20150154685 | AUTOMATED DETECTION OF NEW ITEM FEATURES BY ANALYSIS OF ITEM ATTRIBUTE DATA - A system may identify new features of items represented in an electronic catalog by comparing the attributes of items from an earlier time period (e.g., 1 to 3 years ago) with the attributes of items from a later or more recent time period (e.g., today) for a given items classification. By identifying attributes associated with items from the later time period, but not with items from the earlier time period, the system can identify new features associated with the given items classification. In some cases, the system may use search behaviors of users to assess whether such new features are important to users. | 06-04-2015 |
20150339759 | DETECTING PRODUCT ATTRIBUTES ASSOCIATED WITH PRODUCT UPGRADES BASED ON BEHAVIORS OF USERS - A system may use search refinements to identify new product trends. These product trends may be associated with attributes or product features that may previously have been available, but are newly of interest to a users. The system may compare search refinements used by users during an earlier time period with search refinements used during a more recent time period to identify search refinements that are used more often during the later time period. Based on this comparison, the system can identify a product feature that is of interest to users during the later time period, but not the earlier time period. The system can then recommend products with the product feature to potential customers. Further, if the product feature was not available during the earlier time period, the system can identify to potential customers that the product feature is newly available in relation to the earlier time period. | 11-26-2015 |

20100082751 | USER PERCEPTION OF ELECTRONIC MESSAGING - Determining user use context for electronic messaging and disseminating a subset of the user use context to recipients and/or senders of such electronic message is disclosed herein. By way of example, the user use context can be based on a general context of recipients, such as speed with which a message is disseminated or consumed, number of child messages spawned, rate at which such messages are spawned, and so on. Additionally, user use context can also be based on individual context, by comparing individual interaction to a message (e.g., time to read, time to delete, number of child messages, etc.), with a baseline usage context determined for the individual. The context can be disseminated to recipients of the message or to the sender, to provide an overview of perception of the electronic message. | 04-01-2010 |
20100223212 | TASK-RELATED ELECTRONIC COACHING - Providing for task-related electronic feedback based on user interaction with a communication network is described herein. By way of example, user interactions the network or a network interface can be monitored to identify user activities performed in conjunction with a task. A rating for performance of the task can be obtained via comparison of user activities with benchmark performance activities. Based on the rating and user-benchmark comparison, inefficiencies can be identified, along with corrective actions for such activities. The corrective actions can then be output to coach the user on techniques for improving performance of the task. Accordingly, by employing corrective feedback based on monitored user activity, personal training can be automated, potentially reducing time and cost of such training. | 09-02-2010 |
