  • Patent number: 11954645
    Abstract: Participant inclusion determination can include generating a textual analysis of a draft of an electronic communication in response to a sender preparing the draft for conveyance over an electronic communications network. A word relevance score can be computed for each word of the draft based on the textual analysis. Probabilistically weighted distances between the sender, an initial recipient of the electronic communication, and more additional recipient candidates for additionally receiving the electronic communication can be determined. The probabilistically weighted distances can correspond to hierarchical distances within a hierarchical structure corresponding to an organization in which the sender, the initial recipient, and one or more additional recipient candidates are members.
