  • Patent number: 12093290
    Abstract: A system and method is presented that extracts snippets form web pages according to specially designed logic. The extracted snippets might be made relevant to, i.e., indexed by, a location and time/day applicability. Such snippets may be thought of as apps or services that are defined only when a mobile terminal is in a pre-defined geographical area at a certain time and day (e.g., as defined by a calendar of events). Extracted snippets are stored and made searchable. Methods and a system are described to control the display of snippet search results. Snippets may be selected by user or by programmed logic and executed on the mobile terminal or in remote servers without the need to download the app or source code associated with the snippet.

  • Patent number: 12086851
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for similarity detection based on token distinctiveness are disclosed. A similarity detection system determines candidate items for a seed item based on a comparison of tokens in textual descriptions of the candidate items to tokens in a textual description of the seed item. The system uses machine learning to determine importance scores for the tokens of the seed item. An importance score is determined based on the frequency of the individual token and the frequency of the most commonly occurring token in the candidate items. Importance scores for the same token differ from the seed item to another seed item. Based on the importance scores, the system determines similarity scores for the candidate items to the seed item. The system selects, from the candidate items, a set of similar items to the seed item based (at least in part) on the similarity scores.

  • Patent number: 12067141
    Abstract: A data marketplace for enriching data records by matching, identifying composite data records, and utilizing Reference Source datasets. Customer data can be tokenized and then subsequently transmitted to a third-party Data Marketplace Platform. Similarly, a Reference Source dataset may be tokenized and transmitted to a Data Marketplace Platform. On the Data Marketplace Platform, the customer data and the reference source data may be compared, wherein certain data attributes (i.e., tokens on the Data Marketplace Platform) may be identified as missing in the customer dataset and present in the reference source dataset. The customer may then have the ability to acquire the missing and value-added data attributes by transacting with the reference source via a data broker, such as the Data Marketplace Platform.

  • Patent number: 12001807
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are example embodiments of an improved narrative generation system where an analysis service that executes data analysis logic that supports story generation is segregated from an authoring service that executes authoring logic for story generation through an interface. Accordingly, when the authoring service needs analysis from the analysis service, it can invoke the analysis service through the interface. By exposing the analysis service to the authoring service through the shared interface, the details of the logic underlying the analysis service are shielded from the authoring service (and vice versa where the details of the authoring service are shielded from the analysis service). Through parameterization of operating variables, the analysis service can thus be designed as a generalized data analysis service that can operate in a number of different content verticals with respect to a variety of different story types.

  • Patent number: 11972203
    Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to formulating and refining field extraction rules that are used at query time on raw data with a late-binding schema. The field extraction rules identify portions of the raw data, as well as their data types and hierarchical relationships. These extraction rules are executed against very large data sets not organized into relational structures that have not been processed by standard extraction or transformation methods. By using sample events, a focus on primary and secondary example events help formulate either a single extraction rule spanning multiple data formats, or multiple rules directed to distinct formats. Selection tools mark up the example events to indicate positive examples for the extraction rules, and to identify negative examples to avoid mistaken value selection. The extraction rules can be saved for query-time use, and can be incorporated into a data model for sets and subsets of event data.

    Abstract: A device for identifying a shift in a point of interest (POI). The device may receive location information of the POI, determine a geographical coordinate of the POI based on the location information and using map data, determine a routable attribute of the POI based on the geographical coordinate and using updated map data, identify a shift in the POI between the map data and the updated map data based on an inconsistency between the routable attribute and the map data, determine an aggregate score based on the routable attribute and the inconsistency between the routable attribute and the map data when the shift in the POI is identified, and cause an action to be performed based on the aggregate score.

  • Patent number: 11869055
    Abstract: An online concierge system generates a graph connecting items with attributes of the items and other items. Hence, the graph includes nodes corresponding to attributes and nodes corresponding to items, with an item connected to attributes of the item in the graph. Example attributes include a brand, a category, a department, or any other suitable information about the item. When the online concierge system receives a search query to identify one or more items from a customer, the online concierge system parses the search query into combinations of terms and compares different combinations of terms to the graph to determine connections between different combinations of terms in the graph. Based on measures of connectedness between combinations of terms and connections in the graph, items are identified from one or more combinations of terms. Information about the identified items is presented to the customer.

  • Patent number: 11775518
    Abstract: Technologies described reduce the amount of time between requesting content and receiving the requested content. In some embodiments, a client provides a search query. A search result page is generated and, prior to returning the search result page to the client, some or all of the search results are asynchronously pre-fetched and cached. The search query can include custom parameters that are also included in the pre-fetch requests. Web addresses in the search results page can be modified to indicate whether a prefetch operation was initiated. Once a user activates one of the search results, the responding web server uses the cached data while generating a response.
