based on the first travel category not being the same as the second travel category for displaying on a device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a location based system includes: submitting a tagged message having a message content, a trigger, and a recipient identifier; determining a location reading for locating a recipient associated with the recipient identifier; determining a temporal reading associated with the recipient identifier; and displaying the message content on a device having the recipient identifier, the message content displayed based on the trigger with the location reading, the temporal reading, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: monitoring an audio source; capturing an audio segment from the audio source; converting the audio segment into a text segment; parsing the text segment for an information segment; and performing a guidance function based on the information segment for displaying on a device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a location based system includes: detecting an event; establishing an event context time associated with the event; establishing a geofence associated with the event; and identifying an event participant, associated with the event, with the event participant within the geofence during the event context time for displaying on a device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a location based system includes: detecting an event representing a gathering of event participants; establishing a geofence associated with the event; and identifying a matching target from the event participants located within the geofence during the search time window for displaying on a device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a communication system includes: establishing a geofence; setting a reception time period; and receiving a message originating within the geofence and within the reception time period for displaying on a device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: generating a travel route having a business location for displaying on a device; calculating a current location along the travel route; identifying a travel segment with the current location; calculating a travel distance for the travel segment; and verifying the travel distance based on where the business location is within the travel segment.

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: executing a distance bounded function for displaying on a device; setting a reference location; receiving a user location for monitoring a location of the device; measuring a distance traveled with the user location from the reference location only when the distance bounded function is executing; and deactivating the distance bounded function when the distance traveled equals or exceeds a distance limit.

Abstract: A method of operation of a navigation system includes: detecting a surrounding view for detecting an object at a traffic lane to the left or the right of a device as well as in the front or at the rear of the device; presenting the surrounding view for displaying on the device; and generating an alert with a detection of the object at or exceeding a threshold.

Abstract: A method of operation of a location based system includes: detecting an event; establishing a geofence associated with the event; setting a search time window associated with the event; identifying an event participant that is associated with the event; and identifying a matching target as the event participant located within the geofence during the search time window for displaying on a device.

Abstract: A method of operation of a messaging system includes: receiving a source message; identifying a phrase of the source message; searching a translation hierarchy for the phrase, the translation hierarchy having multiple dictionaries in a priority order; and translating a target message, for displaying on a device, from the source message based on the translation hierarchy.
