Application: Fine-grained recommendation systems (Patent ID: US20240073465A1)

The patent filed by Box Inc. describes a recommendation system integrated with a content management system (CMS) that stores shared content objects and coordinates user interactions among CMS users. The system divides shared content objects into portions, observes user interactions over these portions, and analyzes them to infer user interests. Based on these inferences, fine-grained recommendations are generated and shared with other CMS users, referring to specific portions of content objects as well as the objects themselves. The recommendations can also be propagated to users related in some way, enhancing user engagement and content discovery within the CMS.

The method outlined in the patent involves interfacing the recommendation system with the CMS, identifying logical portions of shared files, recording user interactions over these portions, and using this data to create fine-grained recommendations. These recommendations are then communicated to other CMS users, potentially based on associations between users or common interests. The system also allows for actions to be initiated on behalf of users based on these recommendations, contributing to a more personalized and interactive user experience within the CMS. Overall, the patent highlights a sophisticated approach to content recommendation and user engagement within a CMS environment, leveraging observed interactions to enhance content discovery and user collaboration.
