Patent number: 11431663Abstract: Disclosed embodiments are related to send time optimization technologies for sending messages to users. The send time optimization technologies provide personalized recommendations for sending messages to individual subscribers taking into account the delay and/or lag between the send time and the time when a subscriber engages with a sent message. A machine learning (ML) approach is used to predict the optimal send time to send messages to individual subscribers for improving message engagement. The personalized recommendations are based on unique characteristics of each user's engagement preferences and patterns, and deals with historical feedback that is generally incomplete and skewed towards a small set of send hours. The ML approach automatically discovers hidden factors underneath message and send time engagements. The ML model may be a two-layer non-linear matrix factorization model. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2019Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: SALESFORCE, INC.Inventors: Yuxi Zhang, Kexin Xie

Publication number: 20220244988Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed for data shards for distributed processing. Data sets of data for users may be received. The data sets may belong to separate groups. User identifiers in the data sets may be hashed to generate hashed identifiers for the data sets. The user identifiers in the data sets may be replaced with the hashed identifiers. The data sets may be split to generate shards. The data sets may be split into the same number of shards. Merged shards may be generated by merging the shards using a separate running process for each of the merged shards. The merged shards may be generated using shards from more than one of the two or more data sets. An operation may be performed on all of the merged shards.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 30, 2021Publication date: August 4, 2022Inventors: Yuxi Zhang, Kexin Xie

Publication number: 20220207407Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed for localization of machine learning models trained with global data. Data sets of event data for users may be received. The data sets may belong to separate groups. The data sets of event data may be combined to generate a global data set. A matrix factorization model may be trained using the global data set to generate a globally trained matrix factorization model. A localization group data set may be generated including event data from the global data set for users from a first of the groups. The globally trained matrix factorization model may be trained with the localization group data set to generate a localized matrix factorization model for the first of the groups.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2020Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Yuxi Zhang, Kexin Xie

Publication number: 20220198529Abstract: A system can recommend a next action for a user. A memory can store user data corresponding to the user and can include historic interaction points. A behavior pattern can be identified based on two or more interaction points stored in the user data. An intent of the user based on the behavior pattern can be identified. The intent can be based on a previous behavior pattern of another user. Several probabilities that the user will meet one or more objectives can be determined based on the intent. The probabilities can be scored using and used to assign a policy to the first user. A next action can be recommended based on the policy and executed with respect to the user. The outcome of the recommended next action can be stored to the user data.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2021Publication date: June 23, 2022Inventors: Yuxi Zhang, Kexin Xie, Shrestha Basu Mallick, Darrell Grissen

Publication number: 20210304608Abstract: To visualize planned behavior of an autonomous vehicle (AV) traveling along a roadway, a user interface engine receives data describing a planned pathway of the AV along the roadway and object data describing an object having a predicted pathway crossing the planned pathway of the AV at a cross point. The user interface engine classifies the object either an asserting object or a yielding object based on a prediction of whether the object reaches the cross point before the AV or after the AV. The user interface engine generates an image that includes the planned pathway of the AV and the object in the environment of the AV. The image of the object indicates whether the object is classified as an asserting object or a yielding object.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2020Publication date: September 30, 2021Applicant: GM Cruise Holdings LLCInventors: Brian Laurence Clark, Michael Alan Huff, Flavius Popescu, Chad Lawrence Bettencourt, Tejeswara Reddy Pogula, Yuxi Zhang, Jiajian Zhou, Christophe Philippona, Tal Benisty, Myung Jin Kim

Publication number: 20210287246Abstract: Systems, device and techniques are disclosed for asynchronous remote call with undo data structures. A selection of a data point of a time series may be received. The data point may represent a measurement of an overall target metric for events at a point in time. A graph for the data point may be displayed on a display device. The display of the graph for the data point may include nodes for the events displayed with sizes based on an influence scores for the events, and an edge between each of the nodes and a hidden node, with a width that may represent an adjusted change in a measurement of a target metric for the event corresponding to the node, and a color of the edge may represent whether the adjusted change in the measurement of the target metric for the event is positive or negative.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2020Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Yuxi Zhang, Kexin Xie

Patent number: 10893203Abstract: A terminal device obtains a first instruction triggering a photographing function, presents a viewfinder window on a first screen, obtains a feature parameter of a target image, where the target image is an image presented in the viewfinder window, presents preset playing content on a second screen when the feature parameter of the target image matches a standard feature parameter, and performs a photographing operation. Therefore, after the photographing function is enabled, the viewfinder window is presented, and the preset playing content is played on the second screen, where the playing content may attract attention of a photographed target such that the photographed target is stimulated in a short time to show a vivid expression.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2017Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventor: Yuxi Zhang
