The present disclosure relates to systems and techniques for data integration, analysis, and visualization. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems and techniques for integrating, analyzing, and visualizing data through the automatic generation of a chronology user interface.
Electronic record-keeping produces data sets with thousands or millions of records. The sheer quantity of information available for analysis may prevent meaningful conclusions from being drawn, or may prevent connections between events from even being discovered. Filtering data based on relationships, events, and common characteristics and visually presenting the data in concise and informative ways can help users to identify data relevant to a particular time, place, or sequence of events.
The systems, methods, and devices described herein each have several aspects, no single one of which is solely responsible for its desirable attributes. Without limiting the scope of this disclosure, several non-limiting features will now be discussed briefly.
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to automatic generation of interactive user interfaces for presentation of chronologies. A chronology user interface may be utilized to identify a set of relevant events. The events may be identified according to specified criteria, by comparing events and determining common attributes, or may be identified based on inputs, as described below. An interactive user interface may then be generated that displays the events, for example, as a timeline and a list. The timeline and list may be interactive. For example, an event on the timeline may be selected based on user input, and additional information or related events may be displayed. Modifiable attributes of events, such as annotations or associated keywords, may be modified via the user interface.
Chronology user interfaces may be used to compare timelines and to present and analyze various theories regarding a set of events and the relationship between them.
Additional embodiments of the disclosure are described below in reference to the appended claims, which may serve as an additional summary of the disclosure.

Reference will now be made in detail to example embodiments, the examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Whenever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to systems, methods, and computer-readable mediums for automatically generating and displaying a chronology. A chronology system obtains criteria for identifying a set of relevant events, and automatically generates for display an interactive user interface. The system processes input to designate key events, identify related events, and specify annotations or other modifiable attributes. Chronologies may be compared to each other, or to other data sets, to facilitate analysis and investigation.
According to some embodiments, the operations, techniques, and/or components described herein can be implemented by an electronic device, which can include one or more special-purpose computing devices. The special-purpose computing devices can be hard-wired to perform the operations, techniques, and/or components described herein, or can include digital electronic devices such as one or more application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) or field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) that are persistently programmed to perform the operations, techniques and/or components described herein, or can include one or more hardware processors programmed to perform such features of the present disclosure pursuant to program instructions in firmware, memory, other storage, or a combination. Such special-purpose computing devices can also combine custom hard-wired logic, ASICs, or FPGAs with custom programming to accomplish the technique and other features of the present disclosure. The special-purpose computing devices can be desktop computer systems, portable computer systems, handheld devices, networking devices, or any other device that incorporates hard-wired and/or program logic to implement the techniques and other features of the present disclosure.
The one or more special-purpose computing devices can be generally controlled and coordinated by operating system software, such as iOS, Android, Blackberry, Chrome OS, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server, Windows CE, Unix, Linux, SunOS, Solaris, VxWorks, or other compatible operating systems. In other embodiments, the computing device can be controlled by a proprietary operating system. Operating systems control and schedule computer processes for execution, perform memory management, provide file system, networking, I/O services, and provide a user interface functionality, such as a graphical user interface (“GUI”), among other things.
In various embodiments of the present disclosure, large amounts of data are automatically and dynamically calculated interactively in response to user inputs, and the calculated data is efficiently and compactly presented to a user by the system. Thus, in some embodiments, the user interfaces described herein are more efficient as compared to previous user interfaces in which data is not dynamically updated and compactly and efficiently presented to the user in response to interactive inputs.
Further, as described herein, the system may be configured and/or designed to generate user interface data useable for rendering the various interactive user interfaces described. The user interface data may be used by the system, and/or another computer system, device, and/or software program (for example, a browser program), to render the interactive user interfaces. The interactive user interfaces may be displayed on, for example, electronic displays (including, for example, touch-enabled displays).
Additionally, it has been noted that design of computer user interfaces “that are useable and easily learned by humans is a non-trivial problem for software developers.” (Dillon, A. (2003) User Interface Design. MacMillan Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science, Vol. 4, London: MacMillan, 453-458.) The various embodiments of interactive and dynamic user interfaces of the present disclosure are the result of significant research, development, improvement, iteration, and testing. This non-trivial development has resulted in the user interfaces described herein which may provide significant cognitive and ergonomic efficiencies and advantages over previous systems. The interactive and dynamic user interfaces include improved human-computer interactions that may provide reduced mental workloads, improved decision-making, reduced work stress, and/or the like, for a user. For example, user interaction with the interactive user interfaces described herein may provide an optimized display of time-varying report-related information and may enable a user to more quickly access, navigate, assess, and digest such information than previous systems.
Further, the interactive and dynamic user interfaces described herein are enabled by innovations in efficient interactions between the user interfaces and underlying systems and components. For example, disclosed herein are improved methods of receiving user inputs, translation and delivery of those inputs to various system components, automatic and dynamic execution of complex processes in response to the input delivery, automatic interaction among various components and processes of the system, and automatic and dynamic updating of the user interfaces. The interactions and presentation of data via the interactive user interfaces described herein may accordingly provide cognitive and ergonomic efficiencies and advantages over previous systems.
