Title: Method and device for the reproduction of information
Inventor: SERRA MERCE
IPC: G06F15/18
Filed: 2005-04-14
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide an intelligent system for the reproduction of information, which adapts itself to the wishes and requirements of the user in a practically imperceptible manner that involves little or no additional complexity. To achieve this, the information to be reproduced is selected randomly from information or a plurality of information, based on an adaptive probability distribution. In addition, the adaptive probability distribution is adapted in accordance with the detected user behaviour for the reproduction of the selected information. The behaviour of the user is consequently used as a controlled variable for the adaptation of the adaptive probability distribution, the latter defining the probability among the reproducible information or information objects in which the reproducible information is provided that a specific piece of information, contained in an information object, will be selected to be included in the next piece of information to be reproduced in the subsequent random selection.
