  • Patent number: 11422997
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and computer processing system are provided. The method includes identifying, by a processor, atomic operations within a sequence of data elements and metadata associated with the atomic operations. The sequence of data elements is related to an interaction between a user and a user interface of a computer system that includes the processor. The method also includes calculating, by the processor, correlation indexes from the metadata. A respective correlation index is calculated for various atomic operation groups formed from the atomic operations. The method additionally includes identifying, by the processor, a macro operation from at least one of the correlation indexes. The macro operation includes multiple correlated atomic operations from among the atomic operations identified within the sequence.

  • Patent number: 10904191
    Abstract: A method is provided for deleting a content element of a chat history lacking long-term relevance. The method includes receiving a content element, assigning the content element to a topic, determining a relationship index value for the content element to the topic using a validity value, which is a function of an access rate and a credibility index value. The method also includes comparing the relationship index threshold value for the topic of a first chat user, where the content element has been generated by a second chat user, and linking the content element of the second chat user to the topic in the chat history of the first user. The content element is deleted if it is not linked to any other chat history of another chat user of the plurality of chat users, thereby saving long-term chat storage space.

  • Publication number: 20200151159
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and computer processing system are provided. The method includes identifying, by a processor, atomic operations within a sequence of data elements and metadata associated with the atomic operations. The sequence of data elements is related to an interaction between a user and a user interface of a computer system that includes the processor. The method also includes calculating, by the processor, correlation indexes from the metadata. A respective correlation index is calculated for various atomic operation groups formed from the atomic operations. The method additionally includes identifying, by the processor, a macro operation from at least one of the correlation indexes. The macro operation includes multiple correlated atomic operations from among the atomic operations identified within the sequence.

  • Patent number: 9760767
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for rating applications. Execution of an application on a computing device is monitored to determine usage information for a user. Embodiments capture a plurality of images and for each of the plurality of images, extract, from the respective image, a set of user facial features and determine an user emotional state corresponding to the respective set of user facial features by applying a model correlating a set of predefined emotional states with corresponding predefined facial features. A trend of user emotional states across a plurality of executions of the application on the computing device is determined. Embodiments calculate a rating for the application based on the usage information, the user emotional states, and the trend of the user emotional states. The rating is sent to a server over a network connection for use in an aggregate rating of the application.
