Migration of tags across entities in management of personal electronically encoded items
First Claim
1. A method for managing electronically encoded items on an electronic device, comprising:
- using a processor device operably coupled with a database, performing;
analyzing a user'"'"'s own personal electronically encoded items associated with a previously created category representing a first personal area of user interest identified by a user to discover similarities among the personal electronically encoded items from which a new category can be proposed;
providing a proposal to the user for creation of the new category with which to associate at least one of the personal electronically encoded items, the proposal based on the similarities determined from the analysis, and a probability model trained by the user'"'"'s interactions with the personal electronically encoded items;
creating the new category representing a second personal area of user interest, responsive to user acceptance of the proposal;
responsive to a user decision to cluster the previously created category with the new category as an individual entity within the new category, associating the previously created category with the new category by migrating tags from the new category to the associated previously created category and to the personal electronically encoded items of the associated previously created category, the migration of the tags based on child-parent relationships;
monitoring the user'"'"'s acceptance/rejection of the proposal; and
modifying criteria used in making future proposals, based on the user'"'"'s acceptance/rejection of proposals, wherein modifying the criteria comprises modifying the probability model.

Abstract
A method performed on an electronic device for migrating tags across entities. The migration of the tags is performed following an analysis of one or more personal electronically encoded items associated with a previously created perspective or album associated with the previously created perspective, responsive to a user decision the creation of a new perspective, a new album associated with one of the previously created perspectives, or a new perspective and a new album associated with the new perspective, responsive to a user decision to treat the previously created perspective or album as an individual entity, and association of the previously created perspective or album with the new perspective or new album. The tags are respectively migrated from the new perspective or the new album to the associated previously created perspective or the previously created album and to associated ones of the one or more personal electronically encoded items.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon for causing a computer comprising a processor and associated memory to carry out a method for managing electronically encoded items, the method comprising:
-
analyzing a user'"'"'s own personal electronically encoded items associated with a previously created category representing a first personal area of user interest identified by a user to discover similarities among the personal electronically encoded items from which a new category can be proposed; providing a proposal to the user for creation of a new category with which to associate at least one of the personal electronically encoded items, the proposal based on similarities determined from the analysis, and a probability model trained by the user'"'"'s interactions with the personal electronically encoded items; creating the new category representing a second personal area of user interest, responsive to user acceptance of the proposal; responsive to a user decision to cluster the previously created category with the new category as an individual entity within the new category, associating the previously created category with the new category by migrating tags from the new category to the associated previously created category and to the personal electronically encoded items of the associated previously created category, the migration of the tags based on child-parent relationships; monitoring the user'"'"'s acceptance/rejection of the proposal; and modifying criteria used in making future proposals, based on the user'"'"'s acceptance/rejection of proposals, wherein modifying the criteria comprises modifying the probability model. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A virtual assistant for managing electronically encoded items, comprising:
-
a processor operably coupled with a memory; an analysis module configured to analyze a user'"'"'s own personal electronically encoded items associated with a previously created category representing a first personal area of interest identified by a user to discover similarities among the personal electronically encoded items from which a new category can be proposed; a probability module configured to; develop and modify a probability model trained by the user'"'"'s interactions with the personal electronically encoded items; and modify criteria used in making future proposals, based on the user'"'"'s acceptance/rejection of proposals, wherein modifying the criteria comprises modifying the probability model; a proposal module configured to provide a proposal to the user for creation of a new category with which to associate at least one of the personal electronically encoded items, the proposal based on similarities determined from the analysis, and the probability model; a user control module configured to create the new category representing a second personal area of user interest, responsive to user acceptance of the proposal; an association and migration module configured to associate the previously created category with the new category by migrating tags from the new category to the associated previously created category and to the personal electronically encoded items of the associated previously created category, responsive to a user decision to cluster the previously created category with the new category as an individual entity within the new category, the migration of the tags based on child-parent relationships; and a system control module configured to monitor the user'"'"'s acceptance/rejection of the proposal. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
