Patent number: 10242088Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for query suggestion formulation for multi-source queries, for ranking multi-source search results, and/or for exposing contextual launch functionality through multi-source search results of a multi-source search interface. In an example, a query suggestion may be provided for a partial search query based upon an implied content source that corresponds to a search intent of a user (e.g., an intent to view videos, as opposed to images, of houses). In another example, relevancy ranks may be assigned to content sources based upon a content type preference of a user, and search results may be provided from content sources having relevancy rankings above a relevancy threshold. In another example, links to applications and/or execution contexts may be embedded within search results so that applications may be launched into contextually aware states from the search results.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2014Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Sandy Wong, Erik Theodore Bergman, Yu-Ting Kuo, Evan Ming Lew

Patent number: 10055433Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for indexing referenced content and/or for deep content searching. In an example, parent content (e.g., an instant message from a friend about a celebrity) may be evaluated to identify a reference (e.g., a URL) to referenced content hosted by a content source (e.g., a photo shared through a photo sharing service). The referenced content may be acquired from the content source, and may be evaluated to identify a search term that is descriptive of the referenced content (e.g., a name of the celebrity in the photo). The parent content and the referenced content may be indexed into a search index using the search term. In an example, responsive to a search query corresponding to the parent content and/or the search term, the parent content and/or the referenced content may be provided as search results.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2014Date of Patent: August 21, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Evan Ming Lew, Sandy Wong, Erik Theodore Bergman, Yu-Ting Kuo

Patent number: 9990052Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that provide contextual services are provided. Embodiments of the present invention allow an input mechanism to provide contextual services. Exemplary input mechanisms include a keyboard, a gesture interface, and a speech interface. These inputs may be used to provide user input into one or more applications running on a computer. The contextual services provided include composition assistance, grammatical assistance, communication-context assistance, and research assistance. In one embodiment, an input mechanism (“IME”) program provides the contextual service. The IME program may work with a remote contextual-service provider. The IME program communicates user input and contextual information to the contextual-service provider. The contextual-service provider analyzes the input and contextual information to determine whether one or more contextual services should be provided.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2016Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Yu-Ting Kuo, Antonio Gulli, Kuansan Wang

Patent number: 9613392Abstract: A method for performing graphics processing of a graphics system in an electronic device and an associated apparatus are provided, where the method includes the steps of: configuring a configurable hardware of the graphics system to be a vertex processing (VP) path in a specific processing phase; utilizing the VP path to perform VP-related tile-based rendering (TBR) operations; configuring the configurable hardware of the graphics system to be a pixel processing (PP) path in another processing phase; and utilizing the PP path to perform PP-related TBR operations. For example, after performing VP-related TBR operations of a specific frame of a plurality of frames is completed, PP-related TBR operations of the specific frame are performed, where after performing the PP-related TBR operations of the specific frame is completed, VP-related TBR operations of another frame of the plurality of frames are performed.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2014Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignee: MEDIATEK INC.Inventor: Yu-Ting Kuo