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide improvements to various technologies and technological fields. Additionally, various embodiments of the present disclosure are inextricably tied to computer technology. In particular, various embodiments rely on detection of user inputs via graphical user interfaces, calculation of updates to displayed electronic data based on those user inputs, automatic processing of related events, and presentation of the updates to displayed chronologies via interactive graphical user interfaces. Such features and others are intimately tied to, and enabled by, computer technology, and would not exist except for computer technology. For example, the interactions with displayed data described below in reference to various embodiments cannot reasonably be performed by humans alone, without the computer technology upon which they are implemented. Further, the implementation of the various embodiments of the present disclosure via computer technology enables many of the advantages described herein, including more efficient interaction with, and presentation of, various types of electronic image data.
In order to facilitate an understanding of the systems and methods discussed herein, a number of terms are defined below. The terms defined below, as well as other terms used herein, should be construed to include the provided definitions, the ordinary and customary meaning of the terms, and/or any other implied meaning for the respective terms. Thus, the definitions below do not limit the meaning of these terms, but only provide exemplary definitions.
Ontology: Stored information that provides a data model for storage of data in one or more databases. For example, the stored data may comprise definitions for object types and property types for data in a database, and how objects and properties may be related.

Link Set: Set of multiple links that are shared between two or more data objects.
Example Devices/Systems
By way of example,
Electronic device 100 also includes a main memory 106, such as a random access memory (RAM) or other dynamic storage device, coupled to bus 102 for storing information and instructions to be executed by processor 104. Main memory 106 also can be used for storing temporary variables or other intermediate information during execution of instructions to be executed by processor 104. Such instructions, when stored in non-transitory storage media accessible to one or more processors 104, render electronic device 100 into a special-purpose machine that is customized to perform the operations specified in the instructions.
Electronic device 100 further includes a read only memory (ROM) 108 or other static storage device coupled to bus 102 for storing static information and instructions for processor 104. A storage device 110, such as a magnetic disk, optical disk, or USB thumb drive (Flash drive), etc., is provided and coupled to bus 102 for storing information and instructions.
Electronic device 100 can be coupled via bus 102 to a display 112, such as a cathode ray tube (CRT), an LCD display, or a touchscreen, for displaying information to a computer user. An input device 114, including alphanumeric and other keys, is coupled to bus 102 for communicating information and command selections to processor 104. Another type of user input device is cursor control 116, such as a mouse, a trackball, or cursor direction keys for communicating direction information and command selections to processor 104 and for controlling cursor movement on display 112. The input device typically has two degrees of freedom in two axes, a first axis (for example, x) and a second axis (for example, y), that allows the device to specify positions in a plane. In some embodiments, the same direction information and command selections as cursor control may be implemented via receiving touches on a touch screen without a cursor.
Electronic device 100 can include a user interface module to implement a GUI that may be stored in a mass storage device as executable software codes that are executed by the one or more computing devices. This and other modules may include, by way of example, components, such as software components, object-oriented software components, class components and task components, processes, functions, attributes, procedures, subroutines, segments of program code, drivers, firmware, microcode, circuitry, data, databases, data structures, tables, arrays, and variables.
In general, the word “module,” as used herein, refers to logic embodied in hardware or firmware, or to a collection of software instructions, possibly having entry and exit points, written in a programming language, such as, for example, Java, Lua, C, and C++. A software module can be compiled and linked into an executable program, installed in a dynamic link library, or written in an interpreted programming language such as, for example, BASIC, Perl, Python, or Ruby. It will be appreciated that software modules can be callable from other modules or from themselves, and/or can be invoked in response to detected events or interrupts. Software modules configured for execution on computing devices can be provided on a computer readable medium, such as a compact disc, digital video disc, flash drive, magnetic disc, or any other tangible medium, or as a digital download (and can be originally stored in a compressed or installable format that requires installation, decompression, or decryption prior to execution). Such software code can be stored, partially or fully, on a memory device of the executing computing device, for execution by the computing device. Software instructions can be embedded in firmware, such as an EPROM. It will be further appreciated that hardware modules can be comprised of connected logic units, such as gates and flip-flops, and/or can be comprised of programmable units, such as programmable gate arrays or processors. The modules or computing device functionality described herein are preferably implemented as software modules, but can be represented in hardware or firmware. Generally, the modules described herein refer to logical modules that may be combined with other modules or divided into sub-modules despite their physical organization or storage.
Electronic device 100 can implement the techniques and other features described herein using customized hard-wired logic, one or more ASICs or FPGAs, firmware and/or program logic which in combination with the electronic device causes or programs electronic device 100 to be a special-purpose machine. According to some embodiments, the techniques and other features described herein are performed by electronic device 100 in response to one or more processors 104 executing one or more sequences of one or more instructions contained in main memory 106. Such instructions can be read into main memory 106 from another storage medium, such as storage device 150. Execution of the sequences of instructions contained in main memory 106 causes processor 104 to perform the process steps described herein. In alternative embodiments, hard-wired circuitry can be used in place of or in combination with software instructions.
