  • Patent number: 11281462
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for facilitating access to and incorporation of APIs within an application during development, while ensuring that the API satisfies quality constraints. These quality constraints are controlled by the application of rules, which result in a maturity score for the API, in accordance with embodiments. These rules may be provided by a variety of sources for use in scoring the API at various stages. For example, a developer group may control access to developers within the group by applying a ruleset that restricts APIs for applications written by the developer group to a threshold score. This threshold score can limit or restrict APIs that are offered to a developer by an API exchange. Additionally, a ruleset may be applied to enforce a minimum score for submission of an API for inclusion within an API exchange.

  • Patent number: 11194956
    Abstract: Interactive natural language processing (NLP) results may be generated that allow a user to interact with the NLP results but do so in an offline manner so that the documents being processed need not be stored online. To provide interactive NLP results, event handlers may be attached to elements of the NLP results. A user may then select a word or phrase of the NLP results to cause computer software provided with the NLP to present the interactive features. For example, a user may click on a definite noun phrase to view information for diagnosing antecedent basis errors. For another example, a user may click on a word to view information about how that word is used in a document, such as viewing portions of the document that include the word or variants of the word.

  • Patent number: 11184303
    Abstract: Described herein is a codified social media messaging system, method and process based on pre-composed messages made of prefabricated icons that may be directed primarily at festive occasions and events. The prefabricated icons may comprise gender-specific prefabricated icons. The festive nature of these events may be incompatible with harmful messages, hence one function—that of a filter—imprinted in the design of positive prefabricated icons. Another function may aim to make messages as festive as the festive occasions they address. These functions may stem from the use of prefabricated icons, including animated icons, which act as guardians and catalysts of the positive character of the message. Within this codified messaging system, method and process, pre-composed messages made of prefabricated icons may perform the role of multi-use “connectors” between users. In some embodiments the system provides a system of memorabilia exchanges based on prefabricated icons.
