WEIGHTED SCROLL FOR DISPLAY OF HIERARCHICAL STRUCTURES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18124304 titled 'WEIGHTED SCROLL FOR DISPLAY OF HIERARCHICAL STRUCTURES
- Simplified Explanation:
The patent application describes a method where a first dataset with a hierarchical data structure is displayed in a user interface. Urgency scores are calculated for certain nodes in the dataset, indicating their proximity to the end of the dataset. If the urgency score is above a threshold, a request is made for a second dataset with a similar structure.
- Key Features and Innovation:
- Displaying a hierarchical dataset in a user interface - Calculating urgency scores for nodes based on their distance to the end of the dataset - Requesting a new dataset if certain nodes are deemed urgent
- Potential Applications:
- Data visualization tools - Task management applications - Content recommendation systems
- Problems Solved:
- Efficiently navigating large datasets - Prioritizing nodes based on their position in the dataset - Improving user experience in handling hierarchical data structures
- Benefits:
- Enhanced data organization - Improved decision-making based on urgency scores - Streamlined access to relevant information
- Commercial Applications:
Title: Hierarchical Data Structure Visualization Tool for Enhanced Data Management This technology could be used in data analytics software, project management tools, and knowledge management systems to improve data organization and decision-making processes.
- Prior Art:
Researchers can explore existing data visualization techniques, hierarchical data structure management systems, and user interface design principles related to displaying complex datasets.
- Frequently Updated Research:
Stay updated on advancements in data visualization algorithms, user interface design trends, and hierarchical data structure optimization techniques to enhance the functionality of this technology.
Questions about Hierarchical Data Structure Visualization: 1. How does this technology improve data navigation and organization? 2. What are the potential limitations of using urgency scores to prioritize nodes in a dataset?
Original Abstract Submitted
In various examples, a first dataset including a first set of nodes maintained in a hierarchical data structure is obtained and displayed in a user interface. Urgency scores are then determined for a subset of nodes of the set of nodes displayed in the user interface, the urgency score indicating that the portion of the first dataset displayed in the user interface is within a distance to an end of the first data set, and based on the urgency score being above a threshold, causing a request for a second dataset including a second set of nodes maintained in the hierarchical data structure to be generated.