The term “non-transitory media” as used herein refers to any media storing data and/or instructions that cause a machine to operate in a specific fashion. Such non-transitory media can comprise non-volatile media and/or volatile media. Non-volatile media includes, for example, optical or magnetic disks, such as storage device 110. Volatile media includes dynamic memory, such as main memory 106. Common forms of non-transitory media include, for example, a floppy disk, a flexible disk, hard disk, solid state drive, magnetic tape, or any other magnetic data storage medium, a CD-ROM, any other optical data storage medium, any physical medium with patterns of holes, a RAM, a PROM, and EPROM, a FLASH-EPROM, NVRAM, any other memory chip or cartridge, and networked versions of the same.
Non-transitory media is distinct from, but can be used in conjunction with, transmission media. Transmission media participates in transferring information between storage media. For example, transmission media includes coaxial cables, copper wire, and fiber optics, including the wires that comprise bus 102. Transmission media can also take the form of acoustic or light waves, such as those generated during radio wave and infrared data communications.
Various forms of media can be involved in carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions to processor 104 for execution. For example, the instructions can initially be carried on a magnetic disk or solid-state drive of a remote computer. The remote computer can load the instructions into its dynamic memory and send the instructions over a telephone line using a modem. A modem local to electronic device 100 can receive the data on the telephone line and use an infrared transmitter to convert the data to an infrared signal. An infrared detector can receive the data carried in the infrared signal and appropriate circuitry can place the data on bus 102. Bus 102 carries the data to main memory 106, from which processor 104 retrieves and executes the instructions. The instructions received by main memory 106 can optionally be stored on storage device 150 either before or after execution by processor 104.
Electronic device 100 also includes a communication interface 118 coupled to bus 102. Communication interface 118 provides a two-way data communication coupling to a network link 120 that is connected to a local network 122. For example, communication interface 118 can be an integrated services digital network (ISDN) card, cable modem, satellite modem, or a modem to provide a data communication connection to a corresponding type of telephone line. As another example, communication interface 118 can be a local area network (LAN) card to provide a data communication connection to a compatible LAN. Wireless links can also be implemented. In any such implementation, communication interface 118 sends and receives electrical, electromagnetic, or optical signals that carry digital data streams representing various types of information.
Network link 120 typically provides data communication through one or more networks to other data devices. For example, network link 120 can provide a connection through local network 122 to a host computer 124 or to data equipment operated by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) 126. ISP 126 in turn provides data communication services through the worldwide packet data communication network now commonly referred to as the “Internet” 128. Local network 122 and Internet 128 both use electrical, electromagnetic, or optical signals that carry digital data streams. The signals through the various networks and the signals on network link 120 and through communication interface 118, which carry the digital data to and from electronic device 100, are example forms of transmission media.
Electronic device 110 can send messages and receive data, including program code, through the network(s), network link 120 and communication interface 118. In the Internet example, a server 130 might transmit a requested code for an application program through Internet 128, ISP 126, local network 122, and communication interface 118. The received code can be executed by processor 104 as it is received, and/or stored in storage device 150 or other non-volatile storage for later execution. In some embodiments, server 130 can provide information for being displayed on a display, such as display 112.
Example Data Model
With reference now to
In one embodiment, a body of data is conceptually structured according to an object-centric data model represented by ontology 205. The conceptual data model is independent of any particular database used for durably storing one or more database(s) 209 based on the ontology 205. For example, each object of the conceptual data model may correspond to one or more rows in a relational database or an entry in Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) database, or any combination of one or more databases.
Different types of data objects may have different property types. For example, a “Person” data object might have an “Eye Color” property type and an “Event” data object might have a “Date” property type. Each property 203 as represented by data in the database system 210 may have a property type defined by the ontology 205 used by the database 205.
Objects may be instantiated in the database 209 in accordance with the corresponding object definition for the particular object in the ontology 205. For example, a specific monetary payment (e.g., an object of type “event”) of US$30.00 (e.g., a property of type “currency”) taking place on Mar. 27, 2009 (e.g., a property of type “date”) may be stored in the database 209 as an event object with associated currency and date properties as defined within the ontology 205.
The data objects defined in the ontology 205 may support property multiplicity. In particular, a data object 201 may be allowed to have more than one property 203 of the same property type. For example, a “Person” data object might have multiple “Address” properties or multiple “Name” properties.
Each link 202 represents a connection between two data objects 201. In one embodiment, the connection is either through a relationship, an event, or through matching properties. A relationship connection may be asymmetrical or symmetrical. For example, “Person” data object A may be connected to “Person” data object B by a “Child Of” relationship (where “Person” data object B has an asymmetric “Parent Of” relationship to “Person” data object A), a “Kin Of” symmetric relationship to “Person” data object C, and an asymmetric “Member Of” relationship to “Organization” data object X. The type of relationship between two data objects may vary depending on the types of the data objects. For example, “Person” data object A may have an “Appears In” relationship with “Document” data object Y or have a “Participate In” relationship with “Event” data object E. As an example of an event connection, two “Person” data objects may be connected by an “Airline Flight” data object representing a particular airline flight if they traveled together on that flight, or by a “Meeting” data object representing a particular meeting if they both attended that meeting. In one embodiment, when two data objects are connected by an event, they are also connected by relationships, in which each data object has a specific relationship to the event, such as, for example, an “Appears In” relationship.
