Apparatus for aggregating individuals based on association variables
First Claim
1. An apparatus to aggregate individuals based on at least a subset of a group of headache triggers, comprising:
- at least one processor;
at least one memory; and
at least one program module, the program module stored in the memory and configurable to be executed by the processor, the program module including;
instructions for determining the group of headache triggers that at least in part induce a headache associated with a type of headache in at least one individual if at least the one individual is exposed to one or more of the headache triggers, wherein the group of headache triggers includes two or more headache triggers that inter-operate with each other for a range of exposure values so that the headache is induced when at least the one individual is exposed to at least the two or more headache triggers within corresponding time intervals preceding an onset of the headache;
instructions for selecting a first forum from multiple preexisting forums-based on at least the subset, wherein the first forum is associated with a group of headache sufferers that each experience one or more headaches when exposed to at least the subset, and wherein the first forum facilitates exchange of first information associated with the type of headache and the subset; and
instructions for providing second information associated with the first forum to at least the one individual.

Abstract
An apparatus for aggregating individuals based on variables associated with a type of headache is described. The apparatus may include at least one processor, at least one memory, and at least one program module. The program module may be stored in the memory and may be configured or configurable to be executed by the processor. The program module may include instructions for receiving a list of variables, where the variables in the list of variables may be triggers that at least in part induce a headache associated with the type of headache in at least one individual if at least the one individual is exposed to one or more of the variables. The program module may include instructions for selecting a first forum from multiple forums. Note that the selection is based on at least a subset of the variables in the list of variables, the first forum is associated with the type of headache and at least the subset of the variables, and the first forum facilitates exchange of first information associated with the type of headache. Furthermore, the program module may include instructions for providing second information associated with the first forum to at least the one individual.

18. A non-transitory computer-program product for use in conjunction with a computer system, the computer-program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium and a computer-program mechanism embedded therein to aggregate individuals based at least on a subset of a group of headache triggers, the computer-program mechanism including:
-
instructions for determining the group of headache triggers that at least in part induce a headache associated with a type of headache in at least one individual if at least the one individual is exposed to one or more of the headache triggers, wherein the group of headache triggers includes two or more headache triggers that inter-operate with each other for a range of exposure values so that the headache is induced when at least the one individual is exposed to at least the two or more headache triggers within corresponding time intervals preceding an onset of the headache; instructions for selecting a first forum from multiple preexisting forums based on at least the subset, wherein the first forum is associated with a group of headache sufferers that each experience one or more headaches when exposed to at least the subset, and wherein the first forum facilitates exchange of first information associated with the type of headache and the subset; and instructions for providing second information associated with the first forum to at least the one individual.

19. A computer-implemented method for aggregating individuals based on at least a subset of a group of headache triggers, comprising:
-
determining the group of headache triggers that at least in part induce a headache associated with a type of headache in at least one individual if at least the one individual is exposed to one or more of the headache triggers, wherein the group of headache triggers includes two or more headache triggers that inter-operate with each other for a range of exposure values so that the headache is induced when at least the one individual is exposed to at least the two or more headache triggers within corresponding time intervals preceding an onset of the headache; selecting, using a computer, a first forum from multiple preexisting forums based on at least the subset, wherein the first forum is associated with a group of headache sufferers that each experience one or more headaches when exposed to at least the subset, and wherein the first forum facilitates exchange of first information associated with the type of headache and the subset; and providing second information associated with the first forum to at least the one individual.
