Patent number: 10691740Abstract: Implementations relate to relate to interface elements for directed display of content data items. In some implementations, a method includes causing a subset of content elements to be presented in a display view of a graphical user interface on a device, the set of content elements corresponding to a collection of content data items. Search topics are identified based on one or more content characteristics associated with content elements that are within a threshold distance of the subset of content elements in the display view. Topic elements are displayed in the interface, corresponding to the search topics. In response to a selection of a particular topic element based on user input, the collection of content data items is searched to identify resulting content data items that have content characteristics corresponding to the selected search topic. The display view is updated to present resulting content elements.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Juan Carlos Anorga, Indrajit Khare, Madhur Khandelwal

Patent number: 10671882Abstract: A technique for use in analyzing multidimensional data is disclosed. In the technique, a subset of texts specified by a textual feature is selected from the multidimensional data. Each text of the subset is projected into a target image based on the corresponding spatial information to obtain a spatial distribution map for the textual feature. The similarity between the spatial distribution map for the textual feature and each property distribution map for each predefined property is determined. For the similarity exceeding a threshold, the textual feature is outputted as a notable textual feature.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2017Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Tetsuya Nasukawa, Kazuki Sato

Patent number: 10664537Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for editable search. A computing device displays a term on a network page. The computing device then displays a search result on the network page, wherein the search result is related to the term. Later, the computing device displays an alternative term in response to a selection of the term. The computing device then sends a search query to a remote application executing on a remote computing device in response to a selection of the alternative term, wherein the search query includes the alternative term. The computing device subsequently updates the search result on the network page with a new search result related to the alternative term.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2016Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Nathan Ross Mueller, David Robert Cole, Anna Maria Godfrey, Whitney Gale Spathelf
