This invention describes a software system that helps users make decisions by organizing and presenting data. It takes what a user is looking for and their preferences, then uses a special formula (a 'distance function') to sort through a database and show relevant information. A human expert, called a 'reference-user,' then reviews the system's output and the original user's input, providing feedback that helps the system learn and improve its sorting formula over time. The claims specifically focus on this human feedback loop to refine the system's ability to cluster and present data.
Why it matters: Filed before the widespread adoption of advanced large language models, the human 'reference-user' feedback loop to adapt the 'distance function' could now be significantly augmented or even partially automated by AI, making the system more scalable and efficient to train.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
