Automatically generated highlight view of electronic interactions
First Claim
1. An electronic interactions highlight system recorded on computer-readable storage media and capable of execution by a computer, the electronic interactions highlight system comprising:
- an input component configured to receive a plurality of electronic interactions;
an analysis component configured to monitor a user'"'"'s actions and employ observations to personalize a highlight view for a particular user or group of users by analyzing the plurality of electronic interactions and employing a collaborative filtering model and keyword extraction to automatically generate the highlight view, the highlight view organized based on a relevance of each of the plurality of electronic interactions, the relevance determined based on a quantity of electronic interactions associated with a particular discussion topic and a size of the electronic interactions associated with the particular discussion topic; and
an output component configured to send via email the highlight view to the particular user or the group of users, wherein;
the highlight view is organized based on relevance of a plurality of discussion topics determined via keywords extracted from all or a part of the plurality of electronic interactions,extraneous information is identified by the analysis component and blocked from the user in the generated highlight view, anda threshold time period is identified and evidence of the user'"'"'s preferences is gathered implicitly by monitoring content that the user has dwelled on for the threshold amount of time and monitoring items that the user has requested to be viewed.

Abstract
A system and method for generating a highlight view of electronic interactions, such as, emails, instant messages, audio messages and/or video messages is provided. The highlight view can facilitate a user'"'"'s understanding of the electronic interactions.
The electronic interactions can comprise emails associated with conversation threads of a discussion list posted and/or received by a plurality of users. The highlight view system can include, for a given period of time, a list of participants in the discussion list, a list of conversation threads and/or a linear progression of one or more of the conversation threads. The linear progression of one or more conversation threads can include signal word(s), such as, “stated, “asked”, “responded”, “wrapped up”, “disagreed”, “agreed” etc. that facilitate a user'"'"'s comprehension of the individual e-mails which form the conversation thread.
An electronic interactions highlight system can include an input component that receives electronic interactions (e.g., emails associated with conversation thread(s) of a discussion list) and an analysis component that analyzes the electronic interactions and automatically generates a highlight view of the electronic interactions.

13. A method comprising:
-
under control of one or more processors configured with instructions executable by the one or more processors to perform acts comprising; receiving a plurality of electronic interactions; performing an analysis of the plurality of electronic interactions using a collaborative filtering model and keyword extraction, including identifying actions of a user in the plurality of electronic interactions, identifying content that the user has dwelled on for a threshold time period, and identifying items that the user has requested for viewing; determining preferences associated with the user based on the analysis; automatically generating a highlight view for the user, the highlight view blocking extraneous information from the user, the highlight view organized based on a relevance of each of the plurality of electronic interactions, the relevance determined based on; a quantity of electronic interactions associated with a particular discussion topic, a size of the electronic interactions associated with the particular discussion topic, a relevance of a plurality of discussion topics determined via keywords extracted from at least a portion of the plurality of electronic interactions, and the gathered preferences; and sending, to the user, an electronic message that includes the highlight view. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
