Embodiments of the present disclose provide a contact information presentation method, a contact information determining method, and a related device. The method includes: obtaining an icon of a contact, where the icon of the contact includes an identifier of the contact and a feature icon of the contact, the feature icon of the contact is determined according to feature information of the contact, and the feature information of the contact includes at least one of social text information of the contact or measurement data of the contact; and presenting the icon of the contact on a contact screen. According to the foregoing technical solutions, when user equipment presents a contact screen, an icon of a contact presented on the contact screen can reflect a feature of the contact.

Described herein are systems, devices, methods, and media for connecting a user for providing emergency assistance based on emergency alerts from triggering devices such as voice or sound triggered emergency alerts. In some cases, the location of the emergency is provided.

In one embodiment, a system provides for end-user control over the automatic recognition of communication situations by detection of unique telecommunication event characteristics and the consequential responses to those situations by invocation of related programmatic responses. The system allows an end user to specify various patterns of telecommunication event characteristics that describe various situational aspects of incoming communications, such as the timing and originator of voice calls, the content of, timing of, and author of chat messages, etc., as well as appropriate sets of programmatic response actions to be performed in response to those communications, such as initiating conference calls, sending chat messages, routing calls to other users, etc. The system monitors incoming communications, matches characteristic patterns to recognize the situations, and then invokes the matching response actions, thereby automating many functions of the communication system that previously would have had to be performed manually.

Described herein are systems, devices, methods, and media for connecting a user for providing emergency assistance based on emergency alerts from triggering devices such as voice or sound triggered emergency alerts. In some cases, the location of the emergency is provided.

Techniques for detecting spam accounts in a system are described. The system may analyze speech characteristics of communication content (e.g., telephone call content, VoIP content, audio messaging, etc.) to determine whether multiple devices or user profiles are associated with overlapping communications. The system may also analyze text transcriptions of communication content to determine whether multiple devices or user profiles are associated with overlapping communications. If so, the system may mitigate, such as throttling service, disabling accounts, and the like.

A system for integrating a telephone system and a computing system is provided. The system includes an interactive voice response (IVR) platform configured to: obtain a computer-readable command based on user input; determine a goal in the web application associated with the computer-readable command; and obtain information indicating a shortest navigation path to the goal, relative to other navigational paths to the goal in the web application. The system includes a cobrowse client configured to receive a document object model (DOM) of a current state of the web application from a cobrowse session for a web server hosting the web application. The IVR platform is configured to, based on the DOM, determine a next navigation action along the shortest navigation path; generate a user prompt based on the next navigation action; and monitor user progress to reach the goal in the web application using one or more updated DOMs

This document is directed to, among other things, communication systems involving networked contact center interfaces. One example method involves presenting a frame on a user interface to present information in a selectable format. Another example method involves using a circuit device to detect selection of a frame as displayed and causing display of further graphical information in an un-selectable format.

A communication system and method for displaying text captions corresponding to voice communications between an assisted user's mobile wireless device and a separate hearing user's device includes at least one communication component configured to enable the appliance to communicate with a relay, a display, and a processor operably coupled to the at least one communication component and the display. The processor is configured to enable the assisted user to establish an association between the appliance and the mobile device, receive text originating at the relay, the text corresponding to a transcript of the hearing user's voice signal originating at the hearing user's device, and cause text captions corresponding to the received text to be displayed on the display.

The present disclosure is directed to a method and system for routing communications. A plurality of communications-enabled devices are coupled to a communications network. Each communications-enabled device has a device identifier. A user-programmable database associates each of a plurality of user identifiers with a device identifier. A router circuit is coupled to the communications network through a portal communication device having a portal identifier. A user designates a destination user identifier when making a communication. The router circuit switches the call, directing the call to a destination device identifier responsive to the user-programmable database association between the destination user identifier and a device identifier. According to certain aspects, communications are directed to users and are routed to associated equipment, a user identifier serving as a virtual extension number. Users remotely program the database to direct their communications to communications-enabled devices at various destinations.

A method for automatically generating a semantic contextual message is provided. The method includes: prompting a user to grant access to a plurality of data sources of the user and to a plurality of contacts of the user; prompting the user to set a preference for each contact listing which of the data sources are shareable with the corresponding contact; monitoring a network for an incoming communication from a caller to the user, and determining whether the user is available to receive the incoming communication; identifying one of the contacts associated with the incoming communication, collecting data from the data sources listed by the preference of the identified one contact, and generating a semantic contextual message based on the collected data, when it is determined that the user is not available; and outputting the semantic contextual message across the network to the caller.
