An online system presents content to its users, in which the content includes links that launch a messaging application and initiate conversations via the application. The system receives information indicating that negative experiences occurred during the conversations and may use this information and attributes of entities participating in the conversations to train a model to predict a likelihood of an occurrence of a negative experience. Upon determining an opportunity to present a user with a link that launches the application and initiates a potential conversation with an entity via the application, the system applies the model to predict a likelihood of an occurrence of the negative experience by the user during the potential conversation based on the entity's attributes. Based on the predicted likelihood, the system adjusts a value associated with presenting the link and passes the adjusted value to a process that selects content for presentation to the user.
An online system receives information describing a target group of online system users from a third party system that includes one or more user properties, which may identify an action performed by a an online user within a time interval to include the user in the target group. When an opportunity to present advertisement requests to a user is identified, the online system retrieves actions associated with the user and times associated with the actions. If an action associated with the user matches the action identified by the user properties and occurred within the time interval identified by the user properties, and other characteristics of the user satisfy at least a threshold number of the user properties, the online system includes the user in the target group. Advertisement requests having targeting criteria, including the target group, satisfied by characteristics of the user are evaluated for presentation to the user.
An antenna comprising (1) a bottom RF guide plate rotatably coupled to a base via a first shaft controlled by an azimuth motor, (2) a top array plate rotatably coupled to the base via a second shaft controlled by an elevation motor, the top array plate and the bottom RF guide plate collectively forming a waveguide configured to direct RF signals in a specific direction, and (3) a choke structure coupled to the top array plate, the choke structure and the bottom RF guide plate collectively producing a RF choke that mitigates RF energy leakage or intrusion between the waveguide and an area outside the waveguide. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
H01Q 3/10 - Arrangements for changing or varying the orientation or the shape of the directional pattern of the waves radiated from an antenna or antenna system using mechanical movement of antenna or antenna system as a whole for varying two co-ordinates of the orientation to produce a conical or spiral scan
H01Q 1/52 - Means for reducing coupling between antennas; Means for reducing coupling between an antenna and another structure
A system for network optimization using geo-data may access a set of geotagged data samples associated with a cell. The set of geotagged data samples may be obtained from an application associated with one or more user equipment associated with the cell and the cell includes at least one antenna. The system may also determine a metric associated with the cell based on the set of geotagged data samples, generate one or more antenna adjustments based on the metric, and predict, based on the one or more antenna adjustments, a performance improvement associated with the cell.
Methods, systems, and storage media for caching digital content are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: access a social media platform through a client executing on a user device; generate a feed comprising digital content; cause display of the feed through a user interface on the client executing on the user device; receive a gesture from a user; in response to the received gesture from the user, cache at least a portion of the digital content of the feed; and cause display of the cached digital content on the feed.
G06F 3/04883 - Interaction techniques based on graphical user interfaces [GUI] using specific features provided by the input device, e.g. functions controlled by the rotation of a mouse with dual sensing arrangements, or of the nature of the input device, e.g. tap gestures based on pressure sensed by a digitiser using a touch-screen or digitiser, e.g. input of commands through traced gestures for inputting data by handwriting, e.g. gesture or text
G06F 16/957 - Browsing optimisation, e.g. caching or content distillation
G06Q 50/00 - Systems or methods specially adapted for specific business sectors, e.g. utilities or tourism

Online session scheduling from a networking platform
Methods, systems, and storage media for the online scheduling of sessions or appointments from within a networking platform are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive an image or video including a tag identifying a provider or a service of a provider; cause display of the image/video in a feed, story, or reel associated with a user of the networking platform; receive a selection of the tag; in response to the tag selection, cause display of information associated with the provider, the information including a selectable session request indicator; receive a request to engage in a session(s) with the provider (via user selection of the session request indicator); receive detail(s) associated with the engagement request; receive an indication that the request is complete; and send, via a networking-platform-specific communication application, a communication to the user informing the user of request approval or rejection, or indicating the request is pending.
G06Q 50/00 - Systems or methods specially adapted for specific business sectors, e.g. utilities or tourism
H04L 51/52 - User-to-user messaging in packet-switching networks, transmitted according to store-and-forward or real-time protocols, e.g. e-mail for supporting social networking services
A mobile client device is localized based on a captured image by identifying where the client device is located from a set of known locations. The set of known locations is associated with a set of regions, where each region is associated with a set of key frames representing the important features of the region. Latent vectors and keypoints are calculated for each of the key frames and an image captured by the client device. The system compares the latent vectors of the captured image to the latent vectors associated with the regions to determine a subset of similar regions. The system compares the keypoints of the captured image to the keypoints associated with the regions in the subset to determine a best match. This determined location is considered the region of the client device and may be used with other localization information to maintain localization of the client device.
A system having an electrical device for electrical power monitoring and analysis is disclosed. The system may enable electrically connecting of a measurement component of an electrical device to a plurality of electrical ports via a power line of a data center to detect one or more electrical signals. The electrical device, the plurality of electrical ports and the power line may be embodied within a non-metallic enclosure configured to reduce electromagnetic interference within the non-metallic enclosure. The system may measure a quantity of the electrical signals via the measurement component. The system may determine, based on analyzing the quantity of the electrical signals, one or more troubleshooting actions associated with the power line of the data center.
