A system provides recommendations of web sites, web pages, and/or products to a user based on web pages viewed during a current browsing session. In one embodiment, a browser plug-in or other client program monitors and reports information regarding browsing activities of users across multiple web sites. The resulting cross-site browse histories of the users are analyzed on an aggregated basis to detect behavior-based associations between particular sites, pages and/or products. The detected associations are in turn used to provide personalized recommendations to users. The associations and recommendations may also be based on an automated analysis of the content of the web pages represented in the users' browse histories.

A system is disclosed that uses behavioral data collected by ISPs to categorize particular ISP subscribers. The behavioral data may, for example, include the identities of particular web sites and/or web pages accessed by particular subscribers, the search queries used by the subscribers to conduct Internet searches, and/or other types of behavioral information. The ISP subscribers are assigned to particular behavioral categories or “segments” using a behavioral segmentation schema that maps particular subscriber behaviors to particular behavioral segments. The ISP subscribers may also be mapped to other segment types, such as demographic segments derived from off-line data about the subscribers. The subscriber-to-segment mappings are made available to content targeting entities via a query interface that, for example, supports queries of the form “what are the segments associated with IP address X?”

A collaborative system and method are used to capture, organize, share and preserve life stories. Life stories can be expressed in first person or third person. In either case, the process of developing the life stories is carried out with collaboration with and contributions from other users. The collaboration among the users is desirable because it serves to encourage and prompt users to record their life stories and also increases the relevance of the recorded life stories, so that an online community of users containing highly relevant and meaningful content, that is also relatively permanent in nature, about the users can be created.

This invention provides a method and system for analyzing and deriving analytical insights from textual information. The information structuration process determines the structure in which the text information is rendered. A cyclical extraction process using the parameters of co-frequency, co-dependency, and co-relatedness and parts of speech, determines various textual aspects and their subcomponents such as themes and dimensions. Using the subcomponents of the textual aspects, relationship maps are built, disambiguated and ranked. A text analytics and decision support matrix is created using the ranked relations, thereby providing a highly relevant result set to the user's information need. A multidimensional navigation matrix is created that helps a user navigate across dimensions.

A system for selecting a region of interest in an image is provided. A user interface (1) is applied for receiving user input indicative of a region of interest (504) in an image (502). A slab selector (2) is provided for selecting a position and a thickness of a slab (503) of the image (502), based on a position and a size of the region of interest (504), the slab (503) comprising at least part of the region of interest (504). A visualization subsystem (3) is provided for visualizing the slab (503). The slab selector (2) is arranged for selecting the position and thickness of the slab (503) such that the slab (503) comprises the region of interest (504) and a thickness of the slab (503) corresponds to a size of the region of interest (504) in a thickness direction of the slab (503). The image comprises a dynamic image. The projection image (505) is obtained by processing voxel values of the dynamic image both along a ray and temporally.

The invention relates to a focusing relevancy ordering method for a vertical search engine. Aiming at the problem that a focused crawler cannot pass through a dark tunnel, the invention improves a focused crawling strategy of the focused crawler by using an on-line learning method and utilizing an auxiliary function, so as to lead the focused crawler to capture subject data with higher relevancy. A PageRank algorithm and an improved algorithm thereof are studied, the webpage clicking action of a user is modeled, and the transferring way of a PageRank value among links is improved, so as to put forward the improved algorithm. As to the disadvantage that the dimensionality of a feature extraction model of webpage weight is over high, a user-defined method of the webpage weight is put forward, so as to define a factor of the webpage weight and measure the weight of the factor of the webpage weight according to the divisibility criterion, thereby providing an evaluation function of the webpage weight and effectively lowering the dimensionality of a webpage feature space. By utilizing the method in the invention, the user can obtain a high-quality search result set when using a subject resource search engine system.

A method and system for searching a broad set of electronically based unrelated documents in a manner that identifies the interlinking characteristics between the documents returned via several iterative levels of search results is provided. The interlinking characteristics are then analyzed using a betweenness centrality algorithm to calculate the relative strength of the interlinking relationships in order to identify and create the shortest search paths that lead a user to results having the highest betweeness centrality or having the highest relevance to the stated query.

A navigation apparatus acquires weather information along a navigation route to a destination from an information center and calculates an importance that is assigned to the weather information based on a predetermined criterion as well as a determination mode and a travel purpose inputted from a user. The importance of the weather information may be calculated by employing an importance calculation table that defines importance of the weather information itself or the importance of the weather information relative to the navigation route. The importance of the weather information is used to extract a required part of the weather information for providing the user with the information. The weather information extraction may be performed according to a criterion such as extracting the weather information with a certain importance level or higher, extracting the weather information of top n th importance, or the like.

Embodiments disclosed herein can leverage dynamic data, fields and implied information from online media (e.g., web sites, mobile apps and other forms of online media) to create a universal variable map and automatically generate deep-linked ads utilizing the universal variable map, linking any arbitrary online media to any other arbitrary online media. The automatically generated deep-linked ads can be inserted into any ad server and served out from there in real-time. A deep-linked ad thus presented to a user can take the user from a starting page on one site or application where the ad is displayed directly to a resulting page such as a checkout page on another site or mobile application, with pertinent information already pre-populated, and action already initiated for the user.

A method for selecting and pricing advertising to accompany published digital content and printed copies of such content that people pass along to others via e-mail, print, blogs, RSS feeds, websites, hardcopy, and other distribution and republishing mediums. Ads placed in the passed-along content will typically be different from, and more relevant than, ads that were displayed with the content when it was presented to the first reader—who then decided to pass it along, and therefore the ads may be billed out by the publisher at a higher price because they now have greater value.

The invention discloses an electric power line interference signal extraction and synchronous playback device. The device is composed of a signal collection module, a signal playback module, a signal processing module, a signal storage module, a mode control module, a network communication module, a clock generation module and a control output module. Tested signals are collected by the signal collection module and are transmitted to the signal processing module for processing. The signal processing module stores the processed signals in the signal storage module and transmits the processed signals to the signal playback module. Triggering signals are input through the mode control module, so that the signal playback module is controlled by generated clock signals to output playback signals. The mode control module is connected with a network port through the network communication module. The mode control module is also connected with the control output module. The control output module is used for controlling output of state indication signals. Isolated sampling and high fidelity playback for non-working frequency signals on an electric power line are realized. The device can be applied to detection of a carrier communication function and an anti-interference capability test of a communication metering function of a meter.

Herein is described a method and system for optimising the delivery of content to mobile devices using microzones and macrozones and their associated methodologies. The macrozone method reduces the amount of content transferred to mobile devices. The macrozone method simplifies the determination of relevant microzones. The macrozone method also reduces the communication required between server and mobile device. The microzone method simplifies calculations for determining proximity to locations and narrows the focus for delivery of information based on proximity. The microzone method combined with the macrozone method reduces the total calculations and communications required within the total system. The system is further optimised by using microtimes and microcategories. The creation and management of content relating to microzones, microtimes and microcategories is managed through a campaign management system. Users of mobile devices receive content that is relevant geographically and contextually; with a reduced impact on the mobile device's resources.
