Patent number: 12346923Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for probabilistic search biasing and recommendations. A system including at least one processor may be configured to receive an input relating to an identified item, generate a database query based on the input, and receive a response to the database query. The response may include information on comparable items similar to the identified item, and corresponding metadata for the comparable items. The corresponding metadata may include a range of values corresponding to the comparable items. The system may be further configured to generate a probability score for at least two values of the range of values, based at least on the corresponding metadata for the comparable items. The system may be further configured to output at least a suggested value based on at least the generated probability score for the range of values and prompt for further input.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2022Date of Patent: July 1, 2025Assignee: MERCARI, INC.Inventors: Byong Mok Oh, Dhruv Mehrotra, Chiaki Osaka, Naoya Makino, Patrick Michael Wiseman, Minami Sueyasu

Patent number: 12260351Abstract: Methods and systems for automatically predicting the probability of regulatory compliance approval based on data contained in a data structure. A data structure can be configured to include data collated and collected from one or more regulators (e.g., regulatory agencies) and one or more value chain participants. Such data is inclusive of data indicative of actual approval-request results of applications for regulatory approval by one or more regulators and variable weights assigned to different data elements. A prediction can be then made as to the probability that an application for regulatory approval by a value chain participant will be approved by a regulator based on the data collated and collected and contained in the data structure. This approach predicts the probability that an application for regulatory approval by a value chain participant will be approved and also predicts what is missing for a regulatory approval application.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2018Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Jonathan Levine, Ray Uri Merriam, Stephen Kyle Korndoerfer, Larry Glass, Michael Wiseman, Vijayakrishna Nama, Joseph Martin St. Germaine

Patent number: 11115462Abstract: A distributed system is disclosed in which one or more servers respond to requests for content including hyperlinks. Hyperlinks provide an interactive visual manifestation of an underlying reference to a resource. By using a graphical user interface provided by the device, a user is able to select a hyperlink, and thereby control the device to obtain the resource to which the underlying reference refers. However, if a user selects a hyperlink and the device is unable to follow the underlying reference to obtain the resource, user disappointment results. By arranging the server, on providing visual content including one or more hyperlinks, to attempt (212) to follow the references underlying the hyperlinks, and to alter (216) the appearance of any hyperlink for which the underlying reference could not be followed, users are alerted to the likelihood that selecting the hyperlink will not lead to them obtaining the resource. In this way, user disappointment is avoided.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2014Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: BRITISH TELECOMMUNICATIONS public limited companyInventor: Richard Michael Wiseman

Patent number: 11074634Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for probabilistic item matching and searching. A system including at least one processor may be configured to receive a data point relating to a specific item, generate a database query based on the data point, and receive a response to the database query. The response may include multiple candidate items relating to the specific item. The system may be further configured to receive a first input relating to the specific item and generate a probability score for at least two candidate items of the multiple candidate items in the response, based on at least the second input. The system may be further configured to select a selected item from the candidate items, based on the probability score for the selected item. The system may be further configured to output a reference to, or value representing, the selected item.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: Mercari, Inc.Inventors: Byong Mok Oh, Dhruv Mehrotra, Chiaki Osaka, Naoya Makino, Patrick Michael Wiseman, Minami Sueyasu

Patent number: 10422009Abstract: A system for classifying thyroid nodule tissue as malignant or benign is provided that is based on the identification of sets of gene transcripts, which are characterized in that changes in expression of each gene transcript within a set of gene transcripts can be correlated to with either malignant or benign thyroid nodule disease. The thyroid classification system provides for sets of “thyroid classifying” target sequences and further provides for combinations of polynucleotide probes and primers derived there from. These combinations of polynucleotide probes can be provided in solution or as an array. The combination of probes and the arrays can be used for diagnosis. The invention further provides further methods of classifying thyroid nodule tissue.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2017Date of Patent: September 24, 2019Assignee: GenomeDx Biosciences Inc.Inventors: Elai Davicioni, Sam Michael Wiseman
