Apparatus, system, and method of assisting information sharing, and recording medium
A system for assisting sharing of information includes circuitry to: input a plurality of sentences each representing a statement made by one of a plurality of users, the sentence being generated by speaking or writing during a meeting or by extracting from at least one of meeting data, email data, electronic file data, and chat data at any time; determine a statement type of the statement represented by each one of the plurality of sentences, the statement type being one of a plurality of statement types previously determined; select, from among the plurality of sentences being input, one or more sentences each representing a statement of a specific statement type of the plurality of types; and output a list of the selected one or more sentences as key statements of the plurality of sentences.
1. A system, comprising:
circuitry configured to
receive communication data of a plurality of users;
calculate, using the received communication data, a relationship strength between at least a first user and a second user of the plurality of users; and
cause a display to display a communication diagram, the communication diagram illustrating the calculated relationship strength between the first user and the second user, the calculated relationship strength between the first user and the second user being expressed as a thickness of a line displayed between a displayed representation of the first user and a displayed representation of the second user.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to calculate the relationship strength between the first user and the second user based on a number of communications that have been made between the first user and the second user within a predetermined time period.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to calculate the relationship strength using the received communication data, which includes chat data.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to calculate the relationship strength using the received communication data, which includes email data.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first user and the second user are members of a team, and the circuitry is further configured to cause the display to display a graphical indicator, the graphical indicator indicating that the first and second users are members of the team.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to cause the display to display a graphical interface, and in response to selection of an item of the graphical interface, display the communication diagram.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to cause the display to display an indication of a team to which at least two of the plurality of users, other than the first and second users, belong, and display an indication of a relationship strength between the first user and the team.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to calculate the relationship strength at different times, so that the communication diagram changes over time.
9. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
the display; and
a memory to store the received communication data.
10. A method, comprising:
receiving communication data of a plurality of users;
calculating, using the received communication data, a relationship strength between at least a first user and a second user of the plurality of users; and
causing a display to display a communication diagram, the communication diagram illustrating the calculated relationship strength between the first user and the second user, the calculated relationship strength between the first user and the second user being expressed as a thickness of a line displayed between a displayed representation of the first user and a displayed representation of the second user.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the calculating step further comprises calculating the relationship strength between the first user and the second user based on a number of communications that have been made between the first user and the second user within a predetermined time period.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the calculating step further comprises calculating the relationship strength using the received communication data, which includes chat data.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein calculating step further comprises calculating the relationship strength using the received communication data, which includes email data.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first user and the second user are members of a team, and the method further comprises causing the display to display a graphical indicator, the graphical indicator indicating that the first and second users are members of the team.
15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising causing the display to display a graphical interface, and in response to selection of an item of the graphical interface, display the communication diagram.
16. The method of claim 10 , further comprising causing the display to display an indication of a team to which at least two of the plurality of users, other than the first and second users, belong, and display an indication of a relationship strength between the first user and the team.
17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the calculating step further comprises calculating the relationship strength at different times, so that the communication diagram changes over time.
18. The method of claim 10 , further comprising storing the received communication data.
19. An apparatus, comprising:
circuitry configured to
receive communication data of a plurality of users;
calculate, using the received communication data, a relationship strength between at least a first user and a second user of the plurality of users; and
generate a communication diagram, the communication diagram illustrating the calculated relationship strength between the first user and the second user, the calculated relationship strength between the first user and the second user being expressed as a thickness of a line displayed between a displayed representation of the first user and a displayed representation of the second user.
20. The apparatus of claim 19 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to calculate the relationship strength between the first user and the second user based on a number of communications that have been made between the first user and the second user within a predetermined time period.
