SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING SCORES FOR MESSAGES BASED ON ACTIONS OF MESSAGE RECIPIENTS AND A NETWORK GRAPH - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240129268 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING SCORES FOR MESSAGES BASED ON ACTIONS OF MESSAGE RECIPIENTS AND A NETWORK GRAPH

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and system for displaying email messages on a screen based on scores associated with the messages. The scores are determined by actions taken by other recipients of the email messages.

  • The email ranking system assigns scores to email messages based on actions taken by other recipients.
  • The scores are calculated using different weights for actions based on the recipient's connection to the user.
  • A network graph indicates the closeness of the recipient's connection to the user and the type of connection.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in email clients to prioritize and display messages based on their relevance to the user.

Problems Solved

This technology helps users manage their email inbox more efficiently by highlighting important messages and reducing clutter.

Benefits

Users can save time and focus on important emails by having them displayed prominently on their screen.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Email Message Ranking System for Enhanced User Experience"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to email filtering and prioritization systems, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system determine the weights for different actions taken by recipients?

The abstract does not provide details on how the system assigns weights to different actions based on the recipient's connection to the user.

What types of actions taken by recipients are considered in calculating the scores for email messages?

The abstract mentions actions taken by other recipients, but it does not specify the exact actions that are taken into account in determining the scores.


Original Abstract Submitted

methods and systems cause display of email messages of a user on a screen of a computing system based on scores associated with the email messages. an email ranking system may have assigned the scores to the email messages. the scores are based on actions that other recipients of the email messages have taken with respect to the email messages. in calculating the scores, the actions of the other recipients may receive different weights based on how closely connected a recipient is to the user and a type of connection the recipient has to the user. a network graph may indicate how closely connected the recipient is to the user and the type of connection the recipient has to the user.
