Patent number: 11803541Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices supporting primitive-based query generation are described. A database system may receive a natural language query associated with a subset of data sets stored at the database system, determine a set of tokens included in the natural language query, and label one or more tokens of the set of tokens with one or more primitives from a set of supported primitives associated with the subset of data sets. The database system may determine a set of higher order concepts corresponding to query operations, query conditions, or both based on the one or more labeled tokens. The database system may train a neural network to learn a grammatical structure of the natural language query and generate a database query for querying the database system based on the one or more labeled tokens, the set of higher order concepts, and the neural network.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2020Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Zuye Zheng, Ryoji Osawa, James Diefenderfer, Nadeem Marfani Aboobaker, Praveen Pendey, Sameer Sethi

Patent number: 11658930Abstract: A method for managing a user's email subscriptions has been developed. The method provides a user interface (UI) to the user that allows the user to view and select multiple stand-alone components across multiple dashboard displays for an email subscription to an email address. The user's selections are received via the UI. A display of each of the subscribed stand-alone components is rendered periodically based on the user's preference. The rendered displays are combined into a single email message that is sent to the email address upon completion of the rendering of the displays.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Dylan Thom, Ryoji Osawa, Pragya Anand

Patent number: 11418473Abstract: A method for managing a user's email subscriptions has been developed. The method provides a user interface (UI) to the user that allows the user to view and select multiple stand-alone components across multiple dashboard displays for an email subscription to an email address. The user's selections are received via the UI and include one or more stand-alone components from a first dashboard display and one or more stand-alone components from a second dashboard display in the email subscription. The first dashboard display is not the same was the second dashboard display. A display of each of the subscribed stand-alone components is rendered periodically based on the user's preference. The rendered displays are combined into a single email message that is sent to the email address upon completion of the rendering of the displays.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2021Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Dylan Thom, Ryoji Osawa, Pragya Anand

Patent number: 11086893Abstract: System, method, and computer product embodiments are described for querying a database using natural language queries (NLQ) to produce actionable results in an answer card. The method allows a user to take further action with the answer card by editing the card contents, manipulating the way data is displayed, or querying the answer results for more details of the data. By the method, the user may continue exploration of the data, use the results to collaborate with others, or build a story from the data in a presentation format, such as a dashboard, while maintaining access to the real-time data of the database through the answer card. System and computer product embodiments implement the method.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2018Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Raymon Sutedjo-The, James D. Vogt, Dylan Thom, Vlad Eroshin, Dai Duong Doan, Ryoji Osawa

Patent number: 11055353Abstract: Embodiments are described for enabling a user to query a database using natural language and receive results without requiring the user to manipulate or know details of the database contents. The user is guided in the creation of the natural language query by suggested predetermined queries from a template. Natural language is parsed using the template. The approach allows a user's query words to be completed automatically from the template as the user inputs the words. The approach further allows the next suggested parts of the query to be automatically typed from the template ahead of the user's cursor. Other features provide feedback to the user for invalid or irrelevant queries that cannot be parsed, including suggesting complete predetermined queries from the template. The approach helps the user focus the query on exactly what the user seeks to learn from the database without complex, process-intensive parsing.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2018Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Vlad Eroshin, Dylan Thom, Ryoji Osawa, Dai Duong Doan