As an example of a matching properties connection, two “Person” data objects representing a brother and a sister, may both have an “Address” property that indicates where they live. If the brother and the sister live in the same home, then their “Address” properties likely contain similar, if not identical property values. In one embodiment, a link between two data objects may be established based on similar or matching properties (e.g., property types and/or property values) of the data objects. These are just some examples of the types of connections that may be represented by a link and other types of connections may be represented; embodiments are not limited to any particular types of connections between data objects. For example, a document might contain references to two different objects. For example, a document may contain a reference to a payment (one object), and a person (a second object). A link between these two objects may represent a connection between these two entities through their co-occurrence within the same document.
Each data object 201 can have multiple links with another data object 201 to form a link set 204. For example, two “Person” data objects representing a husband and a wife could be linked through a “Spouse Of” relationship, a matching “Address” property, and one or more matching “Event” properties (e.g., a wedding). Each link 202 as represented by data in a database may have a link type defined by the database ontology used by the database.
In accordance with the discussion above, the example ontology 205 comprises stored information providing the data model of data stored in database 209, and the ontology is defined by one or more object types 310, one or more property types 316, and one or more link types 330. Based on information determined by the parser 302 or other mapping of source input information to object type, one or more data objects 201 may be instantiated in the database 209 based on respective determined object types 310, and each of the objects 201 has one or more properties 203 that are instantiated based on property types 316. Two data objects 201 may be connected by one or more links 202 that may be instantiated based on link types 330. The property types 316 each may comprise one or more data types 318, such as a string, number, etc. Property types 316 may be instantiated based on a base property type 320. For example, a base property type 320 may be “Locations” and a property type 316 may be “Home.”
In an embodiment, a user of the system uses an object type editor 324 to create and/or modify the object types 310 and define attributes of the object types. In an embodiment, a user of the system uses a property type editor 326 to create and/or modify the property types 316 and define attributes of the property types. In an embodiment, a user of the system uses link type editor 328 to create the link types 330. Alternatively, other programs, processes, or programmatic controls may be used to create link types and property types and define attributes, and using editors is not required.
In an embodiment, creating a property type 316 using the property type editor 326 involves defining at least one parser definition using a parser editor 322. A parser definition comprises metadata that informs parser 302 how to parse input data 300 to determine whether values in the input data can be assigned to the property type 316 that is associated with the parser definition. In an embodiment, each parser definition may comprise a regular expression parser 304A or a code module parser 304B. In other embodiments, other kinds of parser definitions may be provided using scripts or other programmatic elements. Once defined, both a regular expression parser 304A and a code module parser 304B can provide input to parser 302 to control parsing of input data 300.
Using the data types defined in the ontology, input data 300 may be parsed by the parser 302 determine which object type 310 should receive data from a record created from the input data, and which property types 316 should be assigned to data from individual field values in the input data. Based on the object-property mapping 301, the parser 302 selects one of the parser definitions that is associated with a property type in the input data. The parser parses an input data field using the selected parser definition, resulting in creating new or modified data 303. The new or modified data 303 is added to the database 209 according to ontology 205 by storing values of the new or modified data in a property of the specified property type. As a result, input data 300 having varying format or syntax can be created in database 209. The ontology 205 may be modified at any time using object type editor 324, property type editor 326, and link type editor 328, or under program control without human use of an editor. Parser editor 322 enables creating multiple parser definitions that can successfully parse input data 300 having varying format or syntax and determine which property types should be used to transform input data 300 into new or modified input data 303.
In an embodiment, the sources of input data 300 may themselves be stored or made available. For example, a user may provide a source document containing input data 300 that is processed by parser 302 as described above. The source document may be stored in the database 209 and associated with data objects 201 that are instantiated when parsing the source document. The source document may be made available when accessing data objects 201 associated with it, e.g., via the graphical user interface described below. In another embodiment, a user may provide a reference to a source document, such as a uniform resource locator (URL) or an Application Programming Interface (API) call that provides access to the source document. The reference may be utilized by the parser 302 to access and parse the source document, and may be associated with data objects 201 that are instantiated when parsing the source document. In still another embodiment, an API may be provided that allows sources of input data 300 to provide their data in a specified format.
The properties, objects, and links (e.g. relationships) between the objects can be visualized using a graphical user interface (GUI). For example,
For example, in
Relationships between data objects may be stored as links, or in some embodiments, as properties, where a relationship may be detected between the properties. In some cases, as stated above, the links may be directional. For example, a payment link may have a direction associated with the payment, where one person object is a receiver of a payment, and another person object is the payer of payment.
In addition to visually showing relationships between the data objects, the user interface may allow various other manipulations. For example, the objects within database 108 may be searched using a search interface 450 (e.g., text string matching of object properties), inspected (e.g., properties and associated data viewed), filtered (e.g., narrowing the universe of objects into sets and subsets by properties or relationships), and statistically aggregated (e.g., numerically summarized based on summarization criteria), among other operations and visualizations. As a further example, the objects within database 108 may be associated with source documents, as described above, and the source documents may be inspected or exported when viewing associated objects. In some embodiments, selecting a source document for inspection may cause display of a separate user interface (e.g., in a separate window, document viewer, browser, or other application).

