  • Patent number: 10755033
    Abstract: Systems and methods for digital content editing and assessment are described. Software tools may perform heuristic processing of the digital content, producing computer-generated edits to the digital content. In addition, a user may accept, reject, or modify these computer-generated edits, and/or make additional edits to other portions of the digital content. The digital content may be subjected to additional processing steps prior to completion or publication. Various metrics associated with the editing of the digital content may be stored and analyzed to evaluate the performance of the digital content editing. This evaluation may be used to make changes to the editing process, such as to refine the detection heuristics for automated editing or modify other processes of the editing workflow.

  • Patent number: 10417933
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for selectively and dynamically determining one or more words of an electronic book to present with comprehension guides. For instance, an electronic device rendering an electronic book may determine whether to display some, all, or no words of the book with comprehension guides for words within the electronic book based on word difficulty, contextual importance or aspects of the user. Techniques are also provided for determining the content of comprehension guides to be presented with the words.

  • Patent number: 9760388
    Abstract: Described herein are systems for monitoring memory allocation and deallocation associated with compact virtual machine (CVM) instances operating on a host environment. In some cases, the systems output a tree structure that is viewable by a user to understand the native memory usage of the CVM instance stemming from java frames execution. In some particular instances, the tree structure may present to the user a code line by code line analysis of the memory allocation and deallocation.

  • Patent number: 9607105
    Abstract: Methods and systems of searching for text across platforms are usable to guide users to additional content for consumption. Search queries are based on text found within digital content and results are provided to indicate content from multiple different content items that contain the same or similar text. Cross-platform searches provide extensive breadth when a consumer is searching for similar information among a myriad of different sources. Additionally, search filtering may help provide more relevant results and search result weighting may provide prioritized lists of relevant content.

  • Patent number: 9471237
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for monitoring memory consumption in computing devices. Memory monitoring can be performed by tracking multiple parameters on both a regular schedule and in response to the detection of certain events. These memory parameters can include the total amount of free memory in the system, the memory usage associated with certain processes, and stack traces of current threads. These memory parameters can be stored locally in a memory log on the device's secondary storage and then transmitted to a remote test system for detailed analysis along with the memory logs from other devices.

  • Patent number: 9251228
    Abstract: A method and system for eliminating global and local noise in periodical items is described. An exemplary method may include preprocessing each item in a set of items using one or more rules, removing global noise from the set of items using semantic similarities across items in the set of items, and removing local noise in each item in the set of items based on text content in each item.
