  • Patent number: 11803761
    Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to processing a data model having hierarchical data. A front-end computer sends a request to a back-end computer for dimension candidates for the data model, which is visualized by the front-end computer. The front-end computer is configured score and rank such dimension candidates in order to determine statistics from the data model. The back-end computer determines dimension candidates based on their cardinality and hierarchical information and sends the dimension candidates to the front-end computer. The front-end computer performs the scoring and ranking of dimension candidates and determines statistics for a set of the dimension candidates. The statistics may be presented to a user along with charts and graphs representing the data model.

  • Patent number: 11797629
    Abstract: Techniques for performing outputting additional content associated with but nonresponsive to an input command are described. A system receives input data from a device. The system determines an intent representing the input data and receives first output data responsive to the input data. The system determines, based on context data, that additional content associated with the first output data but nonresponsive to the input data should be output. The system receives second output data associated with but nonresponsive to the input data thereafter. The system then presents first content corresponding to the first output data and second content corresponding to the second output data.

  • Patent number: 11775994
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to administration of an electronic survey via third-party content. For example, an electronic survey system receives a request to provide an electronic survey within a survey placeholder of a third-party webpage provided to a client device associated with a respondent. The survey system determines characteristics of the webpage or the respondent. The survey system then selects an electronic survey by comparing the characteristics of available electronic surveys to the characteristics of the webpage or the respondent. Additionally, the survey system provides electronic questions from the selected electronic survey for display within the survey placeholder of the webpage. The survey system also administers the electronic survey within the survey placeholder without redirecting the respondent client device away from the third-party webpage.

  • Patent number: 11776699
    Abstract: Systems and methods for integrating a plurality of healthcare software applications. A user initiates one or more software applications required to perform different parts of a healthcare task. The software applications include a local application installed on the user's device and a web-based application accessed through a browser. A host application is launched in order to facilitate local two-way communication between the local application and the web-based application. The host application generates a local communication server on the user device through which the local application and web application communicate. This allows a user to easily and efficiently perform multiple parts of the healthcare tasks. This also allows different healthcare software applications to be integrated without requiring any plug-ins or other integration components to be installed on the user's device.

  • Patent number: 11762508
    Abstract: Grip detection can be beneficial for an electronic device to ignore unintended contacts on a touch sensitive surface. Examples of the disclosure provide various ways for identifying an input patch as a grip. In some examples, identifying an input patch as a grip comprises determining whether the input patch satisfies one or more grip identification criteria. In some examples, identified grips are saved in a grip database. In some examples, the identified grips are filtered out of touch images. In some examples, when baseline touch data for a touch-sensitive is updated, the touch processor can forgo updating the baseline for portions of the touch sensitive surface associated with the identified grips.

  • Patent number: 11726648
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a collaboration engine is configured to display shared digital assets consistently across displays. The collaboration engine receives container metadata generated based on a first location and first size of a digital asset within a first scaled workspace displayed on a first display. In response, the collaboration engine computes a second location and second size of the digital asset based on the container metadata and the size of a second scaled workspace. Finally, the collaboration engine configures the second device to display the digital asset within the second scaled workspace based on the second location and the second size. Notably, the container metadata correlates to the appearance of the digital asset on the first display, and the appearance of the digital asset on the second display correlates to the container metadata. Consequently, the appearance of the digital asset is consistent across the displays.
