System and method for generating information feed based on contextual data
First Claim
1. A method for generating an information feed based on contextual data, the method comprising:
- retrieving, by a database system, user contextual data associated with a user, the user contextual data identifying one or more entities associated with the user;
retrieving, from one or more data object sources by the database system, one or more data objects based on the retrieval of the user contextual data, wherein the only data objects retrieved are related to the retrieved user contextual data;
retrieving, by the database system, data object contextual data based on the retrieval of the one or more data objects, the data object contextual data being associated with the one or more data objects;
generating, by the database system, one or more feed items based, at least in part, on the one or more retrieved data objects and the retrieved data object contextual data;
generating, by the database system, a weight associated with each of the one or more feed items, the weight being generated based on the retrieved user contextual data and the retrieved data object contextual data; and
generating, by the database system, an information feed including at least some of the one or more feed items, the information feed arranging the at least some of the one or more feed items based on the generated weight associated with each of the at least some of the one or more feed items.

Abstract
Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for generating an information feed based on contextual data. User contextual data associated with a user is retrieved. The user contextual data identifies entities associated with the user. Data objects may be identified based on the retrieved user contextual data. Data object contextual data associated with the data objects may be retrieved. Feed items may be generated based on the data objects and the retrieved data object contextual data. A weight associated with each of the feed items may be generated. The weight may be generated based on the retrieved user contextual data and the retrieved data object contextual data. An information feed including at least some of the feed items may be generated. The information feed may arrange the at least some of the feed items based on the generated weight associated with each of the at least some of the feed items.

1. A method for generating an information feed based on contextual data, the method comprising:
-
retrieving, by a database system, user contextual data associated with a user, the user contextual data identifying one or more entities associated with the user; retrieving, from one or more data object sources by the database system, one or more data objects based on the retrieval of the user contextual data, wherein the only data objects retrieved are related to the retrieved user contextual data; retrieving, by the database system, data object contextual data based on the retrieval of the one or more data objects, the data object contextual data being associated with the one or more data objects; generating, by the database system, one or more feed items based, at least in part, on the one or more retrieved data objects and the retrieved data object contextual data; generating, by the database system, a weight associated with each of the one or more feed items, the weight being generated based on the retrieved user contextual data and the retrieved data object contextual data; and generating, by the database system, an information feed including at least some of the one or more feed items, the information feed arranging the at least some of the one or more feed items based on the generated weight associated with each of the at least some of the one or more feed items. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A non-transitory machine-readable medium carrying one or more sequences of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to carry out the steps of:
-
retrieving user contextual data associated with a user, the user contextual data identifying one or more entities associated with the user; retrieving, from one or more data object sources, one or more data objects based on the retrieval of the user contextual data, wherein the only data objects retrieved are related to the retrieved user contextual data; retrieving data object contextual data based on the retrieval of the one or more data objects, the data object contextual data being associated with the one or more data objects; generating one or more feed items based, at least in part, on the one or more data objects and the retrieved data object contextual data; generating a weight associated with each of the one or more feed items, the weight being generated based on the retrieved user contextual data and the retrieved data object contextual data; and generating an information feed including at least some of the one or more feed items, the information feed arranging the at least some of the one or more feed items based on the generated weight associated with each of the at least some of the one or more feed items. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system for generating an information feed based contextual data, the system comprising:
-
a processor; and one or more stored sequences of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to carry out the steps of; retrieving user contextual data associated with a user, the user contextual data identifying one or more entities associated with the user; retrieving, from one or more data object sources, one or more data objects based on the retrieval of the user contextual data, wherein the only data objects retrieved are related to the retrieved user contextual data; retrieving data object contextual data based on the retrieval of the one or more data objects, the data object contextual data being associated with the one or more data objects; generating one or more feed items based, at least in part, on the one or more data objects and the retrieved data object contextual data; generating a weight associated with each of the one or more feed items, the weight being generated based on the retrieved user contextual data and the retrieved data object contextual data; and generating an information feed including at least some of the one or more feed items, the information feed arranging the at least some of the one or more feed items based on the generated weight associated with each of the at least some of the one or more feed items. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
