  • Patent number: 10866719
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for auto-scrolling devices and methods. In one embodiment, an example method may include determining a content feed that includes first content and second content for presentation at a user device, and determining a first relevance value for the first content. Example methods may include determining that the first content is relevant to a user account associated with a user of the user device based at least in part on the first relevance value, determining a second relevance value for the second content, and determining that the second content is irrelevant based at least in part on the second relevance value. Example methods may include determining a first scroll speed to scroll through the content feed when the first content is presented by the user device, and determining a second scroll speed to scroll through the content feed when the second content is presented.

  • Patent number: 10853867
    Abstract: Described herein are a system and methods for providing action recommendations to a user that are likely to result in performance of a high-value action. In some embodiments, the user is compared to one or more other users in order to identify high-value actions for that user. Once at least one high-value action has been identified, a sequence of actions may be generated to include that high-value action using prediction model data that includes probability information. The sequence of actions is then assessed to determine a gateway action within the sequence of actions that is likely to be performed by the user and has a high likelihood of resulting in subsequent performance of the high-value action. The gateway action may then be presented to the user.

  • Patent number: 10846517
    Abstract: Techniques for identifying an emotional response and/or emotional state for a user in response to the user interacting with content may be described herein. For example, a series of facial images of a user may be captured by a user device and transmitted to a service computer that analyzes the images to identify changes in facial animation parameters. An emotional state and/or response may be determined by the service computer by utilizing the change in the facial animation parameters and a facial action coding system. In embodiments, the service computer may edit subsequent content prior to transmitting the content to the user device, utilize a particular communication channel to communicate the content, or identify a workflow that indicates a series of actions and/or content to be presented to the user device based on the determined emotional state/response of the user.

  • Patent number: 10769371
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for systems and methods for automatic execution of actions responsive to queries. Example methods include determining a set of seed words for input at a first search engine, determining a first autocomplete result associated with a first word at the first search engine, and determining a second autocomplete result associated with the first autocomplete result at the first search engine. Example methods include determining a set of user interaction histories that comprises queries input at a second search engine, and determining that a first user interaction history includes a query with a portion of the second autocomplete result. Example methods include determining a user action performed after the query, and associating the user action with the query in a database, such that subsequent inputs of the query cause the first user action to automatically occur.

  • Patent number: 10440431
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating automated video scripting, Video frames may be analyzed to determine scores indicative of the association between a characteristic of the video frame and an attribute of a theme associated with a particular person. Then, video frames with particular scores can be added together to automatically create a video script. Neural networks can be used to determine the scores. The neural network may also be trained using training data, and updated based on the interaction of a person to a video script.

  • Patent number: 10397662
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for generating live broadcasts of product usage from multiple users. In one embodiment, an example method may include determining a product identifier of a product for which a product lifecycle video is to be generated, determining a first camera to use for capturing a first portion of a video of the product, where the first portion corresponds to a first lifecycle stage of the product, and capturing the first portion. Example methods may include determining a second camera to use for capturing a second portion of video of the product, where the second portion corresponds to a second lifecycle stage of the product, capturing the second portion, and causing presentation of the video.
