Patent number: 11687992Abstract: A restaurant service system includes a restaurant server adapted to communicate with diner communication devices and restaurant communication devices. The restaurant server builds a food taxonomy including dishes, dish attributes and dish ingredients. The dishes are mapped from menu items. The server also trains dish classifiers and applies the dish classifiers to map menu items to dishes. Dish attributes are derived from search logs and dish ingredients are extracted from menu item descriptions. The server determines the search intent of a diner based on her search terms. Food search is conducted based on the taxonomy and the search intent with consideration of restaurant similarity and dish popularity. The server also provides dish recommendations based on taste similarity between diners.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: GRUBHUB HOLDINGS INC.Inventors: Maria Belousova, Eric Farng, Justin Charles Bozonier, Thomas Eugene Hayden, III, Matthew Maloney

Publication number: 20220188742Abstract: A method and system for determining the time of delivery of an order is performed by a service system. The system receives the order from a customer device, and maps the customer telephone number to a routing telephone number. The system then sends the order with the routing telephone number to a provider, such as a restaurant. The provider prepares the order. A deliveryman calls the routing telephone number when he delivers the order to the customer. The system sets the reception time of the call as the time of delivery of the order. The system then forwards the call to the customer.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2021Publication date: June 16, 2022Inventors: JONATHAN PETER TREBLE, LEE FREDERICK BAKER, MATTHEW MALONEY

Patent number: 10846639Abstract: A system includes one or more server hardware computing devices communicatively coupled to a network. The one or more server hardware computing devices include one or more processors and memory storing specific computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to receive a first request to calculate a trust score for a user associated with a user account of an online proctored examination platform. The trust score represents results of a risk analysis of the user. The instructions cause the system to obtain internal data of the online proctored examination platform, the internal data describing usage of the online proctored examination platform by the user, perform the risk analysis using at least the internal data to produce the trust score, associate the trust score with the user account, and perform an action based on the trust score.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2018Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: PEARSON EDUCATION, INC.Inventors: Gregory Anderson, Wayne Bailey, Colleen M.
