  • Patent number: 12353461
    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer-readable media enable various techniques related to semantic navigation. One aspect is a technique for displaying semantically derived facets in the search engine interface. Each of the facets comprises faceted search results. Each of the faceted search results is displayed in association with user interface elements for including or excluding the faceted search result as additional search terms to subsequently refine the search query. Another aspect automatically infers new metadata from the content and from existing metadata and then automatically annotates the content with the new metadata to improve recall and navigation. Another aspect identifies semantic annotations by determining semantic connections between the semantic annotations and then dynamically generating a topic page based on the semantic connections.

  • Publication number: 20250218206
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for synthesizing large amounts of human-computer interaction data that is representative of real-world user data. An automated screenshot capture engine may cause an automated agent to use an application or a website in a manner designed to mimic real-world human-computer interaction. Screenshots are captured to record how a user might interact with the application. Metadata, such as window location and size, may be obtained for each screenshot. Screenshots and corresponding metadata may be automatically annotated with a large language model to indicate the context of the application and/or computer system when the screenshot was captured. Data created in this way may be used to validate AI-based software application features or to train (or retrain) a machine learning model that predicts human-computer interactions. Automated synthesis of training data significantly increases the scale of data that can be obtained for training while also reducing computing and financial costs.

  • Publication number: 20250214133
    Abstract: A method of casting metal parts such as valve seat inserts comprises pouring molten metal into a gating system of a mold plate stack wherein mold plates are located between a cover mold and a bottom mold, the gating system including a casting header, down-sprue, at least one distribution runner, at least one up-sprue, runners and gates in fluid communication with mold cavities configured to form metal parts, and the gating system including at least one internal passage in the cover mold in fluid communication with the up-sprue and the down-sprue. During filling of the mold cavities with the molten metal, air trapped in the mold plate stack is expelled to surrounding atmospheric air via the up-sprue, the internal passage and an upper end of the down-sprue. The molten metal is solidified to form cast metal parts interconnected by solidified metal in the down-sprue, distribution runner, runners and gates, up-sprue and internal passage.
