The patent describes a single location and application on a network where a user can organize public, group, and private/personal information and have this single, location accessible to the public. A new, ontology-driven portal that organizes all three categories of data according to various “facets” using underlying ontologies to define each “facet” and wherein any type of information can be classified and linked to other types of information is disclosed. An application that enables a user to effectively utilize and manage knowledge and data the user posses and allows other users to effectively and seamlessly benefit from the user's knowledge and data over a computer network is also disclosed. A method of processing content created by a user utilizing a semantic, ontology-driven portal on a computer network is described. The semantic portal application provides the user with a content base, such as a semantic form or meta-form, for creating a semantic posting. The semantic portal utilizes a knowledge data structure, such as a taxonomy or ontology, in preparing a semantic posting based on the information provided by the user via the content base. The semantic portal application prepares a preview of a semantic posting for evaluation by the user. The semantic posting is then either modified by the user or accepted and posted by the user for external parties to view.

The sentimental significance of a group of historical documents related to a topic is assessed with respect to change in an extrinsic metric for the topic. A unique sentiment binding label is included to the content of actions documents that are determined to have sentimental significance and the group of documents is inserted into a historical document sentiment vector space for the topic. Action areas in the vector space are defined from the locations of action documents and singular sentiment vector may be created that describes the cumulative action area. Newly published documents are sentiment-scored by semantically comparing them to documents in the space and/or to the singular sentiment vector. The sentiment scores for the newly published documents are supplemented by human sentiment assessment of the documents and a sentiment time decay factor is applied to the supplemented sentiment score of each newly published documents. User queries are received and a set of sentiment-ranked documents is returned with the highest age-adjusted sentiment scores.

Embodiments of the present invention relate to knowledge representation systems which include a knowledge base in which knowledge is represented in a structured, machine-readable format that encodes meaning.

A method and system for automatic data categorization in response to a user query. A document set is retrieved in response to the user query. A semantic parser parses the document set and produces semantic term-groups by parsing a semantic network of nodes. A seed ranker produces a plurality of advantageously spaced semantic seeds based on the semantic term-groups. A category accumulator stores the advantageously spaced semantic seeds. The semantic network of nodes is augmented with the advantageously spaced semantic seeds.

A system for exchanging click-through traffic between web sites of interested exchange partners on the Internet employs an intermediary web site for registering interested exchange partners and conducting a trial process for click-through traffic between exchange partners' web sites during a trial period prior to opening a bidding process of the interested exchange partners for an exchange partner's click-through traffic. Each exchange partner's web site is linked to the intermediary web site by embedding a links code which points to an addressable file stored with the intermediary web site containing the link content of each interested exchange partner's web site to be displayed in the links area on an exchange partner's web site during the trial process. The results of the exchange trials are compared with metrics for the exchange parameters that inform the exchange participants of the success of their interaction. The intermediary web site can then conduct a bidding process where the exchange participants can bid for click-through traffic from the exchange partner's web site. Based on the bidding process, the best matched exchange partners can establish an exchange relationship in which mutual click-through traffic is exchanged between the exchange partners' web sites.

A system and method for creating a predictive model to select an object from a group of objects that can be associated with a requested web page, wherein a configuration of the requested web page defines a subgroup of one or more selected objects from the group of objects. Exemplary embodiments of the present invention seek to provide novel solutions for determining which content object, taken from a group of content objects, will be best suited for presentation in association with a link on a web page that has been requested by a certain surfer. Each web page can include one or more links to be associated with content objects from the group.

For each content object presented over a requested web page, a predictive model with relevant predictive factors is processed such that the predicted objective, the probability of success for example, is calculated. A success is defined as a surfer responding to the presented content. For example, should a surfer select a relevant content object, the probability of the objects that can be presented is calculated. Subsequently, the objects with the highest predictive expected utility are selected to be associated with the links in the web page requested by the surfer.
