Abstract
Various systems and methods for a collaborative phone reputation system are described herein. A system for implementing a collaborative phone reputation system includes a compute device comprising: a call handling module to detect, at the compute device, an incoming call for a user of the compute device; a scoring module to determine a local probabilistic score that the incoming call is desirable for the user; and an execution module to perform an action at the compute device based on the local probabilistic score.
Claims24
A system for implementing a collaborative phone reputation system, the system comprising:
- a compute device comprising:
- a call handling module to detect, at the compute device, an incoming call for a user of the compute device;
- a scoring module to determine a local probabilistic score that the incoming call is desirable for the user;
- and
- an execution module to perform an action at the compute device based on the local probabilistic score,
- wherein to determine the local probabilistic score, the scoring module is to:
- determine that the incoming call is from a party not in a contact list of the user;
- and
- decrease the local probabilistic score based on the determination that the incoming call is from the party not in the contact list, and
- wherein the incoming call includes an originating phone number, and wherein the scoring module is to:
- obtain a reputation score of the originating phone number;
- and
- modify the local probabilistic score based on the reputation score.
A method of implementing a collaborative phone reputation system, the method comprising:
- detecting, at a compute device, an incoming call for a user of the compute device;
- determining a local probabilistic score that the incoming call is desirable for the user;
- and
- performing an action at the compute device based on the local probabilistic score;
- wherein determining the local probabilistic score comprises:
- determining that the incoming call is from a party not in a contact list of the user;
- and
- decreasing the local probabilistic score based on the determination that the incoming call is from the party not in the contact list;
- and
- wherein the incoming call includes an originating phone number, and wherein the method further comprises:
- obtaining a reputation score of the originating phone number;
- and
- modifying the local probabilistic score based on the reputation score.
At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium including instructions, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:
- detect, at a compute device, an incoming call for a user of the compute device;
- determine a local probabilistic score that the incoming call is desirable for the user;
- and
- perform an action at the compute device based on the local probabilistic score;
- wherein the instructions to determine the local probabilistic score include instructions to:
- determine that the incoming call is from a party not in a contact list of the user;
- and
- decrease the local probabilistic score based on the determination that the incoming call is from the party not in the contact list, and
- wherein the incoming call includes an originating phone number, and wherein the non-transitory machine readable medium include instructions to:
- obtain a reputation score of the originating phone number;
- and
- modify the local probabilistic score based on the reputation score.
A method of implementing a collaborative phone reputation system, the method comprising:
- detecting, at a compute device, an incoming call for a user of the compute device;
- determining a local probabilistic score that the incoming call is desirable for the user;
- and
- performing an action at the compute device based on the local probabilistic score,
- wherein the local probabilistic score is less than a threshold, and wherein performing the action at the compute device based on the local probabilistic score comprises sending the incoming call to voicemail to leave a voicemail message,
- wherein the method further comprises:
- analyzing the voicemail message;
- and
- modifying the local probabilistic score based on the analysis of the voicemail message.
