Abstract

Provided are systems, methods, and computer-readable medium for operating a content delivery system. In various examples, the content delivery system can transmit a series of queries to a computing device for display in an application executing on the computing device. The content delivery service can receive a first set of responses, and determine from these response an additional series of queries. The additional series of queries can also be transmitted to the computing device. The content delivery service can receive a second set of responses for the additional series of queries. The content delivery service can further use the responses to determine a presentation for a program of content, the presentation including graphics, text, and audio. The content delivery service can transmit the present and the program of content to the computing device, where the computing device can render the presentation to modify an appearance of the program of content.

Core Innovation

A content-delivery system executes a content delivery service on a computing system to read a series of queries from a storage device associated with the content delivery service. The content delivery service transmits the series of queries to a computing device that displays the series of queries in an application, with each query displayed with a prompt for a response, then receives a first set of responses and computes a set of scores based on the first set of responses to the first set of queries.

Based on the set of scores, the content delivery service determines a set of drivers, where each driver comprises a factor that underlies a psychological issue and is addressable by cognitive behavioral therapy. Using the set of drivers, the content delivery service determines a program of content including a series of content sessions related to cognitive behavioral therapy, where each content session comprises at least one of an audio segment, a video segment, an interactive multimedia module, or a question.

The content delivery service determines, using the first set of responses, a first content session of the program of content that will be presented at the computing device. After receiving a second set of responses to a second set of queries, the content delivery service determines a customization for the first content session using at least one of the first set of responses or the second set of responses, and determines an order and a schedule for presentation of the series of content sessions based on the set of scores and the set of drivers associated with the series of content sessions.

The service determines a situational context indicating user contextual information based on location data, health data and sensor data derived from the computing device, determines a presentation for the program of content based on the situational context, and transmits the presentation and the customization to the computing device for rendering in a context layer that modifies an appearance of the first content session.

Claims Coverage

The document includes one independent claim with multiple dependent refinements. The independent claim covers response-driven content delivery in which computed scores determine psychological-issue drivers addressable by cognitive behavioral therapy, and those drivers are used to select, customize, order, and schedule CBT-related content sessions presented through an application context layer that modifies appearance using situational context.

Query-driven content delivery with response prompts

Reading a series of queries, transmitting the series of queries for display with a prompt for a response, receiving a first set of responses, and computing a set of scores based on the first set of responses to the first set of queries.

Driver determination tied to psychological issues addressable by CBT

Determining a set of drivers based on the set of scores, where each driver comprises a factor that underlies a psychological issue and is addressable by cognitive behavioral therapy.

CBT program of content sessions derived from drivers

Determining, using the set of drivers, a program of content comprising a series of content sessions related to cognitive behavioral therapy, where each content session comprises at least one of an audio segment, a video segment, an interactive multimedia module, or a question.

Response-based session selection and session customization

Determining, using the first set of responses, a first content session of the program of content to be presented; receiving a second set of responses; and determining a customization for the first content session using at least one of the first set of responses or the second set of responses.

Score-and-driver-based ordering and scheduling of content sessions

Determining an order and a schedule for presentation of the series of content sessions based on the set of scores and the set of drivers associated with the series of content sessions.

Situational-context presentation using location, health, and sensor data

Determining a situational context indicating user contextual information based on location data, health data and sensor data derived from the computing device and determining a presentation for the program of content based on the situational context.

Context-layer rendering that modifies appearance

Transmitting the presentation for the program of content and the customization for the first content session to the computing device, where the computing device renders the presentation in a context layer of the application, and the context layer modifies an appearance of the first content session.

Overall, the claim coverage centers on deriving CBT-related content-session selection, customization, and presentation from query responses. It ties computed scores to driver factors underlying psychological issues, uses those drivers to build and schedule a program of content with audio, video, interactive multimedia module, or question components, and renders customized presentations in a context layer that modifies appearance based on situational context from location, health, and sensor data.
