Abstract

In various example embodiments, a system and method for generating and routing notifications of content extracted from emails are presented. A member's interest in a specific email among a set of emails are determined based on a relevance score. Content from the specific email are extracted, the content being identified as primary information and secondary information. A notification is generated comprising of the vital content extracted from the specific email. Presentation of the primary information is caused, the primary information being associated with the notification according to a ranked order, the ranked order being based on the relevance score. In response to a member action, presentation of the secondary information is caused, the secondary information being associated with the notification.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A system comprising:
a processor, and a memory including instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: determine a member's interest in a specific email among a set of emails based on a relevance score; extract content from the specific email, the content being identified as primary information and secondary information; generate a notification comprising of the vital content extracted from the specific email; cause presentation, at a user interface, of the primary information associated with the notification according to a ranked order, the ranked order being based on the relevance score; and in response to a member action, cause presentation of the secondary information associated with the notification.

2 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
calculate the relevance score based on a vector space model comparison between the specific email and the member profile.

3 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
calculate the relevance score based on a vector space model comparison between the specific email and past activities of the member.

4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein:
the past activities of the member include emails that the user has indicated interest in.

5 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
in response to a second member action, route the member directly to the email associated with the notification within the member email inbox.

6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the extracting content being performed on the specific email where the corresponding relevance score transgresses a threshold.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the specific email comprise of all predetermined primary information that are required for the generated notification.

8 . The method comprising:
using one or more computer processors: determining a member's interest in a specific email among a set of emails based on a relevance score; extracting content from the specific email, the content being identified as primary information and secondary information; generating a notification comprising of the content extracted from the specific email; causing presentation, at a user interface, of the primary information associated with the notification according to a ranked order, the ranked order being based on the relevance score; and in response to a member action, causing presentation of the secondary information associated with the notification.

9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
calculating the relevance score based on a vector space model comparison between the specific email and the member profile.

10 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
calculating the relevance score based on a vector space model comparison between the specific email and past activities of the member.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein:
the past activities of the member include emails that the user has indicated interest in.

12 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
in response to a second member action, routing the member directly to the email associated with the notification within the member email inbox.

13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein:
the extracting content being performed on the specific email where the corresponding relevance score transgresses a threshold.

14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein:
the specific email comprise of all predetermined primary information that are required for the generated notification.

15 . A machine-readable medium not having any transitory signals and storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
determining a member's interest in a specific email among a set of emails based on a relevance score; extracting content from the specific email, the content being identified as primary information and secondary information; generating a notification comprising of the content extracted from the specific email; causing presentation, at a user interface, of the primary information associated with the notification according to a ranked order, the ranked order being based on the relevance score; and in response to a member action, causing presentation of the secondary information associated with the notification.

16 . The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
calculating the relevance score based on a vector space model comparison between the specific email and the member profile.

17 . The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
calculating the relevance score based on a vector space model comparison between the specific email and past activities of the member.

18 . The machine-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein:
the past activities of the member include emails that the user has indicated interest in.

19 . The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
in response to a second member action, routing the member directly to the email associated with the notification within the member email inbox.

20 . The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
the extracting content being performed on the specific email where the corresponding relevance score transgresses a threshold.
