  • Patent number: 9166823
    Abstract: Messaging Service Plus Context Data. A message of a specified mobile device communications protocol is parsed. The message is analyzed to identify a message data. A signal associated with the message is evaluated to determine a context data. The context data provides a contextual attribute of the message. The message data is algorithmically associated with the context data. Further, the other message includes the message data and the context data. A context enhancement data is determined to enrich a meaning of the context data. The context enhancement data is acquired from a database. The other message may be generated. The other message includes the message data, the context data and context enhancement data.

  • Publication number: 20120203640
    Abstract: In one exemplary embodiment, an implicit social graph may be generated using eye-tracking data. Eye-tracking data associated with a visual component may be received from a user device. One or more attributes may be associated with a user of the user device based on the association between the eye-tracking data and the visual component. Based on these attributes, an implicit social graph may be generated. A suggestion, such as a suggestion of another user, a product, an offer, or a targeted advertisement may be provided to the user.

  • Publication number: 20120094700
    Abstract: In one exemplary embodiment, a text message may be sent in which eye-tracking data is used to associate information with a portion of the text message. A text message input by a user may be displayed, with eye-tracking data from the user indicating an expectation associated with a portion of the text message. The expectation may cause information related to the portion of the text message to be associated with the portion of the message.

  • Patent number: 7580719
    Abstract: A Short Message Service (SMS) enables a sender to send an asynchronous short message (often informal) from his source device to one or more receiving devices that are specified by the sender and represent one or more recipients. The SMS associates with each particular short message specific context information about that particular message (including its originator, recipient, type, reason for sending, and the sending time). The SMS may associate further specific context information it has already about previous messages or previously-established links and patterns, without further input from the sender, and display that associated specific context information to the recipient. By parsing and analyzing the combined asynchronous short message and its associated specific context information, using cultural, linguistic, and reverse-association means, a SMS can provide context-driven support for any social or formal obligation(s) conveyed by an individual short message.

  • Patent number: 7551935
    Abstract: A Short Message Service (SMS) enables a sender to send an asynchronous short text message from his source device to one or more receiving devices specified by the sender that represent one or more recipients. SMS+4D embeds, and allows the recipient to elicit contextual and explanatory information concerning the meaning of the short text message from the SMS, thus creating ‘sideband’ capability for text messages analogous to the visual and aural cues from accompanying facial and body expressiveness and the tone, timbre, pitch, and timing of a spoken message. SMS+4D may also learn, through embedded formal analysis and pattern comprehension, to associate specific contextual information to support the sender's original meaning, thereby clarifying surficially indefinite text words, phrases, or structures.
