  • Publication number: 20190205372
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes identifying a plurality of dyslexic users on an online social network. The plurality of dyslexic users may be identified based on content objects posted by these users over a particular time period, where the content objects may include one or more of word-level errors or sentence-level errors. A machine-learning model may be trained for text correction using a corpus of social network data, which may include at least the content objects with one or more of word-level errors or sentence-level errors, and a corresponding set of corrected content objects. A text string including one or more errors may be received from a client system associated with a first user. The text string may be transformed into a vector representation using an encoder of the machine-learning model. A corrected text string may be generated from the vector representation using a decoder of the machine-learning model.

  • Patent number: 10282606
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a web page is obtained using a web page address stored in a first record and is parsed to extract one or more images from the web page along with a first plurality of features for each of the one or more images from the web page. Information about each image of the web page and the extracted first plurality of features for the web page are input into a supervised machine learning classifier to calculate a logo confidence score for each image of the web page, the logo confidence score indicating the probability that the image is an organization logo. In response to a particular image in the web page having a logo confidence score transgressing a first threshold, the particular image is injected into an organization logo field of the first record.

  • Patent number: 10242258
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a fuzzy join operation is performed by, for each pair of records, evaluating a first plurality of features for both records in the pair of records by calculating term frequency-inverse term frequency (TF-IDF) for each token of each field relevant to each feature and based on the calculated TF-IDF for each token of each field relevant to each feature, computing a similarity score based on the similarity function by adding a weight assigned to the TF-IDF for any token that appears in both records. Then a graph data structure is created, having a node for each record in the plurality of records and edges between each of the nodes, except, for each record pair having a similarity score that does not transgress a first threshold, causing no edge between the nodes for the record pair to appear in the graph data structure.

  • Publication number: 20190086486
    Abstract: A nonlinear terahertz (THz) spectroscopy technique uses a sample illuminated by two THz pulses separately. The illumination generates two signals BA and BB, corresponding to the first and second THz pulse, respectively, after interaction with the sample. The interaction includes excitation of at least one ESR transition in the sample. The sample is also illuminated by the two THz pulses together, with an inter-pulse delay ?, generating a third signal BAB. A nonlinear signal BNL is then derived via BNL=BAB?BA?BB. This nonlinear signal BNL can be then processed (e.g., Fourier transform) to study the properties of the sample.
