SMARTER COLLABORATIVE CONFERENCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17942641 titled 'SMARTER COLLABORATIVE CONFERENCES
Simplified Explanation
The computer-implemented method described in the abstract is for automatically recommending a reconnection time for online meeting participants who have been disconnected. The method uses historical data to predict when the disconnected participants will return online and notifies them accordingly.
- Collect disconnection information for online meeting participants over time
- Construct a predictive model based on historical data
- Predict reconnection time for disconnected participants
- Notify participants when a disconnected member is expected to return online
- Update meeting agenda if reconnection time exceeds a predefined threshold
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various online meeting platforms to improve user experience and ensure seamless communication during virtual meetings.
Problems Solved
1. Addressing disconnections during online meetings 2. Improving meeting efficiency by predicting reconnection times 3. Enhancing overall meeting experience for participants
Benefits

Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Online Meeting Reconnection Time Prediction for Enhanced User Experience
Original Abstract Submitted
A computer-implemented method for automatically recommending an online meeting reconnection time for one or more online meeting participants that are disconnected. The method collects disconnection information for one or more online meeting participants over time as historical data. The method constructs a predictive model for the one or more online meeting participants based on the historical data and predicts a reconnection time for the one or more online meeting participants based on the predictive model. The method notifies the one or more online meeting participants when a disconnected participant is expected to return online and updates the online meeting agenda if the disconnected participant's reconnection time exceeds a predefined threshold.
