Systems for Learning User Preferences and Generating Recommendations to make Settings at Connected Vehicles and Interfacing with Cloud Systems

Abstract

A cloud system that includes one or more servers for communicating with vehicles and processing information received from a vehicle and processing information sent to the vehicle is provided. The system enables establishing a communication link between a computing device associated with the vehicle and a server of the cloud system. The communication link is over a wireless network, and the communication link is established in association with a user account that is managed by the cloud system. The communication link is configured to be established for one or more sessions. Then, receiving, at the server, a plurality of actions associated with inputs made at the vehicle while the vehicle is associated with the user account, the plurality of actions being received during the one or more sessions. The server updates data associated with the user account to identify the plurality of actions at the vehicle and then generates a recommendation to apply a setting at the vehicle. One or more of the plurality of actions for the vehicle made during the one or more sessions are analyzed to identify a pattern that is indicative of a preference for a setting by a user of the vehicle that used the vehicle via the user account. Generating the recommendation to apply the setting occurs upon reaching or exceeding a predefined threshold. The system sends to the user account the recommendation to apply the setting for the vehicle. The computing device enables access to the user account to view and accept the recommendation. The computing device associated with the vehicle enables acceptance of the recommendation, such that acceptance of the recommendations causes an instruction to the vehicle to apply the setting.
