Abstract: A network crawler crawls one or more media sites to extract a plurality of titles for information contained in the one or more media sites. For example, the network crawler may extract the titles on the one or more media sites by identifying different computer formats and converting the titles in the different computer formats into a common computer format for comparison. User profiles which, includes user's interest are stored in a user profile interest database. A novel personalized news recommendation engine recommends news similar to the interest specified in a user profile, where maximum weighted matching is applied to score the similarity of news against user interest in the word2vec space.

Abstract: A method and system for authenticating a user of a vehicle are described. In one embodiment, a user profile is associated with a user of a vehicle. The user profile is used to compare a sample of the voice of the user with a database onboard the vehicle as well as a database stored on a network connected server in communication with the vehicle. A user profile may be associated with a number of vehicles. Users may have a number of levels of permissions associated with a number of different vehicles. A user may be enabled to access a number of vehicle features by providing a voice sample via microphones in and around the vehicle. A voiceprint associated with the user may be improved based upon audio collected by microphones in and around the vehicle.
