Abstract
A computing system for organizing meetings, projects, and other collaborative engagements comprises a logic machine and a storage machine holding instructions. The instructions are executable by the logic machine to receive user input setting up a collaborative engagement, the collaborative engagement having an associated topic. One or more candidate participants are recommended for the collaborative engagement based on a candidate score for each of the one or more candidate participants. The candidate score for a particular candidate participant is computer generated and based on a topic relatedness score for the particular candidate participant and an aggregated meeting contribution score for the particular candidate participant.
Claims20
A computing system for organizing meetings, projects and other collaborative engagements, comprising:
- a logic machine;
- and
- a storage machine holding instructions executable by the logic machine to:
- receive user input setting up a collaborative engagement, the collaborative engagement having an associated topic;
- and
- recommend one or more candidate participants for the collaborative engagement based on a candidate score for each of the one or more candidate participants, the candidate score for a particular candidate participant being computer generated and based on:
- (1) a topic relatedness score for the particular candidate participant;
- and
- (2) an aggregated meeting contribution score for the particular candidate participant.
A method for organizing meetings, projects, and other collaborative engagements, the method comprising:
- receiving user input setting up a collaborative engagement, the collaborative engagement having an associated topic;
- for each of a plurality of candidate participants, generating a topic relatedness score;
- for each of the plurality of candidate participants, generating an aggregated meeting contribution score;
- and
- based on a processing of the topic relatedness score and the aggregated meeting contribution score, recommending one or more candidate participants of the plurality of candidate participants for the collaborative engagement.
A computing system for organizing meetings, projects and other collaborative engagements, comprising:
- a logic machine;
- and
- a storage machine holding instructions executable by the logic machine to:
- receive user input setting up a collaborative engagement;
- and
- recommend one or more candidate participants for the collaborative engagement based on a candidate score for each of the one or more candidate participants, the candidate score for a particular candidate participant being computer generated and calculated based on an aggregated meeting contribution score for the particular candidate participant;
- where the aggregated meeting contribution score for the particular candidate participant is calculated based on a processing of sensor data automatically collected during meetings in which the particular candidate participant has previously participated;
- and
- where the sensor data is received from one or more of a camera, a microphone, and a touch sensor.
