This invention describes a computer system that combines different ways of suggesting things to users. It uses a set of rules to decide which specific recommendation method to use at any given time. These rules can trigger other, more complex recommendation engines, like those based on data analysis or machine learning, and feed them the necessary information.
Why it matters: Filed before modern AI and machine learning models became the dominant force in recommendation systems. The framework's ability to integrate diverse 'non-rule-based systems' is now highly relevant for orchestrating today's sophisticated AI-driven recommenders.
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.
