Patent number: 12619825Abstract: List-based entity name detection implementations are described that detect entity names in electronic textural documents. In one implementation, unknown entity names are detected. In another implementation, ambiguous entity names are detected and disambiguated. In yet another implementation, generic entity names are detected and associated with an applicable species entity name.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2023Date of Patent: May 5, 2026Assignee: HG INSIGHTS, INC.Inventor: Robert J. Fox

Publication number: 20250278747Abstract: Entity functional area and product use identification implementations are described that identify functional areas of an entity and products used by these functional areas. In general, this involves generating a functional area classifier to identify one or more functional areas of the entity inferred in a document, identifying one or more product names found in the document, identifying an entity name in the document (if not already known), and establishing at least one combination of the entity name, the functional area, and a product name for each product name found in the document. In some implementations, at least one of the entity location or the vendor of the named product or the technology designation of the product, is identified in the document and included in the combinations. Multiple documents are processed, and the resulting established combinations are output.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2025Publication date: September 4, 2025Applicant: HG Insights, Inc.Inventors: Robert J. Fox, Abhinav Kaitha

Publication number: 20250272715Abstract: Job profile data analysis implementations that are described herein generally analyzes job profile data, and in various implementations uses the analysis to identify marketing and sales opportunities and threats. More particularly, the job profile data is used to identify individuals who have recently changed jobs and have taken on a decision maker or influencer role in their new job with regard to the purchase of products and/or services. Marketing and sales opportunities and threats are gleaned from this knowledge and the knowledge of what products and services were used in the individual's previous and new jobs.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2025Publication date: August 28, 2025Applicant: HG Insights, Inc.Inventors: Robert J. Fox, Lauren Wong

Publication number: 20250209478Abstract: AI maturity scoring implementations that are described herein generally assess the degree of immersion an entity has in AI matters. The AI maturity score for an entity is a combination of three components, namely an AI component, a data science component, and a data maturity component. The AI component quantifies the level of use of AI technologies at the entity. The data science component quantifies the level of an entity's data science expertise on a location basis. And the data maturity component quantifies the degree to which the entity is involved in using data technologies. An AI maturity report is also generated that includes a listing of, for each entity of interest, the AI maturity score computed for that entity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2023Publication date: June 26, 2025Inventors: Robert J. Fox, Lauren Wong

Publication number: 20240062229Abstract: The probability that an entity will purchase a product is predicted. This prediction involves receiving input data in the form of entries each of which represents an interest event. Through a series of iterations, a final matrix is generated from the input data entries by assigning an entity-product identifier pair associated with each interest event to a different location in the matrix, along with a time identifier indicative of how far back in time the interest event occurred from a prescribed date of interest. A supervised machine learning technique is employed to create a final prediction model for each product of interest using the final matrix as input. For each product, its prediction model is applied to the input data to estimate the probability that an entity will purchase the product within a future time period.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Robert J. Fox, Samuel B. Chapin, Xining Li

Patent number: 11829386Abstract: Resume data identification implementations are described that identify anonymized resume corpus data pertaining to the same individual. In one implementation, identifying this data in the anonymized resume corpus involves segmenting the corpus into resume snippets and clustering the resume snippets into groups. Within each group the resume snippets potentially pertain to the same individual. In addition, one or more optional filtering operations can be performed to remove snippets from a group that are less likely to be associated with the same person. This filtering is especially useful when the resume corpus is large.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: HG INSIGHTS, INC.Inventors: Robert J. Fox, Samuel B. Chapin, Jonathan C. Frey, Christopher R. Fredregill

Patent number: 6802964Abstract: A tipping pit water reclaiming system for concrete reclaimers which includes one or more tanks with a pivot support and hydraulic pistons for tipping the tanks to remove the settled solids. Clarified water from the tipping tanks overflows into a pump tank where it is returned by pump to the reclaimer. The pump tank includes a second pump for pumping excess clarified water into a storage tank for return to the tipping tank after the cement solids have been emptied out of the tipping tank. The second pump prevents the overflowing of water onto the ground from the tipping tank or pump tank as solids accumulate in the tipping tank. The second pump is controlled by float activated switches positioned at predetermined levels within the pump tank.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2002Date of Patent: October 12, 2004Inventors: Mark Preisser, Robert J. Fox
