Patent number: 11838595Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a networking system that provides a user experience in which users of the networking system can interact with user-generated digital content items to select and receive information about one or more products. In particular, the systems and methods involve identifying products shown within user-generated digital content items and associating the user-generated digital content items with the identified products. In addition, where a user selects a product shown within a digital content item, the systems and methods involve selectively identifying other user-generated digital content items for the user based on a coefficient between the user and the other user-generated digital content items. Moreover, the systems and methods involve tracking user-interactions with respect to digital content items and generating and providing a creation insight including an identification of one or more products predicted to engage users of the networking system.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2021Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Meta Platforms, Inc.Inventors: Sanchan Sahai Saxena, Sergey Markov, Fei Wang, Yi-Wei Wu, Ed Ignatius Tanghal Salvana, William Taube Schurman, Youssef Ahres

Patent number: 10606466Abstract: An online system presents a feed of content including content items and one or more scrollable content units to a user of the online system. A scrollable content unit includes an ordered set of content items sharing a common attribute, such as advertisement requests associated with the same advertising campaign or images associated with a common subject. The scrollable content unit is scrollable in a direction that is orthogonal to an orientation of the feed of content, allowing presentation of additional content items from the ordered set when a user navigates through the ordered set. When all content items in the ordered set have been displayed by the scrollable content unit, an interaction with the scrollable content unit by the user presents additional content associated with the ordered set of content items, such as a page associated with the common attribute of content items in the ordered set.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2015Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Andrew Kanter, Sanchan Sahai Saxena, Mohit Rajani, Andrew Sean Yang

Patent number: 10455049Abstract: An online system presents a feed of content including content items and one or more scrollable content units to a user of the online system. A scrollable content unit includes an ordered set of content items and a display area presenting fewer than all of the content items of the ordered set at a time. The user navigates through the ordered set of content items in the display area by interacting with the scrollable content unit. If the user navigates through fewer than all of the content items in the ordered set, the online system modifies the ordered set. If the scrollable content unit is again provided to the user, the scrollable content unit presents content items based the modified ordered set. For example, the modified ordered set prioritizes presentation of content items from the ordered set that were not previously presented to the user.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2015Date of Patent: October 22, 2019Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Andrew Kanter, Sanchan Sahai Saxena, Mohit Rajani

Patent number: 10079794Abstract: A first online system allows a user to create content items for presentation in a second online system without having an account in the second online system. The first online system maintains identifying information associated with users of the first online system. The first online system may also maintain a set of permissions identifying users of the first online system authorized to create content items associated with each user of the first online system. Based on the information, the first online system enables its users to create content items for presentation to users of the second online system without requiring the users to create accounts on the second online system. The content items may include one or more types of objects maintained by the first online system that help identify the user associated with the content item.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2016Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Sanchan Sahai Saxena, Mohit Rajani, David S.

Publication number: 20180144256Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes using a processing system to access a first set and a second set of user accounts in an online social network. The first set and second set of user accounts are predetermined as belonging to a first category and a second category, respectively. From each user account in the first and second set, the system may extract feature values corresponding to a set of predetermined feature types, which includes at least a feature type relating to profile information and at least a feature type relating to posting information. The system may then train a machine-learning model using the extracted feature values. The trained machine-learning model may be configured to predict whether a third user account in the online social network belongs to the first category or the second category, based feature values corresponding to the feature types extracted from the third user account.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2016Publication date: May 24, 2018Inventors: Sanchan Sahai Saxena, Alvin Ko, Veera S.
