A computer method, system, and device of training an empathy model for detecting a type of query, the method including defining an intent for detecting closed ended queries, providing a plurality of queries that are closed ended queries to a machine learning model generator, said plurality of queries comprising training data, providing a plurality of corresponding labels identifying the plurality of queries as closed ended queries, and generating a model that classifies closed ended queries as a function of the training data.

Machine learning query session enhancement

A computer implemented method, system, and device include providing a series of queries to a user via a client query device, sending queries from the series of queries via the client query device to an information source client, receiving information from an information source via the information source client, determining a proportion of queries to information, and generating a query communication as a function of the proportion of queries to information.

Query and information meter for query session

Disclosed herein is a system and method for optimizing a developer's ability to find and navigate relevant documents, relationships, and other information related to an identifier in the code they are developing. An inline viewport is presented to the user in response to the user selecting an identifier in the code whereby the user is able to see relevant information related to the identifier in a spatially consistent location with the code they are investigating. Further, the developer has the ability to make changes to the code in the viewport without leaving the current editor.

Inline display and preview of related information for elements in a document

Disclosed herein is a system and method for optimizing a developer's ability to find and navigate relevant documents, relationships, and other information related to an identifier in the code they are developing. An inline viewport is presented to the user in response to the user selecting an identifier in the code whereby the user is able to see relevant information related to the identifier in a spatially consistent location with the code they are investigating. The developer further has the ability to cascade the viewports such that multiple levels of depth of relationships can be viewed in the viewport.

Cascading inline display and preview of related information for elements in a document

An inline view port is presented to a user in response to the user selecting an identifier in the code whereby the user is able to see relevant information related to the identifier in a spatially consistent location with the code that is being investigated. The user further has the ability to dive further into portions of the viewport document without having to leave the current editor, drive into additionally relevant portions of code through the viewport, and cascade the viewports such that multiple levels of depth of relationships can be viewed in the viewport.

Multi-faceted relationship hubs can support browsing an extensible set of relationship types from within a single tool window. A user can switch between relationship types within a single tool window without disrupting user flow by having to change context in a plurality of tool windows. Multiple instances of relationship hubs can be created. Browsing navigation history can be stored, allowing a user to maintain and reacquire relationship contexts. A user can preview the content of one or more files without opening the file.

Multi-faceted relationship hubs

Files supporting a development activity in an IDE are previewed and are not added to a collection of files in a working set for the development activity. A previewed file is represented by a single preview tab displayed on the user interface. The content of a previewed file can be displayed in a preview display portion of a user interface. The preview tab can be stylistically distinct from a durable tab and can identify the current previewed file. A previewed file can be promoted to a durable file. A promoted previewed file is added to the working set for the development activity.
