  • Patent number: 11423897
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for generating an adaptive response to a user request. Input indicative of a user request may be received and utilized to identify an item in an electronic catalog. Title segments may be identified from the item's title. Significant segments of the user request may be determined. In response to the user request, a shortened title may be generated from the identified title segments and provided as output at the user device (e.g., via audible output provided at a speaker of the user device, via textual output, or the like). At least one of the title segments provided in the shortened title may correlate to the significant segment identified from the user request. In some embodiments, the length and content of the shortened title may vary based at least in part on the contextual intent of the user's request.

  • Patent number: 11087742
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for generating adaptive feedback in response to a user request. Input indicative of a user request may be received and utilized to identify an item in an electronic catalog. A title for the item may be retrieved and provided, as input, to a machine-learning model. The machine-learning model may be trained to identify one or more segments of an input title. A shortened title may be generated from these identified segments and provided as output at the user device (e.g., via audible output provided at a speaker of the user device). In some embodiments, the length and content of the shortened title may vary based at least in part on the contextual intent of the user's request.

  • Patent number: 7840923
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for analyzing and/or designing integrated circuits using virtual transparent cells disclosed. Some embodiments comprise calculating model values for virtual transparent cells or elements of an integrated circuit design varying a transparency variable in modeling equations, and allowing replacement of the cell with a wire based upon the calculations. Varying the value of the transparency value for the calculations may allow the virtual transparent cells to be continuously modeled between a wire and a conventional version of the cell. Some embodiments may comprise a cell library with one or more modeling formulas for one or more virtual transparent cells and a response module to calculate different model values of the modeling formulas.

  • Publication number: 20090055325
    Abstract: A system and a method for an interactive analysis platform for trading securities which combines a plurality of different types of analytical information in a chart presented in a graphical display. The system provides the ability to form a community of traders as well as virtual trading room. At least one type of information provided in the graphical display relates to quotes for the securities being traded while at least one other type of information provided is an analysis of trading information. Preferably the analysis of trading information includes inputs from securities traders. Preferably, the securities being traded are related to currency, such as for example FOREX trades. For the purpose of description only and without wishing to be limited in any way, the discussion below centers around traded securities that are related to currency, although it should be noted that according to some embodiments, the present invention may also optionally be applied to stocks, bonds or any other type of security.
