Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for estimating group expertise, the method comprising: executing a query against a knowledge base to retrieve at least one document; retrieving at least one entity associated with the at least one document; assigning at least one relevancy score to the at least one entity; obtaining a filtered list by filtering the at least one entity to contain only entities appearing in a predetermined collection; and assessing findability of the query based on the at least one entity and the relevancy score.

Abstract: Machines, systems and methods for dynamic content filtering are provided. The method comprises receiving an indication for a preference for an approximate number of content to be delivered during an indicated time period; assigning a first score to the first content according to one or more factors, in response to receiving a first content at a first point in time during the first time period; delivering the first content, in response to determining that the first score is above a first dynamically calculated threshold, wherein the first dynamically calculated threshold is calculated based on: t: time of arrival of the first content, k(t): number of contents that has been delivered until the first point in time, K: the approximate number of events to be delivered during the indicated time period, and F: a distribution function calculated based on prior history of the content delivered.

Abstract: Machines, systems and methods for providing an authentication challenge are provided. The method comprises analyzing data stored in a computing system equipped with a graphical user interface (GUI), wherein the data stored is related to identity and relationships among items that have a profile; and based on the analysis, issuing a challenge to authenticate access to one or more content or services available by way of the computing system, in response to a user interaction with the computing system, wherein the response to the challenge is known to a user who has personal knowledge of the identity and relationships among the items with a profile, and wherein the user successfully authenticates against the challenge by interacting with visual presentations of the items by placing the items in an order that indicates a correct relationship between at least two or more of the items.

Abstract: A method comprising using at least one hardware processor for: analyzing text in a digital document, to identify a text segment referring to a figure of the digital document; mapping said text segment to said figure; identifying, in said text segment, reference to one or more non-grayscale colors of said figure, to determine a level of importance of said one or more colors to legibility of said figure; and printing said digital document in accordance with the level of importance.

Abstract: A method and system for visualizing shared route information are provided. The method includes receiving a route query from a user and retrieving multiple route results for the query for display as an overlay on a map. The method further includes processing the route results for display by dividing each route result into sub-routes, wherein a sub-route is a portion of a route between intersections with other routes and aggregating the sub-routes across the route results. Each sub-route in the route results is scored according to a defined scoring basis and represented in the display according to the relative score to other sub-routes. A user can select a displayed sub-route and the method filters the route results to remove any routes not including the selected sub-route and displays the narrowed results.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for dynamic generation of products for online recommendation.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for measuring web site satisfaction of information needs are provided. The method includes: selecting a page for analysis; generating a page profile in the form of a list of keywords representing the page; generating a page traffic profile in the form of lists of keywords representing information needs of users, wherein the page traffic profile is generated from keywords used by users to visit the page; determining the success of users' visits to the page; and analyzing whether a page satisfies users' information needs by applying a distance measure between the keywords of the page profile and the keywords of the page traffic profile and combining the distance measure result with a success rate of the keywords.
