  • Estimating document reading and comprehension time for use in time management systems
    Patent number: 10755044
    Abstract: A method and device. The device determines an initial estimate of an amount of time for a generic user to read a document, wherein the initial estimate is determined based on a value of one or more parameters associated with the document. The device determines an estimate correction parameter for modifying the determined initial estimate to compensate for a particular user who will read the document, a particular context n which the particular user will read the document, or a combination thereof. The device uses the initial estimate and the estimate correction parameter to determine an estimate of the amount of time for the particular user to read the document.