Event icons 506-520 correspond to a set of events (e.g., representing data objects of the type “event” and/or representing relationships among data objects, as described above) that are relevant to an investigation or analysis. In some embodiments, some or all of the relevant events may be obtained or determined based on criteria, such as events associated with a particular source, activity, participant, or other attribute. In other embodiments, the events displayed in the timeline interface 502 may be identified via inputs received from a touchscreen or input device. For example, input indicating that button 522 has been tapped or clicked may cause display of a separate interface for adding an event to the timeline. In further embodiments, timeline interface 502 or list interface 552 may be responsive to drag-and-drop input, such that dragging and dropping an event onto the timeline interface 502 or list interface 552 causes the event to be added to the set of relevant events and an additional event icon to be added to the timeline 504. For example, in some embodiments data objects may be dragged from one user interface (such as a user interface similar to the user interface of
In the illustrated example, the events for which icons 506-520 are displayed relate to insider trading. Such events may be identified, for example, based on keyword criteria (e.g., a common company or stock symbol) or participant criteria (e.g., participants WC and DD) within a relevant timeframe. Although insider trading events are depicted for purposes of example, the present disclosure is not limited to a particular type of investigation or analysis. As non-limiting examples, a chronology user interface may be used to analyze and present events related to law enforcement (criminal investigations, prosecutions, defenses, anti-money laundering investigations, investigations into events leading up to use of a weapon (e.g., by a law enforcement officer), etc.), cybersecurity, finance (stock portfolios, loans, etc.), health issues (treatment plans, clinical drug trials, disease vectors, etc.), public safety, product marketing, anti-bribery workflows, cyber fraud detection, cyber breach detection, triage and analysis, investigations into consumer churn and retention (e.g., macro analysis (e.g., all customers), micro analysis (e.g., customer specific), analysis of events/trends that lead to a customer (or group) adopting or leaving products, buying more products, etc.), and/or other events that may be presented and analyzed chronologically.
Events 506-520 may correspond to various event categories or types, and may be displayed in the timeline interface 502 accordingly. As a non-limiting example, event 506 may correspond to transmission or receipt of an email message, and may accordingly be presented in the timeline interface 502 with a “mail” symbol or other designation. As further non-limiting examples, events 512, 514, and 520 may correspond to financial transactions (e.g., stock trades) occurring at the indicated times, events 508 and 512 may correspond to telephone calls, and event 516 may correspond to a document (e.g., an earnings report or press release) that was issued on the date and time indicated by the line connecting event 516 to the timeline 504. In various embodiments, some or all of events 506-520 may be labeled according to an event category, participant, source, keyword, annotation, or other attribute. In some embodiments, event labels or icons may be selected in response to input. For example, input may be received indicating that event participants should be displayed as icons. Although a particular embodiment is illustrated in
In
In some embodiments, the appearance or format of event icons 506-520 may be modified or customized. For example, events may be color-coded according to event type, participants, source, or other criteria. Event icons 506-520 may further be customized to display different icon shapes or symbols, or to display annotations or other attributes associated with some or all of the events.
The illustrated user interface 500a further includes a list interface 552. The list interface 552 displays the set of relevant events 506-520 in a list format. In the depicted embodiment, non-limiting examples of various event attributes are displayed in columns 554-564. For example, column 554 contains an event type or category, such as an email message, phone call, or stock trade. The event categories displayed in column 554 may correspond to event icons displayed in the timeline interface 502. As a further example, column 556 contains a date or date range associated with the event, which may correspond to the position of events in the timeline interface 502. The timeline interface 502 may not display corresponding information for all columns in the list interface 552. In
The list interface 552 further includes event rows 566-574, which correspond to event icons 506-514 in the timeline interface 502. The list interface 552 may be scrollable, and input to the list interface 552 may cause, for example, rows corresponding to event icons 516-520 to scroll into view. In some embodiments, the list interface 552 may enable input or modification of event attributes that are modifiable, such as keywords, notes, or other attributes associated with the event. Other attributes, such as the date and participants in a phone call or other events, may not be modifiable.

Selected row 570′ further includes a list of related events 576. As described in more detail below, the chronology system may identify one or more events related to the selected event. Events may be identified as being related to the selected event, for example, by having common attributes. For example, a selected event may be a telephone call between parties X and Y at a particular date and time, and the related events may be other telephone calls between X and Y at other times. In
In some embodiments, interface 500b may include controls for modifying or customizing the appearance of a selected event icon, as described above. For example, the timeline interface 502 may display controls for annotating the selected event, and may display an annotation for the selected event icon 510′. As a further example, the list interface 552 may display controls for editing the modifiable attributes of a selected event.
Interface 500c includes a second timeline interface 502′, which displays a second set of event icons 532, 514′, and 536 relative to the timeline 504 presented by timeline interface 502. For example, in the embodiment illustrated in
Event icons 532, 514′, and 536 correspond to a second set of events. The second set of events may be relevant to the same investigation or analysis as the first set of events, or in some embodiments may represent an alternative theory of the case. In the embodiment illustrated in
In some embodiments, interface 500c includes a second list interface 552′, which includes columns 554′-560′ and event rows 582, 574′, and 586. Event rows 582, 574′ and 586 correspond to the events associated with icons 532, 514′, and 516 respectively, and row 574′ in the second list interface 552′ corresponds to row 574 in the first list interface 552. In other embodiments, a single list interface 552 may include events from both timelines 502 and 502′. Illustratively, a single list interface 552 may display the events of the first timeline 502 distinctly from the events of the second timeline 502′, using elements such as colors, icons, fonts, and the like to visually distinguish between the event sets.
