  • Publication number: 20240184792
    Abstract: A flexible listings search system can receive and return results for flexible listing searches. For example, the system can perform micro-flexible searches (e.g., plus or minus a few days) or super flexible searches (e.g., a time span in one or more months), using listing arrays that can be rapidly accessed to efficiently identify and return results. The search system can further perform flexible destination searches for different categories of accommodations for display in a viewport (e.g., map bounding box). The system can further perform fuzzy searches to identify and return broader results for flexible queries.

  • Publication number: 20240184501
    Abstract: In an example, a first electronic device establishes a connection to a second electronic device. The second electronic device projects first projection data to the first electronic device; and when a distance between a third electronic device and the second electronic device is less than or equal to a preset distance, the second electronic device sends notification information to the third electronic device, where the notification information indicates that the second electronic device is performing screen projection. The third electronic device sends second projection data to the second electronic device in response to receiving the notification information. In response to receiving the second projection data, the second electronic device projects the first projection data and the second projection data to the first electronic device based on orientation information between the second electronic device and the third electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20240164059
    Abstract: A vapor chamber structure includes an aluminum upper plate, an aluminum lower plate, a working fluid and multiple micron-sized recesses. The aluminum upper plate has a first side and a second side. The aluminum lower plate has a third side and a fourth side. The aluminum upper and lower plates are correspondingly mated with each other to define an airtight chamber. The working fluid is filled in the airtight chamber. The micron-sized recesses are directly formed on the third side. The micron-sized recesses are upward raised and/or downward recessed from the third side in the form of multiple small puddles so as to enhance the boiling efficiency of the working fluid in the airtight chamber and promote liquid-vapor circulation performance of the vapor chamber. In addition, when used in a low-temperature environment, the vapor chamber structure prevents the working fluid in the airtight chamber from freezing.

One method includes accessing experiment results, for A/B testing of a first model, that comprise information regarding engagement with a first set of items presented to users, each item being presented within an ordered list of results. A position bias is calculated for positions within the ordered list of results where the items were presented. A machine-learning program is trained to obtain a second model using a training set comprising values for features that include the calculated position bias. The method includes detecting a second set of items to be ranked for presentation to a first user, and calculates, using the second model, a relevance score for the second set of items, which are ranked based on the respective relevance score and presented on a display.
