20150066976 | AUTOMATED IDENTIFICATION OF RECURRING TEXT - In embodiments, one or more computer-readable media may have instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor of a computing device, provide the computing device with a recurring text identification service. The recurring text identification service may be configured, in some embodiments, to receive a request to identify recurring text within a plurality of documents. The recurring text identification service may be further configured to analyze individual segments of the plurality of documents to generate segment identifiers respectively associated with the segments. In embodiments, the segment identifiers may be based on content of the segments. In embodiments, segments with the same content may have equivalent segment identifiers. The recurring text identification service may further be configured to generate a distribution of the segment identifiers and may enable the distribution of segment identifiers to be used to streamline identification of recurring text within the plurality of documents. | 03-05-2015 |
20150071542 | AUTOMATED REDACTION - In embodiments, one or more computer-readable media may have instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor of a computing device provide the computing device with a redaction module. The redaction module may be configured to receive a request to redact a selection of text from a document and identify instances of the text occurring within the document through an analysis of word coordinate information of an image of the document. The redaction module may further be configured to generate redaction information, including redaction coordinates, the redaction coordinates may be based on the word coordinate information associated with respective instances of the text occurring within the document. The redactions, when applied to the image in accordance with the redaction coordinates, may redact the respective instances of the text. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed. | 03-12-2015 |

20110256920 | GAMING DEVICE HAVING SEQUENTIAL ACTIVATIONS OF A GAME AND REPLAY OF PREVIOUS ACTIVATIONS OF THE GAME - A gaming device including a plurality of reels with a plurality of symbols on each of the reels. At least one and preferably a plurality of the symbols on the primary reels are designated as tracking or back symbols. A tracking symbol is a symbol that, when generated on a reel, causes the gaming device to flag the outcome of the current and all tracking spins in a memory storage device. A back symbol is a symbol that, when generated on a reel, causes the gaming device to retrieve the flagged outcomes of each flagged spin and to re-display the outcomes in a sequential manner and to provide the awards associated with the outcomes to the player. An additional embodiment of the invention automatically flags all spins of the gaming device for retrieval and display upon the generation of a back or bonus symbol. The gaming device determines if an award is associated with one or more of the symbols generated on the reels and provides any determined award to the player. | 10-20-2011 |

20120322534 | GAMING DEVICE HAVING FREE SPIN MODE WITH SYMBOL ELIMINATION - A bonus game that operates in combination with a slot machine base game is provided. The bonus game includes a series of free spins or free evaluations in which symbols of a set of symbols are generated. The free spins also generate executor symbols that alone or in accumulation cause one of the symbols of the set to be eliminated or replaced. In either case the symbols remaining in the set have a higher probability of being generated and a higher probability exists that a larger award paying combination of the remaining symbols will be generated. The elimination sequence can be repeated a number of times further increasing the probability of generating a higher paying award for the player. The present invention is operable with different types of base games such as slot and poker. | 12-20-2012 |
