Patent number: 11886474Abstract: In accordance with one or more embodiments of the invention, a method and system are provided of processing a search query entered by a user of a device having a text input interface with overloaded keys. The search query is directed at identifying an item from a set of items. Each of the items has one or more associated descriptors. The system receives from the user an ambiguous search query directed at identifying a desired item. The search query is a prefix substring of each of at least two words relating to the desired item. The system dynamically identifies a group of one or more items from the set of items having one or more descriptors matching the search query as the user enters each character of the search query. The system outputs identification of the one or more items of the identified group to be displayed on the device operated by the user.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2020Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Veveo, Inc.Inventors: Sashikumar Venkataraman, Rakesh Barve, Pankaj Garg, Pranav Rajanala, Murali Aravamudan, Ajit Rajasekharan

Publication number: 20230273966Abstract: Methods of and systems for dynamically rearranging search results into hierarchically organized concept clusters are provided. A method of searching for and presenting content items as an arrangement of conceptual clusters to facilitate further search and navigation on a display-constrained device includes providing a set of content items and receiving incremental input to incrementally identify search terms for content items. Content items are selected and grouped into sets based on how the incremental input matches various metadata associated with the content items. The selected content items are grouped into explicit conceptual clusters and user-implied conceptual clusters based on metadata in common to the selected content items. The clustered content items are presented according to the conceptual clusters into which they are grouped.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Sashikumar Venkataraman, Pankaj Garg, Pranav Rajanala

Publication number: 20190253762Abstract: A method and system are provided for identifying a television content item desired by a television viewer from a set of television content items. Each of the television content items has one or more associated descriptors. The system receives from the television viewer a reduced text search entry directed at identifying the desired television content item. The search entry is a prefix substring of one or more words relating to the desired television content item. The system dynamically identifies a group of one or more television content items from the set of television content items having one or more descriptors matching the search entry as the television viewer enters each character of the search entry. The system then transmits the names of the one or more television content items of the identified group to be displayed on a device operated by the television viewer.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 29, 2019Publication date: August 15, 2019Inventors: Sashikumar Venkataraman, Rakesh Barve, Pranav Rajanala, Rahul Agrawal, Murali Aravamudan, Ajit Rajasekharan
