Patent number: 11914621Abstract: An association metric for record attributes associated with cardinalities that are not necessarily the same is used for training and/or applying an entity resolution (ER) model. A pair of records includes (a) a first record indicating a first set of values for a first attribute and (b) a second record indicating a second set of values for a second attribute. Each of the first set of values and each of the second set of values are compared to determine individual association metrics. A first-level reduction operation is applied to subsets of the individual association metrics to determine reduced association metrics. A second-level reduction operation is applied to the reduced association metrics to determine an association metric, for the pair of records, for training and/or applying an ER model.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2019Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: KOMODO HEALTHInventors: Benjamin James Campbell Blalock, Alexander Graham Glenday, Jason Richard Prestinario

Patent number: 11914784Abstract: Computerized methods and systems, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, may adaptively predict expression of emotions based on collected biometric data. For example, a computing system may receive first data indicative of a first time-evolving movement of a portion of a body during a collection period, and may obtain second data identifying predictive models that correlate default emotions with second feature values that characterize body movements during prior collection periods. Based on an outcome of the application of the least one pattern recognition algorithm or machine learning algorithm to portions of the first and second data, the system may determine a corresponding one of the default emotions represented by the first time-evolving movement, and may transmit data indicative of the corresponding one of the default emotions to the communications device for presentation to a user.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: EmawwInventor: Alicia Heraz

Patent number: 11907638Abstract: A client device processing received emoji messages using emoji-first messaging. Text messaging is automatically converted to emojis by an emoji-first application so that only emojis are communicated from one client device to another client device. Each client device has a library of emojis that are mapped to words, which libraries are customizable and unique to the users of the client devices, such that the users can communicate secretly in code. Upon receipt of a string of emojis, a user can select the emoji string to convert to text if desired, for a predetermined period of time.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: SNAP INC.Inventors: Karl Bayer, Prerna Chikersal, Shree K.

Patent number: 11900254Abstract: A method of generating a multi-modal prediction is disclosed herein. A computing system retrieves event data from a data store. The event data includes information for a plurality of events across a plurality of seasons. Computing system generates a predictive model using a mixture density network, by generating an input vector from the event data learning, by the mixture density network, a plurality of values associated with a next play following each play in the event data. The mixture density network is trained to output the plurality of values near simultaneously. Computing system receives a set of event data directed to an event in a match. The set of event data includes information directed to at least playing surface position and current score. Computing system generates, via the predictive model, a plurality of values associated with a next event following the event based on the set of event data.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2023Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: STATS LLCInventors: Matthew Holbrook, Jennifer Hobbs, Patrick Joseph Lucey

Patent number: 11880230Abstract: An urban design pipeline automatically generates design options for an urban design project. The urban design pipeline includes a geometry engine and an evaluation engine. The geometry engine analyzes design criteria, design objectives, and design heuristics associated with the urban design project and then generates numerous candidate designs. The design criteria specify a property boundary associated with a region of land to be developed. The design objectives indicate a specific type of topology that is derived from an existing urban layout. The design heuristics include different sets of construction rules for generating designs with specific types of topologies. The geometry engine generates candidate designs that conform to the property boundary and have topological characteristics in common with the existing urban layout.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: AUTODESK, INC.Inventors: David Benjamin, James Stoddart, Lorenzo Villaggi, Danil Nagy

Patent number: 11860972Abstract: Sequential hypothesis testing in a digital medium environment is described using continuous data. To begin, a model is received that defines at least one data distribution. Testing data is also received that describes an effect of user interactions with the plurality of options of digital content on achieving an action using continuous non-binary data. Values of parameters of the model are then estimated for each option of the plurality of options based on the testing data. In one example. A variance estimate is then generated based on the estimated values of the parameters of the model for each option of the plurality of options. From this, a determination is made as to a decision boundary based on the variance estimate and an estimate for a mean value of each option of the plurality of options based on the testing data.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2021Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Abbas Kazerouni, Mohammad Ghavamzadeh
