Patent number: 11823241Abstract: In one example, a content catalog system may process a bulk set of errors to prioritize those errors that may benefit from manual review by a human error administrator. A catalog quality management sub-system of the content catalog system may receive an error output describing a catalog error for a product aspect of a product in a content catalog from an error detection module. The catalog quality management sub-system may categorize the catalog error by a degree of human interaction with an error fix determined from an error metric in the error output. The catalog quality management sub-system may apply an error fix to the catalog error based on the degree of human interaction.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Cedric Le Stunff, Victor Cazin, Alexandre Coutelier, Lucas Munoz, Nicolas Rival

Patent number: 11386131Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a multi-language search include a query receiver that receives a search query from a search user interface that includes a search term in a first language. A search results evaluator determines whether execution of the search query will produce a sufficient number of search results. A cross-language search manager, in response to determining that the processing of the search query will not produce the sufficient number of search results, obtains a first translated version of the search term, requests that a search be executed by a search engine based on at least the search term and the first translated version of the search term, receives a set of search results from the search engine based on the search; and returns the set of search results to the search user interface.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2018Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Victor Cazin, Laetitia Gabet, Edouard Hamonière, Christophe Pierret

Patent number: 11275723Abstract: A computer system compares databases, where each data record includes values for a plurality of fields, by applying database operations on database tables of the data records to reduce computations being performed. For each data record in a reference set, candidate matches are identified from among the data records in a target set by performing a join operation on the sets on one or more selected, normalized fields from the sets. This significantly reduced set of candidate matches can be further analyzed to determine how similar they are to the data record from the reference set.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2019Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventor: Victor Cazin

Patent number: 10554679Abstract: Aspects of an abuse detection system for a web service include an abuse detection engine executing on a server. The abuse detection engine includes a pre-processing module for aggregating a data set for processing and analysis; a suspiciousness test module for identifying suspicious content owners and suspicious users; a graphing module for finding connections between suspicious content owners and suspicious users; an analysis module for determining which groups are constituted of fraudulent or abusive accounts; and a notification generation and output module for generating a list of abusive entities and a notification for output to at least one of: the abusive entity, a digital content distribution company associated with the abusive entity, and a legal department or other entity for further investigation or action. Additionally, royalties for content consumptions associated with abusive accounts may be held.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2018Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Victor Cazin, Nicolas Rival
