  • Publication number: 20250094511
    Abstract: Systems and methods for proactive query and content suggestion can include obtaining web data, determining a change event occurred, and generating a query and content suggestion. Generating the query and content suggestion can include processing data descriptive of the change event with a generative model to generate one or more model-generated query suggestions. One or more web resources can be obtained then processed to generate a change event summary. The one or more query suggestions and the change event summary can then be provided for display.

  • Publication number: 20250053564
    Abstract: System and methods are presented for associating a user-posted content item with an interest node of an interest taxonomy. A corpus of content items and an interest taxonomy are maintained. The interest taxonomy comprises interest nodes organized in a hierarchical organization, each node having a text label descriptive of the interest node. Additionally, the content items of the corpus are associated with one or more interest nodes of the interest taxonomy. Upon receiving a user-posted content item, feature sets of the received content item are generated, these feature sets based on features and/or aspects of the received content item. After generating at least one feature set, the at least one feature set is provided to an interest prediction model that generates candidate interest nodes for the user-posted content item. At least some of the candidate interest nodes are associated with the user-posted content item in the corpus.

  • Publication number: 20240306711
    Abstract: A device for vaporizing and/or atomization of active substances in the form of liquid, thick liquid, wax, and semi-solids. The device includes a body assembly that encases different components, an airflow module that attaches to the body assembly, and a cartridge module. The cartridge module can be inserted into a body of the body assembly and includes a container and an aerosolization element. The aerosolization element is primarily for vaporizing the active substance through inductive heating. The aerosolization element can freely slide within the container up and down longitudinally. The aerosolization element may optionally include pores for aerosolized particles to pass through but the size of pores prevents the active substances from passing through, thus acting as a cap. The aerosolization element remains in contact with a top surface of the active substances through adhesive forces and moves with change in level of the active substances.

  • Publication number: 20240211698
    Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for inferring an embedding vector of an item of a first type into the embedding space. Upon receiving a first time for which there is no embedding vector, documents of a document corpus that include (co-occurrence) both the received item and other items of the same type are identified. Of those other items that have embedding vectors, those embedding vectors are retrieved and averaged. The resulting averaged embedding vector is established as an inferred embedding vector for the received item.

  • Patent number: 11755671
    Abstract: Systems and methods for recommending content to an online service user are presented. In response to a request from a user, a set of n-grams of the request are generated, with each n-gram comprising one or more terms from the request and each n-gram of the set of n-grams being unique. Embedding vectors projecting the n-grams into a content item embedding space are generated, and the embedding vectors are combined into a representative embedding vector for the request. The nearest content items are identified according to a distance measure between a projection of the representative embedding vector and embedding vectors of content items of a corpus of content items in the content item embedding space. At least some of the nearest content items are returned as recommended content in response to the request from the user.

  • Patent number: 11288453
    Abstract: Systems and methods are set forth for identifying key-words and key-phrases, collectively referred to as key-terms, from a document. A document is accessed and the document is tokenized, each token corresponding to a word or phrase occurring within the document. Term frequencies of the terms of the tokens may be determined and TF-IDF scores may be generated according to the term frequencies. Embedding vectors for the terms of the tokens may be generated and a document embedding vector may be generated according to the embedding vectors of the documents. A similarity score may be determined for each token according to the embedding vector of a token and the document embedding vector. Additionally, an overall score may be determined for each token according to the term of the token, a TF-IDF score, similarity scores, and the like. Terms from the highest scoring tokens are selected as the key-terms for the document.

  • Patent number: 11284723
    Abstract: Disclosed is a seat pad assembly having ventilation for comfort and heat dissipation. The seat pad assembly includes a frame with padding on top of the frame. The padding having multiple pores for the air to pass through. The frame includes a side opening on its sidewall and a front opening on its front wall. A channel fluidly connects the first opening to the second opening. A cooling module having fans is coupled to the first opening. The top of the frame is having apertures along the length of the channel, wherein the channel and the apertures are configured, such as an airflow between the first opening and the second opening results in drawing the air from the pores of the padding through the apertures into the channel. Alternatively, the channel and the apertures can be configured to draw a portion of the air flowing between the first opening and the second opening through the apertures into the pores of the padding.