Illustratively, interface 500c may be utilized to compare timelines created by different analysts, to assess whether events from a first and second timeline should be combined into a single timeline, to compare two potential timelines of events (e.g., compare two different theories of a case or present counter arguments to a theory), and/or the like. In some embodiments, interface 500c may include controls or other user interface elements to facilitate merging two or more timelines, and may further assign attributes to timeline events based on, for example, the original source or creator of the timeline. For example, interface 500c may generate a merged timeline that highlights each event according to whether the event was originally included in the first timeline, the second timeline, or both timelines.

Interface 500d includes an historical interface 582 for displaying and interacting with historical data—that is, data associated with times displayed on the timeline 504. In the illustrated embodiment, the historical interface 582 displays historical stock prices 584 and trading volumes 586 for Acme, Inc. stock, which is the stock that was traded in events 510, 514, and 520. As other, non-limiting examples, the historical interface 582 may display data such as health statistics, account balances, sales volumes, or other data that varies over time and in relation to the set of relevant events.
In some embodiments, selection of an event in the timeline interface 502 or list interface 552 may cause an update to the historical interface 582. For example, selecting event icon 516 may highlight trading volumes or stock prices on the associated date. Selection of a particular date in the historical interface 582 may further cause display of an event selection interface, as described above with reference to
Interface 500e includes participant timelines 524 and 526 within its timeline interface 502. Participant timeline 524 includes event icons 506, 508, 510, 512, all of which correspond to events that include “WC” as a participant. Participant timeline 526 includes event icons 506, 508, 512, and 514, all of which correspond to events that include “DD” as a participant. Events having multiple participants, such as the telephone call corresponding to event icon 508, display a connection between the participants. The timeline 504 further includes event 516, which does not have any participants and accordingly is not included on either of the participant timelines 524 and 526.
Interface 500e may display more or fewer participant timelines within the scope of the present disclosure. For example, interface 500e may display three participant timelines and include events with three participants, or may display a single participant timeline in response to, e.g., input selecting the participant. In some embodiments, participants may be added or removed from the timeline interface 502 based on received inputs. As a non-limiting example, the interface 500e may display a single participant timeline for X, which includes an email exchange between X, Y and Z. Selecting the email event may thus cause generation and/or display of participant timelines for Y and Z.
Chronology user interfaces 500a-f are non-limiting examples, and the present disclosure encompasses further variations that are not illustrated in the drawings. As an example, a timeline interface 502 may display a different set of events than the associated list interface 552, or one interface may display a subset of the events displayed in the other interface. As a further example, events corresponding to a date or time range may be displayed as blocks or ranges within the timeline interface. Further, various features of the various user interfaces 500a-f described above may be combined in various ways.
In various embodiments, one or more of the user interfaces 500a-f described above may include various additional features.
In some embodiments, events (as displayed in the example user interfaces described above) may be stored in an optimized database and/or table, which may be separate from the database 209, for example. For example, when a data object is added to a timeline/list of a chronology user interface, certain properties/attributes associated with that data object may be extracted and stored in the optimized database in association with the event that is added to the user interface. Advantageously, some properties associated with a data object may not be relevant to the display of the event in a chronology user interface, and thus may not be stored in the optimized database. Thus, when the chronology user interface is generated based on events stored in the optimized database, fewer properties of the events may need to be read (speeding up accessing and processing time), and the stored information may be less than with the full data objects were stored.
In some implementations, such events stored in an optimized database may include links back to the respective data objects. Thus, via a chronology user interface (such as one or more of the user interfaces 500a-f), the user may select to view the data object associated with the event, and the system may link to the data object by automatically executing an application associated with the data object (e.g., generate a user interface similar to the user interface of
In some implementations, multiple users may collaborate with one another via chronology user interfaces. For example, two users, via two different computing devices, may view a same chronology, and/or events associated with a same chronology. Either user may, for example, reorder or edit events and/or properties associated with events (e.g., a user may add comments or keywords to, or otherwise annotate, an event). In response the system may automatically propagate those changes to the user interface of the other user, such that the events viewed by either collaborating user may be updated automatically.
In some implementations, access to a chronology may be controlled. For example, a password may be required to access the chronology, or an access control list (ACL) may be used. An ACL is a set of one or more permissions that govern use (e.g., read access, write access, etc.) of the associated chronologies, or that govern use of individual rows or events within a chronology. For example, a permission may specify a set of one or more trustees (e.g., a user) and one or more use rights (e.g., read access, write access, etc.) of those trustees with respect to the associated chronology. As another example, a permission may specify a minimum security classification level (e.g., unclassified, secret, top secret, or a particular job title or position) such that only users that possess the minimum security classification level can use (e.g., read, write, etc.) rows or events in a chronology that involve a particular subject or that originate from a particular source.
