Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In one embodiment, a web service engine server 104 may predict a successive action by a user based on an entity reference 302 . The web service engine server 104 identifies an entity reference 302 in a data transmission caused by a user. The web service engine server 104 determines from the data transmission a user intention towards the entity reference 302 using an intention model based on a transmission log. The web service engine server 104 predicts a related successive web action option 522 for the entity reference 302 based on the user intention.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A machine-implemented method, comprising: observing, by a computer system, directly in a transmission log, a context word distribution and a click through host distribution, in a network; identifying, by the computer system, an entity reference in a data transmission transmitted by a user via the network; determining, by the computer system, from the data transmission a user intention towards the entity reference using an intention model having a context multinomi…
