  • Application display and discovery by predicting behavior through machine-learning
    Patent number: 11442748
    Abstract: Systems and methods for ordering software applications in a computing environment. The methods involve: presenting user-selectable icons for launching a plurality of software applications in a graphical user interface in accordance with a first order; performing a machine-learning algorithm to determine a weighting value for each software application of the plurality of software applications based on information specifying at least one aspect of a software launch request and at least one aspect of a first user's current circumstance; determining a second order in which the user-selectable icons should be presented in the graphical user interface based on the weighting values determined for the software applications; and dynamically modifying the graphical user interface to present the user-selectable icons in the second order which is different from the first order.
