Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products for associating an image with a communication characteristic are disclosed. According to one method, a content characteristic of a first image is identified. A communication characteristic of a communication associated with the first image is identified. The content characteristic is associated with the communication characteristic. The content characteristic of the first image is identified in a second image. The communication characteristic is associated with the second image based on the association between the content characteristic and the communication characteristic.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- identifying a content characteristic of a first image;
- performing a communication action on the first image;
- identifying a communication characteristic in the communication action;
- associating, in a database stored on a memory device, the communication characteristic with a second image in response to identifying the content characteristic of the first image in the second image;
- and
- performing the communication action having the communication characteristic on the second image in response to associating the communication characteristic with the second image;
- wherein the communication characteristic comprises:
- a destination address configured to identify an address of a destination for the first image or the second image;
- a source address configured to identify an address of a source of the first image or the second image;
- a time of the communication action;
- a modality type of the communication action;
- an identification of a recipient of the communication action;
- or
- an identification of a source of the communication action.
11 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a processing device, cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
- identifying a content characteristic of a first image;
- performing a communication action on the first image;
- identifying a communication characteristic in the communication action;
- associating, in a database stored on a memory device, the communication characteristic with a second image in response to identifying the content characteristic of the first image in the second image;
- and
- performing the communication action having the communication characteristic on the second image in response to associating the communication characteristic with the second image;
- wherein the communication characteristic comprises:
- a destination address configured to identify an address of a destination for the first image or the second image;
- a source address configured to identify an address of a source of the first image or the second image;
- a time of the communication action;
- a modality type of the communication action;
- an identification of a recipient of the communication action;
- or
- an identification of a source of the communication action.
