  • Patent number: 9208502
    Abstract: Data is received from multiple data sources. At least one of the data sources is an active audio or video communication. The received data is analyzed by extracting instances of a keyword from the received data and analyzing contextual data near the keyword. Sentiment about the extracted keyword is gauged based on the contextual data. The derived sentiment data from the multiple data sources is aggregated, and an aggregated view of the derived sentiment data is presented.

  • Patent number: 8805714
    Abstract: A processor aggregates communications data received from one or more data sources via a communications network. The processor associates the aggregated communications data with supplemental data. The associated communications data is correlated based on temporal data, a tag, a query, and/or a command. A graphical user interface (GUI) is formatted based on the correlated communications data. The formatted GUI is provided to a display device.
