Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for verifying parameters for a user-created event. In accordance with one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided that comprises receiving a set of parameters for an event created by a user. Further, the method includes verifying the set of parameters for the event by comparing the set of parameters to source data and determining, based on a result of the verification, replacement data for one or more of the set of parameters for the event. The method also includes presenting, on a display device, the replacement data for selection by the user and updating, based on a selection received from the user, the set of parameters for the event to include the replacement data.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented system for verifying parameters for a user-created event, comprising:

a memory device that stores a set of instructions;

at least one processor that executes the instructions to;

receive a set of parameters for an event created by a user,

verify the set of parameters for the event by comparing the set of parameters to source data;

determine, based on a result of the verification, replacement data for one or more of the set of parameters for the event;

present, on a display device, the replacement data for selection by the user; and

update, based on a selection received from the user, the set of parameters for the event to include the replacement data.

2. The computer-implemented system according to claim 1, wherein the source data includes at least one from the group comprising crawled-Internet data, social network or media data, comments from other users, and parameters related to other events.

3. The computer-implemented system according to claim 1, wherein the set of parameters for the event include a time and a location for the event.

4. The computer-implemented system according to claim 2, wherein the replacement data includes at least one from the group comprising an alternative time and an alternative location for the event.

5. The computer-implemented system according to claim 1, wherein the determination of the replacement data is performed when a conflict is identified as a result of the verification of the set of parameters for the event.

6. The computer-implemented system according to claim 5, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of an alternative time for the event.

7. The computer-implemented system according to claim 5, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of an alternative location for the event.

8. The computer-implemented system according to claim 5, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of whether to provide an alternative time or an alternative location for the event.

9. The computer-implemented system according to claim 1, wherein the at least one processor further executes the instructions to:

receive a set of feedback data, from the user or from other users, associated with an improper determination of the replacement data; and

adjust, based on the set of feedback data, a subsequent determination of subsequent replacement data for a subsequent user-created event.

10. The computer-implemented system according to claim 1, wherein the at least one processor further executes the instructions to:

prior to verifying the set of parameters for the event, perform an initial verification of the set of parameters for the event and create the event.

11. The computer-implemented system according to claim 1, wherein the at least one processor further executes the instructions to:

adjust, based on the selection received from the user, a subsequent determination of subsequent replacement data for a subsequent user-created event.

12. A method for verifying parameters for a user-created event, comprising:

receiving a set of parameters for an event created by a user;

verifying the set of parameters for the event by comparing the set of parameters to source data;

determining, based on a result of the verification, replacement data for one or more of the set of parameters for the event;

presenting, on a display device, the replacement data for selection by the user; and

updating, based on a selection received from the user, the set of parameters for the event to include the replacement data.

13. The method according to claim 12, wherein the source data includes at least one from the group comprising crawled-Internet data, social network or media data, comments from other users, and parameters related to other events.

14. The method according to claim 12, wherein the set of parameters for the event include a time and a location for the event.

15. The method according to claim 13, wherein the replacement data includes at least one from the group comprising an alternative time and an alternative location for the event.

16. The method according to claim 12, wherein the determination of the replacement data is performed when a conflict is identified as a result of the verification of the set of parameters for the event.

17. The method according to claim 16, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of an alternative time for the event.

18. The method according to claim 16, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of an alternative location for the event.

19. The method according to claim 16, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of whether to provide an alternative time or an alternative location for the event.

20. The method according to claim 12, further comprising:

receiving a set of feedback data, from the user or from other users, associated with an improper determination of the replacement data; and

adjusting, based on the set of feedback data, a subsequent determination of subsequent replacement data for a subsequent user-created event.

21. The method according to claim 12, further comprising:

prior to verifying the set of parameters for the event, perform an initial verification of the set of parameters for the event and create the event.

22. The method according to claim 12, further comprising:

adjusting, based on the selection received from the user, a subsequent determination of subsequent replacement data for a subsequent user-created event.

23. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

receiving a set of parameters for an event created by a user;

verifying the set of parameters for the event by comparing the set of parameters to source data;

determining, based on a result of the verification, replacement data for one or more of the set of parameters for the event;

presenting, on a display device, the replacement data for selection by the user; and

updating, based on a selection received from the user, the set of parameters for the event to include the replacement data.

24. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 23, wherein the source data includes at least one from the group comprising crawled-Intemet data, social network or media data, comments from other users, and parameters related to other events.

25. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 23, wherein the set of parameters for the event include a time and a location for the event.

26. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 24, wherein the replacement data includes at least one from the group comprising an alternative time and an alternative location for the event.

27. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 23, wherein the determination of the replacement data is performed when a conflict is identified as a result of the verification of the set of parameters for the event.

28. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 27, wherein the determination of the replacement data includes a determination of an alternative time for the event.
