  • Patent number: 12175440
    Abstract: An Augmented Reality (AR)-enabled Automated Teller Machine (ATM) receives a request to dispense cash equal to amount of an AR document. The AR document comprises an AR check. The AR-enabled ATM fetches a first AR check image from a memory. The AR-enabled ATM extracts a first set of features from the first AR check image. The AR-enabled ATM receives a second AR check image from a computing device associated with the receiver. The AR-enabled ATM extracts a second set of features from the second AR check image. The AR-enabled ATM compares the first AR check image with the second AR check image. The AR-enabled ATM determines whether the first AR check image corresponds to the second AR check image. In response to determining that the first AR check image corresponds to the second AR check image, the AR-enabled ATM dispenses cash equal to the amount.

For example, data is stored in one or more remote or local data stores accessible to the improved spreadsheet application. A user enters a function into a cell of the improved spreadsheet application. The improved spreadsheet application generates a query using the function, the query identifying a portion of a dataset to retrieve from the data store(s). The improved spreadsheet application then transmits the query to the data store(s) and retrieves the requested data. A renderer of the improved spreadsheet application then renders a sparkline using the retrieved data. The improved spreadsheet application displays the rendered sparkline in the cell in which the function was entered, or at another designated location.

  • Patent number: 11580534
    Abstract: Auditing of mortgage documents is faster and simpler. An electronic mortgage application often contains or references a collection of many separate electronic mortgage documents. Electronic data representing an original version of an electronic mortgage document and its current version may be hashed to generate digital signatures. Any auditor may then quickly compare the digital signatures. If the digital signatures match, then the audit reveals that the electronic mortgage document has not changed since its creation. However, if the digital signatures do not match, then the electronic mortgage document has changed since its creation. The auditor may thus flag the electronic mortgage document for additional auditing processes.

  • Patent number: 11557002
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method for tracking influence of a user on content shared via encoded uniform resource locator (URL) links. Measuring influence of a user may identify what level of engagement the user drives to content when the user shares content with other users, such as via encoded links. A high influencer may be a user who drives a high level of engagement with content when the user shares content. A low influencer may be a user who does not drive a high level of engagement, or otherwise drives a low level of engagement with content when the user shares content. The method may include receiving, by a server, identification of a user for each of a plurality of encoded uniform resource locator (URL) links. The server may identify a plurality of keywords from content identified by each encoded URL link. The server may determine a number of actions via a plurality of users that decoded each encoded URL link of the plurality of encoded URL links of the user.

  • Patent number: 11550601
    Abstract: The subject technology receives a command to initiate an application. The subject technology, in response to the command, generates a root node related to a root view of a first hierarchy of views representing a user interface (UI). The subject technology generates a child node of the root node for including in the first hierarchy of views, the child node corresponding to a first type of view. The subject technology generates a first child node of the child node for including in the first hierarchy of views, the first child node corresponding to a second type of view. The subject technology generates a graph including nodes, each node corresponding to a different attribute of the UI, wherein the root node, the child node, and the first child node have relationships with respective nodes from the graph.

  • Patent number: 11537784
    Abstract: A collaborative content management system is disclosed herein for receiving a command to add an annotation object following a character input into a line of a collaborative content item. The system inserts an annotation object onto the line following the character, detects a selection of the annotation object, and displays a secondary collaborative content item in visual association with the character. The system detects textual content that corresponds to a citation within the secondary collaborative content item, and responsive to detecting the textual content, generates for display a template for inputting fields of a citation. The system receives text entered into one or more of the fields, generates a citation based on the text, and inputs the citation into the secondary collaborative content item.

  • Patent number: 11501183
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system for generating a recommendation associated with an extraction rule for big-data analysis. The system may receive a set of data blocks and an extraction rule. The extraction rule comprises an identifier and a first range associated with the identifier in the set of data blocks. The system identifies a set of words associated with the identifier in one or more data blocks from the set of data blocks based on a provenance knowledge. The provenance knowledge is indicative of a relationship between the word and the identifier. The system identifies a set of locations associated with the set of words in the one or more data blocks. The system generates a second range associated with the identifier based on the set of locations. The system recommends the second range for modifying the extraction rule for big-data analysis based on an accuracy change.
