Method and system for generating vehicle service content from metadata representing meaning of vehicle service data
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- identifying, by a processor, first vehicle service data represents terms of a natural human language that match one or more taxonomy terms within a defined taxonomy searchable by the processor, wherein a first identifier uniquely identifies the first vehicle service data;
associating, by the processor, a meaning with the first vehicle service data based on the terms of the natural human language represented by the first vehicle service data that match the one or more taxonomy terms;
generating, by the processor, first metadata that represents the meaning associated with the first vehicle service data;
generating vehicle service content based at least in part on the first metadata;
generating, by the processor, second metadata that represents a meaning with at least a portion of second vehicle service data;
aggregating, by the processor, at least the first metadata and the second metadata to produce aggregated metadata;
associating, by the processor, the first identifier with the first metadata;
receiving a request for the vehicle service content, wherein the request includes the first identifier and/or the first metadata, andin response to the request for the vehicle service content, sending the vehicle service content to be displayed by a service tool.

Abstract
Methods and systems for using natural language processing and machine-learning algorithms to process vehicle-service data to generate metadata regarding the vehicle-service data are described herein. A processor can discover vehicle-service data that can be clustered together based on the vehicle-service data having common characteristics. The clustered vehicle-service data can be classified (e.g., categorized) into any one of a plurality of categories. One of the categories can be for clustered vehicle-service data that is tip-worthy (e.g., determined to include data worthy of generating vehicle-service content (e.g., a repair hint). Another category can track instances of vehicle-service data that are considered to be common to an instance of vehicle-service data classified into the tip-worthy category. The vehicle-service data can be collected from repair orders from a plurality of repair shops. The vehicle-service content generated by the systems can be provided to those or other repair shops.

18. A computing device comprising a processor and a computer-readable medium storing program instructions, that when executed by the processor, cause the computing device to perform a set of functions comprising:
-
identifying first vehicle service data represents terms of a natural human language that match one or more taxonomy terms within a defined taxonomy searchable by the computing device, wherein a first identifier uniquely identifies the first vehicle service data; associating, by the computing device, a meaning with the first vehicle service data based on the terms of the natural human language represented by the first vehicle service data that match the one or more taxonomy terms; generating, by the computing device, first metadata that represents the meaning associated with the first vehicle service data; generating vehicle service content based at least in part on the first metadata; generating, by the computing device, second metadata that represents a meaning with at least a portion of second vehicle service data; associating, by the processor, the first identifier with the first metadata; aggregating, by the computing device, at least the first metadata and the second metadata to produce aggregated metadata; receiving a request for the vehicle service content, wherein the request includes the first identifier and/or the first metadata, and in response to the request for the vehicle service content, sending the vehicle service content to be displayed by a service tool. - View Dependent Claims (19)

-
identifying first vehicle service data represents terms of a natural human language that match one or more taxonomy terms within a defined taxonomy searchable by the computing device, wherein a first identifier uniquely identifies the first vehicle service data; associating a meaning with the first vehicle service data based on the terms of the natural human language represented by the first vehicle service data that match the one or more taxonomy terms; generating first metadata that represents the meaning associated with the first vehicle service data; generating vehicle service content based at least in part on the first metadata; generating second metadata that represents a meaning with at least a portion of second vehicle service data; aggregating at least the first metadata and the second metadata to produce aggregated metadata; associating, by the processor, the first identifier with the first metadata; receiving a request for the vehicle service content, wherein the request includes the first identifier and/or the first metadata, and in response to the request for the vehicle service content, sending the vehicle service content to be displayed by a service tool.
