1. A method of providing a suggestion to a user, comprising:

  • sensing context data related to a user environment through at least one sensor of a processing device, wherein the sensed context data is modelled as a vector by generating a scene graph, the scene graph being a hierarchical data structure comprising geometrical and spatial nodes that represent a user'"'"'s current and past environments, data related to those nodes, and lists of data that the user manages;

    generating a hypothesis of information of interest to a user, based on one or more lists of items reflecting a preference of the user and the sensed context data, bygenerating at least two vectors comprising one vector that is based on the one or more lists of items and another vector that is based on the sensed context data andassessing a degree in which the generated vectors match by determining to what degree various dimensions of the generated vectors exhibit a correlation using vector space modeling; and

    identifying at least one item consistent with the hypothesis, for presentation to the user as a suggestion, based on the generated hypothesis.
