Abstract: The present teaching, which includes methods, systems and computer-readable media, relates to ranking content from multiple disparate sources including a person's personal data sources and non-personal data sources. The disclosed techniques may include obtaining a plurality sets of content associated with a request from a person, each of which being from a separate data source, and applying a model for each set of content to obtain a set of features for each piece of content in the set of content, wherein the model is specific to a data source from where the set of content comes from. Each set of features for each piece of content of the set of content may be normalized with respect to a common space to generate a normalized feature set. Further, a score for each piece of content from a set of content may be estimated based on the normalized feature set for the piece of content, and based on the score of the piece of content, each piece of content of the plurality sets of content may be ranked.

Abstract: The present teaching, which includes methods, systems and computer-readable media, relates to providing content from multiple disparate sources including a person's personal data sources and non-personal data sources. The disclosed techniques may include receiving a request for content from a person; obtaining first content from a first source private to the person based on the request; obtaining second content from at least one second source based on the request; blending the first content from the first source and the second content from the at least one second source to generate a blended content; and providing the blended content to the person in response to the request.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content generating, searching, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods leverage the display screen sizes of information cards to improve the accuracy and efficiency of displayed search results. The disclosed systems and methods can be implemented in search and recommendation systems for optimally performing a search and displaying the results of the search based on, among other features, the size of the cards providing each search result and the display size of the screen displaying such results.
