Accelerated training of personal daemons
First Claim
1. A mobile computing device configured to provide personal assistance to an associated user, the mobile computing device comprising a processor and a memory, wherein the processor executes instructions to provide personal assistant to the associated user in conjunction with additional executable components, the additional executable components comprising:
- a personal daemon providing personal assistance to an associated user of the mobile computing device according to personal information of the associated user and without user input, wherein the personal information represents one or more aspects of the user, and wherein the personal daemon is configured to;
operate in the background of the mobile computing device;
maintain a data store of personal information regarding the associated user;
monitor actions of the associated user made in conjunction with the mobile computing device;
execute a personal assistance action on behalf of the associated user according to personal information of the associated user in response to a received notice of an event and according to a set of heuristics maintained by the personal daemon;
wherein the personal daemon is further configured to not share the personal information of the associated user with any other entity other than the associated user except under conditions of heuristics established by the associated user; and
wherein the set of heuristics for executing a personal assistance action on behalf of the associated user includes a predetermined set of heuristics obtained from a personal daemon model selected by the associated user.

Abstract
Systems and methods of a personal daemon, executing as a background process on a mobile computing device, for providing personal assistant to an associated user is presented. While the personal daemon maintains personal information corresponding to the associated user, the personal daemon is configured to not share the personal information of the associated user with any other entity other than the associated user except under conditions of heuristics and behaviors established by the associated user. The personal daemon monitors and analyzes the actions of the associated user to determine additional personal information of the associated user. Additionally, upon receiving one or more notices of events from a plurality of sensors associated with the mobile computing device, the personal daemon executes a personal assistance action on behalf of the associated user.

9. A computing device-implemented method for providing personal assistance to an associated user, the method comprising each of the following as implemented by a personal daemon process running in the background on a mobile computing device:
-
gathering an initial set of personal information relating to the associated user, the personal information representing one or more aspects of the associated user; presenting a set of personal daemon models to the associated user, each personal daemon model comprising a predetermined set of heuristics for providing personal assistance according to personal information of the associated user and without user input by a personal daemon; receiving a selection by the associated user of a personal daemon model; updating the personal daemon with the predetermined set of heuristics in a store of personal information; receiving a notice of a subscribed event relating to the associated user, wherein the subscribed event corresponds to one of the predetermined set of heuristics; consulting the predetermined set of heuristics to identify one or more actions to be taken on behalf of the associated user in regard to receiving the subscribed event; and executing, without user input, the identified actions on the computing device on behalf of the associated user. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable medium bearing computer-executable instructions which, when executed on a mobile computing device having at least a processor and a memory, carry out a method for providing personal assistance to a user, the method comprising:
-
gathering an initial set of personal information relating to the associated user, the personal information representing one or more aspects of the associated user; presenting a set of personal daemon models to the associated user, each personal daemon model comprising a predetermined set of heuristics for providing personal assistance according to personal information of the associated user and without user input without user input by a personal daemon; receiving a selection by the associated user of a personal daemon model; updating the personal daemon with the predetermined set of heuristics in a store of personal information; receiving a notice of a subscribed event relating to the user; consulting the predetermined set of heuristics to identify one or more actions to be taken on behalf of the associated user in regard to receiving the subscribed event; and executing, without user input, the identified actions on the computing device on behalf of the associated user. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
