DYNAMICALLY GENERATING A TYPING FEEDBACK INDICATOR FOR RECIPIENT TO PROVIDE CONTEXT OF MESSAGE TO BE RECEIVED BY RECIPIENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17523139 titled 'DYNAMICALLY GENERATING A TYPING FEEDBACK INDICATOR FOR RECIPIENT TO PROVIDE CONTEXT OF MESSAGE TO BE RECEIVED BY RECIPIENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a computer-based method for providing typing feedback to users while composing a message. The system analyzes the text being composed to determine the sentiment, emotion, and topic of the message. Based on this analysis, a typing feedback indicator is generated to give the recipient context awareness of the message before receiving it.

  • The system detects text entered in a message being composed by a user.
  • The text is analyzed to determine the sentiment, emotion, and topic of the message.
  • A typing feedback indicator is generated based on the analysis.
  • The typing feedback indicator is displayed on the recipient's computing device while the user is composing the message.

Potential Applications

  • Email and messaging platforms can use this technology to provide recipients with context awareness of incoming messages.
  • Social media platforms can use this technology to enhance the user experience by providing typing feedback to users.
  • Customer service platforms can utilize this technology to analyze and provide feedback on the sentiment and emotion of customer messages.

Problems Solved

  • Lack of context awareness for recipients of messages before receiving them.
  • Difficulty in understanding the sentiment and emotion behind text-based messages.
  • Inability to provide real-time feedback to users while composing messages.

Benefits

  • Recipients can have a better understanding of the content and tone of incoming messages.
  • Users can receive real-time feedback on the sentiment and emotion of their messages.
  • Improved communication and reduced misunderstandings in text-based conversations.


Original Abstract Submitted

A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for dynamically providing a typing feedback indicator. Text entered in a body of a message that is to be sent to a recipient is detected. Prior to the user (author) sending the message to the recipient, the text of the message being composed by the user is analyzed to determine a sentiment and an emotion as well as to determine a topic of the content of the text. Based on such analyses, as well as possibly based on other criteria, a typing feedback indicator is generated to reflect an indication of the content of the message to be sent to the recipient. The typing feedback indicator may then be displayed on a computing device of the recipient while the user (author) is composing the message thereby providing the recipient context awareness of the message prior to receipt of such a message.
