ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed generally to providing systems and methods for data analysis. More specifically, embodiments may provide system(s) and method(s) including dynamic user modeling techniques to capture the relational and dynamic patterns of information content and/or users' or entities' interests. Various embodiments may include system(s) and method(s) that are based on, for example, the past history of content semantics, temporal changes, and/or user community relationship. Various embodiments may include modeling and/or analysis of the dynamic nature of an item of interest's value to a user(s)/entity(ies) over time. The dynamic factors may be consider in any manner, such as, individually or combined, sequentially or simultaneously, etc. Further, some embodiments may include, for example, system(s) and method(s) relating to analyzing data to capture user/entity interests and/or characteristics, consider content semantics and evolutionary information, and/or using community relationships of users/entities to thereby analyze information and provide dynamic conclusion(s) (e.g., recommendation(s)).
