摘要： A technique for the creation of synthesized results from multi-query searches to provide more relevant information to the user in a more useful format and to discard or reduce in relevancy information that is not so useful. It allows a user to define the boundaries of the exploratory search before it starts or retroactively define which queries belong to the search. It can imply which queries belong to the search based on parameters in the queries or results. It also provides mechanisms for supporting exploratory searches including: saving/restoring search context; search-specific query history; a “keepers” bin for storing useful results; elimination of redundant results; re-ranking of common search results; integration of searching with navigation; pivoting on search results; collaboration among multiple searchers; user-generated content; generation of hypotheses; re-executing queries and executing standing queries; multi-monitor searching and automatic preparation of search summaries. User interfaces for conducting multi-query searches are also provided.
摘要翻译：一种用于从多查询搜索创建合成结果的技术，以更有用的格式向用户提供更多的相关信息，并丢弃或减少不那么有用的相关性信息。它允许用户在开始之前定义探索性搜索的边界，或者追溯地定义哪些查询属于搜索。它可以暗示哪些查询属于基于查询或结果中的参数的搜索。它还提供支持探索性搜索的机制，包括：保存/恢复搜索环境; 搜索专用查询记录; 用于存储有用结果的“管理员”仓; 消除冗余结果; 共同搜索结果重新排序; 搜索与导航的整合; 在搜索结果上转动; 多个搜索者之间的协作; 用户生成内容; 一代假设; 重新执行查询并执行常规查询; 多监视搜索和自动准备搜索摘要。还提供了用于进行多查询搜索的用户界面。

摘要： Methods for integrating mobile electronic devices with computational methods for assigning priorities to documents are disclosed. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method first receives a new document such as an electronic mail message. The method assigns a priority to the document, based on a text classifier such as a Bayesian classifier or a support-vector machine classifier. The method then alerts a user on an electronic device, such as a pager or a cellular phone, based on an alert criteria that can be made sensitive to information about the location, inferred task, and focus of attention of the user. Such information can be inferred under uncertainty or can be accessed directly from online information sources. One embodiment makes use of information from an online calendar to control the criteria used to make decisions about relaying information to a mobile device.

摘要： Technologies for transient personal preference customization of environments, devices and systems based on user preference data. Such technologies enable users to maintain personal preference data on mobile or other devices, such as cell phones, personal data assistants (“PDA”), or the like, such that the data can be transferred to devices and systems capable of conforming parameters under their control to the preferences expressed in the data. For example, a frequent traveler may define preferences regarding room temperature, ambient lighting, music style, and the like and maintain these preferences in a mobile device such as a cell phone. Upon arrival at a hotel room, for example, the systems of the hotel may access the preference data and adjust the parameters of the room, and the devices and systems in the room, to conform to the user's preferences while the user is in the room or checked into the hotel. Such customization may be transient in that parameters may be returned to a default or other setting once a user is no longer present, or when another user is present.
摘要翻译：基于用户偏好数据的环境，设备和系统的临时个人偏好定制技术。这样的技术使得用户能够在诸如蜂窝电话，个人数据助理（PDA）等的移动或其他设备上保持个人偏好数据，使得数据可以被传送到能够使其符合他们的参数的设备和系统控制数据中表达的偏好。例如，频繁旅行者可以定义关于室温，环境照明，音乐风格等的偏好，并且将这些偏好保持在诸如手机的移动设备中。例如，在到达酒店房间时，酒店的系统可以访问偏好数据并调整房间的参数以及房间中的设备和系统，以在用户在房间中符合用户的偏好或入住酒店。这样的定制可能是短暂的，因为一旦用户不再存在或者当另一个用户存在时，参数可以返回到默认或其他设置。

摘要： A system and method for identifying ideal channels for communications based on an analysis of communication channel reliability, communicating party preferences, and communicating party contexts is provided. The system attempts to optimize the utility of a communication based on inferred or directly accessed channel reliability data, communicating party preferences and communicating party contexts. Such optimization can be achieved using reliabilities, preferences and policies concerning handling the attempted contact based on a deterministic specification or through inferring reliability, context, content and task under uncertainty by employing decision-theoretic inferences. The methods may consider channels currently available as well as channels available at later times. Thus, the service can include automated rescheduling of communications based on a consideration of forecasts of reliability and availability. The approach may include the use of forecasts about the time required for a communication and the likelihood that a connection will be dropped or will lose fidelity over this period of time. The methods may also include a consideration of metadata within a standard schema that is transmitted along with a communication attempt, the metadata representing information about attributes like the potential communication channels, the identity of the contactor, the task at hand, and the context of the communicating parties. The invocation of the communication service may be performed in a variety of ways, including single button invocations, and via a communication service that is more deeply integrated with other applications and functionalities.
摘要翻译：提供了一种基于通信信道可靠性分析，通信方偏好和通信方背景识别理想通信信道的系统和方法。系统尝试基于推断或直接访问的信道可靠性数据，通信方偏好和通信方上下文来优化通信的效用。可以使用依赖于确定性规范来处理尝试联系的可靠性，偏好和策略来实现这种优化，或通过使用决策理论推断来推断可靠性，上下文，内容和不确定性下的任务。这些方法可能会考虑当前可用的频道以及以后可用的频道。因此，该服务可以包括基于对可靠性和可用性的预测的考虑来自动重新安排通信。该方法可能包括使用关于通信所需时间的预测，以及在这段时间内连接被丢弃或将失去保真度的可能性。所述方法还可以包括与通信尝试一起发送的标准模式内的元数据的考虑，元数据表示关于诸如潜在通信信道的属性的信息，接触器的身份，手头的任务以及沟通方通信服务的调用可以以各种方式执行，包括单按钮调用，以及经由与其他应用和功能更深入地集成的通信服务。

摘要： The present invention relates to a system and methodology for extending and making more appropriate the interactive decisions made by automated services by taking into consideration estimates of the time required by users for the cognitive processing of problems, visualizations, and content based on several factors, including the competency and familiarity of the user with the output and nature of the sequences of output, the complexity of the output and overall tasks being considered, and the context of the user. The methods allow automated applications to control the rate at which the applications interact with users. Portions of automated services are controlled in view of limited human processor capabilities in design/operation of such services, and/or visualizations/output from the services (e.g., amount of dwell time provided/considered before a next automated sequence is displayed/invoked). Models can be formulated and utilized in conjunction with automated services such as automatically determining and pausing a period of time before a next sequence in a service is enabled or disabled. The models can also be employed to determine multiple dwells for comprehension, as a function of complexity of graphical/conceptual relationships, at different phases of an animation.
