US 8,543,516 B2 · Methods and systems for selecting and presenting content on a first system based on user preferences learned on a second system

Abstract

A method of selecting and presenting content on a first system based on user preferences learned on a second system is provided. The method includes receiving a user's input for identifying items of the second content system and, in response thereto, presenting a subset of items of the second content system and receiving the user's selection actions thereof. The method includes analyzing the selected items to learn the user's content preferences for the content of the second content system and determining a relationship between the content of the first and second content systems to determine preferences relevant to items of the first content system. The method includes, in response subsequent user input for items of the first content system, selecting and ordering a collection of items of the first content system based on the user's learned content preferences determined to be relevant to the items of the first content system.

Dependent claims

A user-interface method of selecting and presenting a collection of content items of a first content system in which the presentation is ordered at least in part based on content preferences of the user learned from user interactions with at least one second content system, the method comprising:

monitoring user interactions with the at least one second content system, the at least one second content system having a set of content items, each content item having at least one associated descriptive term to describe the content item;
analyzing the descriptive terms associated with content items with which the user interacted to learn the content preferences of the user for the content of the at least one second content system;
determining a subset of learned user content preferences that are relevant to the content items of the first content system;
and
subsequent to determining the subset of relevant learned user content preferences, presenting at least one content item of the first content system selected and ordered based on the subset of learned content preferences of the user determined to be relevant to the content items of the first content system.

A user-interface system for selecting and presenting a collection of content items of a first content system in which the presentation is ordered at least in part based on content preferences of the user learned from user interactions with at least one second content system, the user-interface system comprising:

at least one non-transitory computer-readable media in at least one of a user device or a remote server system in communication with the user device, the computer-readable media comprising instructions that when executed cause a computer system to:
monitor user interactions with the at least one second system, the at least one second content system having a set of content items, each content item having at least one associated descriptive terms to described the content items;
analyze the descriptive terms associated with content items with which the user interacted to learn the content preferences of the user for the content of the at least one second content system;
determine a subset of learned user content preferences that are relevant to the content items of the first content system;
and
present at least one content item of the first content system selected and ordered based on the subset of learned content preferences of the user determined to be relevant to the content items of the first content system.