In some implementations, the user interfaces may include one or more search user interface elements or search user interfaces by which the user may search or filter events (e.g., using keywords). For example, the user may specify certain terms, and any event that is associated with that term (e.g., includes the term in an annotation or other property) may be displayed to the user in a results list, or the user interface may be updated to only display events (in the list and/or timeline) that are associated with that term.
In some implementations, events displayed in a user interface may be linked to an original source (e.g., a source of the information associated with the event, a data object associated with the event, etc.) such that any changes to that original source may be automatically updated and reflected in the user interface. For example, new information may become available indicating a change to a time or date associated with an event. Accordingly, the system may determine that this change has been made, and automatically update the user interface to indicate the change. For example, the event may move on the timeline, or the list may be reordered. The user may be notified of the change via an indication in the user interface, and/or an alert may be sent to the user, as described below.

Example Methods/Routines
With reference now to
At block 604, criteria may be obtained for identifying a set of relevant events within the larger set of events. For example, the criteria may specify financial transactions involving certain participants, emails that include certain keywords, events on or about a particular date, or various other criteria. In some embodiments, the criteria may be inputs indicating selection of events. For example, the criteria may be a series of drag-and-drop inputs or other inputs indicating that an event should be added to the timeline. At block 606, a set of relevant events may be identified based on the criteria obtained at block 604.
At block 608, a timeline interface, such as the timeline interface 502 as described above, may be generated for display. Illustratively, the set of relevant events obtained at block 606 may be organized into a timeline according to their date and time attributes, and may be displayed as icons or symbols on the timeline as described above. At block 610 a list interface, such as the list interface 552, may be generated for display. One skilled in the art will appreciate that blocks 608 and 610 may be carried out independently of each other, and that the blocks may be carried out in parallel or in any order. At block 612, the timeline and list interfaces may be displayed.
In some embodiments, blocks 604-612 may be carried out repeatedly to generate updated timeline interfaces and list interfaces, or to generate additional timeline interfaces and list interfaces for display, as described above with reference to
With reference now to
At block 704, a set of related events may be determined. Illustratively, the set of related events may be determined based on further input, such as a request to display other telephone calls made within a specified timeframe of a selected telephone call event. In some embodiments, the set of related events may be determined automatically. For example, the set of relevant events may be analyzed to determine the relevance of a particular selected event, based on attributes or other criteria that the relevant events have in common. Events may be identified as potentially related if they are tagged with a certain keyword (such as “Acme, Inc.” in the examples above), involve certain participants, or occur relatively closely in time to events in the set of relevant events. The analysis may further consider key events in the timeline as indications of greater relevance. For example, stock trades that occur just before an earnings report may be identified as potentially related to the set of relevant events. In some embodiments, machine learning may be used to refine the automatic identification of related events based on previous manual selections of related events. For example, weighting factors may be applied to bias identification of related events in favor of events similar to those selected for inclusion in the timeline and list interfaces. In some embodiments, the identified events may be assigned a score or grade indicating a predicted likelihood of being related to the set of relevant events.
At block 706, a related event interface may be generated for display, as described above with reference to
Thereafter, at decision block 710, a determination may be made that one or more of the related events should be added to the set of relevant events. Illustratively, the determination may be made based on input selecting a related event for addition to the timeline, on scores or grades assigned to the related events, or based on other criteria. If the determination is that no related events should be added to the set, the routine 700 ends. Otherwise, the routine 700 branches to block 712, where an updated timeline interface may be generated that includes the newly added relevant event. At block 714, which may precede, follow, or be carried out in parallel with block 712, a list interface may be generated that includes the new relevant event. At block 716, the updated interfaces may be displayed, and thereafter the routine ends. In some embodiments, blocks 704-716 may be carried out iteratively to update the list of related events after a modification to the set of relevant events.
In some embodiments, an alert and/or notification may be automatically generated when data objects are updated, in response to changes to one or more events, in response to various changes in user interfaces, and/or the like, and the alert may be transmitted to the device operated by the entity associated with the alert and/or notification. The alert and/or notification can be transmitted at the time that the alert and/or notification is generated or at some determined time after generation of the alert and/or notification. When received by the device, the alert and/or notification can cause the device to display the alert and/or notification via the activation of an application on the device (e.g., a browser, a mobile application, etc.). For example, receipt of the alert and/or notification may automatically activate an application on the device, such as a messaging application (e.g., SMS or MMS messaging application), a standalone application (e.g., a chronology application), or a browser, for example, and display information included in the alert and/or notification. If the device is offline when the alert and/or notification is transmitted, the application may be automatically activated when the device is online such that the alert and/or notification is displayed. As another example, receipt of the alert and/or notification may cause a browser to open and be redirected to a login page generated by the chronology system so that the entity can log in to the chronology system and view the alert and/or notification. Alternatively, the alert and/or notification may include a URL of a webpage (or other online information) associated with the alert and/or notification, such that when the device (e.g., a mobile device) receives the alert, a browser (or other application) is automatically activated and the URL included in the alert and/or notification is accessed via the Internet. Alerts may include, for example, notifications to a user regarding a change to an event (e.g., by another user that is collaborating with the user), notifications to a user regarding new data objects that represent events related to events in a chronology, and/or the like.
