Systems and methods are disclosed for directly responding to distributed network traffic received from a plurality of client devices. One method includes receiving, at a source device, client requests including a packet having a reserved portion, a source portion, and a destination portion; determining, for each client request, a target device from a plurality of target devices to respond to the client request; modifying, for each client request by the source device, the destination portion of the packet to an address of target device; modifying, for each client request by a switching layer prior to the target device receiving the modified client request, the destination portion; and responding directly to each client request by the target device without traversing the source device.

A device, system, and method are directed towards facilitating composing, editing, and displaying a message that includes text and graphics inline. An edit window provides a mechanism for editing the text inline. The message, including text and graphics, may be sent to a remote device. The remote device may display the message, and edit the text and graphics inline, and send a reply message to the original sender.

Systems and methods of natural language processing in an environment with no existing corpus are disclosed. The method includes defining an input grammar specific to a chosen domain, the input grammar having a domain specific knowledge and general grammatical knowledge. Groups of tokens are identified within the input grammar having syntactic and semantic equivalence. The identified groups are assembled into hypernyms, wherein the hypernyms include a semantic output for each token in the hypernyms. A list of fields is then combined with the hypernyms for combination with the hypernyms. A corpus of possible combinations of hypernyms and fields is created. A data structure mapping each possible combination to a partial semantic output is generated and the data structure is saved for use in later processing.

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods are provided. One or more actions may be performed based upon a plurality of sets of data. A first value associated with performance of the one or more actions may be determined. A plurality of sources of the plurality of sets of data may be determined based upon the plurality of sets of data. A plurality of values associated with the plurality of sources may be determined based upon the first value and/or the plurality of sets of data. A plurality of payment values associated with the plurality of sources may be generated based upon the plurality of values. A first payment value of the plurality of payment values may be associated with a first source of the plurality of sources. A first payment associated with the first payment value may be transferred to a first account associated with the first source.

Systems and methods are disclosed for utilizing a comment moderation bot for detecting and normalizing neologisms in social media. One method comprises transmitting, by a neologism normalization system, a comment moderation bot for detecting neologisms on an online platform maintained by one or more publisher systems. The comment moderation bot may aggregate data related to user comments and transmit the aggregated data to the neologism normalization system for further processing. The neologism normalization system implements unsupervised machine learning models for detecting neologisms in the aggregated data through tokenization and filtering; and normalizing the neologisms through similarity analysis and lattice decoding.

Methods and apparatus for using features of images representing content items to improve the presentation of the content items are disclosed. In one embodiment, a plurality of digital images are obtained, where each of the images represents a corresponding one of a plurality of content items. Image features of each of the digital images are determined. Additional features including at least one of user features pertaining to a user of a client device or contextual features pertaining to the client device are ascertained. At least a portion of the content items are provided via a network to the client device using features that include or are derived from both the image features of each of the plurality of digital images and the additional features.

An enterprise network may be managed by enabling provision of a graphical user interface that shows IP address allocations for the network and that allows a user to configure DHCP scopes, receiving a DHCP scope request based on a user interaction with the graphical user interface, translating the request into a protocol for communicating with a DHCP control server, providing the translated request to the DHCP control server for processing at the DHCP control server, and updating configurations of multiple DHCP servers. The updated configurations may be sent from the DHCP control server to a configuration storage system and the multiple DHCP servers may be enabled to access the updated configurations from the configuration storage system.

Methods, systems and programming for delivering web page content using edge server. In one example, a request is received from a user for a page including at least a piece of generic content and a plurality pieces of customized content. The request is forwarded from the user to a content server over the network. The piece of generic content and a first type of instruction are sent to the user. The piece of generic content and the first type of instruction are received from the content server as a response to the forwarded request. Each of the plurality pieces of customized content is sent to the user upon receiving a respective piece of customize content from the content server. The plurality pieces of customized content are to be assembled on the page in accordance with the first type of instruction.

A method is provided, including: storing comments generated in response to a content item served over a network; analyzing the comments to determine features associated with each of the comments; using a scoring model to score each comment based on the comment's corresponding features; receiving a request to serve a subset of the comments; responsive to the request, selecting a ranking of the comments that is one permutation from possible rankings of the comments, wherein selecting the ranking is in accordance with a probability distribution of the possible rankings that is based on the scores of the comments; serving comments identified by the selected ranking over the network to a client device; determining a dwell time on the served comments; applying the dwell time to update the scoring model.

Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content providing, searching and/or hosting systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that provides an optimized ranking methodology for query suggestion and auto-completion tasks that messaging systems can implement and embed into their functionality. The disclosed framework can leverage the mail query logs on a personal level or on the aggregate (e.g., across all or a set of users on a network), and the mailbox content of each user to produce a comprehensive ranking function that generates ranked search suggestions for a mail search query for both person and company entities.
