Abstract
Abbreviations can be handled by a computer system that receives a message that specifies a recipient and a sender. A first text portion is identified from the message as being associated with an abbreviation. A sender and receiver profile are used to identify a set of one or more solutions for the first text portion. The solutions are scored based upon the online content exposure information in the profile of the recipient. Based upon the scoring, a particular solution of the one or more solutions is identified for use. The text body of the message is modified to include the particular solution, and the modified message is transmitted to the recipient.
Claims18
A computer implemented method for providing solutions relating to abbreviations, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a computer system, a message that specifies a recipient and sender and that includes a text body;
- identifying, by the computer system and from within the text body, a first text portion associated with an abbreviation;
- retrieving, by the computer system, a profile of the sender and a profile of the recipient;
- identifying, by the computer system and based on the profile of the sender, one or more solutions for the first text portion associated with the abbreviation;
- scoring, by the computer system and based upon online content exposure information in the profile of the recipient, the one or more solutions for the text portion;
- identifying, by the computer system and based upon the scoring, a particular solution of the one or more solutions for use;
- modifying the text body of the message to include the particular solution;
- and
- transmitting the message, as modified, to the recipient.
A computer system comprising:
- at least one processor circuit that includes:
- a monitoring engine configured to:
- receive a message that specifies a recipient and a sender and that includes a text body;
- identify, from within a text body, a first text portion associated with an abbreviation;
- and
- a processing engine configured to:
- retrieve a profile of the sender and a profile of the recipient;
- identify, based on the profile of the sender, one or more solutions for the first text portion associated with the abbreviation;
- score, based upon online content exposure information in the profile of the recipient, the one or more solutions for the first text portion;
- identify, based on the scoring, a particular solution of the one or more solutions for use;
- modify the text body of the message to include the particular solution;
- and
- transmit the message, as modified, to the recipient.
A computer program product for handling abbreviations, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal per se, the program instructions executable by a computer processing circuit to cause the circuit to perform a method comprising:
- receiving a message that specifies a recipient and sender and that includes a text body;
- identifying, from within the text body, a first text portion associated with an abbreviation;
- retrieving a profile of the sender and a profile of the recipient;
- identifying, based on the profile of the sender, one or more solutions for the first text portion associated with the abbreviation;
- scoring, based upon online content exposure information in the profile of the recipient, the one or more solutions for the text portion;
- identifying, based upon the scoring, a particular solution of the one or more solutions for use;
- modifying the text body of the message to include the particular solution;
- and
- transmitting the message, as modified, to the recipient.