Embodiments of the present disclosure have been described herein with reference to numerous specific details that can vary from implementation to implementation. Certain adaptations and modifications of the described embodiments can be made. Other embodiments can be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the embodiments disclosed herein. It is intended that the specification and examples be considered as example only, with a true scope and spirit of the present disclosure being indicated by the following claims. It is also intended that the sequence of steps shown in figures are only for illustrative purposes and are not intended to be limited to any particular sequence of steps. As such, it is appreciated that these steps can be performed in a different order while implementing the example methods or processes disclosed herein. Further, the inventions illustratively disclosed herein suitably may be practiced in the absence of any element or aspect which is not specifically disclosed herein, such as without.
Depending on the embodiment, certain acts, events, or functions of any of the methods described herein can be performed in a different sequence, can be added, merged, or left out altogether (e.g., not all described acts or events are necessary for the practice of the algorithm). Moreover, in certain embodiments, acts or events can be performed concurrently, e.g., through multi-threaded processing, interrupt processing, or multiple processors or processor cores or on other parallel architectures, rather than sequentially.
The various illustrative logical blocks, modules and method elements described in connection with the embodiments disclosed herein can be implemented as electronic hardware, computer software or combinations of both. To clearly illustrate this interchangeability of hardware and software, various illustrative components, blocks, modules and steps have been described above generally in terms of their functionality. Whether such functionality is implemented as hardware or software depends upon the particular application and design constraints imposed on the overall system. The described functionality can be implemented in varying ways for each particular application, but such implementation decisions should not be interpreted as causing a departure from the scope of the disclosure.
The various illustrative logical blocks and modules described in connection with the embodiments disclosed herein can be implemented or performed by a machine, such as a general purpose processor, a digital signal processor (DSP), an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field programmable gate array (FPGA) or other programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components, or any combination thereof designed to perform the functions described herein. A general purpose processor can be a microprocessor, but in the alternative, the processor can be a controller, microcontroller, or state machine, combinations of the same, or the like. A processor can also be implemented as a combination of computing devices, e.g., a combination of a DSP and a microprocessor, a plurality of microprocessors, one or more microprocessors in conjunction with a DSP core, or any other such configuration.
The elements of a method, process, or algorithm described in connection with the embodiments disclosed herein can be embodied directly in hardware, in a software module executed by a processor, or in a combination of the two. A software module can reside in RAM memory, flash memory, ROM memory, EPROM memory, EEPROM memory, registers, hard disk, a removable disk, a CD-ROM or any other form of computer-readable storage medium known in the art. A storage medium can be coupled to the processor such that the processor can read information from, and write information to, the storage medium. In the alternative, the storage medium can be integral to the processor. The processor and the storage medium can reside in an ASIC. The ASIC can reside in a user terminal. In the alternative, the processor and the storage medium can reside as discrete components in a user terminal.
Conditional language used herein, such as, among others, “can,” “might,” “may,” “e.g.” and the like, unless specifically stated otherwise, or otherwise understood within the context as used, is generally intended to convey that certain embodiments include, while other embodiments do not include, certain features, elements and/or states. Thus, such conditional language is not generally intended to imply that features, elements and/or states are in any way required for one or more embodiments or that one or more embodiments necessarily include logic for deciding, with or without author input or prompting, whether these features, elements and/or states are included or are to be performed in any particular embodiment. The terms “comprising,” “including,” “having,” “involving” and the like are synonymous and are used inclusively, in an open-ended fashion, and do not exclude additional elements, features, acts, operations and so forth. For example, a general purpose computer comprising one or more processors should not be interpreted as excluding other computer components, and may possibly include such components as memory, input/output devices, and/or network interfaces, among others. Also, the term “or” is used in its inclusive sense (and not in its exclusive sense) so that when used, for example, to connect a list of elements, the term “or” means one, some or all of the elements in the list.
Disjunctive language such as the phrase “at least one of X, Y or Z,” unless specifically stated otherwise, is otherwise understood with the context as used in general to present that an item, term, etc., may be either X, Y or Z, or any combination thereof (e.g., X, Y and/or Z). Thus, such disjunctive language is not generally intended to, and should not, imply that certain embodiments require at least one of X, at least one of Y or at least one of Z to each be present.
Unless otherwise explicitly stated, articles such as “a” or “an” should generally be interpreted to include one or more described items. Accordingly, phrases such as “a device configured to” are intended to include one or more recited devices. Such one or more recited devices can also be collectively configured to carry out the stated recitations. For example, “a processor configured to carry out recitations A, B and C” can include a first processor configured to carry out recitation A working in conjunction with a second processor configured to carry out recitations B and C.
The term “comprising” as used herein should be given an inclusive rather than exclusive interpretation. For example, a general purpose computer comprising one or more processors should not be interpreted as excluding other computer components, and may possibly include such components as memory, input/output devices, and/or network interfaces, among others.
While the above detailed description has shown, described, and pointed out novel features as applied to various embodiments, it will be understood that various omissions, substitutions, and changes in the form and details of the devices or algorithms illustrated can be made without departing from the spirit of the disclosure. As will be recognized, certain embodiments described herein can be embodied within a form that does not provide all of the features and benefits set forth herein, as some features can be used or practiced separately from others. All changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are to be embraced within their scope.
This application is a non-provisional of and claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/272,526, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
