CONTEXTUAL ESTIMATION OF LINK INFORMATION GAIN - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18215032 Titled 'CONTEXTUAL ESTIMATION OF LINK INFORMATION GAIN'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes techniques for determining an information gain score for documents and presenting information from those documents to the user based on the score. The information gain score represents the additional information present in a document compared to previously viewed documents. This score is calculated using a machine learning model that analyzes the data in the documents. By considering the information gain scores of a set of documents, the system can provide the user with documents that are likely to provide the most valuable information.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques are described herein for determining an information gain score for one or more documents of interest to the user and present information from the documents based on the information gain score. An information gain score for a given document is indicative of additional information that is included in the document beyond information contained in documents that were previously viewed by the user. In some implementations, the information gain score may be determined for one or more documents by applying data from the documents across a machine learning model to generate an information gain score. Based on the information gain scores of a set of documents, the documents can be provided to the user in a manner that reflects the likely information gain that can be attained by the user if the user were to view the documents.
